I'm done

Alas, finally someone stepped up and said they want to go to the track and seemed to genuinely mean it, too bad the season is over but it will give me all winter to get their anticipation up for next season. I'm not holding my breath all winter though.

What I found is most want to go but are unwilling to travel, if it were in their backyard they'd go but don't ask them to climb the fence. A good friend goes to Fayetteville Motor Speedway almost weekly but, when I asked him to drive 1/2 hour more to Dublin Speedway that meant he would get home 1/2 hour later. Too bad, so sad, I don't have time for whiners, pigskins, or NASCAR, my loyalty lies with my local tracks and drivers. As for football, if you take away the fancy helmets and spandex pants all you have is some over grown jock throwing a leather ball and another doofuss running around carrying the ball, it's really juvenile in the end.

I've been inviting people to go to the track with me for years and it seems they always find an excuse to back out. Is it they just don't care to watch racing or, is it they can't be honest that they just really don't want to go but don't have the nads to tell me ? What I'm thinking is they do like racing but are too lazy to go or, don't want to stay up too late or, have no ambition or, they think they know everything there is to know about racing. Maybe that hate my guts but won't tell me?

What the real question is, what the heck do people do with their Saturday nights? I know they aren't out clubbin`they're all married, I just don't get it, have we gotten so boring that the only thing that excites us anymore is Jeff Dunham releasing his new ventriloquist comedy?

What are your thoughts?

Another NASCAR Substance Abuse Suspension


General

I experimented with marijuana a time or two but, I never inhaled, did not like, and never tried it again. Oh, wait, I'm thinking of someone else.

Define substance abuse, because I might do it every time I go to the track, I inhale a lot of exhaust fumes and really like the way it smells.

Tell Me About Yourself


General

I wake up too early. For example: It's 5am on a Saturday and I'm on racersreunion.com

MRN vs ESPN2 Announcers


General

Dave, I agree with the woman reporters, they do a very good job of reporting, so far they've had a lot of tact in the way they ask the dumb questions that all pit reporters are know to do from time to time like, "What do you see out there?"

MRN vs ESPN2 Announcers


General

Patty, I stand corrected, it's Alan Bestwick on ESPN however, in my opinion he still does not cut the mustard like MRN...call me bias but MRN really cranked it up Tuesday like none other.

MRN vs ESPN2 Announcers


General

Pete, you could probably tune in on your PC, if you have a laptop and a new LCD or plasma TV you can plug your PC into the TV for better sound...I'm thinking it would work anyway?

When we use to go the track to watch nascar I always took a headset radio to listen to MRN, much more fun than listening to the scanner.
