WALL STADIUM & INDY TIRES

A couple of notes...

Wall Stadium is back...after no racing last year, the Jersey Shore legend is back with a limited schedule and at least a glimmer of hope for the future...

The Indy Tire test for Goodyear - not good news. The same issue from last year...Now, I wonder, what are they going to do? 10 to 12 lap segments...not the way to run one of the sport's top races....

MARTIN WITH A POPULAR WIN!!!

Mark Martin takes the checkers in a very popular win in Phoenix...gotta give him his due...the #5 team is coming together....another dismal finish for Junior...and the little incident with Casey Mears not helping matters...
It's off the Talledega - who knows what can happen!!!!!

GORDON WINS!

Jeff Gordon gets off the snide and gets a win at Texas, a track he's never won at. Interesting race given the long green run at the beginning and the weather conditions....

Alot has been said already this year about the importance of pit stops and the crucial last one a.k.a. the Money Stop....Carl Edwards knows it now....Kyle Busch, too after a Nationwide race....

Richard Petty Motorsports will try to run the Indy 500....There's an interesting development....the IRL needs some positive news given the lack of names and one driver facing prison for tax evasion...their TV schedule is a joke with ABC only carrying 5 races including Indy...I didn't even know there was a race last weekend until it was over....

A week off for Easter, then Phoenix on Saturday 4/18.....Enjoy...

JIMMIE AT MARTINSVILLE!

#48 gets his act together and wins at Martinsville...a good day for Hendrick....

What has happened to Roush? They are struggling...maybe Texas will be good to them....

The Junior Nation is getting a bit impatient....the #88 better start producing or they will be very unhappy....
