Budweiser shootout leaves me thirsty for more!
Hello all,
Michael Clark here ready to blog away!
First things first, the Budwieser Shootout on Saturday night left me thirsty for more!! A few notables from the race, obviously the main storyline Dale Jr in the new 88 National Guard car for Hendrick is going to be a force this year. Usually when i see the 24 and 48 in Dale Jr's rear view i get this "oh no" feeling, now they are pushing him to victory. It must be said that although Dale Jr looked dominant on Saturday night, he did get by with a little help from his (new) friends.
How tough does Tony Stewert look in his Toyota Camry? Smoke was driving the wheels off the thing in the last 20 laps. Toyota is doing something right in the horsepower dept. The 20, with little to no help from the other racers was able to stay up front all race. In fact if the yellow flag had not been waived i don't think the 88 would have got by him.
Gotta love that double file restart the shootout employs.
I just can't stop looking at the 9 car, which looks sharp as an arrow in that new skin.
Mark Martin in the 8 could have a great year. He and Martin Truex Jr. could give DEI life after Dale!
Sorry Carl Edwards, i have followed your career since the truck series, when it was win or go home, you won, did your famous back flip, earned sponsors, and the rest is history. I love the back flip and all, but as a New Yorker i can no longer in good conscience root for you. Ever since Roush racing teamed up with those Fenway folks, i have been unfaithful. That goes the same for you Kenseth , Biffle, and Mcmurray!!!
thats all for now,
looking forward to the twin 150's, and of course the Great American Race!!
