I can almost see Jerry riding around in that Corvette doing his Stars Radio show riding the pace lap doing an on track report just before the green flag. Now thats Visions

S.T.A.R.S. Radio "Live" from Love Chevy

That Green Chevy would look real good with the number "51" on the side of it and a Racers Reunion Logo on rear Quarter Panels along with Stars Radio on front fenders . Just think about that for a moment. That could easly become reality with a little P/R work in the right place

lets see how they fare at the boiling bowl Sunday.Thats a track that cant be driven clean, so fingers are always pointing there and tongues will be wagging too. Hope they cleaned the steps off to the bldg out back. It may just get used for more than one meeting of the social group we call Nascar Four syllables huh?? May have to take a breather inbetween those last two to spit or??? Pete Banchoff said:

Yup Johnny, I think the announcers on these racing shows can't pronounce anything over 3 syllables, Keselowski is 4.LOL. I agree that Brad has a strong cage and I don't see any driver now that can rattle it. If anyone can shake him it might be Roger Penske, but I think he'll guide Brad, not dictate driving.

You got it Pete I will get on the Boogity Woogity boys pronto and refer your version of his name to him meanwhile you got to give him credit for having a strong cage because I dont think cuzzin Carl rattled it Sunday, he seems to say hmmm what was that , Did I just hit Digger?? Pete Banchoff said:

Johnny, a Keselowski won't back down. I watched Brad's Uncle Ron and Dad Bob race and if Brad follows in their footsteps, if he gets pushed he will push back. As far as retaliation, we'll see in the next couple of races. He won't change his driving style. Also, I 'm getting really irritated with the pronunciation of Brad's last name. Please tell the brilliant announcers it's Kes-el-owski not Kezlowski. Man, guys, get it right...it's not that tough!

All you masterminds out there that can cure the common skip in a Lawnmower motor read this because----.This might be the new crowd pleaser that Nascar is needing for filling the standsRichard Petty, David Pearson, Darrell Waltrip, Bobby Allison, Cale Yarborough, Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt and Rusty Wallace all used their bumpers to win races.And, in the process, they all wrecked a fellow driver or two, stirring up controversy and drawing the ire of rivals who wanted revenge.And, in turn, they all found themselves on the other end of the spectrum, getting shoved into the wall while racing for a win, or in retaliation for their own aggressive actions.During the course of a friendly race , most of them wound up in heated feuds with each other Petty and Allison, Allison and Yarborough, Yarborough and Waltrip, Waltrip and Wallace, Waltrip and Earnhardt, Earnhardt and Wallace, Earnhardt and Gordon, Gordon and Wallace just to name a few.Some, like Earnhardt who always said I just wanted to rattle his cage a little, were known as much for their aggressive, roughhouse tactics as for their skill behind the wheel and their ability to win.But, in the end, they all wound up among NASCARs greatest drivers, ranking on the all-time win list.They won races and championships by racing hard, being aggressive and not worrying much about who they angered or who they shoved aside to get to the front or win a race.And, in the process, they became some of the most popular and most respected racers in NASCAR history.So why all the fuss about Brad Keselowski?Isnt he just trying to do the same thing?Isnt he showing the same spunk and aggressive nature as just about every young star that has entered the sport with great bravado and the talent to back it up?But Keselowski is quickly becoming one of the sports biggest villains, with driver after driver wanting a piece of him and fans turning against him for frequent run-ins with established stars.Many blame him for the incident that prompted Carl Edwards to retaliate at Atlanta Motor Speedway March 7 and took Edwards side when he was placed on probation for three races.But, despite the outrage and the current perception of Keselowski, hes not doing anything young, aggressive stars before him didnt do.Keselowski entered his first full season in NASCARs Sprint Cup Series this year with a ton of talent and a reputation as one of the sports most aggressive drivers, one who had already ruffled some feathers with his win-at-all-cost attitude.Though he has won six Nationwide Series races and one Cup race in the past two years, it has come with a price a bounty on his head,so does this mean that the cameras need to be set up on the backstretch to catch the newest installment on trackside discussions. Only time will tell.Denny Hamlin vowed to wreck him in retaliation for a series of run-ins in the Nationwide Series last year and he did, spinning Keselowski in the season finale at Homestead.Now Edwards, who wound up on the wrong end of Keselowskis bumper more than once last year, has gotten his revenge, sending Keselowski airborne and into the wall at Atlanta in retaliation for contact earlier in the race.Edwards sent Keselowski a clear message a message not unlike ones delivered and received by the top drivers throughout the history of the sport.The message was this: Keselowski needs to tone down his aggressiveness, learn a bit of give and take on the track and show more respect toward more experienced, established drivers.The question now is, how will Keselowski respond to the message?Will he back down and tone down his act?Or will he continue to fight tooth and nail for every position on the track and use his fender when someone blocks him, crowds him or races him hard?Will he heed the advice of Edwards and other drivers and show a bit more caution and respect on the track?Or will he be the same aggressive, stubborn driver that has gotten him into hot water with other competitors?And, in the process, will he try to get even with Edwards?Keselowski, one of the sports most cerebral drivers, doesnt seem to have revenge on his mind, but he certainly doesnt plan to back down, either.To be honest, thats probably the best revenge there is to not let it get to me one bit, to not change, Keselowski said in an interview last week with SceneDaily.com. In a way, thats a sign to [Edwards] and everyone else that thats not going to work on me.... Ill come back the next race weekend and drive just as hard just to prove a point that I wasnt wrong and I still dont feel like Im wrong.Keselowski may not go to Bristol Motor Speedway this week looking for revenge against Edwards, and he may not be laying in wait for Hamlin, but he also doesnt plan to change his aggressive style.The thought in my mind is to do absolutely nothing at all, Keselowski says, to not change, to continue to drive my cars as hard as I can and try to win races ... .Like him or not, that is a good thing. Keselowski shouldnt back down. In fact, NASCAR needs more drivers like him.Keselowski is not the first young driver to stir up controversy and ruffle feathers by entering the Cup series full of piss and vinegar and determined to challenge the sports biggest stars.So did Waltrip and Earnhardt.This may be the Old Nascar showing up to the party wearing a new suit and top hat,but waving a flag saying I'm Back Y'all

TRIVIA QUESTION

Stock Car Racing History

There is a story told about this, as the car was setting in the shop one night late they were drinking coffee and set one cup on the trunk lid while a wall fan was running and the steam was swirling on the trunk in a circular motion. Smokey took a piece of cardboard and laid it there on the trunk to see what happened and the rest is history. A real piece of scientific knowledge was uncovered by Smokey that night. But dont tell Robin Pemberton that or he will outlaw coffee in the shops while fans are running. Now write this down because unless you read the book you wont know -----------------------------------memories

Well the monk in tim i dont know--- Friar tuck was a monk of sorts he became a legend with robin hood but i just cant picture Sir Timmy in a MooMoo or how ever you spell it-- i can see him humming--saw him singing at mgr-- he hums a lot and does funny things with his hat but his hair is a little long---------------B U T who ever told him Red Line 7000 was a great movie true there were a couple of scenes in there where i think it was racing back in the day but all in all i dont think tim is the monk type monkee maybe but he has his corner in life and it sure isnt going around with a MOOMOO on ---------------- not yet at least he does have a vital part in life though,he is part of the magnificent "7"
