NHRA: February 2008 Archives
Hi, I’m Adam Kraemer, the newest contributor. A few things I'm
thinking about today:
NASCAR Drivers are eager to get back and we can’t wait either! You always know when the
season’s about to start up because the sponsors kick it into high gear. Just
look at Hershey’s Dale Sr. tribute, Ritz cracker’s partnership with Roush, the Gillette Young Guns thing, and
– my personal favorite – Carl Edwards wearing the Claritin blues. (He’s
actually an allergy sufferer, they say, and we're happy he's not driving
drowsy. See pic above.)
Speaking of partnerships, contributor Lewis Franck has his own blog. Check it
out here. Good luck with
the blog, Lewis!
There's also a good discussion on ROWDY.com going on about who is your
favorite driver. Who do you like in 2008?
I’m also thinking about the so-called “Car of Tomorrow.” A few drivers said
last year that their crews were stretched a little thin having to keep two
separate cars in condition. This year, it’s all CoT all the time, so things
might run a little smoother. Harvick – I’m lookin’ at you.
Speaking of the CoT - apparently now called the "winged car" or
something - the Budweiser Shootout's tomorrow. Click here
to see the lineup. I can't wait.
And for those of you who like non-American races, you’ll never guess who
took the fastest F1 times in
Oh, and if any of you are in Pomona, Calif., right now, you’ve got a much
better chance than the rest of us to see the National Hot Rod Association. I
suggest you head over to the raceway. And send me some photos!
Nice meeting you. See ya’ next week.
