Tom - you don't need the dictionary,,,,just listen to those engines turning 15,000 rpms and going through the gears. Toyota has made its way into F-1 and is doing great. I'll bet Al turned off the tv already,,,since Jiffy is 72 laps behind at the moment. I like Biffle also,,,love the Subway commercial he did, lol. I don't care who wins it,,so long as they are driving a Dodge or a Ford I'm going to take my teeth out and watch the finish What time does Chuckie come on CBS today???

I see Chuckie's UConn team got upset today by NC State. Bet it is a long drive home. Sorry Chuck,,I was pulling for your guys, but just by a little bit. Never count any N. Carolina school out when it comes to round ball.

Went to my senior son's end of season basketball banquet, missed the last 8 laps. It seemed like JJ had it won. Sounds like quite a finish, even if it was only 9000 rpms!!------------------ BackinBlack

Gheeezz Santella - 8 laps from the end and you depart the tube? They were running 29 seconds laps at the end,,,,4 more minutes and you couldn't stall that much? Yeah,,JJ's Chevy was turning 9000,,,but Edward's Ford was turning 9150 that last lap >>>>>>>>>and YOU MISSED IT!!!! Some fan! Put your teeth back in!

If I would have missed the emotional team video I think I would have been banned from the race tube and the race track for a while. AND, it seemed like JJ was holding on just fine. Saw the replay, man the 99 just took off. JJ could have made a nice wreck out of that deal, but he kept it clean. I was the last one seated as it was!!------------------ BackinBlack

OK,,,,I'll let you off the hook. The kid's event was more important. I just wanted to get your blood pressure up anyway. Actually, I believe JJ did hit Edwards twice in the last 300 yards,,,,as I seen in slow-mo video. I don't berate JJ for that,,,I would have put him into the wall good if it was I, lol.BTW - your a good dad

Thanks... Like a good racer, I gotta get points when I can! Halicat, was it more tires than horses at the end? Must have been. They said that Biffle was saving up his tires to make a run at the end, I guess Edwards just let it hang out. Nothing to lose, and he pulled off the sweep for the weekend. 2 backflips, wow. I would like to see Jimmy Spencer do that.------------------ BackinBlack

Carl Edwards is a local boy. He is from Columbia, Missouri. Has a large following here locally. Two wins in 2 days. Quite an acomplishment. Kinda proud of the boy. You may be hearing a lot more of this boy in days to come. Great job Carl.
