More thoughts and views from NHMS

I watched the Camping World East race from up in the press box last night. It started late because of a rain delay during the Sprint Cup qualifying. I really wasn't sure if they were going to be able to get the entire race in because the skies looked as though they could dump rain at any given time, but they were able to do so.

Eddie MacDonald won the event. Ricky Carmichael was awesome to watch last night. He raced his way from the back of the pack right up to his fifth-place finish. Steve Park had issues under the hood. Austin Dillon finished fourth. Here are the race results from last night's race.

Here are a few more shots from yesterday.

I dove to the right like I was getting out of the way of a Mac Truck after I snapped this picture. A little too close for comfort.


Jack Roush


Carl Edwards talks to the media.


They had to pull Michael Waltrip’s engine.

I was out and about this morning around the garage area. I will be back in a while to share those images as well. I'm trying to get caught up from missing a day with all the website issues we had.

All for now...

Interesting pictures.

If you thought that woman was weird, I will send you a picture of the Rainbow Warrior when I have time to find it.

And that dude is a little bit too old to be Jeffrey Earnhardt.

Gibbs teams 1-2-3 today. I have done it! I bought a Rowdy tee shirt and will wear it tomorrow along with my Tony sweatshirt. That way I'll be ready for either win. No fence climbing today darn it and I was right there at the start-finish line with my camera.

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.
