I like rocks. Especially the ones you can live under with.

Kinda like those electric track cars! My uncle had some of those, and they weren't fun unless I could hit my brother whenever he pulled in front of me.

Anyhow, I'm being forced to watch this at work. :(
Where do you work?
< I had slot cars as a kid. Used to build 1/24 scale models out of tubing and plastic and race on a course At Hagginwood Hobby shop in Sacramento in 1964/65

I don't say where I work. :p But there is a tv here for the news and stuff. At night we flip around and watch other things occassionally. I guess the guy I'm working with tonight is a redneck. *shrug*
Perhaps I should ask what kind of business?

Network security.

There are more than "rednecks" watching NASCAR, or else it wouldn't have the Neilson numbers it has, OR There are an awful lot of renecks.

There are a lot of rednecks.

BTW, are you using that term as a perjorative???

Usually. Rednecks can be all right though. I've got my share of TPT friends.

Huge Martin fan here, been since '89 :)

I think Kahne might have still gotten by Mark if he was put in 3rd (like I think he should have been). MM just struggled a bit on restarts, that last yellow killed his chances.

Anyhow, he broke the top 10 which is good. RIR can be a mess, I just hope his crash avoidance skills are sharp. He runs well there to, I seen him win a Busch race there :)

How about you post what sport you like and we'll take pot shots at it?
Those cars are far from "lil", it's not always going around in a circle, (watkins glen, sonoma) and I daresay you wouldn't say that after attending a race.



from where you sit they are lil, and might as well be.

but just imagine how exciting it would be if all the drivers were fabulous flaming homo types with attitudes, like in wrestling.

That's just wrong. LOL though.

Some of those racetracks hold more peopl;e than some NFL Stadiums, and they're built with private money. Don't see NASCAR begging the citizens to subsidize their activities. I would also "reckon that , statistically speaking, there are some within the teams who are homosexual.

I didn't hear that one on the Internet. It was actually IRL (In Real Life). ;)

I started an Aussie to English dictionary, but lost the beginning in a HD crash or something.

For a minute back in the '70's I lived in a trailer Park. I know explicity where that came from. It's true, sadly.

Okay... big cars going around in a loop, usually oval, driven by guys who don't care that they can't get life insurance if that's their business or hobby.

When you can earn several million dollars simply from endorsements, Life insurance won't be bought from State Farm. You simply pay more than say..... a computer dork sitting at a desk, opining about a life he will never experience.
