Carl Edwards looking to do a few one off races if the right opportunity arises. https://www.jayski.com/2021/04/03/carl-edwards-says-theres-potential-for-a-one-off-road-course-return/ And the current gen Nascar Cup car could get one last hurrah next season running the Bristol dirt race. According to some crew chiefs the next gen car would have to be modified for dirt racing. The short track rain tire test went well. Both drivers had positive things to say about the test and Nascar's John Probst said it was "positive and promising first test" and Nascar will evaluate it further. Some sad news the matriarch of Wood Bros. Racing Bernece Wood passed away March 30th. She was 90 years old. Fans will remember her from the Wood Bros. Museum as she was the resident historian. This week's Martinsville races will be on FS1 Friday and Saturday nights.

(Season 2 Chain of Command)Skipper:"Gilligan to a monkey you may be a Skipper but to a Skipper you're no Skipper at all!"

Happy Easter everyone!

(Season 2 Mr. & Mrs.???)Skipper:"Gilligan. That is our hut! And I'm gonna figure a way to get him out of there." Gilligan:"One way is to throw him out, remember?" Skipper:"Please, don't remind me." Gilligan:"You sure told him. "Alright Howell! Now here this! Enough is enough, there's one thing you're gonna do!" And he did. He gave you his laundry." Skipper:"Yes! But what kills me, is I took it!" Gilligan:"Life is like a game of marbles Skipper. No matter pretty yours are, the other guy's are prettier." Skipper:"Thanks a lot, Gilligan! That's all I need is a dropout philosopher!"

(Season 2 You've Been Disconnected)Gilligan:"I feel like Ben Casey!" Skipper:"If you don't stop fooling around, you're gonna need Ben Casey!"

(Season 2 Mr. & Mrs.???)Ginger:"She really got you that time Mr. Howell!" Mr. Howell:"To the quick! You know how much it costs to support one of those eggheads?"

The ones in red are mad and the ones in blue are sad.

Gilligan's Island fans... Does any of you know what happened to Skipper's S. S. Minnow ship wheel sign from opening credits where it is at today? I am curious about what happened to it.

Gilligan's Island Fun Fact: Alan Hale's black Lancaster hats and Jim Backus white Lancaster hats all had the shaper stiffening rings inside around the top like my Bluenox hat has. But they were removed for filming the 3 seasons 98 episodes 1964-1967 because with the rings in, it wouldn't look right for men stuck on an island. Except Alan Hale's Midway in Rescue From Gilligan's Island (1978) cuz Midway are made without the rings put in.

I didn't really follow NASCAR back then so I hadn't heard of him but thanks for posting this.

Another reason to love Chase. He has done great so far and am looking forward to seeing how far he will go this season. Still have a hard time accepting him in the 24 car, but other than that, that he is great. But I am sticking with Jimmie Johnson...the man of steel.

His father is mentioned in "Undercover Dukes". He's one of the drivers racing in the NASCAR race and the announcer mentions him. Having a Dukes connection is all I need to pick him as a favorite.

I know, I know...I have to enjoy it while it lasts.

I humbly bow to your awesome NASCAR knowledge. (until I take over first place then I'm going to tease you non-stop)

And who is in first place? ? ?

Beat me? Oh hog wash. I felt sorry for you last year...now with all this smack talk, I don't feel to bad. I am about to show you all who's boss...ME. LOL. Me and my buddy, Jimmie Johnson, is going to dominate this year!

Ho hum *yawns* It looks like another year of me dominating Garrett in fantasy NASCAR Maybe I'll lose a few on purpose at the beginning just to make it interesting.

Well y'all...I got some happy news for you. NASCAR SEASON IS FINALLY HERE!!!! I am beyond excited about it...but also a sad. Excited because life isn't complete without NASCAR...but sad that this is the last year that Jeff Gordon will be driving the 24 car. Can't imagine NASCAR without him. But am sure NASCAR will continue without him... Today was the Superbowl of NASCAR...the biggest race of the season. The race everyone has been waiting for. Jeff Gordon started the race on the pole with Jimmie Johnson starting besides him. Jeff Gordon had a fast car and led several laps on the opening of the race. First caution is for Landon Cassill as his engine or something broke. Second caution is for Matt Kenseth and Tony Stewart who hit the wall with heavy damage. On the restart Joey Logaono took the lead and Johnson second. Jeff Gordon has led the most laps at Daytona in his career and at the moment...Gordon has led 84 laps with 92 laps to go. They are just getting ready for a restart from a debris caution. Johnson got penalized for his crew getting over the wall too early and Edwards along with few other drivers got caught for speeding on pit road. (Sorry...am trying to type this as the race goes to see if I can remember more. Let me know if this is better or not...) Gordon had gotten the lead back but has slid back and Dale Jr. took the lead to lead several laps and now Joey Logano is now back in lead. We have 45 laps to go and they are on their final green flag pit stop and Logano is still in the lead. And now with 40 laps go go we are under caution because Brad Keselowski's car smoking up...a second caution due to engine failure. Jamie McMurray slid on Kesleowski's oil and went into the wall, Ryan Nemwan ran into the back of him. Gordon and a few drivers are pitting for fuel. Jimmie Johnson is now leading on the restart. Jeff Gordon has clinched most laps led today. Clint Bowyer has helped Carl Edwards past Jimmie Johnson after the restart. And now caution number five for Ryan Blaney as his engine blows as well... and now Joey Logano is voicing similar problems as his teammate Brad Keselowski. And now with seven to go, Joey Logano's car is still staying within and he is leading the race. Behind him cars are three wide. And with three to go Justin Allgaier and Ty Dillion get in an accident to bring on the yellow flag. And now they are red flagged as they are trying to clear the track of Allgaier's car off the track. They restart with Logano in the lead and on the last lap, Austin Dillion got in the back of Jeff Gordon to cause a big wreck to bring out the yellow flag and end the race. Joey Logano has won his first Daytona 500. Official results: 1. Joey Logano 2. Kevin Harvick 3. Dale Earnhardt Jr. 4. Denny Hamlin 5. Jimmie Johnson 6. Casey Mears 7. Clint Bowyer 8.
