Bristol!
Alright, screw adam going to the colts and all the meaningless stuff, Bristol is finally here. First short track of the season and I can't wait for Sunday, or Saturday for that matter. Any predictions. I'm gonna go with, and yes emotion is coming into, Harvick because I need him to win this month and this is probably his best shot. If he wins maybe it'll be enough to sway him to resign w/ RCR. I really don't want to see him in a Toyota next year. I'd love to see Mark Martin or Bobby Labonte win if the 29 can't. THis should be a great weekend, MSBA on Saturday morning then a whole lot of bump'n and bang'n.

Yeah baby!
I'm very exceited about Bristol. I've jumped on the Jeff Burton wagon. It was great seeing him win that Bush race. It's fun to root for him and RCR to get to a level where they can battle it out with Hendrick and RCR.
Also looking forward to watching Johnson win again.

i lived within 400 yards of bristol every summer since i was little. used to go spend the summers with my grandparents down there. we used to sell the front yard parking 20 bucks a car.it brought a lot of money to the town. the best was thunder valley dragway on the weekends. my GOD!! you never heard a noise so loud for 5 seconds before anywhear!!!!. it would echo off the mountains and you could hear it 10 miles away.
lotta old school monte carlos all over the town when they used to flatbed the cars in before these humungus tractor trailers nowadays.
good times back then seen a LOTTA races there... walked the trac many times they never locked the place up back then.
those banks are steep

Bristol's a blast.Best track in Nascar IMO.
Qualifying got rained/snowed out.They still line up by points but they go by last years final standings.I don't like that at all.They should do it the way they've always done it,line up current points.

It must be cool for you to see how much that track has grown over the years. |

Something wrong on that track. Too many tires going down.

I have never been prouder of Jeff mother effin Gordon than I was today!
For the 1st time in 12+ seasons he finally stood up for himself and told that gay rookie Truex to eff-off and just plain gave that puss Kenseth a good shove.
Now with all that being said I don't believe Truex is gay or that Kenseth is a puss but mother f****er they both deserved what Gordon said about them!
I LOVE SHORT TRACK RACING!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow I don't watch Nascar but that was the best race I have ever seen. Lots of crashes, bumping and fighting. I loved the Gordon shove next time take off the helmet. Kenseth's face was priceless.
