In case you missed it: Bowyer on The Biggest Loser
I've never missed an episode of The Biggest Loser. In fact, I'm a TBL junkie. Last night's episode was great. Maybe even one of the best one's I've seen yet. Here's a clip of the episode with Clint Bowyer:
Tara, the smallest contestant on the show, won the event. As you saw in the video, the contestants had to pull a two-ton car with extra weight added by the other contestants. Tara had the most extra weight added to her car, 257 pounds. Even with the additional weight, she managed kick everyone's butt in the challenge. It was priceless.
In addition to the ride, the burnout, and let's not forget that hug with Bowyer (by far the best part of the win), Tara will get to watch the Sprint Cup race at Auto Club Speedway on Oct. 11 in style. She'll get to watch the race from a luxury suite and have her picture taken with the winner of the race in victory lane. Very cool.
Maybe I'm a bit biased, because all you regular readers know he's my fave, but I thought Bowyer did a really good job on the show last night. Typically, I think it can be comical when drivers try to do things like this. They tend to look and act like a fish out of water. But he looked really relaxed and acted like he really enjoyed being there the entire time.
Kerry Earnhardt will be driving a few Nationwide races this season as will his son Jeffrey. Jeffrey will be making his appearance full time in Nationwide next year. At the next Atlanta race, Kerry, Jeffrey, and Jr are all expected to compete.

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.
