| I will be watching, hopefully the rain will move out and they will get the track dried. Go Junior!!! |
|
|
| schwartz19 |
I will definately be watching if the race is ran. The radar doesn't look too good down there, looks like it may rain all day. :mad:
If they do get the race in I will be looking for a Hendrick car to cross the line first. With the special paint schemes though I look for Dale Junior and Martin Truex Junior to be up front most of the day! |
|
|
| cbrad00 |
| Talladega is in Eastern Alabama isn't it? If that is the case, if what is there moves out, it looks like they will have a window, but it takes a ton of time to dry that track, it will be close. |

| Jr is runnin Sr colors today, right? |
|
|
| The Butler |
Balloon knot posted this in the "Tony Flipped" thread. Pretty slick look.
Still trying to figure out if I want run Tony on my fantasy team. That was a pretty big hit he took yesterday. He sounded fine after the wreck but he has got to be sore and have some cobwebs in his melon today. Thoughts anyone? |
|
|
| jlohlinger |
Fantasy Team for today:
Tony Stewart
Kevin Harvick
Dale Jarrett
Scott Riggs |
|
|
| sabotage70 |
When Tony and Jr. team up they can be unstoppable.
Today on nascar.com they have the incar audio free today. They have Jr. but they never have Tony on. |

| Damn, they are pulling the cars off the track. it's going to be a couple of hours before they start if they lose the track to rain. |
|
|
| LynnD |
| My first sunday off in weeks,free in car scanner this weekend and now it rains lol...Hopefully ill be watching! |
|
|
| cbrad00 |
So close to starting, I hate when it starts raining right when they pull the cars onto the track for the pace lap.
My fantasy picks for today are:
Jeff Gordon
Dale Jr.
Kevin Harvick
JJ Yeley |
|
|
| Miller |
| Well one good thing here is dega has lights so they could run late tonight if they want. |
|
|
| schwartz19 |
I for one would love to see them run under the lights at Talladega. Never seen that before and I believe it would be some great racing.
It's stopped raining now so hopefully we will see some racing shortly! :D |
|
|
| Miller |
Happy Birthday Dale Earnhardt, we miss you. Even if it was yesterday

The talk was that they wanted to install the lights after the repaving that's supposed to start right after this race... with a possible day to night Coca-Cola 600 type race starting next season. |

I guess that's what I was thinking about because they don't have lights on this track to run a night race. I'm full of crap in the lights post so everyone can ignore that.
I hate Monday races because i can't see them. It will be better next year when Sirius has NASCAR. |

There is a good gap in the storm movement but it looks like there will be another BIG line on it's heels.
One good thing about Sunday / Monday off.........
My Team-
Smoke
Martin
Edwards
Truex
& Jr |
|
|
| Miller |
| I'm not sure...there is a lot of rain to the west but it's possilble they could get a break and maybe make it half way if the track doesn't go to far. |

Fuck, that means it won't be in high def tomorrow (at least for those of us without FX-HD). God forbid they interrupt the shitass talk shows that Fox shows all day long to carry the race on the main network. |

At least it's because of a rain delay though and not the fucking NBC gave us last year by putting half the Chase races on TNT... fucking assholes... :mad: |

yeah I couldn't believe they had half the chase on tnt last year. Cox in vegas didn't have tnt hd at the time. I enjoy fox"s broadcast so much better than nbc's. Now where I live the cable service that I have doesn't even have hd. I would like to keep the cable for the Internet. I hate that I got a nice tv and I can't even read the #'s on the tops of the cars from the backstretch. |

Can't you adjust your screen? I had to on mine so I could see them. |

I always listen to the races on regular testicular radio. When it comes over to Sirius, who will we be hearing? Is it a seperate radio crew from PRN (Doug Rice and the boys)?
I'm in a racing league as well.
I've got Sadler, Smoke, Edwards, "Pretty Boy" Gordon, and Junior.
If Junior wins this race, the conspiracy theories are going to be everywhere. A lot of people still think that racin' is fixed, so this won't help.
What I really hate about this Monday race is that Lowe's Motor Speedway had tire testing with Smoke included scheduled for Monday through Wednesday. Free to the public. I was going to take my boy down tommorrow and check it out before heading out on the road for work. Looks like that is canceled as well now. |
