I didn't get to watch the All Star race last night...but Chase Elliott won! Woo hoo! Now only if he'd share some of that $1 million to his most loyal fan. Me! LOL!
-
LOL Roger. As much as I like Chase...I really do...JJ will come back ready and prepared to win. Hmmm maybe there should be a scene with the Duke boys chasing Rosco...;)

https://www.foxnews.com/auto/nascars-jimmie-johnson-negative-covid-19-tests Happy news! Jimmie Johnson has been cleared to race this weekend at Kentucky after two negative Covid tests this week.
-
Sounds like Roger is talking in his sleep again. He's doing to be disappointed when he wakes up and has to face the reality of him losing to me and my amazing and powerful fantasy baseball team .

http://Jimmie Johnson reports positive COVID-19 test - NASCAR MOBILE https://www.nascar.com/wp-content/themes/ndms-2016/native/article.php?post_id=272232 Jimmie Johnson has tested positive for Covid after his wife got it. He isn't showing symptoms, but will be sitting out his first race since his career started 20 years ago. Justin Allgaier will be in the 48 car on Sunday. Tho Johnson won't be getting any points for it. Ugh. This 48 fan is just heart broken. Am glad he isn't showing any symptoms and is following the guidelines, but still... I'm just done. Hopefully Elliott will win. That's all I will say...
-
On my way right now...oooo the fun I will have.
-
I am so excited for baseball season to start! This has been killing me! I was just looking at one of my fantasy teams...I'm ready to best you!
-
Yeah I know he was supposed to or wanted to. He drove for Dale Jr in Nationwide Series...
-
I don't know...but this Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson and Hendrick Motorsports fan really hopes not. I'm not too big of a Keselowski fan...tho do have more patience for him the last couple of years. Though I do find it ironic that if it does, then the guy who he wrecked and got into a fight with a few years ago, would own a majority of his car. Just my two cents on the topic...
-
Thank you. I guess you do learn something new every day! I always thought it was all Rchatd Petty.
-
NASCAR has only one number which was in modified. They retired #61 after Tichie Evens death in 1985. So it doesn't look like NASCAR retires numbers as they do in other sports. Though I do believe they should retire the #24 and #48 after Johnson retires. Because 24 will always be Jeff Gordon (sorry William Byron...he can drive #25!) #48 will always be Jimmie Johnson. Just saying... Whose Dad has no contact info? Bubba's? Who else owns Petty Motorsports?
-
Nope. His real name is Darrell Wallace Jr.. His nickname is Bubba. I assume to distinguish between him and his Dad.

It's been done before? In NASCAR? Found this article this morning. I love how the drivers and teams support one another in times like this. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-06-23/nascar-champions-stand-with-bubba-wallace/12383798

I agree. Life would be perfect if it were like Hazzard County. I so hope they find this person and can press charges. Its horrible...I just can't understand why anyone would even think of doing this, not alone to do it. It saddens me. As I said, I would think they could charge whoever with a hate crime for this. Or something like that. There has to be something. There's no reason anyone should get away with this in my opinion.
-
I would think they could charge it as a hate crime. Idk.
-
I saw that. I also just read an article that Bubba Wallace, NASCAR only African American, found a noose in his garage area. It just breaks my heart to see things turn to this. I can't even imagine how he must feel. Things like this is why people assume the flag stands for hate. I really hope they find whoever is responsible for this...
-
Me too! It'll make it more fun.
-
They just can't figure out restrictor plate races. Either irs follow the leader or its covered in a lot of huge accidents. I remember years ago. it may have been after the Carl Edwards accident at Talladega, they slowed the cars down a lot. It was follow the leader from start to finish...and Tony Stewart was acting like he was so bored he was sleeping. NASCAR then changed it up some. There has to be some in between state they can find... No baseball, no football, very short NASCAR season...my heart is seriously breaking. As much as I love my Chicago Bears football , I could possibly live without a season (especially if its going to be like last season...) but baseball and NASCAR? Its horrible!
-
Nothing beats NASCAR ... except baseball. Sadly they are not playing...the withdrawal is real y'all. So in other words, skip the bikes, go cheer on Chase Elliott!
-
LOL Roger. I saw it and assumed you were being sarcastic. And when I read about the numbers the first thing I thought about was the General! I get the sponsors and the money...but still think its wrong. LOL Talladega tomorrow. Hopefully it will have a better ending to it than Daytona.
-
Well NASCAR's All Star Race moved to Bristol in July. Which I'm happy about. But they are moving the car numbers from the doors to the back of the car to add more room for sponsors. Supposedly that's what the drivers want and they are doing it to experiment with it. I vote to stick with doors...but they don't ask me. So I guess it is what it is...
-
Thank you Hobie, Roger, Hoss for the warm welcome back. I've missed chatting with you all! Thank you for the smiles too. I can't wait to watch those races Hobie. They sound dangerous and entertaining! LOL Hoss at what Fangio said. I bet it's hard for them to drive and not speed on the normal roads. I remember Jeff Gordon saying he got pulled over for speeding while he was on the phone with Dale Earnhardt Jr. He said he could tell the cop wasn't impressed that he was Jeff Gordon so he asked him if he wanted to talk to Jr. And Jr got him out of a ticket. It cracked me up...don't know why. LOL. Anyway, it's good to be back.
-
Thank you Hobie. Its great seeing you too...and yes! It is like old times. I love it.
-
Thank you Roger. I will try to do that. Sorry to worry you. Just been busy.
