Canada. And file one under "Not all free countries are as free as others." NASCAR sold its broadcasting rights to ESPN for America, but TSN has all NASCAR rights in Canada. They air the race when they please. And they air it at 11:00 at night.



Even though, I believe Canadians get ESPN too. It's weird.

Hi `Duane, I did not know if it was written or not. I shall ban myself & send myself back to Go-Kart Racing. I knew when I picked him that it was a bad.

There were a few drivers complaining of oil on the track at the end. I didn't hear all post race comments (as I really had to get to bed) but I imagine Kyle Buschit was pretty p!ssed off too!

Junior said he slipped in oil too. I haven't seen him that depressed this year. He ran well. Which I maintain that he often does. But fell apart at the end again...

We've seen Junior do this in years past.... he gets to Daytona or so pretty well, then he falls apart. This year, there is a little different pep in Juniors step, we have a more mature character who is recapturing some of that charisma from the mid 2000s.... so can he rebound going to the only track he has won at in about 4-5 years? Maybe....


With Kyle Busch, it came down to another case of his crew chief being his apologist for him. Kyle Busch got on a golf cart and threw a fake punch at a camera as he was riding off.


The best interviews were between Brad K and Marcos Ambrose though. These two guys raced so hard, hit each other so many times, and neither had a bad word for the other.... just clean, hard racing, and two guys who understand hwo to lean on each other and not wreck each other, and at teh same time keep in mind that th's racing under the circumstances and not wreck each other.

That's basically what both said.... and the more I watch Brad K, the more I like him... I look forward to having him under the Ford umbrella next year!! Going to make him a lot more fun to pick, me think!
