“Me? It’s definitely seeing the #2 Miller Lite car being piloted by Kurt Busch, and the #26 (the car formerly know as #97) Irwin Tools / Crown Royal ride with Jamie McMurray behind the wheel. Hey, I’m kinda old…I excite easily. I’ve got high hopes for my favorite Dale Jarrett. And, it will be interesting [...]
Roush Racing: Driver X
“I caught Roush Racing: Driver X tonight on Discovery Channel. I think it was on last season also, right? So, I guess I’m a little behind the curve. Driver X is ‘American Idol’ for racing. Pick your favorite driver and root along at home as Jack Roush et al searches for the next great driving [...]
Ultimate NASCAR Database Updated
“The Ultimate Fantasy NASCAR Database has just had the results from the 2003 season added to it. This brings the total race data to 108 races (2003 through 2005) that can be twisted and tweaked in many interesting ways. About half of the database queries are functional right now. I think I’ll focus my attention [...]
2006 NASCAR season is heating up
“Though some bloggers kept the race talk going over the short off-season, my thoughts were elsewhere. But, like a campfire that easily fans into flame early the next morning, so is the excitement of the 2006 season heating up my interest once again. The first flare up was seeing Kurt Busch and the Blue Deuce. [...]
New sheet metal & paint
“So what do I do with a loooooonnng weekend with no race? Tear the place apart and make it (hopefully) bigger and better. Actually I blame you (twice), you, you and you for all setting up new sites and/or designs. I’ve been wanting to incorporate more of a website feel into the blog. I’ve been [...]
Race 36 of 36
“Remember back in March, April & May how we were watching race 3, 9 or even 12 of 36? Felt like summer vacation did when I was a kid. When summer vacation was a ‘vacation’, not the short respite today’s kids get. The 2005 NASCAR season was still fresh. Reaching race 36 of 36 seemed [...]
Help: Database testing
“I’m developing a Fantasy NASCAR statistics database. I’m a statistics junkie that loves stats inside out and upside down. My database has the 2004 & 2005 NASCAR Cup statistics thus far. I’m trying to make it easy, intuitive and unique from any other NASCAR database. I don’t have all the different ways I intend to [...]
Kenny Schrader & Little Debbie
“The new #21 that Kenny Schrader will be driving for the Wood brothers is sweet looking. Little Debbie Snacks is coming onboard to sponsor the car for 19 races in 2006. The #21 Ford Fusion will also carry Motorcraft and the U.S. Air Force as rotating primary sponsors during the remaining runs. A sweet ride [...]
NASCAR Thunder 2004
“After a long day on the interstates, highways and rural streets of the Dallas / Fort Worth metroplex, there are few better ways to decompress from rude drivers, bumper-to-bumper traffic and general city mayhem then to wind it up to 190 mph and bang up some sheetmetal. I’m a NASCAR Thunder 2004 fanatic. Amongst everything [...]
Lookout! It’s Todd Bodine
Summary: Word is out that Morgan-McClure Motorsports has said “out with Mike Wallace and in with Todd Bodine” for the final race of the 2005 season. Their actual quote is “Todd is coming off two wins in a row in the Craftsman Truck Series and has the momentum we feel will help our Lucas Oil [...]
