Congrats Jerry!

We seem to be running neck and neck!

I almost picked Joey!

Cant wait for Bristol! Short track Saturday night Woot Woot!

Were currently in Tennessee! Bristol is just around the corner!
Just returned from a day trip to the Jack Daniels Distillery!
Brought home a Duck single Barrel and some Gentleman Jack that's engraved just for the Mrs and I!

Congrats Jerry!

But I am disappointed Junior didn't win! That was a great race - especially for MIS.

I did a lot of shopping and spent too much money, but I had to buy a #2 Miller Lite White Fusion die-cast and a Chase's First Win #94 Aaron's Truck die-cast because we were there for that one (and conceived a baby that night!).

I took a few pics...

Now the Armed Forces don't do fly-bys, the private planes are slower and easier to photo

I guess we blew it by missing the Interstate Batteries Hospitality. I did go to the area later to find that I missed a meet-and-great with Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs. They signed autographs for everyone. They were giving out pretty nice Kyle Busch hats and everyone in our section (all there as Interstate guests like us) were wearing their signed hats. I still got a hat, just not a signed on. And you wouldn't believe it, but I was a good sport and I wore that hat all day up in the grandstands. And I'll do it again if this happens on lap 3 every time!

I watched a PVR of the race and tv really glanced Jr's pit row incident at the competion caution. Larson really got into Jr hard and spun him right out on pit row. You can kinda see in this picture...

Junior had a real uphill battleon the day just like Brad and Jimmie. He returned to pit row to repair damage several times before the restart.

He was actually restarting last when Danica spun out, which is why he almost got caught up in that.

From this shot it kinda looks like Junior just got revenge

It looks sort of broken. I'll have to drive it another 800,000 kms for another moment like that

I do not have twitter. But thanks so much for sharing those links!

Apparently Jr's road manager Mike Hoag and maybe spotter TJ Majors spotted the BudChev in traffic early Sunday morning!

I was totally oblivious in traffic. I can't even figure out where we would have been at that time. If he had rolled down the window to shout out I would not have recognized Mike Hoag or TJ Majors myself. That would have left me kinda stupid feeling now, so I'm glad he didn't. I might recognize TJ's voice though - I'm always using the scanner.

My wife has twitter, so we might get on there and respond later
