    Waaay late to the party, but that Harvick/JPM snit still pisses me off. You get fined for swearing in NASCAR, but nothing for blocking someone else's car so you can have your hissy fit at a guy who was an innocent bystander himself? WTF?

    And I noticed by the camera shot that JPM's weight issues he had in F1 haven't completely disappeared. Move away from Tony Stewart's Ho Ho stash ... slowly ... slowly ...

    Hell, Bubbs ... you forgotten that Felix Sabates still owns a piece of Juan Montoya's team? All that Cuban food ... straight to his gut.

    What I loved about the JPM/Harvick snit (good word choice, Bubbler) were the officials keeping their distance for a quite a while. I'd bet a considerable amount of cheese that any NASCAR official who immediately jumps in between two drivers in that situation immediately gets axed. Even if the combatants are helmetless and throwing haymakers, there's probably an unwritten rule that they have to treat fights like hockey refs -- it's all good until someone goes down.

    As for Junior and the 8...can't believe it was even a discussion for so long. How do you pass up the payday from 20 million Junior fans restocking their closets/car windows/walls? You don't.

    Even then, that's no guarantee. Forecast is still calling for rain.

    Though I do hope for the sake of the crews they get the damn thing over with...

    NASCAR at 10 a.m. on a Tuesday is something I could get used to mighty fast.

    At least the engines are finally started. God bless you all who've been stuck there since Thursday.

    Oh, of course. If I traveled to this one the wife would have put my stuff on the street if they had to go to Wednesday. And with this fog, they still might.
