First my thoughts on the Nationwide race: -- Congrats to Tony Stewart on his win. -- What on earth happened with Mark Martin? I think someone made a really bad mistake... 26865@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ Darlington 2008-05-11T09:30:07-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026778.html Ahhhh.....Darlington. I love this track (aka Lady in Black). My true Mainer accent shines bright when I say the name of this track -- pronounced DAHLINGTON, the track too tough to tame. Storytime -- When I say it, it reminds... 26778@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ Darlington 2008-05-09T09:18:48-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026654.html I went on a shopping mission. What I wanted was a batch of NASCAR pens. I was going to buy some when I went down to North Carolina on vacation but my trip got canceled and I finally got around... 26654@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-05-07T10:03:11-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026526.html I think all the drama between Kyle Busch and Dale Earnhardt Jr. took away some of the spotlight that my man Clint Bowyer deserves for his second Sprint Cup win. He was in the right place at the right... 26526@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-05-06T10:00:26-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026501.html On Friday night, Steve Wallace got into Kyle Busch in the Nationwide race. After the race Busch went over and exchanged words with Wallace, being a big cry baby about the confrontation on the track. Wallace said it best... 26501@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-05-04T08:13:54-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026399.html First things, first: Happy Birthday Kyle Busch. He's a Taurus, just like me! Now that I think of it, maybe that's why I'm not all that fond of him (possible similar traits). May = Night racing. The next three races... 26399@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ Richmond 2008-05-02T09:00:48-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026212.html Tony Stewart and Morgan Shepherd I'm not quite sure I understand why Stewart's contract with Joe Gibbs Racing is being addressed this early in the game. His contract isn't up until the END of 2009. I'm already getting sick... 26212@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-04-29T11:47:31-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/026161.html First lets talk about the Nationwide race. Dumb is the only word that comes to mind when thinking of Kevin Lepage. He is responsible for causing the "Big One" in the race. Period. Did you see it? In his interview... 26161@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ Talladega 2008-04-28T11:19:15-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025995.html -- I am going with none other than Dale Earnhardt Jr. for the win at Talledega Superspeedway this weekend. It's time for him to visit victory lane. Period. I am, however, 0-for-8 for 2008. Let's see if I can break... 25995@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-04-25T09:45:25-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025874.html NASCAR took a victory away from Peyton Sellers, who was found to have an illegal shock during post-race inspection Saturday at Greenville Pickens Speedway for the season-opening Camping World East Series race in Easely, S.C.. This is the first time... 25874@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-04-23T09:45:59-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025794.html Here's a few random thoughts that rattled around in my noggin over the weekend: -- Way to go Danica Patrick for getting her first victory. For those of you who minimize the win ... I don't care how she got... 25794@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-04-22T09:39:43-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025515.html What I should do when there's no Cup racing on a particular weekend is get some work done around the house instead of sitting around for hours on end watching racing. But I think what I will do is watch... 25515@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ 2008-04-16T13:57:30-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025340.html Excellent racing this weekend. Great side by side action. Even the Nationwide race was pretty good. Congrats to Jimmie Johnson and Rick Hendrick on their first win this season. He's not the one I wanted to win though. I actually... 25340@http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/ Phoenix 2008-04-14T09:37:08-05:00 http://pressherald.mainetoday.com/blogs/nascar/025223.html I'm going with a Richard Childress Racing car this week for the win at Phoenix.
