Hi folks, I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

This week, take a look at the past year in racing over at Georgia Racing History.com .

With the New Year just ahead, it's time to take a moment to look back at a few of the stories and moments that made 2011 one to remember. From Trevor Bayne's victory at Daytona to Bubba Pollard's incredible season, 2011 was a racing year that won't be forgotten anytime soon. You can read more over at Georgia Racing History.com .

Happy Birthday wishes go out this week on Jan. 1 in memory of Ed Samples (1921-1991) and on Jan. 3 to Henley Gray.

Thanks everybody, and have a Happy New Year!
