Hey it was a really exciting weekend in Las Vegas this weekend for NASCAR. New Track issues, tempers flaring, winners and losers. How did your Driver do? I will tell you how mine did later ......

You are kidding! No one wants my man??? I am a 20 fan all the way. Tony Stewart is an amazing driver and I love his spunk! I guess I have always been into the bad boys. LOL!

Oh I am so proud of you for being able to say that outloud. YES he is a good driver. But a lousy person!!! (but that is my opinion). Thanks for stopping in.

Oh I like Mark Martin - he's a nice guy. He does well, and seems grateful to still be able to participate since he was going to retire this past season.

Yuck! I don't care for Stewart too much. I don't really know why. Him and Mark Martin are two that I just don't like.

Didn't Dale Jr. get a pit penalty? Anyway, my favorite is Kasey Kahne. He crashed towards the end so didn't finish the race. Also like Bobby Labonte who finished 13th.

yeah what he said! LOL!. So your fav might be Jr. huh? Well ... as you can tell from my other comments I am not a Jr. Fan, but he sure has a good following. I did Like Dale Sr. I thought he was a great racer. He built quite a Dynasty didn't he.

Yep but the restart was outside of 10 laps and the penalty was tail end of the line he only gained two spots after the restart

oh yeah baby!!! good choice. I think he is so good, not to mention easy on the eyes. He speaks well also of the sport and the other drivers. It's nice to see someone represent the sport that is well spoken.

I loathe nascar, but have a son who adores it! His favorite is number 8! He even has people tell him that he looks like his favorite nascar driver! I went to a race once back in my college days. It was soooo loud! My ears rang for days afterward! Everyone around me was so drunk...they were throwing up everywhere. I sure hope my son gets to a race sometime!

I hope you give it another go sometime. It has changed. Not that NASCAR is "high-brow" by any means, but it has a more family feel to it now. There are areas at most tracks where you can sit and drinking is not allowed. We always bring ear protection. There are always a few butt-heads, but for the most part, it is a good time.

Ohhhhhh! No fair! You're just waiting to tell us just so you can sit back all smug! (just kidding LOL). I LOVE Nascar. It's Jeff Gordon all the way baby!! I was doing the Snoopy Dance when he came in 2nd today! It would've been better to see him win, but at least Jimmie's his teammate, so it's not quite so bad.

if he finished 11th he got some points and that's what it's all about at the end. I am curious now I will have to go see who came in 11th ! LOL Thanks for your input

Not me, but one of my friends is a fanatic. I don't even bother to call her when the races are on . Her daughter is just as bad. Her bedroom is black and red. She has Dale Earnhart Jr. all over place. Swears she is going to marry him some day. I all I know about NASCAR is that Dale has very thin lips. lol.
