Looking forward to Danica running full time in the Cup series so DanicaFan can take over full time of starting Cup race threads.
Let's see how the Lady in Green handles the Lady in Black with the Cup crowd. It's BO time. |

I couldn't imagine what the races would be called if NASCAR raced in the UK..
''And the Greggs the Bakers 400 from Hednesford Hills Speedway is green!'' |

"She" will be in the wall by 20 laps, not learning from her errors the day before.

Caution free until almost half way for the Southern 500....first caution for debris.
Princess is 3 laps down. Decent. |

Yes but could anyone on Fox actually see the on track action? Kept raving about how Danica was pulling away from the others as JPM was getting the feel for her line and then passed her, no problem with her driving but enough with how great it is she's in nascar.

I was just flipping through the channels and happened to catch them talking after they said she was laps down to JPM, too lazy to find the remote to watch the ALMS race since I was out all day and missed the start. But there's always a rainy sunday to catch the whole thing since mowing won't work in the rain.

I think NASCAR should set down Newman's fuelman for a few weeks. Not for going after Kurt Busch, but for knocking the NASCAR official around like he did.
I think that there are very basic rules that apply to all sports, and hitting/shoving/throwing officials about is taboo in every league. |

Had to go out with 100 laps to go, Ambrose P25, season turning to poo blah, blah... Then read his tweets, P9, WTF, i was happy again
Do advertisers/sponsors pay for the broadcasters to focus on the same drivers each week? |
