NASCAR fans, are you ready for the season to begin?

I am so excited that I can hardly stand it. The Bud Shootout is February 5th and the Daytona 500 is the 15th. Who else will be watching? Who will you be rooting for?

I will be watching on the 15th at a big Nascar Party at our VFW. We are members of a Nascar club. I am a Kasey Kahne and Mark Martin. Dh goes for Junior. My daughters go for Junior and Kasey.

My favorite driver is Bobby Labonte. I am so excited about this season. I will start by watching the Bud Shoot out. I never miss a race if I can help it. I wish there were enough people in my subculture in my area to have a Daytona 500 party. Since there isn't, I will be watching alone. This is fine since I have TrackPass. Too bad DirectTV did away with HotPass.

I cant wait for the season to begin. I live about 5 miles from the Atlanta racetrack,love it when they come in March.This year they changed the fall race from October to Labor Day weekend..They will have mock cars at the shopping centers and some of the race drivers come to the resturants around here..Go Junior!!!!!!!

It just isn't a Sunday afternoon here without Nascar. We both look forward to the start of racing again. My DH likes Jr., the most, and I am an Edwards fan.

Hey DeBora.. You're not alone.. .Bobby's already helping Jr... Nice move. Sitting here with you watching the crash.. .

That was my little play by play to the first caution. Go Bobby!!!

DH was a long time Ricky Rudd fan, but now he's a Carl Edwards "Man". We both cheer for Matt Kenseth. Being from the family that only drives FORDs, I must say I am thankful Bobby is in a FORD this year!

(sorry for the back to backs.. but I guess I'm a little excited myself)

They said in practice, Bobby was racing like Junior. Not bad, Bobby's in 3rd!!! Bobby's only got to conquer 2 more cars, but he has plenty of time before the break.

How many cars and who are were in that wreck. I thought Tony didn't make it through, but I forget he isn't in that 20 car anymore. lol
