Just wondering if anyone else is going to watch the race today… and if so what’s on the menu? Also, who’s your fav driver?

We are currently under a Winter Storm Warning… so going to let it snow and blow. Going to watch on a bit of delay as I hate commercials. We will likely start it here at 1 MST.

We have some snacks to munch on and will finish the rest of the Shepards Pie. Might try the smallest cut of Biltong too!

I used to be a hardcore Dale Jr fan… Nicole was the same with Jeff Gordon. I don’t think she has a fav now, but watches with me. If she had to choose I think she leans toward Michael McDowell. There’s a few I like, but lean towards rooting for Ryan Blaney.
 
I like Ross as well. He’s a great driver and watermelon smasher! 😂

I have to say, I miss Mark Martin… what a classy guy!

Watching and waiting for the weather to clear and hopefully they get the Race back going.
Leftovers for dinner....

I'm hoping they get to run soon . Saw them line back up , went out and got firewood ,, and they were parked when I got back in . That has to affect the drivers .

Pot of chili on the stove . Boil some pasta , and grill some number 5 dogs .
Fire in the fireplace .
Go Blaney , or any of the Fords .

Watching... Not cooking... Cocktail in hand... Listening to Scanner

Go Ross Chastain (local boy that I watched come up through) ... We call him Watermelon Boy
I became a Ross fan after I saw his rim ride of death.
That took huge balls and an all or nothing attitude, I love it.
But I'm a Kyle Larson fan for the same reason you're a Ross fan, I saw him race locally for yrs, they used to call him "Duck Bug" if you know, you know.
I left the house when the rain started, and I'm watching it now.

I'm pretty much a NASCAR hater these days, due to the pussification of the rules and the equal cars, half of the sport was watching teams dance around the rulebook, take Hendrix motors with Gordon, and Johnson, without their Chief's they wouldn't have half of the wins they do.


I never used to miss a lap of the races, now I have it on for the big races as background noise. It's more like NAPCAR most of the time these days, until the last 10 laps.
