Another “Women In Racing” First 2008-05-01 10:52:00 My crystal ball predictions are slowly but surely coming true. Women
are starting to dominate the race world.
Last week Danica Patrick was the first woman to win in Indy car racing. This week its Ashley Force paving the way for women with her first win for a woman in Funny Car.
For those that don’t know Funny Car, [...] Read more:Racing

Tony and Gibbs: Two Peas In A Pod? 2008-05-01 09:58:07 I haven’t had a chance to address this yet, mainly because I am the biggest slacker I know, but at least I got it out there in the open before we took this relationship any further.
First off, I’m back to working out. Not like a “Carl Edwards – I’m going to work out until I [...]
Speed Demon 2008-04-30 09:34:06 Here’s a little experiment for you: Drive down the road and count how many people have race car number stickers stuck to their car…or in my case in my town…stuck to their truck.
Anyway, if you have a race car sticker on your car…for God sakes…I don’t want to be stuck behind you going 10 mph [...] Read more:Speed
Sprint Cup Series Recap 2008-04-27 21:37:04 He melts in my mouth not in my….nevermind, Kyle Busch wins at Talladega!1 Woo! I do have to ask though, was it really necesary to celebrate your win with a burnout when you won on technicality?
Like my local radio DJ’s said this morning, there should be some kind of rule that if your burnout produced [...] Read more:Sprint

Nationwide Series Recap 2008-04-26 18:50:30 So the NNS recap will probably not be as long as I wanted it to be, but after all, I am not a professional writer and I just write recaps for posterity reasons. I am going out dancing tonight and what better things to follow up after watching a great NNS race then with a [...] Read more:Recap

Friday Night Track Lights 2008-04-25 22:15:03 I have some good news, and some bad news.
Trying to look like Dr. Evil’s wife?
Good News: For the first time in a long time, I’m in a great mood. The boyfriend left the house to go fishing for the night and I get to sit at home in front of my real love, my laptop, [...] Read more:Friday

Rumor Mongrel 2008-04-22 20:51:18 I am very eclectic with my tastes in music. For the most part I like to listen to the same Top 40 radio station when I’m at work. I do however call my Monday’s “Country Day” because I tune into the local country station for their Monday show features. One is a feature for the [...] Read more:Rumor
Empowerment for Women in Racing 2008-04-21 13:25:43 I have to personally admit, I do not watch much race series past NASCAR, but for the empowerment of women everywhere I must report that we have a stronger hope for women in the racing world.
Danica Patrick won her first Indy race in the Japan 300 this past weekend. This is a first victory for [...] Read more:Women

Teenybopper for Tony 2008-04-20 12:52:51 It’s kind of bad when your father, who has no interest or desire to watch a race asks you if you’ve seen the new Tony Stewart Armor All Commercial. Does that mean I am slacking? Or is my father sparking a curious interest in racing and wants to remain in the closet? Hhhhmmm…
There was no [...]
Oopsie! 2008-04-07 07:43:51 I try not to believe in karma...but I think my brunette ass had to of been a blonde in a past life.
Nationwide Series Recap; Richmond 2008-05-02 23:33:48 I don’t know how the senior and long-time NASCAR fans feel about it, but I would love to see NNS race without any NSCS drivers in it. Why do I say that?
Here are this season’s NNS winners on the first 10 races:1
Daytona: Tony Stewart
Fontana: Tony Stewart
Las Vegas: Mark Martin
Atlanta: Matt Kenseth
Bristol: Clint Bowyer
Nashville: Scott Wimmer

Sprint Cup Series (Late) Recap; Richmond 2008-05-06 07:24:52 So this is a few days late, let’s just run with the fact that I was so irritated after watching the Richmond
race Saturday night that I needed a few days to cool off. The truth is, I was busy with family outings for the rest of the weekend and they don’t really like hearing [...] Read more:Sprint

Carl Edwards resigns with Roush…and I change my pants. 2008-05-07 17:45:00 Carl Edwards
was one of the” free agent” names along with more than a few others including Tony Stewart and Ryan Newman that were up in the air about a contract renewal.
Take Carl Edwards off of that list because he has resigned with Roush Fenway Racing. After all of the rumored offers being thrown his [...]

Power Kitten Rankings 2008-05-08 10:00:34 So I had always been curious as to what “Power Rankings
” were. The rankings were always different than the point’s standings and I always read about it on news articles and wondered how they ranked the drivers. With a little heart-filled research, I found out that it was basically a ranking by a bunch of [...] Read more:Kitten

Nationwide Series Recap; Darlington 2008-05-10 19:27:34 Out of all the drivers in NNS, I would never imagine that Carl Edwards would be the first to wreck his car into the garage, much less, wreck his car three laps into the race.
To make things worse, one of my many favorite NNS full-time drivers, Brad Keselowski hit the wall after nine laps into the race.

Sprint Cup Series Recap; Darlington 2008-05-12 08:35:31 Since the Darlington race was honestly not as exciting and controversial as last week’s Richmond’s race I will do my review in photos.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. was rockin’ the retro Mountain Dew paint scheme on his car, which is currently sitting happily on my computer desktop1:
This happened two laps into the race:
Nnnnnnooooooooo! I couldn’t tell if [...] Read more:Sprint

All-Star Pre-Race Activites 2008-05-16 08:07:45 Nobody might not care, but it turns out I am going to Eldora Speedway next month, I am going to eBay the tickets to the sold out event, and I am going to eBay it until my wallet busts. I am currently a winning bidder on a pair of tickets. *squee*

Anyway, did anyone watch the [...]
