2007 World of wheels

On of those days I look forward to in the year is the world of wheels show. I am not much of an artist but do appreciate the artwork and time that goes into restoring hot rods and older cars.

Check out the flames on this:
Of course it woudnt be my wife's favorite thing unless there was some pink involved

Unleaded Fuel at Caalifornia

Well it seems as if the new unleaded fule engines have thrown some teams for a loop. as in the Case of DEI as both Martin Truex and Dale Jr. both had engine failures. Seems like Dale Jr, has other problems in the engine dept as they seem to be lacking power.

What a finish

The Daytona 500 is over and congrats to Kevin Harvick for winning on a last second effort, and I mean last second. Just as I was thinkin there is no more slingshot moves in restrictor plate racing out of nowhere comes Harvick on the outside of Mark Martin, who I thought was going to win, with a few hundred yards to go. And while the pass is going on behind them the field is wrecking and Clint Boyer ending up rolling over on his roof crossing the finishing line upside down and on fire.



Dale Jr., well he ended up crashing a few laps earlier, he never really had a car that could win today, as he said in the interview after the race they have to go back to the negine combinations they ran there in th past. why would you change something that works in the first place?
Especially with the record they have at Daytona in past years.

Oh and I hope he gets this deal with Theresa worked out cause DEI without a Dale driving is not DEI in my mind, so come on Theresa, let up a bit and work out a deal.


And the favorite to win this year's race Tony Stewart, well he got a little lose in front of Kurt Busch and got squirly before Kurt Busch ran into his rear bumper and sent both of them crashing and out of the race.
Oh by the way how close was the finish?
just look at how close Mark Martin came to winning his first Daytona 500.

Doesn't MArk MArtin look good in a Chevrolet?

Finally here

The day all true race fans are waiting for is finally here!
The Daytona 500 is just hours away........

Craftsman Triuck Racing in Daytona

An unbelievable finish at Daytona. Travis Kvapil thought he had it won with 100 yards to go when Jack Sprague got a push from Johnny Benson and past Travis for the lead at the finish line. A three car finish with Travis finishing 3rd!
