Glad to see Marcos win and Busch get knocked out of the way on that restart.
Looked more like he just got into turn 1 way too hot. Either way I was glad the "shrub" didn't get the win Monday! I don't hate the guy, I just don't want to see him win. Don't know if that makes sense, lol.   |

Kyle is a punk. I hope he never wins anything ever again. And, I don't like his brother either.

In other news, Fox Sports is reporting that Danica will likely run a full Nationwide schedule in 2012, with limited Cup appearances. The rumored plan is to then switch to full time Cup racing in 2013 for Stewart-Haas. Should be interesting watching her trade paint with the good ol’ boys! With her “in your face” attitude she could make a pretty big splash in NASCAR. I’ve always said they need a couple of hard-driving ladies to liven the sport.

As a casual fan of "cage" racing I agree that a couple of hard driving ladies would liven up NASCAR. Danica Patrict could rise to that level.
However, and respectively, I have strong reservations about the Danica Patrick "brand". The image Danica has chosen (either by default or by design) is not appreciated by many NASCAR fans or potential sponsers into the future. Many fans and corporations flee from the image and such behavior she has exihibited. Going forward into her career I predict she will have some regrets.
At present it seems Danica and Go Daddy have a mutual explotation thing going. But that is now. What about her future?
I fear Danica is painting herself into a corner.

For those that like some of the older racing, I put together a video for the Group C Prototypes from the mid to late 80's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma_QImRrW30 |

So how does everyone like the punishment that Kyle got for speeding? Wish they would take his NASCAR license away for a while. That would really punish him.

Unfortunately a public driving license and Nascar license are two different things. It is up to Nascar to distribute punishment for drivers that relate to their racing in Nascar. |

Congrats to Brad Keselowski on winning at Bristol on Saturday night. That Blue Duece is starting to run like it did when Rusty Wallace was at the wheel! Great race for 2nd between Jeff Gordon and Martin Truex Jr. I think they were side by side for close to 60 laps in the final stages! Also a good race for the Nationwide cars on Friday, Such a close race between Kyle Busch and his teammate Joey Logano at the end! Busch got the win by inches! The win also makes Busch the winningest driver in Nationwide series history.

The three top ladies, Karen, Erica and Melanie qualified very strong at Indy today in their respective classes. I will try and put together a little report in the other thread after I do some double checking to get my info accurate.  Elemination racing is "scheduled" for 9am PDT on ESPN2 tomorrow. |

Looks like Celtic Woman's gonna have to deal with the Nascar crowd on Tuesday. The race in Atlanta has been postponed until Tuesday.

I'm no expert on Atlanta but I doubt this will be a prob.
I'm know to be naive... LOL! But I can see many NASCAR fans and CW fans, not only coexisting well but, becoming good friends.

I'm sure they will. How about the Us Nationals today? Hoping Erica can finally pull through today! |
