It's not just you. For some reason I get bored with it a lot easier than I use to. Plus some of those crazy announcers drive me bananas

We do have tickets though for the summer Bristol race. Have always wanted to go to the night race there

He's definetly going to have to prove his worth this season. Last year was kind of a throw away - new team takes some getting used to.

I wish he would make up his mind. The 5 car has always kind of a dud, whether it be lack of funding or a crew chief that doesn't quite have "it", something has always held it back.

We'll see.

I've been to the Bristol Night race, a few years ago, & Tony Stewart won in his Chebby!.Great place to see a race!.......For some reason this season, I'm just not excited........I've been a fan since 1979! Maybe that is why????.........

But you can root for chevy drivers all day long? I have no problem with hearing a kid say not winning was not good enough. It shows his competitive edge. Do you honestly think there is one driver that goes home completely satisfied with not winning. I mean sure there is examples like running like crap in practice and qualifying and fighting your way up to the top ten and being happy. But every single driver has ONE and only ONE goal each week and thats to win.

Whenever I post about it I usually get a blown engine before lap 40 but here goes...

#19 Elliot Sadler (almost lost his ride this year)

for backup I'll go with #96 Bobby Labonte.

With same bodies, same engines, etc, It gets boring pretty quickly. You guys that never experienced it when NASCAR was really production bodies don't know what you missed.

It's pretty bad when all the pre race stuff they air is better than the race itself.

I loled @ lagano's crash as soon as I saw the baby moving in the car.

Decent race so far, hope they don't call it yet...

I agree, 24 has ground to make up.

Junior is cracking me up. Senior is rolling in his grave.

Hmmm, Kenseth wins. Rain races suck. What a letdown.
