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

You're right but I like to point fingers at Bristol. It's part of the fun. |

That snow delay was a freakin riot!I don't think I've ever had more fun goofing on drivers especially Mikey Waltrip!
Today was just an all around great day.I should actually go back to the show tomorrow and then came back home and watch racing again!

The busch race was great - would have heen even better if harvick could have gotten to the shrubs bumper on the last lap. Can't wait for the cup race today. I love the fact that the bump and run (not the wreck and run) was used so much in the busch race and hope to see even more of it today. "Tell the 5 that I don't want to hear a peep out of him" - I'm not a big fan of Kenseth but that was pretty damn funny when he said that.
