Who is around to watch this lovely rain delay??

Are we taking an over/under on whether or not we will race tonight or Sunday?

I'm heading to In-n-Out for dinner while they try to dry the track....anyone want a double double??

=)

Happy Birthday America, May You Forever Be One Nation Under God

Imagine standing on board a ship. Just a few short miles off the coastline. As you stand on there you are seeing your home being bombarded by the enemy. As you stand there you wonder in the morning, if there will be anything left.

Earnhardt Jr. wins in 'Daddy's' car

A special night in NASCAR regardless of which driver you pull for. Just click on the title.

JUUNNNNIIIOOOOORRRRRR!

So what did you guys think of Junior's post race interview after his big win??

(especially that bit about "I dont know what I would have gotten from Daddy, he was a loose cannon with me...)

Woot! Thank god I picked Harvick in the trifecta so I didn't jinx him!
LOL

Will there be a HANAHAN sighting this weekend at Lanier?

How would I know which one is him?

The Heartbreaker!!!

I think he's taken!

The International Playboy!

The Pink Cowboy hat would be easy to spot in a crowd!LOL

There's just something about this one!♥

(the one on the right, not Kenny!)

or could the falling down drunk Mike Hanner show up?

Hanner should bring some brass knuckles to this neck of the woods!

Just clowning around, Gene. I've got too much time on my hands. I don't have a job!!!

The Trifecta- Hot Fun In The Summertime Edition

Greetings, race fans. We had another exciting finish to last week's Trifecta with JJ bringing home the win for Kristen. Note to Kristen- no more picking drivers to jinx them. That only works when you pick Kurt :o).

In the chase for the coveted Triple Lug Nut trophy, CR still leads the pack with 3 wins. Kristen, Jon, and moseby follow close behind with 2 wins each. Athens, SB, tez, and Hanny each have 1 win. As for Dwindy, well, we still have 18 more Trifectas on this season's schedule, so there's still time.

Some things to note as you make your picks-

Junior Nation will finally see its dream come true as Dale Jr. takes the wheel of the #3 in the Nationwide race. This race will also mark the debut of the new Nationwide COT. Let's hope it doesn't create the same problems as its Cup counterpart.

In Cup, this will be the first restrictor plate race with the spoiler instead of the wing.

Oh yeah, the Beagle will be aboard the winning Cup car.

So, on to the races-

1.) The NASCAR Nationwide Series race from Daytona, Friday July 2; green flag drops at 8:19pm ET (entry list)

2.) The NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race from Daytona, Saturday July 3; green flag drops at 7:49pm ET (entry list)

3.) The IRL race from Watkins Glen, Sunday July 4; green flag drops at 3:55pm ET (entry list)

So, there you go. Three up, three down. Everyone have a safe and Happy 4th. We are busy preparing for the neighbor's semi-annual war on trash. Maybe this will be the year that they finally launch the dumpster into orbit.

(One other thing, Tez won't be around this week, but he did send me picks via Facebook. He will start the race last.)

New Tire for Daytona....

Wonder if Smoke will complain about these?? LOL

Daytona 500 2011

Hey Race Fans!

Looks like I'll be going to the 2011 Daytona 500 next Feb!! I am not sure I can get creds but I'll slum it in the stands for this one... =)

I will be going with friends of my family who live in Daytona Beach and who are "rookie" race fans. So I have a free place to stay at least. Probably they will be getting 2 day tickets for Sat/Sun only.

If you are interested in an Lugnuts meet up at the race let me know and I'll include you on the planning emails so we can all sit together etc.

I've got Dwindy and Gene on the interested list already - any other takers??

HOT OR NOT - LOUD AT LOUDEN

GREETINGS FROM SW OKLAHOMA:

GO, GO, GAMECOCKS!

Just a short post here to rep the 843. USC (the real one) vs UCLA in the College World Series. Best of three series starts tonight in Omaha. The Bruins have an ace pitching staff, and they're all lined up with a killer pitcher to start each game. While the Gamecocks have had to burn through their rotation just to make it to the championship round.

UCLA is the all-time leader in NCAA titles, with 106 in 17 different sports. Please join me in cheering on the University of South Carolina as we deny the Bruins their first one in baseball!

GAME..... COCKS!
