Favorite Drivers
D'Nascar Nut

While I have not formed an opinion on any one driver, I must respect a young driver who had his third win this season, Jimmy Johnson.My husband, Phil is very opinionated about his favorite, Dale Earnhardt Jr. now number 88. Does it give our ages away when I say he has Earnhardt collectibles from Senior and now Jr.My daughter Lisa has been a Tony Stewart fan for too many years to think about and now she is thinking of going with bad boy Kyle.My neighbor and friend since school days, Sue (who you will be hearing from on a regular basis I am sure) is a diehard Jeff Gordon fan.Last year Phil and I went to Orlando so that Sue and Phil could go to the race at Daytona. Sue sporting her Gordon Jacket, blanket, hat and seat and Phil in all his Earnhardt gear!! What a funny pair. Before leaving for the race at some point un-noticed Phil turned all Sues' Gorden bears towards the wall and her 24 car turned upside down. All in good Nascar spirit.Every raceday all the houses in our little area fly different colors, at the end of the race if your driver did not win you must fly your flag at half mast.The Chase for the championship is fast approaching and the antics around here sure heat up. November will find us at Phoenix International Raceway as it is almost in our backyard. Maybe you will see me there.
