| ATTA BOY to Harvick :D Now a winner of 2 of NASCAR's Crown Jewel races. Brickyard 400 and Daytona 500, now he needs the other 2, Coke 600 and 500 miles at Darlington. Currently Johnson, Gordon and Jarrett have won all 4. In the modern era Earnhardt and Elliott were able to match it. Bobby Labonte needs a Daytona 500 to join, the rest need 2 or more. |

| Also kind of special it was six years ago today that BIG E died at daytona on the last lap. Also RCR last win in the Daytona 500 was Sr's only win in 98 maybe this year Harvick will win it all and finally help all of us fans of Sr heal totally I know I crying whne it hitme that today was the day six years ago that Sr died now it feels right to watch Daytona again. |

| Just keep it on ESPN and they will get ya caught up in no time. Got their former show back, RPM2Night but it's now named Nascar Now. Or if you get Speed Channel, they do a lot of Nascar programming throughout the week. |

Really glad Dave Despain is with the NASCAR show more now on Speed Channel when he used to be pretty much everything racing cept Snowmobile racing
Can't believe some woman called into the show yesterday and said Mark Martin was a Whiner :roll: |

Jack, your right, it is really weird to see Chris Fowler doing NASCAR along with Brent Musburger. That was a culture shock. I would rather see Chris Economaki in Musburger's spot but he is too old to be doing TV anymore.
Dave is really good about knowing his racing in every genre of it. Maybe some of that is the earpiece telling him the info but he does know a really good amount. :D That was funny with that woman, wasn't she the last caller?? Dave just sat there with a look of, "Come on now, are you kidding me?" I was surprised he didn't cut her off like others would do. |

Ok, now they are going way too far, From Yahoo Sports: Quote: Daytona 500 winner Kevin Harvick can no longer wear his Shell logo adorned helmet, after complaints from Sunoco, the official fuel supplier of NASCAR. The helmet must be redone to feature a less prominent Shell logo. Earlier last week Harvick was asked by NASCAR to wear a jacket over his uniform during Daytona 500 introductions, according to sources.
No new fuel suppliers are allowed to sponsor NASCAR's teams, according to Sunoco's NASCAR deal. Shell-Penzoil was allowed to join RCR and Harvick's team as promoting its automobile lubricants.
This is getting way too political. Started with Victory Gate a few years ago, errr I mean, Victroy Lane. :D It is Gatorade Victory Lane but the celebration is sponsored by rival Powerade. Caused a big ruckus with drivers who were Pepsi sponsored drivers(Gatorade) having a Coke sponsor behind them(Powerade sign.) They would either knock it down or simply move away from it only to have some company rep quickly grab the sign and move behind the driver to get it in the shot. NASCAR told the drivers to not knock over the bottles or signs and instead be more creative in getting away from it if they chose to. Jimmie Johnson put a Lowe's sign of it at Pocono and NASCAR hit the roof about that. :evil:
Then RCR has nothing to do with Cingular and AT&T joining together but he is being the one punished by having to find another sponsor for next year on the 31 car. I bet Richard is very quickly getting bent out of shape with NASCAR. He may have to find another new sponsor if Sunoco decides to go the way or Sprint and how they have gone after him on the AT&T-Cingular thing. Time for NASCAR to stop this double-dipping crap and get back to real racing instead of being so political. |
