Discuss.

I am pissed at NASCAR for starting the race so late. Of course it is raining now. I wish they would have stayed at Rockingham instead of giving California 2 races.

AMEN.

I live 20min. from Rockingham and I'll never forgive NASCAR for what they did, even if they had good reason.
I'm glad to see Rockingham get some races back again. ARCA and USAR raced there last year. Joey Logano dominated the ARCA race there last year.

I also think they should take a race away from Pocono and give that race to Kentucky. Pocono is the most boring track in NASCAR. They have to throw their "debris" cautions to get it interesting for a few laps there.

It's all about the $$$ and the TV contracts now, boys. As are most sports today.

Corporate this and corporate that. The tracks are mostly cookie cutter types and owned by just a few "companies". Gone are the days of those smaller, more exciting tracks. They didn't bring in enough cash for the suits, fans be damned.

This race has been pretty boring also so far.

rain rain rain. flipping between the race, B10 B-ball, and a HOCKEY game. Good lord, I actually watched a little bit of hockey...

I miss football season already.

Wednesday is the first Spring Training games!!

elderboy02 · 02-22-2009, 06:35 PM

Jimmie Johnson is pure domination.

MedicCook · 02-22-2009, 06:44 PM

Some nice green flag pit stops.

Starscream · 02-22-2009, 06:48 PM

Just need to get Jr. up there now.

elderboy02 · 02-22-2009, 06:52 PM

Lets go Gordon!

Starscream · 02-22-2009, 06:53 PM

I'd like jr or Waltrip up front, but for the fantasy contest I'm pulling for Jimmy J today.

I have Johnson & Jr. in one of my leagues.

Starscream · 02-22-2009, 07:12 PM

Logono's not one of my picks today, but after watching him win at the Rock last year, I'm pulling for him to do some good things this year.

I am still having trouble keeping up with all the driver changes this year.

elderboy02 · 02-22-2009, 07:22 PM

Crap, more freaking rain. It is not raining in Rockingham right now.

ROFL! It rained this morning, but clear as a bell since 10:00 a.m. Race would have started at 1:00 here.

Hopefully it will be a short caution.

The funny thing is if you go to Nascar's home page and click on forecast, it says that is it mostly cloudy. They don't mention anything about rain
