I used to be a dedicated NASCAR fan DVR'ing everything from practice to post race commentaries but NASCAR has ruined the sport!

It should be called, (NASCAR "We just want to be like Formula One"")!!!

Depends on whether the "fix" is in. Before you castigate me for dissing NASCAR--remember how the participants (including the # of drivers) in this year's chase changed within days. Then tell me it doesn't smell like professional wrestling....

Baker's dozen is 13--this year there is actually one.

Hey, where is "Smoke"? Personally I keep my eye on Martin (not the oldest--can't recall his name) but he and Patrick are usually within a few slots of each other--at the low middle. Not a fan of Go Daddy but do like to see old guys participate so I notice her.

I don't watch either--honest. Knew enough about the 'Skins to be PC when I lived in DC and have always kept up just enough with sports to conversate.

No, Mark Martin. Old guy at aged 54. Not the oldest. Morgan Shepherd aged 71 (normally in the Nationwide part-time) was scheduled to drive at New Hampshire in July; I don't know if he did or not.

I have never had an accident or moving offense ticket (hey, I lived in DC so parking tickets happen) despite driving with a lead foot since 1970. I have had 2 blowouts at over 80 MPH and am here posting about fruit.

1st was in 1971 when I was heading off to do a look see at my 1st alma mater in Asheville. I was about 20 miles out of DC late at night heading down 95 with my mother fast asleep in the back of my father's prized Ford station wagon. Road was clear so I hit it. Mom woke up "Sweetheart, aren't we going too fast?"

"No, Mom, the speed limit is 95; I'm only doing about 90."

"Oh, okay."

Not ten minutes later the rear driver's tire blew. I was going uphill so probably only 90 (I vividly recall seeing 100 at some points) but WHOA! Pulled over and I began pulling out "stuff" to change the tire. Some man stopped to help. Thank goodness! I had no idea where to put the jack and where I had it was ALL wrong. (End of my "I'll open my own door women's lib stuff--I don't know everything.)

2nd blowout was about 7 years ago. This time rear passenger. But in a Geo Metro Convertible. I was only doing 80 or a little more--Molly loved it when I opened her up! But this time with my father beside me. And not uphill. He'd taught me to drive on his 3 on the tree Valiant so he trusted me to handle things and I did. (Actually I doubt he realized what was happening; he was 87ish at the time.)

Apparently I do just fine going pretty fast with good tires and those that aren't so good so I think NASCAR and I should meet.
