  12. Kristen, Kristen, Kristen- don't you know by now that Carl will not win? Maybe you could ask him to personally apologize to the Beagle for trash talking her Tony back in 2006(her other idea is to make him sing "Put Down the Duckie") Of course, all apologies and/or musical serenades will have to be video taped so that the Beagle can see them.

    ReplyDelete
  13. The Beagle picks-

    NW- Jacques Villeneuve

    IRL- Helio

    Cup- TONY!!!!!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Just think of my pick as trying to jinx him SB! And didn't I get in enough trouble for you last year!?!? LOL

    Bummer CR! =( There might also be another surprise appearance by ole Hoosier Racer this year too.

  15. Ren's not going to be able to go this year? bummer.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Unfortunately, I dont think Ren is going to make it down - she was trying!

    ReplyDelete
  17. Gee, Tony's press conference at Sonoma this year wasn't nearly as good as last year's. I wonder why? :o)

    ReplyDelete
  18. Tony got loose! 3rd overall so far!

    ReplyDelete
  19. Looks like Carl is going to do it. 5 laps to go. Kristen picked right. Anything could happen though.

  21. Woot!! Jon, Tez, RA6An and I just watched the end of the NW race at Applebee's just outside the track. Everyone made it and are having a blast. Did anyone see boxing Kangaroo flag on Trackside last night? That was Tez! Managed to get Marcos to autograph it for him today...

    I'll do my best to get a blog up asap!

    ReplyDelete
  22. we're hoping to get a group shot some time today given Kristen and RA6AN head back after the race while Jon and I don't.

    The NW race was a blast...although maybe not for Kristen given the rest of us kept going "ooooooo!" when someone went off (which was quite often after that red flag, lol) while she was on the phone, oopsie.

  23. after 2 races-

    Tez 9
    dwindy1 14
    Hanny 18

    SB 27

    jon is hoping that Kevin finishes ahead of Jeffie, and Tez is hoping that both of them finish well behind Marcos.

    ReplyDelete
  24. 10 laps to go and my guess is that Tez is just about to die--

    ReplyDelete
  25. 8 to go and a caution- I sure hope either jon or RA6AN know CPR

    ReplyDelete
  26. Athens-

    Marcos Ambrose was leading the race and was on his way to the win when the caution came out. Then he ended up stalling the car which eventually gave the win to JJ.

  29. No one is infallible, Gene... Let ME tell you! lol

    Congrats to Jon. To the victor go the spoils!

    What are the spoils anyway?

    Thanks SB! Awesome job!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Dang! I was so close and of course it was Gordon that took out Kurt!!!

    Congrats to Jon!

    I can vouch that Tez is alive and well - just stunned and needing a session on the couch. Apparently I was in the background of Marcos' post race interview...??

    Race report coming asap...

    ReplyDelete
  31. $%^&@#!!!!

    Just needed to get that out of my system, lol

    Congrats to Jon for winning, was a fantanstic weekend.

    And, can I just say, big props to all 3 of them for putting up with me today given I have a sore throat, stuffed nose and am all but dead on my feet...I take full responsibility if any of you get that :(

    ReplyDelete
