Smoke Silver, which was the one that I had and Black Pearl. Most people got the Silver, which changed colors depending on the light. I use to laugh at those that ordered it with automatic transmission (ok, maybe "tormented" was a better word than laugh).
I absolutely loved that car but hated having parts shipped in from Stuttgart when something needed to be replaced.

He was very different than most NASCAR drivers. He grew up about 15 miles from me, but attended Prep School in Florida. Lets just say that NASCAR wasn't ready for him. He would have been better to stay in Indy Car.
It was sad what happened, and you are right about it playing out different today. I knew one of the women "friends" who mysteriously died of Leukemia in 1989. A lot of us are pretty sure what the truth is, but her parents have yet to admit the read reason for her death.
Also, many people still doubt the stories told from his ex-fiance. The timeline just doesn't add up that he could have infected her.

Football season is over. Instead of travelling arcoss a football field in a few minutes, it's time to travel a football field per second. New year, new season. It's NASCAR time.
Any thoughts on Tony Stewart's new team? Will he be the 1st successful driver owner? I have yet to see that done. Who do you think will win the 500 this year?
GO JEFF GO!!! Let's make this Daytona 500 win # 4

It's all about Jeff. Kyle may very well win it though. He almost won it last year, plus that dude can drive is azz off.
I would like to see Mark Martin win it if Jeff doesn't. Kyle is starting up front too.

Don't get me wrong, I have been raised a Jeff Gordan fan, and I like most of the racers except the ones I detest (Tony, Kevin, Robby Gordan, & Jimmie has been inching on the list too)
Kyle is an amazing driver! He does things you only think of in a movie plot....have an accident, come from behind and win...he did that a few times last year!

I'm with you about Jimmie Johnson, I can't stand that dude. He's arrogant. His crew chief, Chad is too. Yeah, I agree. Kyle is awesome. I got into it with a few GC members about him when he was just a rookie. They didn't believe me when I said he was going to be an outstanding driver. That dude is wild, but he can drive and he wins.
I hated it for him this year. Once again, he led the most laps, just like he did last year. He came up short, because of Brian Vickers.
Jr. wasn't at fault for that crash. That was all Vickers. That dude sucks. But then again, so does Jr. LOL.
Congratulations to Matt Kenseth for his rain shortened win though. He's a good driver and I like him.

i missed this thread when I started the other one in the entertainment forum...
My whole family is NASCAR junkies. I tried...tried TRIED to get away from it....then i married back in to it. So I waved the white flag. I've only been to an Atlanta fall race so far - in 2007. Tickets to it were part of my wedding gift to the hubby, since it was about 3 weeks after we got married.
We cheer for team Gibbs, Hendrix and Stewart-Haas. I am cheering for rookie Joey this year. I was so sad to see him crash And the rain out made me 
And Kyle? My family cheered.... I was in a dead sleep piled up on the couch when the crash happened. They woke me up with their hootin' and hollerin' about "poor boy Kyle" being out....

I watched Daytona right up until the point where 3 out of 4 of my drivers got wrecked. The one that didn't wreck was the one that caused it (Jr.).  I'm now in position 19 out of 19 in my league.

I don't blame Jr. for that one. I blame Vickers.

Like I said before, and I'll say it again. Replacing Bush with Jr. was a stupid decision by Rick Hendrick. I got reemed for it, but I'll say this again too. Jr. doesn't even compare to Kyle Bush. I wish Shinerbock still posted on GC, so I could see him eat his words.
Jr. sucks.

Is anybody else keeping up, or is it still just me?

I guess I am pulling for McMurray this year and like Mark Martin because he gives us oldsters a good name. I would really like to see Martin win a championship before he really, really retires.

I loved the Rock. I really miss North Wilkesboro, though. You outta see that track now. I think the last race on that track was in 96'. I saw recent photos of it, and it looks like a ghost track, now. Grass has grown through the track, where the fans once sat, all over. They should bring it back. I liked it because it was actually more like uphill and downhill short track racing. I agree. I really would like to see Martin win a Cup. He came close last year.
This was a great track.

ETA: And Jeff won the last race there too.

I like it when Kyle wins but not Jimmie. When Jeff retires, I'm switching to Kyle as my driver. I knew he was going to be good when he was racing in the Busch series (before it was sponsored by Nationwide)
