in Auto Racing.....
No more track in Pleasanton..... the old owners won't keep it open long enough for hotlaps.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. has signed a deal with Mikey Waltrip Racing... He told CTC "I wanted a job with weekends off, so I went to MWR and will pilot the #8 Budweiser/ Tameka Technologies Camry to an outstanding 44th place in Friday qualifying attempts"
This is all that's happening in auto racing this week.
SORRY I HAD TO BREAK THE SILENCE!

Randy, So, do you KNOW something about the track in Pleasanton that the rest of us dont, or are you just assuming? Brandon spoke to Devin Adler, and he told Brandon that the track would be open next Friday. I know that some people dont care for the way the track was run under Nell and Ed, but they did have the track open all season last year. Yes, there were things that many of us questioned under their leadership, but you do that with ANY and ALL track OWNERS/MANAGEMENT. Do I like the fact that when my car was upside down for 2 1/2 hours last year after flipping, that it was left there upside down? NOPE, but it happened, and the car still runs, ( Thanks for your help getting it right side up Randy). As a car owner, I hope the track will stay open. If it doesnt on to plan B..... what was plan B again? LOL..... I dont have one yet, but I'm sure if and when the time comes I will. As far as ole whats his name in the #8 car..... maybe he should have teamed up with a real winner, like #24 Jeff Gordon.

Well.... why wouldnt you have guesed it. I mean REALLY!! Of course Jr. baby boy wants to join a winning team! Ha-Ha! And all my loyalty will stay with Gordon, and I accept Jr. onto the team, but he better straighten up his act and be a good little boy. (J/K) (trying to make your blood pressure rise!) Mindy

heheh he'll have to show what he's made of now. He will definately have to step up his game, but in better equipment hopefully that shouldn't be too hard.
blood pressure is ok, jr isn't really my guy, I'm still pull for the old school guys, Martin, Elliott, Rudd <sigh> but they're gettin' old hehe j/k
