Welcome BP.net race fans to another season of the world's greatest sport

Let's use this thread to keep up with this year's NASCAR season. We can come here and brag about our drivers and what-not. Because NASCAR is also the world's most political sport, we can also post our conspiracy therories and gerneral rants about the rules, results, and the organization.

Let's try and keep the "My driver is the best, and your driver sucks" stuff to a low roar so we don't get banned to the Quarantine Section

I'll get things started. My guy, Tony Stewart had a pretty good speed weeks despite having to head back to Charlotte with several pieces of wrecked junk on the trailer thanks to Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., and Ryan Newman's bad racing luck. An 8th place in the 500 isn't a bad way to start the year.

One thing that I was less than happy with, was NASCAR's decision to call the race with 52 laps left to run. They should have dried the track and let em' have at it. The crowd would have stayed, and the the biggest race of the year should be decided on the track, not on the weather radar.

Had they gone back to green, I seriously doubt that 17 car would have taken the trophy home to Wisconsin.

Alright gang, Let's hear it!!!!
