Welcome to Atlanta, folks! The fastest track on the circuit. This track spun out a tornado last summer, so if that doesn't tell you how fast this track is, nothing well.

 

Last year's winner is Carl Edwards, who is sitting on Kyn's bench this week. ;)

 

This year's pole sitter is Kasey Kahne, who's on Daemon's active list. That competition could get interesting! :D

 

This week's competitions are:

Kyn vs. Daemon

Kyn- #48 Jimmie Johnson, #20 Tony Stewart, #24 Jeff Gordon

Daemon- #12 Ryan Newman, #9 Kasey Kahne, #38 Elliott Sadler

 

Lor vs. Mo

Lor-#8 Dale Earnhardt, Jr, #16 Greg Biffle, #5 Kyle Busch

Mo- #01 Joe Nemecheck, #6 Mark Martin, #29 Kevin Harvick

 

Twinny vs. Hero

Twinny-# 43 Kyle Petty, #17 Matt Kenseth, #55 Michael Waltrip

Hero- #1 Martin Truex, Jr, #25 Brian Vickers, #42 Casey Mears

 

We're currently under a rain delay, but they've got every available vehicle on the track, drying the asphalt, so we'll be underway within the hour.

 

Good luck everyone! [/i]

Still under a rain delay...

 

...it's not looking good for racing today.

 

*sighs*

Hampton is just Southeast of Atlanta...

OK, they officially called the race for today. So, those of you who have the option, make sure to tune in at 11 EST tomorrow, to Fox when they'll try again! I'll have the radio on, but I can't post from work, so ya'll will just have to keep up with it yourselves. LOL

 

Bristol next week, folks!

 

"It's Bristol, baby!" ~Dale Earnhardt, Jr after his infamous win there last year.

soo.... they're still just driving around in circles? :P

*laughs* pretty much!!

*pokes 'em both* Ya'll just hush. There's more to it than just driving in circles.

 

And for the record, most of the tracks are oval and tri-oval, with a few road courses tossed in on the side.

 

*sighs* would somebody please help me replace my drivers? please please please......

 

Shoot i even figured out Hero's drivers to watch the race today...*walks away pouting withe racing list dragging on the ground*

they'll race tomorrow, Twinny, fear not. They'll get the Atlanta race in. I'll just miss it. *grumbles*

 

The good news is that we've got Bristol next week! *grins* I love Bristol. It's like bumper cars or an Enduro Race! *laughs* the one with who gets across the line first wins, but keeping your car in one place is harder than it sounds! LOL

Hey I couldn't do it!! Driving is not my favorite thing in the world!

Ah, but I lust after 200 mph...I want to do that, so bad!

Ya driving fast is kinda hot and all! *purrs* Sorry bad green! :lol:

*grins* I just want to feel all that power completely at my command. I can do 50 or I can do 150 and it's all based on how hard I push the accelerator at the time. What a high!

*laughs* I think it also depends on the kind of car you have. If you know your car is capable of doing 150 and you keep it at 50 there is power in that too! Harnassed power!

but if it's possible...I'd do it. *laughs* Just gimme the keys to the 'vette and I'll prove it...

Oh me too! I have gone 150 before but that was when I was young and stupid. *G* I did it on ice and with snow coming down. *rolls eyes*

Your poll must be broke Lor.

 

I don't see a option for

Renault

Honda

Ferrari

Mclaren

Williams

Sauber

Red Bull

Scuderia Torro Roso

Super Aguri

Toyota

Midland

 

Whats up with that?

*laughs* Probably ran out of room for stuff!

*grins* have no idea who voted for me but thanks!!

 

And, really, i think i did when against hero yesterday because Petty, that silly, hasn't one a race in ages finished 8th!!! *laughs* I think Lor one hers with the Earnhardt guy to....

Yeah, I need to re-evaluate my team it seems...well, some of them anyway.

 

Always next week!

*laughs* Well I know I voted for you!

*laughs and pokes Paet*

 

Were any of them racing the Golden Corral 500 this weekend in Atlanta, sugar? Yeah, I didn't think so. ;)

 

I'll sit down and run the numbers tonight and let ya'll know who won. Or, I could be lazy and wait a day and let NASCAR.com do it for me. *laughs* Ah, I'm not that bad.

 

However, Daemon racked up on points this week, since Kasey Kahne won the pole, lead a lap, won, and won from the pole this week. That's a nice chunk of points. Glad you were racing Kyn this week, babe. That would've hurt my scores! LOL

Dang I wish I had a cable. Missing all this!!

Actually, very few of these races are on cable. Most are on Fox, TNT carries some...and there's a new station that's in the mix, but I don't remember who it is. I'll try to keep you posted on which ones are on what channel, so you can watch and laugh at us, if you want, Jade. ;) This weekend it's on the Speed channel, which is cable. Sorry. :(

 

Alright, this week's results:

Kyn beat Daemon (don't ask me how!) 475-395

Lor beat Mo 417-328

Twinny beat Hero 374-300

 

*passes Twinny 10 points for winning this week and winks*

Get ready for the wildest show in NASCAR next weekend at Bristol! This is the track that Dale, Jr won at last year that landed him in the spotlight with the sensors and cost him 25 points that could've had him well placed at the beginning of the Chase for the Championship. That was the Fall race, but Dale's starting the year off better than last year. Who'll win this week? Who knows? The man with the most car wins at Bristol, where the cars look more like they've been through an Enduro race than a Cup race. But then...

 

"It's Bristol, Baby!" ~Dale, Jr. (just before the curse word slip. ;) )

Yippee! Yippee! Yippee! I won! And i even knew it...Thanks for the vote Jade...

 

*swings Lor and Jade into a spin, hugs Hero..and pokes Kyn*

*laughs as she is spinned around* Ya except I don't even have regular channels. Nothing comes in inside my house. I am going to go get some rabbit ears and see if that works!
