Ladies & Gentlemen - Start Your Engines!

Are you really ready for some stock car racing fun? I sure am! And I am excited to hear that Danica Patrick will join the Nascar Sprint Cup Series in 2012. Yes, Gentlemen and Lady, start your engines!

Although I am strictly a Nascar Sprint Cup Series fan, I am also a car #99 - driver Carl Edwards fan, so I do keep an eye on the stats for all races that apply to my favorite fella.

Daytona 500 (2011)

My Prediction was wrong.

500 Prediction

In 2011 Sprint Cup racing began with country singer Martina McBride singing The National Anthem (USA) - 2011 Sprint Cup Series Race - Daytona 500!

I guess I'm not a fortune teller!

Trevor Bayne in car No. 21 grabbed the checker flag of the 2011 Daytona 500 and drove onto Victory Lane (once he figured out how to get there). Congratulations to a great young driver!

Carl Edwards in car No. 99 raced right in to grab 2nd Place. Bravo for you Carl!

Let's see how well WE can predict the finish of the Sprint Series...

I think as much as I dislike him, that Kyle Busch will win the 2011 Sprint Cup Championship.

I'll stand behind you with #99.

Carl deals an honest hand.

junior8rules says:

Even though Brad was agressive, Carl has been known to put the "Chrome horn to drivers". The kid, (Brad), has learned from this, but is now with Penske, so I don't think he will go to far this year.

Brad wouldn't stack the deck.

I'm going to go with the underdog to be different. Let' go Brad!:~) See you around the galaxy...

Kyle Busch Receives Citation

Your Opinion Counts

Or does it?

Kyle Busch cited for driving 128 miles per hour in a 45 mile per hour speed limit zone. Your thoughts after watching the video and/or reading the headlines?

  • CruiseReady Sep 13, 2011 @ 5:24 am | delete
    He's not the first race car driver who has been ticketed \for doing WAY over the speed limit, and won't be the last... Even AJ and Mario were doing it in their younger days. That doesn't make it right, however, and I wish they would save their racing for the track

    Well, I guess I am not too happy with driving 128 in a 45 mph zone, however that's just me. I really enjoyed this lens, thanks for sharing so well. Hope you're well Ruthie, and life is being good to you. BTW, sorry about the repeats on your lensmaster page, I was having trouble with my mouse, if you would please delete all but one.:~) See you around the galaxy...
