United.....

Dale Jarrett #88 is my fav driver....Ryan Newman number two.

LVMS is my favorite track followed by Rockingham

Gotta Pull for DJ but I think that Jimmie Johnson might win (sad as well)

I think the new system sucks.

Sadly I think that Jimmy will not get sponsorship although I would donate if we could get enuf together just so he would keep that snot nosed brat in line!!!!!

Ill be going to Las Vegas here in 3 weeks and then to Phoenix in November.


I like Ward Burton alot...so does my wife...when we go to the races I have Ward and Jeff set up on the scanner as a primary channel so I can listen to them....the stuff that comes out of their mouths is absolutely the BEST entertainment on the track!

I still cant get used to Ward driving the NetZero Chevy....doesnt have the same effect as "WAHHHHD BURWWWTON and DE CATAPIWWWA DOSHHHHHHH"....LOL

1. (Tie)Mark Martin and Rusty Wallace (met Rusty in Ft. Worth, just a great guy)

2. TMS

3. Too early to tell, but one of the Young Guns.

4. Worst move since the restrictor plate.

5. Sadly, Yes.

6. TMS and Talladega

Let me throw in a #7. NBC or FOX?

7. FOX

OHHH FOX 100%

NBC's coverage is horrid.....FOX ALL THE WAY

Here is a bit of a story that happened to me the other day.  I have NEVER missed a single episode of Totally NASCAR since its inception.  Unfortunately they dont Re Air the show on Speed any longer...RATZ...well my DIRECTV did not carry the Fox Sports net.

I then decided to go with DishNetwork.....they offered me a sweet deal but would be about 15 bucks more a month....

Well the wife said ask DIRECTV about their offers....well lo and behold DIRECTV does have Fox Sport net and I get it!  They folks at DIRECTV are now installing a new dish and Im getting HDTV as well!!!!

Too bad Daytona wont be in HD...would love to see it.  Now I get my Totally NASCAR and get HDTV....

GOTTA HAVE MY NASCAR!

RPM......

I thought it was pretty funny that your boy Mark Martin was riding around in the "Oscar Mayer Weiner" paint scheme....LOL

From VIAGRA to Weiners....hmmm.....LOL

I like Mark Martin as well.....dont care for Rusty but like Mark.

I think my most hated driver would have to be Kurt Busch.  I cant stand that arrogant little snot nosed brat!  Im glad Mr Excitement punched his lights out...Robby Gordon went up in my book when he said that he'd pay Spencer's fine last year too!  That was PRICELESS!:D

Ummm, Daytona WILL be broadcast in HDTV on NBC. 1st Time ever.

Daytona 500 being offered in HDTV

The Associated Press


The Daytona 500 will be the first auto race to be broadcast in high definition.
The Feb. 15 race is being shown by NBC.

Besides a clearer and sharper picture, director Mike Wells said Thursday the HDTV broadcast will allow viewers to see more cars on the left and right of the screen than they would with standard television.

"It gives you that bigger feel," Wells said. "You feel so much more a part of the event."

The network has no immediate plans to broadcast future races in high definition.

NBC has had success with the Daytona 500 before. The network's broadcast of the 2002 race got a 10.9 rating, the highest ever for start-to-finish coverage.

1) Who is your favorite driver?

Micheal Schumacher
Greg Murphy (V-8 Supercars)


2) What is your favorite track?

Monza
Bathurst 1000


3)  Who will win the Nextel Cup this season?

the what?

4) What do you think of the "Race for the Championship" points change this season?

I'm more interested to see how the one engine for the weeked rule goes..

5) Will "Mr Excitement" Jimmy Spencer find a sponsor for the season?

sounds like an exciting subject

6) Will you be going to any of the races this year?

plans to attend Melbourne GP fell through...but hopefully will get to some V-8 Supercar races (Eastern Creek)..

I never cared for Rusty til I met him. He is the real deal. Only other driver I know that's as friendly in person is Michael Waltrip.

I like Kurt (sorry), he's got talent. My most hated was Steve Park, thankfully he's gone so Kevin Harvick is now at the top of my list.

OMG are you insane man!!!!!

I think Kurt Busch is an arrogant little snot nosed brat...have I said that enough....:lol

I will admit he has the talent....dont get me wrong but the way he handles himself is pitiful.  Especially after the fans brought out the tapes of the in car audio about how he was deliberately going after Jimmy Spencer that sealed the deal....oh well  I dont like him.

Steve Park.....OHHH I FORGOT THAT GUY.....LOL glad he is in the trucks now and out of Winston (freudian slip) uhhh Nextel Cup.

I dont like Gregg Buttfle either...I mean Biffle.  I have never EVER heard Dale Jarrett get so upset with another driver over the radio as I heard in Phoenix this past November.  I also boycotted NBC...well still gotta watch...because DJ came from dead last to 8th position and not ONCE was he mentioned on the coverage.

On the HDTV note......I hope our affilate here broadcasts in HDTV here in Albuquerque....that would be a hoot cuz I am having about 10 guys from my squadron come over for the race.  We go to LVMS and Phoenix every year.....about 10 or so of us all get block seats and have a blast!

Last year at Vegas I didnt miss a lap of racing....MY BLADDER WAS GONNA EXPLODE!  We stuck it out through the thunder, lightning, and the hail and saw qualifying under the lights at LVMS...VERY COOL....Hope they add another race there perhaps at night.  That track has really come into its own over the past 3 years....cant wait to get there.....:aok

I have to admit I like Kevin Harvick.....I "stalked" him in the forum shops at Ceasars last year.....he also was really nice and signed an autograph for my buddies son.  Hes pretty nice.  His temper is humorous at times and he hates Busch so he's ok in my book....good racer as well!

You follow ARCA as well?  I played Black Jack with Deborah Renshaw at the MGM....nice person....wasnt sure 100% why she got booted from the ARCA Daytona race a few days ago and Blount drove for her but I heard it was sponsor problems.....

I could go on and on about NASCAR!
