Any good magazines out there??

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:09:58 +0000

I am very new to NASCAR, and it seems to be an amazing sport. I was
wondering, are you any weekly publications that deal strictly with
NASCAR?? And of the ones that may exist, which do y’all recommend??

Thanks alot.

Wow… ‘got to hand it to him… he ran one hell of a race tonight.
I kind of wish I had taped it. I usually flip back and forth w/ Busch
races but I was at a friends house tonight and I was rivited. Man
that fireball was really spectacular. Harvick menacing around up
front after his misfortune really added to the drama tonight. He
seemed to take it well. Damn the cars looked better after Bristol!
It was kind of a shame that 20% under caution but it was a show!

Why is that Gordon is so good??

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:09:01 +0000

Why do some racers always finish at the top, while others do so
poorly.

Why does Gordon seem to be so much better?? Again, I am new, but I
wonder, don’t they all have access to the best equipment?? How are
some teams/drivers so much better? What do they do??

Sauter vs Biffle

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:08:41 +0000

Jay Sauter says his panhard bar broke and sent him into Biffle. If that proves
to be true, even the staunchest atheist will have solid proof there is a God.
Biffle deserved to be taken out. The odds of one of his previous victims having
a mechanical failure of the type that would send a car hard to the right just
as the 60 car was going by are astronomical. The odds are probably more in
favor of Chandra Levy showing up at 7-11 with Elvis and bigfoot.
I’ll bet no one will punt Jay Sauter for a while. I wonder what kind of
penalties will be handed down, and whether it’s more expensive to blatantly
take out another car punch a driver through his window after he just took you
out.

Gordon's chromallusion jinx (?)

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:08:22 +0000

Has Gordon ever finished top 10 with a Chromallusion paint scheme?

He’s run up front with them alright. They never seem to make it to the
finish line in once piece though.

One of you encyclopaedia guys help me out here, what’s his best finish with
chromallusion on board?

Why the fire on Burton's car???

admin — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 00:08:02 +0000

Why did J Burton’s 99 keep having fire coming out of it at his Left
Rear tire?

Typical Bristol

admin — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:08:50 +0000

More tempers than usual this year? A lot of strong words in the Garage.
Looking forward to scanner bites!

Looking at Harvick’s car… I wonder if his new hood contour gave him some
extra downforce up front? Be interesting to know what adjustments they made
after the contact. Guys that ran the BGN race qualified well for the NWC
race and even ran well but not very many finished well. Except Harvick.
Average 1.5 finish for both races, wow!

For that matter Stewart’s car wasn’t exactly "stock" aero by the end, but
then who is at Bristol. Give him one thing though, that was one hell of a
burnout. I still think his sponsor should be Pampers, but he man can drive.

-Russ.
