Robin Miller, on the video roundtable on champcar.ws, said that he called PC and told him he'd taken a few too many shots to the head if he was willing to turn down the NHR ride to drive for Undera in the .1RL. :laugh: :cry:

I'll bet Mr. Judd is a tad nervous about that grid. Whoremonger on pole, Danicle and Sam just in front........that's a lot of parts to dodge.

What's a Vitor Meira?

The stuff of legend. So's the girl.

I. at the tobes of hades
The tobes of hades
Lit by flickering torchlight
The netherworld is gathered in the glare
Prince Vitor takes the cavern
To the north light
The sign of eth is rising in the air
Vitor, knight of darkness,
Centurion of evil
Devil’s prince

Ii. across the styx
Across the river styx
Out of the lamplight
His nemesis is waiting at the gate
The Ho dog, Honda glowing
In the damp night
Coal-black eyes shimmering with hate
Vitor and the Ho dog
Square for battle
Let the fray begin


Iv. epilogue
The battle’s over
And the dust is clearing
Disciples of the Ho dog sound the knell
Rejoicing echoes
As the dawn is nearing
Vitor in defeat
Retreats to hell
Ho dog is victorious
The land of the overworld
Is saved again.

Question: Are the Texas IRL tickets sold in a NASCAR ticket package or is this a solo for them?

IIRC, they were packaged, but were unbundled when TMS got the second CAB race.

Census data confirms that outside of Indyana, the highest concentration of :gomer:s is in Texas. :gomer: I'll wager there are plenty of red hats in the crowd.

Red cowboy hats make the crowd larger in Texas. Remember, everything is bigger there.

Not too much. I preferred Sesame Street and The Electric Company. I just love my fellow Americans...except for when I don't. :)


Did you hear that guy say that Kite (sp) was out and there were 21 to go? I wonder what he meant by that...

Zoom is still on, and may be the worst of the slew. They do this thing called 'zoom speak' or something like that, And I swear to god, When I hear it...anger overcomes me with the white hot intensity of 1,000 suns. NOTHING on TV makes me more angry more quickly than that *&$@&(&(@)*'s zoomaspeak crap.

As far as attendance.....the front straight looks very well filled. Gotta call em as I see em. The rest of the place isnt even open. But the main grandstands look quite nice, but as the danicle novelty wears off, so do butts from seats. I have to record it for my father in law, otherwise Id have not seen a second of this.

EDIT Danicle was a complete non-factor............finished 13th I beleive.
