Rain seems to be following NASCAR
OK...here we go again. Qualifying is currently delayed due to rain...surprise, surprise! At the time of writing this, they are attempting to dry the track, but rain is coming down, obviously lightly.
I swear, with all this rain causing problems NASCAR needs a giant umbrella! I know, not really feasible, but this is getting to be a bit much. It seems like these rain storms are just following them around weekend after weekend. The Nationwide race is in jeopardy tomorrow also with more rain predicted, at least Sunday is suppose to be clear.
One good thing in all of this is that Bristol is one of the easiest tracks to dry because of the concrete and the high banking.
This rain needs to go away and stay away from the tracks, at least on the weekends, although Mother Nature doesn't seem to be agreeing.

Kathy - You almost got your wish with Kevin. Hope you had a Happy Birthday anyway and I wish you many, many more.

DA24JG,
What happened to your Hollywood boy? I know, his tights were to tight. HaHaHaHa
Jr is still kicking their butts on old tires again. Maybe you should pick a new team like RCR.

Sorry to make you work so hard on your special day. Yes, it was the 31 (Burton), my bad! Enjoy your day! lol.

30? I'm guessing you meant 31, no 30 out there.
Posted by: Kathy | Mar 16, 2008 1:53:25 PM
DA24JG,
HaHaHaHaHa, I say Kyle puts Mr Hollywood into the wall today.
Agg,
Crap no!! I was outside with Budlite in hand looking up at that huge rotating hole in the sky. It was kinda like: Hey yall watch this, kind of moment.
Kath,
Happy, Happy B'day. I'm still 29 for the rest of my life.
Jon,
Ooooooooooh that's right, Dorothy and the dog were sucked out of Kansas. Tornado sucked the pavement up. Holy Crap!!!!! That would be some major wind.
DW has no voice. Maybe as the day goes on he can't talk at all.
Posted by: Deb | Mar 16, 2008 1:51:32 PM
Barb: Stick some duct tape under them babies it will hold em'up. Duct tape does everything! Then you can wear that tube top. Go KK!!!!
Posted by: Graceann | Mar 16, 2008 1:49:46 PM
Kathy,
Happy Birthday. Hope you have a wonderful day. Bristol is upon us and my picks for the day are: 99,30,88,18,24, sorry the 29's not in there. If I knew it was your birthday earlier I would have picked him, lol. Good Luck with your Birthday wish!

LOL Kurt, not even tube tops. :P
Posted by: Kathy | Mar 16, 2008 12:53:58 PM
Hey Fan! If you hate it here so much why do you care about the spelling and grammar? I'm sure your sophisticated self can find something more to your liking elsewhere.
I'm glad you're okay, Deb. Dayum, those tornadoes were ugly.
Happy birthday Kathy! I hope you have a great one. I picked Jr to win today but Kev would be fine with me too.
Posted by: Barb G | Mar 16, 2008 12:38:27 PM
Happy B-Day Kathy.. We know you are 24 today:) No you know what I meant with that, and so everyone else had nothing to do with a HMS car..
Posted by: Kurt2 | Mar 16, 2008 12:21:07 PM
Thanks DA2JG. :)
Posted by: Kathy | Mar 16, 2008 12:11:51 PM
f1 still sucks.
Posted by: exile | Mar 16, 2008 12:00:09 PM
Glad to hear Deb is okay.
DJ, you out there ???? Hope you Rock and NC people are good...
Jon and Kahty be careful tommorrow with that weather crap..
BTW I hate rain, but shouldnt complain about that with the stuff you guys are having...
Now.
To be PC and nice..FAN. You must be joking right?
Here is 99.9% good natured.. Most of the time.I think you are reading into "something new" where all the blog gets is "how great and wonferful JG and JJ are" "How wonderful HMS is"..
Kinda like there shit smells like roses..
Thats what most get sick of hearing and being told.You so want to base JG and JJ on "there titles".
(going to be a child real quick guys) To your commment "your drivers dont have the talent in there little finger to JG and JJ"
Well sorry you want to go win for win etc etc. Your 2 drivers couldnt carry "MY DRIVERS" Simpson Racing Shoes with the amount of respect MY driver gets in the garage. Never could happen ...
To my spelling.Guess what it sucks..Makes me feel unique!!!
EN, sounds like you went to Belliago last night ?????
BTW, maybe Dj gets a decent final run, but lets hope he and JPM dont choose to block today:)
Aggie, here you go:
The 2,9,24,88 ,20
F5, cant believe the comment regarding Goodyear not invting your Yota boys to the tire test hasnt ruffled you yet:)
Aggie

Happy Birthday Kathy!
Posted by: DA24JG | Mar 16, 2008 11:57:32 AM
At least it's not raining anymore. I'm hoping Harvick makes it a "Happy" birthday for me, he's my pick for Bristol! (don't ask how old though, cause I'm not tellin')
I just hope it's not a boring Bristol race. :)
Posted by: Kathy | Mar 16, 2008 11:54:54 AM
Deb,
Who finishes better at bristol, Gordon or KB? I'll take JG (of course) and you go with KB. Good luck and let the race begin.... ;-)

Deb,
You should have seen the video of the May 3, 1999 tornado here in central Oklahoma, it was nearly a mile wide and the debris it was blowing around was unbelievable. With 318 mile per hour winds it literally peeled asphalt from the highway as it passed over it.
Posted by: Jon | Mar 15, 2008 11:59:09 PM
Kath,
Was it Oklahoma where Dorothy and Totto got
sucked away????????? I saw crap flying thru the air today. If it was not bolted down then it was in my yard or the next county. I looked to see if it was anything I could use, but I didn't need trash can lids or balls.
Posted by: Deb | Mar 15, 2008 11:13:01 PM
Y'all we got hammered here in the Carolina's...not so much here in the foothills, But down towards Rockingham...DJ I hope all is well...and Union Co in SC...color me a weather geek...BUT these Storms where UNREAL...I'm not sure how many touch downs...But looking at the radar there could have been up a half dozen!
Posted by: Fan #5 | Mar 15, 2008 11:12:05 PM
All you Gordon and Johnson fans need to get a life and stop taking everything so serious. This blog was created to give fans a place to share their opinions of all things NASCAR so don't come here acting like your opinion is anymore important then anyones elses.
Posted by: Jon | Mar 15, 2008 11:04:47 PM
Tell me about it Deb, I'm in Oklahoma. We haven't had any nasty storms yet, but Monday through Wednesday doesn't look too good according to the weather guys.
Again, glad you are ok.
Posted by: Kathy | Mar 15, 2008 10:57:59 PM
Kath, Lady Di,
This is the kind of storms that happen in Oklahoma, not Atlanta. Thank God the SEC game last night was in overtime or all those people would have been outside when it slammed into Atl and them. People were hanging onto things in there high rise hotel rooms, cause the wind was trying to suck them out the windows which had been blown out.

Fan#5,
That was toooooooooo freakin funny. Sorry the grammer dude can't find any humor in us.
We aren't in school anymore and I don't give 2 craps if I can't spell, Shit On You and Kyle can out drive both his boys in tights.
Posted by: Deb | Mar 15, 2008 10:09:02 PM
Like OMG the Grammer Police showed up!
Fan, this blog is much like a local pub..."Cheers" if you may....a T.V show from 1982 to 1993, you might have heard about it...we all come here to throw down our 2 sense(Humor Main Entry: 1hu·mor Pronunciation: Function: noun : characteristic or habitual disposition or bent : : something that is or is designed to be comical or amusing)...We all generally pick on one another...in a fun way, so in the Words od Jed Clampett...Y'all Come Back Now Ya Hear

aggie/Norm/Jethro...we don't waste our votes on Hilary!
Sorry Kat, Lord I apoligize for that, and thanks for being with the Pygmee's in New Guinea.
Posted by: Fan #5 | Mar 15, 2008 9:57:11 PM
Gee Deb, that's horrible. I'll say a prayer for those touched by this tragedy.
Posted by: Diane | Mar 15, 2008 9:04:54 PM
You all need to lay off Jeff Gordon and Jimmie J. "Haven't shown what they've got this year." Please.. TWO CHAMPIONSHIPS for JJ and FOUR for Jeff Gordon. When you all can accomplish that, then come talk. Why don't you all act like grown ups instead of talking about "tights" "batman and robin" etc. You all are a bunch of children. I bet your so called driver doesn't have the talent that these two have in their little finger.
Also, on a side note. Try reading your post before posting it. My god the errors in all of these are amazing. Difficult to read. It's almost like I'm reading a high school or junior high blog. Amazing.
Posted by: Fan | Mar 15, 2008 8:48:14 PM
Glad you're safe Deb!
