Texsox Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I have a very nice NASCAR Dale Earnhardt commemorative knife, in a decorative tin, that I will trade for a White Sox item. If anyone is interested, PM me to work out a trade. The knife has never been used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted August 26, 2005 Share Posted August 26, 2005 Now if it had been David Pearson, Richard Petty or Jeff Burton (okay, Nascar fans, which one doesn't belong lol?), you might have a deal lol. Now for an off topic though... BRISTOL AT NIGHT BABY! Too bad I have to miss from about 6:45 to about 8 (meeting with Father - my dumbass didn't think about it until after I made the appointment).

That whole area is beautiful. My wife has family down there, and we actually got to go out onto the track. I loved it down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife has family down there, and we actually got to go out onto the track. I loved it down there. would have loved to have been able to get on the track. it was pretty far out of our way but i really wanted to see it so we kinda came in a back way. from this area you couldn't see the front entrance so i figured thats the closest i would be able to get without getting in trouble and pulled over and took a couple pics. a real nice guy pulled up to us, said he noticed the out of state plates so told us which way to go and told us to act like we owned the place. got up right next to the building but didn't have the nerve to push it any farther plus we had to get back on the road. the area is great. went up into the smokies and except for the drive up clingmans dome and the drive back down at night (especially since its hard to see a black bear in the middle of the road until your right up on it) it was pretty awesome.

Queen Prawn Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Jeff and Ricky!!!! A second place finish for my boy and Ricky gets 4th! I like Kenseth as well, but would have been happier if Jeff passed him - too bad Bucky hung back and ran interference for Kenseth - not that Kenseth really needed it though.

Goldmember Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 great race (and really good luck ) for jr... jarrett's an asshole. do picks on another site and would have done really good if it wasn't for him taking out newman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Prawn Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I was shocked by DJ's behaviour. I think he let his temper get to him after the bump and runs by Newman and Rusty. Newman pulls that crap regularly so I didn't feel bad for him, but I did for the other drivers that were taken out by it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lost interest. :headshake I use to watch every weekend, I even had my uncle tape the races that weren't on basic cable, and i would watch them later that day or the next.....I WAS a diehard NASCAR fan....but no...i just check to see the finish and that's it. Especially since Jr's having an off year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
