I am a big time NASCAR fan, been watching it since 1993. Was a big Earnhardt Sr fan until he died, now I root for Jr.

I saw the Nascar races on T.V. today but Earnhardt Jr. wasn't on there. Now the Jr. who was driving his car last Sunday was... But then again I missed over half of it. It came on at 11 and I caught it on the 16 laps to go... Bummer

I DO NOT WATCH THE RACES AS OFTEN OW AS I USED TO, BUT I AM A DIE HARD BOBBY AND TERRY LABONTE FAN. WE ARE ALL FROM CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS AND PRETTY CLOSE IN AGE.

Well I just got started in the big Nacsar racing. But around here they have what they call stock car races and they are alot of fun to go to.

BIG Nascar family here!!

My DH started out watching Dale SR. and now roots for Dale JR.

I like Kevin Harvick

DS likes Jeff Gordon---I dont know how that came about in this house but it did.

Even my little DD gets excited when Ryan Newmans car is on tv.

I wish that they would get the rules straightened out this year. All of the races ending under caution was disappointing.

Im not sure how I feel about the new points system---anyone want to comment on this?

I am a big Gordon and Johnson fan. I have also taken a big interest in Casey Mears. My husband was a Dale Sr. fan but now he is a Jr fan.

I'm have mised feelings about the points system

Ashren & ajrsmom- must be some interesting race days in your house :p lcmom - Martin Truex Jr was driving Dale Jr's car on Sunday - he's the Busch driver for DEI. Dale started the race & got out at the first caution.

Hopefully he will be feeling well enough to race in this Sunday's race.

Yeh, I remember Truex Jr. driving Dale Jr's. on Sunday but they had a race yesterday that came on 11 central and I missed over half so I didn't know really.

It sounds like Jr. will be back in the saddle again this Sunday. I dont think he is going to give his car up to John Andretti. ;-)
