Nightcrawler | Saturday, September 07, 2002 - 09:11 pm     Just watched the race. Glad to see people posting here tonight. I am a big Marlin fan and he is not goodbye. He is still in first place by nine points. I run a fantasy nascar league and my drivers are #20, #40, and #30. So my race wasn't that good. I got 3rd, 30th, and 43rd. GO MARLIN!! |
Starshadow | Sunday, September 08, 2002 - 01:59 am     I also got "pulled over" from the BB board. And I now release a huge ~SIGH~ I am a Rusty Wallace fan and if he gets robbed one more time this year I swear I will lose it. LOL I got my Talladega tickets and am heading out Oct. 4th for the Oct. 6th race and a few days of camping. Maybe Rusty will get a win at "dega"!! |
Jo_5329 | Sunday, September 08, 2002 - 04:58 am     Starshadow - we are Rusty and Dale Jarret fans in this house. I was so mad when Rusty's tire went down last night. I just knew he was going to take this race. He'd avoided all the wrecks up to that point and I had all my fingers and toes crossed. Dang ol' tire Drive that truck Dale! Jo |
Grooch | Monday, September 09, 2002 - 08:57 pm     I don't want to here it. Jeff Gordon was robbed! <sob!> |
Bbtimes3 | Friday, September 13, 2002 - 06:39 pm     Woo Hoo!!!!!!!! Bobby qualified 3rd! And how about Newman and Biffle? Wow. |
Nightcrawler | Saturday, September 14, 2002 - 01:24 pm     this looks like this race will be good one. did anyone see Rudd's eye  |
Angelwings | Sunday, September 15, 2002 - 12:05 pm     It has been raining here at my house all weekend (in SC) and now it is raining and stopped the race (in NH). I would like Marlin to win the championship, but if he cannot then Jeff Gordon. I also like Jeremy Mayfield and Bill Elliot. I doubt if they are going to get a race in today. |
Whit4you | Sunday, September 15, 2002 - 01:29 pm     Jeff Gordon is my babe... It's nice of him to lighten up and LET someone else win some this year |
Marysafan | Tuesday, September 17, 2002 - 09:23 am     Greatest points race in the modern era! This is going to come down to the wire. I don't see anyone pullng away. There are just too many contenders. I am getting on a plane Friday morning and will be at Dover for the Busch race on Saturday. I sure hope it doesn't rain! Mark Martin is nearing the end of his career ..he would be a sentimental choice for the championship. Of course Jeff Gordon fans want to see him put another notch in his belt on the way to catch Earnhardt and the King. Sterling Marlin would like to bring one home for the Doge boys. It would mean a lot to tempetuous Tony Stewart after all he has been through. (Although I could see him tellng NASCAR what they could do with their trophy and then leaving the series for something a whole lot more fun. and wouldn't it be something if Jimmie Johnson ..the rookie phenom...took it home in his first season! At any rate ..it sure is going to be fun to watch! |
Bbtimes3 | Sunday, September 22, 2002 - 09:43 am     Race starts in a few minutes! Yah!!!! Hope everyone's favorite drivers do good today and it's a safe race. Go 18, 20, 8, & 29! (I get to bounce back and forth from the race to the Texans game....Go Texans! ) |
Starshadow | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 07:43 pm     Wooohoooo my Talladega tickets came today We are going and camping for a couple of days as usual. It is going to be one huge party. Don't know if any of you have had the pleasure of going to the race and camping out with all the fools, but I highly suggest it. As Tony Stewart says we Talladega fans are obnoxious hehe. You can bet we will give ol' Tony a nice Alabama welcome. |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 09:11 pm     Have a great time Star!!! Hey, in the racing game, it seems Mick has the current hold on first place! WTG Mick! I've got 12th place locked up tighter than a case of lock jaw. |
Starshadow | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 10:42 pm     Thanks Lancecrossfire!! Maybe I will make a TVCH banner and get us some national tv coverage Thanks again for the welcome!! |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 10:49 pm     Star, there are a number of folks who typically post to this thread (but haven't been here for a number of days) that are as big of fans of NASCAR as you are. Once they get back here, I think you will have a great time in this tread. It's clear you are all a very loyal group of people to the sport. I like it, although am not into it as much as others are. One thing for sure--these drivers sure to have a great talent for what they do! |
Starshadow | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 11:18 pm     I read once this fine quote about Nascar drivers.... "All Balls No Strikes...Nascar" LOL How true it is! Does anyone besides me miss #3 out there causing problems? |
Lancecrossfire | Thursday, September 26, 2002 - 11:22 pm     I think a lot of people do Star. |

Goddessatlaw | Friday, September 27, 2002 - 08:09 am     Can I just say that I have tickets to go to the US Grand Prix at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway this weekend? F-1 is like watching paint dry to me (I prefer Indy car racing), but I'm going anyway to check it out. Haven't been lucky enough to go to the Brickyard 4 in August, but maybe next year. I always prefer going to qualifying rather than the races. These are my credentials, and they're not very good, but maybe you'll let me stop in occasionally so you can flame me or something. Nothing like a good flame to wake a girl up. |
Nightcrawler | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 06:28 pm     Star, I'm so JEALOUS I would LOVE to go to Talladega or any nascar race. I live in Iowa and I'm only 2 1/2 hr. away from the Kanas speed way but it was sold out for a long time. and I'm a BIG Tony Stewart fan. so if you could cheer him once for me that would be great. if there is someone out there that does not miss Dale #3 then there NOT a nascar fan!!!! Lance, I'm still in 7th place in the game but I'm up to $158!! |
Lancecrossfire | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 06:33 pm     NC--I just about that hi too--but am in the toilet--LOL. Micknrc is having a great season so far! How are you doing in your money league NC? Goddess, you are welcome here anytime I'm not into racing nearly as much as most of the people in thsi thread. BUt it's fun to play along with the rcaing league and talk to some really nice people here. |
Nightcrawler | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 07:02 pm     well Lance I WAS doing great in my money league but I fell to 7th and only the top 5 get money L.C. took 5th from me about 3 weeks ago. that was about the time Marlin started sucking I'll give the background on my money league. There are some new nascar fans here now. I run a fantasy nascar league and my drivers are #20, #40, and #30. We all have 3 drivers and we all put money into the pot at the start. We get the points that the driver gets and some extra points for where they start and finish the race. We can trade drivers at any time (it does cost $2.00 for each trade) as long as 2 teams do not have the same 3 drivers. Our pot is up tp about $300.00. it's fun you all should get one going with your Nascar friends where you live |
Starshadow | Saturday, September 28, 2002 - 10:17 pm     Nightcrawler... I will be happy to give Tony a big hollar for ya! Talladega has always been my fav. track too. I have also been to Daytona but it dosen't compare to "Dega at all!! My 6 year old LOVES Tony so I will be yelling for both of ya's at Driver intros. Watch the race I will be the cute one with the BIG SMILE!!! |

LOL Seriously my 2 fav things are football and Nascar. I like NFL football but I really love nascar. Remind me to tell you the story of how I fell in love with nascar As for Whos Line....my favs are Colin and Wayne. They are soooooooo funny. Colin, cuz I just love a man who is so cute, Wayne cuz he is so talented. I just had to say Hi again cuz I think we are gonna be friends. Please excuse typos.. I am from Alabama and the inbreeding does mess up up LOL. Somehow I figure you for a Jeff Foxworthy fan too?? ~star~ |
Nightcrawler | Sunday, September 29, 2002 - 06:52 pm     WOW Star you sound REALLY COOL I don't know very many women that love nascar and football.
