He did it again!
Well, the race was going pretty good, no big wrecks or anything until lap 132. At first it looked as if Earnhardt Jr. may had bump drafted a little too hard with Mike Wallace, which is what Darrell Waltrip keeps going on and on about, but after further review and different angles, Johnson actually made contact with the left rear quarter panel of Mike Wallaces car, starting the whole thing.
So, once again, Johnson causes another wreck, but this time he doesn't take out only a couple of cars, a total of 25 cars were involved and he kept going! It gets pretty aggrivating when your favorite driver keeps getting mixed up in some other idiots messes, four times so far this year, how many more is he going to cause???
Cars involved were: Ryan Newman, Dave Blaney, Scott Riggs, Ricky Rudd, Kasey Kahne, Rusty Wallace, Mark Martin, Mike Bliss, Sterling Marlin, Bobby Labonte, Kyle Busch, Bobby Hamilton Jr., Jeff Green, Boris Said, Scott Wimmer, Brian Vickers, Matt Kenseth, Jason Leffler, Joe Nemechek, Mike Skinner, Casey Mears, Carl Edwards, Johnny Sauter, Kerry Earnhardt and Mike Wallace.
Sorry to all the fans of these drivers, but you know who's to blame, one more time.

Anyone who thinks JJ isn't 100% responsible for BOTH wrecks needs some damn glasses. He ran Mike Wallace up in to the outside car and caused the whole thing according to Mr. Wallace, who I think may have actually known what the hell was going on. All you JJ fans and anti JR fans are just FOS. Watch the damn replay you fools -- JJ is the one who caused the wreck.
Posted by: Gordon Shumway | May 6, 2005 8:15:50 PM
but the one on the back was definately his fault,and then he blamed kevin.so have no remorse for him.the little bastard.
Posted by: Allen | May 6, 2005 11:03:09 AM
I don`t feel the wrecks were any one driver`s fault, as the drivers always say "thats racin!" Blame resticter plates if ya gotta blame somethin. Why can`t anyone realize that the wrecks just happen and quit always tryin to place blame? I`m not a Jimmie fan but I`m feelin kinda sorry for him right now, getting one wreck blamed on you would be bad enough, but both of them!!!!!!!!!

yeah,i have an A in everything except english lol.
Posted by: Allen | May 5, 2005 7:54:38 PM
Nice grammar, Allen. We should take your opinions seriously? You can't even spell "Marty."
Posted by: Kelli | May 5, 2005 12:00:45 PM
I'm a Hendrick (Drive for 5 in '05 go 24!) fan, not really a big 48 fan though... but I must admit, he caused that wreck and lately he has had so little respect for his on track competitors... as for being the new badboy LMAO, he will never be. Look at Busch, fan just hate him, he isn't soemone you love to hate... you just think he's an idiot, and JJ is going down that road too
Posted by: Martin | May 5, 2005 11:52:43 AM
lol,i only get really pissed at hendrick and his fans,everything else i usually dont get mad lol.

Posted by: Tina | May 4, 2005 8:23:07 PM
damn mary smith says johnson is a new bab boy...bull shit,just fuckin bull shit,hes exactly what hendrick and nascar want him to be a fuck up who cant drive or take blame for for pourposely wrecking people...SO FUCK U MARTY SMITH!!!AND GO TO HELL,BITCH!!!with his little hendrick bracelet on.and hes bias???fuckin bull shit.
Posted by: Allen | May 4, 2005 7:15:56 PM
i do sim racing and i know what its like racing with people online at plate tracks,the only reasong someone wreck is cause they get greedy,johnson got greedy.jr said he thought he got greedy on the back stretch wreck and that was probably before he saw the wreck...and FYI sim racing is a SIM of the real thing from car handleing to the way they race,i race the same sim jr and newman does.
Posted by: Allen | May 4, 2005 11:49:38 AM
Jr. couldn't be patient. He made the bump. In the middle.
Blamining somebody else doesn't cut it.
His impatience started the whole thing.
Was Johnson going to move to the middle at that spot in the track intentionally? I don't think so.
Posted by: D | May 4, 2005 8:58:11 AM
First, Congrats to Jeff Gordon and crew on a great win and in ONE piece.
Now, I don't get all the finger pointing here as to WHO caused this big one or that big one over in Busch. I've been to many of the plate races and without going into all the dynamics of a plate track, Jr nor Jimmy or anyone else was the *cause* of the wreck that took out my guy Mark. Again, and this is the last time I say it, 30+ cars going 190+ that close together or bunched up, just the sheer force will get a car squarley in a milla second. So please stop with the blame game, it happend, Jr didn't intend to cause a wreck that cost owners close to 8 million, nor did Jimmy tag anyone to cause it. Thats what we get with Dega and Daytona....I think it's time to rethink this plate racing.
Just put a rommpin engine in a POS car already banged up and go racing.
You all need to be in those cars ON the track before jumping to a knee jerk reaction. :)
Posted by: Melli | May 4, 2005 12:54:53 AM
I'll give all the 2x24 fans the benefit that Jr. may have got Wallace loose, but at least Jr. is a big enough man to admit that he may have been too GREEDY. Come on, everytime the 24 or 2x24 cuases havoc on the track it was "ALWAYS THE OTHER GUY". Hendrick's may have deep pockets to promote their race team, but the fact remains that 24 & 2x24 will always cry and bitch about the other "WRECKLESS" Drivers. 24 and 2x24 can kiss DEI and GIBBS ASS!
Posted by: Aaron | May 3, 2005 6:33:52 PM
the worst thing about jimmie wrecking 30 cars is he actually tried to blam kevin for that one on the back!!just like hhe tried to blame tony at pheonix,just horrible that nascar can take bribes and make it where someone of johnsons skill can actually win,at 80% of the tracks theres hardly any driver skill involved...might as well watch drag racing,street racing,satuday night dirt racing and sim racing,where no one can bribe,get away with wrecking or other shit...just a damn shame what nascar is today...makes what petty,yarboroh,earnhardt,pearson,allison,france Sr and REAL fans did for this sport,all to come crashing down cause money...just a damn shame.
Posted by: Allen | May 3, 2005 3:12:21 PM
And Margie, I had the same reaction to Jr's interview after the wreck. I think he was afraid that people would blame him for the entire thing and so he was trying to play defense. But you're right, he came off like he was trying to tattle on the mysterious "silver and blue car" - please, like he doesn't recognize the #48 by now? He should've kept his mouth shut. As soon as I heard him ask for his PR guy on the radio, I cringed. That was the exact wrong way to handle it. I'm glad he did eventually come around to admitting bumping the #4, but I just shook my head at his earlier comments.
Posted by: Sara | May 3, 2005 9:52:12 AM
Well, actually drivers DO have eyes in the backs of their helmets. They're called spotters. When that first crash happened, I thought the same thing that I think now - it was caused by a number of drivers getting careless just long enough. I think Jr was trying to push both Wallace AND the car in front of Wallace (for those of you who think Jr will never measure up to his old man, I want you to remember this forever). JJ was racing McMurray and very likely had little idea what was going on behind him. Jr getting the #4 loose may have affected the #48, or the #48 could've wiggled because of the way he and McMurray were racing, I don't know. It was, to use that wonderful cliche, "one a' them racin' deals." It's Talladega, folks. The RP advantage that the DEI cars and Jeff Gordon have isn't so much their engines, it's the ice water in their veins. That wreck was caused by the fact that Dale Jr was the only car in that bunch who wasn't wetting his pants at that moment. I for one love RP racing because it requires a different set of skills than a boring old flat 1 1/2 mile cookie-cutter track. I hate that the majority of drivers can't handle that style of racing, but I'm glad that no one was seriously hurt Sunday (on the track that is. Burton's jack-man might have a sore spot for Talladega after this, though!)
By the way, for the umpteenth time, Kathy is not an Earnhardt fan. If you're someone who found this blog through a search or whatever and you've only read this one post, you have no right to accuse Kathy of being biased, etc. And if you did read her entire blog, you'd find that she's as fair as anyone can be. I love how so many fans automatically assume that if someone says anything negative about Jeff or JJ, they're an Earnhardt fan. Folks, despite what the nascar marketing machine would like you to believe, there are in fact other drivers on the track. (And that's coming from a die-hard DEI disciple!)
Posted by: Sara | May 3, 2005 9:42:56 AM
Why does everyone here seem to assume Dale Earnhardt Jr. was bump drafting Mike Wallace?
It's clear that Earnhardt and Johnson both hit Wallace right before The Big One. But maybe Wallace had lifted for some reason? Maybe Johnson was reacting to something in front of him? It looked like from the replays that someone up ahead of Wallace (McMurray, maybe) was getting a little squirrelly.
Just throwing another bone onto the Jr vs. JJ dogpile ...
Posted by: John Newsom | May 2, 2005 2:06:39 PM
well,they didnt have roof flaps then and wernt near as areo dynamic so i say make bigger roof flaps(maybe 3 or 4 flaps) and raise and strengthen the fence and let em go.
Allen you can say this all you want if you can find someone to insure the racetrack, if not then the restrictor plates will stay.
Posted by: any1butDIE | May 2, 2005 1:50:30 PM
yall are saying jr wrecked him when jimmie is trying to squeeze 3 cars into 1 1/2 lanes,im no jr fan and i love to blame wrecks on him(especially at plate tracks),but this was johnsons fault by far cause he either cant drive,spotter didnt tell him he was going 3 wide and had half of talladega on his inside or hes trying to wreck people.johnson was way up there when jeffburton was in the same line way down there,there woulda have been that wreck if johnson wasnt there,he moved up then when he was right there he twitched and fucked up over 10 million bucks worth of cars...and i dont want jimmie to die,i want him to race back in 14th where a driver of his skill should...and my name is ALLEN not alan.im no jr fan and i wont be one so dont say im some piss ass jr fan like u are apiss ass bitch johnson fan...and thanks kathy for having a place here where i can discuss johnsons awful driving with pople,cause ive been banned at nascarnet.com 3 times for it dammit. :)
Posted by: Allen | May 2, 2005 11:59:27 AM
As a Harvick fan, the image of Johnson standing there in Daytona, almost sobbing, demanding that my favorite driver be fired for wrecking him is still very fresh. How much damage has Johnson done since then? I guess Gordon must have shown him how to shave his unibrow from between his crying eyes, but the instruction ended before the topic of racing came up. Biggest whiner on the track.
Posted by: Zygoat29 | May 2, 2005 11:25:21 AM
JR started the melee by charging up three wide to bump draft M. Wallace at the wrong place and time. JJ was basically in front and to the left of the #4 and #8 and had no idea what Jr was doing. (Last time I checked, nobody has eyes in the back of their helmets, so as far as I'm concerned, JJ's contact with the #4 was totally unintentional).
There was a lot going on simutaneously that caused the "big one". While #4's back wheels were all jacked up, thanks to the #8, the #48 was twitching due to close quarters and the draft....it sent JJ up, JR sent the #4 down and around.
JR could have avoided the whole incident by laying off bump drafting in such tight quarters but for somebody that's supposed to be the bump draft king with his enormous knowledge of how to bump draft, he sure as hell didn't show it then.
My problem was JR being interviewed while they were all stopped and still sitting in their cars under the red flag. Usually he's straightforward and honest if he's made a mistake and will admit it, but this time he outright blamed the "silver and blue car" SURPRISE...the exact same colors of the #48...adding a snide comment involving tissues. What a lil bitch he's turned into. Could it be his version of sour grapes??? LMAO!
Congratulations to Jeff Gordon and the #24 team! they spanked the entire field yesterday, offically de-throning DEI as RP wizards.

Ya Tony, it is over in Rantville that the majority of them are Jr. fans. And DON'T YOU DARE say one little thing against him. Your butt with be jumped on and you will be crucified in no time at all. Talk about a bunch of people that think someone can't do any wrong. I am NOT a Jr. hater, I just don't care for the way I have been treated by most of his fans, THEY make me not care for him. It is sad that these people can't be open minded and take ANY criticism at all towards "their man". How sad it is. I take it all the time for the drivers that I like, but don't you dare try to say anything about their driver! Best bet, stay over here with Kathy, it is quite are brutal or "f" word laced.
Posted by: truracinfan | May 2, 2005 9:08:43 AM

Far from it, Jimmy over at Rantville is the Jr. fan, not me. Never have been, never will be.

Posted by: Tony | May 2, 2005 8:21:35 AM
And this is interesting:
NASCAR officials addressed the issue of bump drafting in the pre-race drivers meeting, telling drivers to limit when they do it.
“The bump draft is limited to only where you need to do it on the backstraightaway,” David Hoots, NASCAR’s managing event director said in the meeting. “That’s the only time you should be trying to do it. When you do it going into [turns] 3 and 4, or through the tri-oval in 1 and 2, you’re setting yourself up to have a big problem and you all know what I’m talking about it.”
Rusty Wallace, involved in that first incident, said NASCAR’s stance was not strong enough.
“I don’t think the fellow that delivered the speech to tell them how to not bump draft did do too good,” Wallace said. “He was just kind of nonchalant talking about it in the drivers meeting. I’d been standing up there with a baseball bat talking to them.”
Now you all ask yourself who used the bump draft and where just prior to a 25 car wreck.
And for the record "Jessie" probably has the fairest opinion of what occured. The only way to pin this on any one driver is if your blinded by an overly biased opinion for or against one driver.
Posted by: Marc | May 2, 2005 7:59:17 AM
Well at least it's a little more civil here than over at Rantville. That place is currently infested with just a bit much cussing and over the top blindness. That's coming from a 20 year retired sailor so I KNOW how to and can recognized it when I see it.
A couple notes: Alan: "this guys gonna kill somebody someday.ill be glad when kevin or tony wrecks him bad.ill be waiting ;)"
So what your sayin' is OMG someone gonna get killed or hurt. But, well... if it's JJ that's just fine... Pretty sick attitude there dude. And so is the smilie face added at the end.
Oh and Alan I forgot this part: "the bribary scheme fits in perfectly to whats going on."
Lets add to the "sick" diagnosis just a bit delusional also. SAD, SAD, SAD!
Danial: "Atleast I'll know from now on what to expect from her bitchin and moaning ass."
And there is something wrong with that? It is "her place" or maybe she should conform to exactly what YOU chose for her.
And we all know what to expect from you Danial. A bitchin and moaning ass that is bitching and moaning.
Please.
Posted by: Marc | May 2, 2005 7:33:54 AM
For what it's worth, everyone on NASCAR Victory Lane was in agreement that Johnson was the cause of the first wreck, and I'd expect them to have somewhat of a good idea.
Posted by: Wayne Cramp | May 2, 2005 2:33:22 AM
I've come to realize that this so called Kathy is just a biased Hendrick Motorsports hater. Its as simple as that. Atleast I'll know from now on what to expect from her bitchin and moaning ass.
Posted by: Daniel | May 2, 2005 1:55:56 AM
ok,wtf was johnson doing going 3 wide in 1 1/2 lanes when he had half of talladega down there?hes an idiot,thats why.and congrats to jeff gordon,he desserved it,class of the field all day.
Posted by: Allen | May 2, 2005 1:16:00 AM
And here I thought you were ACTUALLY going to "praise" a Hendrick driver for winning! Sheesh. WIth a misleading title of "He did it again!" I thought you were referring to the fact that Jeff Gordon just won his FOURTH out of the last FIVE restrictor plate races. But no. You were accusing JJ of causing the big wreck. Well, Kathy, I'm sorry but I disagree. That wreck was not caused by JUST JJ. It was between JJ, Mike Wallace being in the middle, and Jr. not being able to back off quick enough, AND the fact that it was a six-pack of cars that it happened in. SEVERAL factors led to that wreck, it wasn't JUST JJ.
From what I saw on the numerous replays: Just as JJ drifts up the track a few inches, Jr bumps Wallace a bit too hard and causes Wallace to fish tail. Wallace's nose turns down and makes contact with JJ as he drifts up that little bit. That contact turned Wallace and caused JJ to turn into M. Waltrip(?), but those two keep their cars going straight while the wreck happens behind them. It was several things that caused that wreck Kathy, you can't blame that one completely on JJ. You also can't completely blame Jr. It was just one of those things that just happened all at once.
Posted by: Jessie | May 2, 2005 1:04:46 AM

Posted by: Allen | May 1, 2005 11:51:16 PM
Yeah take the plates off so that a car can go flying into the stands and take out 500 spectators, that would be great for public relations. Have you ever seen the tape of Bobby Allison's car at Talladega. If you haven't he was doing 210 and he got hit from behind and his car went airborne and only the fence stopped it from going into the stands and making the race Bloody Sunday. Anything Tony Stewart suggests you can just dismiss, this is the guy who punches photographers for fun.
Posted by: George | May 1, 2005 11:46:06 PM
The real problem is the plates, take them off, and let them race, change the aero package for the plate tracks, hell they have to build special cars anyway, so give them back their horsepower, and let them race. Tony said today, he would rather race at 230+ mph than with plates. The only person I have heard say they like the plates, is Jimmy Spencer, and you see where he is, sitting in front of a camera running his mouth

Hey Tru,
I call it like it see it and besides I said cnograts to the #24 team.
Posted by: Jon | May 1, 2005 11:26:41 PM
"It was definitely a good race going on," said Kyle Busch, who was one of three cars that didn't make it back to the track after the wreck. "I kind of hung back."
Busch thought that Johnson drifted too high the track, but like most drivers, he had to watch the wreck via a TV replay. No one could see through the massive smoke generated by the spinning cars.
"It looked like the 48 (Johnson) squeezed the 4 (Mike Wallace) up into towards the fence," Busch said. "The 8 (Dale Earnhardt Jr.) was behind him, nowhere to go thats from kyle busch at nascar.com
and that his teammate saying its his fault.but i still dont like him cause he drives for hendrick.

Posted by: Kim | May 1, 2005 10:35:12 PM
damn,were talking about johnson fucking up 30 damn cars,not jeff gordon winning.and when jef wins,he deserves to...the worst parts about the wrecks is the bias commentaters saying jimmie didnt do anything wrong when he tried to go 3 wide in 1 1/2 lanes,and dont tell me that GREAT hendrick spotter didnt tell him he on the inside 3 wide,i mean,come on!!!why didnt they talk to jeff burton about the wreck since he had THE best veiw,cause he woulda said dickie dickson came up and caused it!!!hendrick bribed clinton in 97 to stay outta jail and if he can bribe clinton,he can bribe nascar to /let his cars cheat and get away with cheating and wrecking people AND passing peeps under caution,like when the caution came out sometime in the later part of the race and kevin was ahead of jimmie but they put jimmie in 9th instead of kevin.the bribary scheme fits in perfectly to whats going on,and that poor accedent that happend to that dammed plane last year was gods punishment for is bad deeds,.and too bad all HMS wasnt on that god for saken plane and died.
Posted by: Allen | May 1, 2005 10:30:45 PM
George....you moron.....I have no problem with Jeff winning today....he had the best car...he should have won.....but dont get real cocky about this....Gordon has had loosing streaks before....he may very well win this next championship.....but remember one thing....DW was strong b4 the 3 came along.....Jeffie is a big dog now....but just like Sr...he will have his bad yrs...brag on him now...(and I will join you in saying he is on a roll)....but he wont be there long....and as much as you hate to admit this....he is close and will probably surpass SR in the win columns....but 4 championships is a long way from 7.....so brag on your boy...but keep it real....only 2 folks have accomplished the magic number of 7.....and guess what????? your boy aint there....and by the way.....Earnhardt died....we have JR to support....when Jeffie is retired....who you got then? Oh yeah...you got Insurance boy.....hmmmmmm...how many busch championships DOES he have anyway.....good luck in the future.....oh and by the way....you are right....I do hate it anytime GOrdon or any other Hendrick boy wins.....I think I will go knit me another # 8 sweater now....they tend to sale better than the 24s I have done!
Posted by: billy | May 1, 2005 10:01:04 PM
Jon -
Should have known you be on there spewing your venom! IF Jr. was not involved WHY were the 4 car's BACK WHEELS COMPLETELY OFF THE GROUND???? And how did someone BESIDE the 4 turn him, from behind, into the wall.
I have the race taped and will be happy to send it to you so you can see for yourself that the 4's wheels were completely off the ground.Funny HOW MOST OF THE MEDIA ONLINE and ALL the shows that have been on tonight say that he was involved. Guess they don't wear bud colored glasses that prevent them from seeing ANYTHING that the 8 does that isn't perfect!!
Posted by: truracinfan | May 1, 2005 10:00:17 PM
Whats the point in Bump Drafting when the guy has no place to go. Looked to me like Jr. shoved wallace into Johnson as he came up the track. Bump Drafting a guy into the lead is one thing, doing it in 4 wide traffic is another!!!!
Posted by: Jeff | May 1, 2005 9:56:34 PM
FUNNY how everyone gets on here and bitches about JJ this and the 24 that and calls them "whiney assed babies" Well, guys take a look at YOURSELVES today WHINING about Johnson. How does that make YOU ALL any different that the so called whiney assed babies in the 24 and 48? ALL I am seeing on here is a bunch on WHINING!!!
Looks pretty hypocritical to me!!
Posted by: truracinfan | May 1, 2005 9:52:51 PM
Billy, Dale Sr. is turning over in his grave right now, you know why? 2 days after "Earnhardt day" Jeff Gordon went to his track and beat 2 of his sons easily, your just one of those fanatic Gordon haters that gets irritated every time Jeff wins. Will I suggest you get used to it because DEI is going to stink and Jeff is going to be on it for the rest of this year so maybe you should take up kniting or something. I wish I could have been there at Talladega today to see the disappointment that Bob described. DEI fans hope you enjoyed the restrictor plate street, cause its gone now!!!!!!
Posted by: George | May 1, 2005 9:48:11 PM
They way i saw and this is IMO but Jr bump drafted Mike. Then JJ went up into Mike who got that good push from JJ. SO basically it was a little bit of Jr's fault and a whole lot more of JJ's fault. He took out alot of good cars. But what i want to know is how the hell the 20 car did not get into that wreck. He was right in the middle and all of a sudden you see him go down low then all of the cars go down right in front of him. He stops dead and cars are still spinning around him but he gets out of it without any damge. Lucky lucky guy. As for the second weck that was all JJ. He even changed his story like 3 times in his interview afterwards.Where is DW's common dominator thing?? Even Tony was not this bad last year. I mean seriously, JJ took out 30 some cars today. The guy was just driving like an idiot. Kinda like how he has been all season so far.
Posted by: Melissa | May 1, 2005 9:45:33 PM
damn...by reading the comments in these sections on Thats Racin...one would think if it wasnt for JR all would be well in racing....Hendrick would win everything and the golden boy wouldnt have any rivals and all would be peachy keen......here is my opinion....George...you are a fuckin idiot...you sound like CNN reporting the presidential elections....you only see and read what you want to believe....
Don....if you had sense enough to get your head out of your ass, you would know Jr bumping Wallace, had no affect on JJ coming up....for gods sake dude...look at the replay...JJ was wiggling all by his lil lonesome....nobody touched him....
in all honesty....I am a JR fan....but to be honest....I am getting to the point I dont really give a shit....Nascar is becoming Pro-Wrestling on wheels, with its spec cars and politically correct drivers....oh yeah...dont forget the incredibly biased commentators....(Bergren-Great job today Jimmy)Even Jr himself today when talking about the wreck that JJ started, wouldnt say Jimmie or the 48 car started getting loose....he said a blue and silver car....damn...is JR loosing his balls too and falling into the politically correct world of Helton??
Damn....Earnhardt Sr would turn in his grave to see what was going on today.....face it folks....for real racing, with real drivers....its sat. night dirt racing.....those drivers still have attitudes...and guess what?? they can still say SHIT in victory lane!!
Posted by: billy | May 1, 2005 9:25:16 PM
Jr was just bumpdrafting Wallace like everyone else was. It was actually McMurray who got into Johnson who got into Wallace.
Congrats to J. Gordon fans. I hate to admit it but he was on the money. See us Gordonhaters are able to admit defeat. I was glad Jeremy Mayfield finished 4th.
Posted by: Jay | May 1, 2005 9:10:49 PM
Ya know everybody has an opinion...me personally Jr. started the wreck by being to aggressive with M.Wallace. Although it may not have been intentional it is a fact. Anybody can watch the tape and see..if they will admit it. Jimmie was also being aggressive but so was all 42 other drivers. By the way Jr. did admit that he was some at fault because he got to GREEDY! If Jr. can admit it...come on guys!
It doesn't always have to be HMS fault!
Posted by: Kim | May 1, 2005 8:52:51 PM
Junior nudged Wallace.
The wreck happened because Johnson squeezed Wallace into Riggs.
Couldn't stick around to see HOW JJ caused the last wreck. Just glad he took himself out this time.
What's that for the season? 4-5 wrecks, and he only got caught up once?
HMS is sure keeping the other shops busy this season - because they keep wrecking everybody.
Maybe someone should call for JJ to be fired.
What a putz.
Posted by: BARman | May 1, 2005 8:22:29 PM
I was at the race today and I just have to say wow. The best part was seeing the disappointment on the faces of those Jr. fans. Priceless. You could just tell all of them were thinking I spent hundreds of dollars for this? That made up for the over priced food and drunk people all around me.
