This and that...
I will once again be making the trip down to New Hampshire Motor Speedway to attend the weekend events. I'm looking forward to it. Let me know if there is anything you'd like me to try to capture and upload to the blog. Are you planning on attending?
I was asked by NASCAR PR, Brad Klein, if I would like to take a ride in the pace car on Sunday morning. Naturally, I said yes. Brett Bodine is supposed to be my chauffeur. I'll let you know if that happens and what it was like. I'm a little nervous and excited all at the same time.
A fair at a NASCAR event? Hhhmm... From Thursday through Sunday, you can take rides at NHMS on the Ferris Wheel, the Traffic Jam, the Twister and the Round Up/Cyclone. The "Broadway Midway" costs $5.00 each day and you can go on as many rides as you like from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. each day. All proceeds will benefit the local New Hampshire chapter of the Speedway Children's Charities.
Diamond Rio will be jamming for 45 minutes for the pre-race show. They'll also be the ones to sing the National Anthem. I bet they'll be great.
With any luck at all, Joey Logano will be making his Sprint Cut debut on Sunday. He was supposed to have made his debut in Richmond but the weather prevented that from happening.
Austin Dillon made his debut in the Nationwide Series last Sunday. How did he do?
Clint Bowyer made the Chase. Yeah! I will have high hopes for him on Sunday. Here are the point standings heading into this weekend's race.
Did anyone attend the festivities at NHMS on Sunday? Just curious how that went. If you go on NHMS' website, be sure to check out that awesome video they have posted on their main page! Ha, ha!
I am sorry to say that I did not catch the race at Richmond. I hear that it was a great race.
All for now...

Dillon spun out during the race, but got back in. I don't think he had a very good finish. On that same line, he may drive the #3 in Nationwide, but Grampa Childress says a #3 will not be put in a Cup race.
Logano should be driving for Hall of Fame Racing at NHMS and not for JGR until the race in Atlanta, I believe.
Qualifying should be a go, but Sunday racing right now may get rained out, They are calling for showers. Maybe they will go away.
Again, for anyone who didn't get the message from the last blog,seats for Sunday are available at a two tickets for the price of one special. Contact the track.
