Dover Chat

Since it's not up yet, lol

Some burning issues to throw around:
- will we get another surprise winner?
- will the rain stay away to get the full race in?
- will Kyle manage to get all the way through the field after starting at the back?

    Ugh, looks like Kurt has another bad car today...too bad his radio isnt working on the KBnation site as I am sure its gonna be a fun day to listen

    what is up with Gordon being the fan favorite all the time! Cant be...

    Pre-race Kyle was funny, putting himself above the fray. "Concentrating on winning, not off track issues." Trying to make Kev seem immature, did a decent job of it, too.

    They were both entertaining. Kev's just got a great smirk and Kyle taking a different tactic is amusing as well...
