It's raining...

It's pouring at the moment. Practice for the Cup cars was supposed to begin at 9 a.m., but that's not happening.

It's supposed to clear off here in the next couple hours, or so they say.

When I walked in this morning, the media director, Fred Neergard, pulled me aside and had a chat with me regarding something I said here in the media center yesterday. Apparently, some folks talked with him about a comment I made out loud when Boris Said made the field because of John Andretti being disqualified when the post-qualifying inspection determined that his car was too low.

So I guess it's a really good thing that I didn't sport that wig yesterday, huh?
The journalists in here surely would have had a field day with that one. I am first and foremost a fan. I'm not a journalist but I guess I need to learn quickly the "rules" of working in a media center.

About this blog:
I am hopeful that this will be a place where people can air their two cents' worth about a race, catch up on the gossip and share their opinions on the rules and regulations of NASCAR. I have always felt that there has been a need for such a place in Maine and that this blog helps to fill the void.
