Any NASCAR fans on here?

I'm here.... Boo Harvick. I guess we can cut him some slack since he hasnt won a points race in over 3 years....

I'm so over the Jimmy Johnson show though, My whole family loves JJ, but I'm just SICK of him. I wish the other drivers would step it up and give him the competition the sport needs.

LOL @ Harvick. He does well at the plate tracks. I don't think he'll be with Childress too much longer, though, because he tried to get out of his contract early.

I can see why your family likes Jimmie, he's an awesome driver. I liked him early in his career, then I turned into a "Jimmie player hater" because he was beating Jeff, but now I don't like him because he's not being a teammate to Jeff. He proved that at Taxas last week and today at Dega. He checked up, and when Jeff tried to go around him, that dude literally blocked Jeff below the yellow line. Then he caused that big wreck, too. He wrecked himself at the end (glad he was ok) ...but...

Onto Richmond for some Saturday night racing.

He said he doesn't like you, either.

Got my tix for Darlington and tix to the Martinsville Fall race. I am one of those who pulls for the underdog. I am/was a big Geoff Bodine fan and then a Johnny Benson fan. I was at the Rockingham race when Johnny won his one and only Cup race. Rockingham was a great place to see a race. Still like Benson in the trucks.

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.

Ditto.

My husband was a huge Rusty Wallace fan while he was still racing. I never liked Rusty much as a driver but I really enjoy listening to him as a commentator. My former favorite driver was Jeremy Mayfield - too bad he self-imploded.

These days we both usually cheer on Tony "Smoke" Stewart, although I also like Carl Edwards which drives the hubby nuts. Not a big fan of the Busches, Harvick, Johnson, J. Gordon.

Yeah I guess the 92 octane the young lady was smellling on Jeremy in his old commercial was from cutting the crystal meth. Sorry, I liked Jeremy, too. It is a shame he dove headlong off the cliff. Hopefully he won't end up like Tim Richmond.
