SO on to my Nascar rant this week......
As I stated above Kasey Kahne got the pole for the Atlanta race yesI know it is called the Golden Corral 500 but personally I don't think Nascar should allow a place that most people make fun of to sponser a race, when they are trying to better their image! I mean ya got rid of ciggaretts....why not gluttony too? HELLOOOO?
Here is the rest of the top 10
2 | 12 | Ryan Newman |
3 | 31 | Jeff Burton |
4 | 43 | Bobby Labonte |
5 | 18 | J.J. Yeley |
6 | 29 | Kevin Harvick |
7 | 11 | Denny Hamlin |
8 | 16 | Greg Biffle |
9 | 2 | Kurt Busch |
10 | 42 | Casey Mears |
This race unlike last weeks race doesn't have anyone qualifying on owners points....looks like Dale Jr qualified all on his own way back there is 26th position! Now As some of you know and anyone who has seen pics of my office or my husband he is a DEVOUT DJ fan! That is all there is too it, but even he is beginning to wonder if the boy wonders luck has run out? If all the commercialisum and BS he deals with on a daily basis has effected his driving ability? Personally I have thought that for a couple of years now but have refrained from saying so due to keeping the peace!
The one driver whom I cannot stand and I think has made a deal with the devil, is Jimmy Johnson (starts 14th today)...now come one folks...his crew chief, who in my humble opinion, is one of the hottest chiefs on the circuit, was caught cheating, has been out for 3 of his 4 races, this one in HOT-Lanta will make his last race he misses, they have won 2 of those races and came in second in one! NOW WHY WERE YOU CHEATING? Come on...I can't stand JJ I really can't, but if you have the car, if you have the driver, why cheat? It is obvious that he has his shit together, so why cheat? Come on Chad...what were ya thinkin? Personally to see him NOT win today would be a blessing for me!!! BUT I dont' wanna take away from anyone elses either. Any of the Hendricks Motor cars.....ANY OF THEM to NOT win today would be awesome!!!! I can't stand them!! Their drivers act as if NASCAR owes them something....guess that is what happens when you are from the west side of the rockies!!!
OK now back to the line up...Good ole Tony, who won over so many fans this past season, this gal included, looks as if he is back to his ole tricks, trying to play the bad boy, which honestly does suit him...but I do have to agree with Judy on this one, ever since Dale Sr died Nascar has needed a new bad boy....well they are doing their best to make it Tony! Calls they should make against him they won't and if anyone retaliates they get them! Now folks I don't think this is right, I like Tony dont get me wrong, if I wasn't married I would REALLY like him, BUT that is beside the point, my point is STOP trying to make him a bad boy and make people love to hate him...You have Jimmy Johnson and Jeff Gordan for that!!!! They should call them the "Brokeback Motor Sports"! HAHAHAH!!!
OK back to reality....Whatever the outcome of this race, I am sure it will not be to my liking, because the one thing I would LOVE to see is a rookie or a one year guy come out and kick ass on this race, now there are some rookies up there that can do it, and there is Kasey up there too, whom last year, I believe it was either here or in Cali had they not have to finish under yellow twice in a row, which I am happy to say NASCAR wised up and realized after how many races finished like that last season...Kasey could have taken Gordan in two of those for sure!!! He was there he was primed and he had the car to do it! It just wasn't his time!!!
Alright folks...enjoy the race today, and think of me having to drive in this shit weather to get my kiddo, which I am happy to do....just not happy about the timing!!! Oh well win some loose some!!! Hasta for now!
