Good for him. Penske has said he'd have no problem hiring AJ back. He's even kept in contact with him as AJ was his guest at a recent Indy race.

Hamlin dominates Loudon and did a burnout that John Force would be jealous of.

Eldora 4 crown this past weekend. Check out the top video for the first race, full of awesome passing. The lower video is a hard crash for Kyle Larson. He was cleared by medical but sat out the silver crown race next up. He had qualified P1. This kid is the next great one. He can win in anything.

If ya happen to be home and get Speed channel, Aussie V8 super cars from Sandown Int Motor raceway is being televised again.
I wish NASCAR was a little more like the Australian V8 super car racing. More road courses and sequential shifting.

Gold Coast 600 is in a few weeks. Graham Rahal is in it.
For the first time, all 28 cars had international co-drivers signed up, covering IndyCar racing, Formula 1, GT and Sportscars and interntional touring car competition.

I think NASCAR would be far and away the best if it had chassis with the same reactions as IndyCar's do. Sick of watching cars just drive away from each other in almost every race

R.I.P. Chris Economaki. A great announcer, writer , and gentleman. He was 91.

I really enjoyed the first half of this show with Barry Meguiar and Chris talking about his beginnings and how he was pushed to ABC by Big Bill.

Would be fun to experience.



If you were to attend one Aussie V8 race....Gold Coast 600 (at Surfers Paradise) or thee Bathhurst 1000?
