The NASCAR Thread

My driver(#3) was inductee in the inaugral class & the only time I was in the Charlotte area I made it a point to go visit DEI. I made sure to get some souvenirs(#3 hard hat, Goodwrench pit shirt & t-shirt).

Right person?

As in someone that will let a noob tag along asking informative questions about the sport. I don't have any locals like that. They are just Superfans and are not open to helping me understand it without trying to pressure me into liking their driver.

 

[02civicsi]

That's a shame but that doesn't surprise me because we are EXTREMELY loyal to our drivers. I've had a #3 sticker on every car I've owned & will for as long as I am alive on this planet. I don't ever try to pressure noobs to liking my driver because that's just closeminded & stupid.

 

[LizBot]

I understand loyalty but it can be a bit much.

 

[02civicsi]

If you've never been to a race then you have no clue how loyal we are.

I'm going to attempt to make it out to the Bank of America 500 in October. I'm a little scared to be honest.

 

[02civicsi]

It's a night race too so that's awesome. Why you skeered for? I've gone to Daytona by myself & met people from all over this country.

 

[LizBot]

A lot of drunk people *tailgating all day anyone?* watching a 3 hour race that is key for the Chase...

 

[02civicsi]

Sounds like a day of fun to me, don't be skeered Liz

 

[LizBot]

Fineeeee. I'll think about it.

So are you going to watch the induction ceremony on tv?

 

[02civicsi]

Don't overthink it, it's fun trust me & seeing 43 V-8's screaming around a track is awesome.

Sadly I am away from a TV so I will miss the ceremony.

 

[LizBot]

I'm sure SPEED re air it again soon.

Watching playoff ice hockey

 

[LizBot]

Whose winning?

 

[02civicsi]

3-1 Boston just scored an empty net goal & there is only about 12secs left in the 3rd period

 

[LizBot]

How many periods are there?

 

[02civicsi]

Game over Boston won 3-1 & there are 3 periods in ice hockey.

Yellow LFA probably looked like a Yellow M&M on the road going that face. I hope he enjoys being license less. NC is bru-tal about wreckless driving.

I wish they would have taken his butt to jail. Any normal person would have been. I can't stand him.

Seriously, I know right?
