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:First

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?

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.

Friday Night Track Lights 2008-04-25 22:15:03 I have some good news, and some bad news.

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:Racing

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:Recap

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

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:

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*

All-Star Race Recap 2008-05-19 08:22:47 So here it is, Monday morning and it’s been two days since the All-Star race. I’ve completely slacked on updates but it’s hard to get rid of writer’s block when you hear this all weekend,
“I’m hungry…” from my man’s 6 year old that I was babysitting all day Saturday.
“Where is [insert item here]?” from my [...] Read more:Recap
Fuel For The Fire 2008-05-20 14:04:42 For those of you that think it’s still cool to boo Kyle Busch might need a reality check.
Yeah, I will be the first to admit, I was pissed that he “wrecked out” Dale Jr. for a win that would of untimalty belonged to Jr. in the end a few weeks back. For almost a week [...]
The Friday Fast 5 2008-05-23 13:31:52 Coca-Cola 600
1. Do you think this weekend’s race will be more exciting than the All-Star race?
I hope so! Kyle Busch is the pole smoker again, so it could most likely end up being “The Kyle Busch Show” like it was in the first half of the All-Star Race last week pre-engine failure.

Pocono 500 Race Recaps 2008-06-09 22:58:15 Third time is a charm for Kasey Kahne (if you’re counting the All-Star Race) If you’re not counting it as three races then two in a row is still great. Those All-State Girls must have fed him a large dose of something good.
Kyle Busch finished 43rd after wrecking himself twice. The first time, he probably [...]
