The way it used to be is win on Sunday and sell on Monday.  I will always be a fan I just enjoy watching racing at least stock car.  If it is open wheel it has to be on dirt.  I grew up in north east Minnesota watching my dad and uncle race on a dirt track there.  They raced against guys like Dick Trickle and Red Farmer.  Anyone go to any local tracks here.  I want to go to the Monroe track and Skagit.

i hope monroe still has the trucks & what used to be winston west. awsome track but i think the man there was Roy Smith in the day. finished 5th at daytona? dont remember what year but he was an awsome guy & I think his son raced there also.

[Russ McDonald]

I am probably going to try and go this year.  I think they call the K&N west series now.

I took these at the March race.





Kyle having a bad day



Just how I like to see Jeff Gordon finish a race! 



Carl Edwards having a bad day as well

awsome picts. so close to the action.
Russ, i dont mean to be rude & ruin any memories you have, but while trickle dick was a good racer he was no friend of mine.( he was good)

[Russ McDonald]

No worries gaddy.  I don't remeber much of him anyway.  Was like about 3 years old...Machias awesome pics....seeing a live NASCAR event is awesome to colors on the cars just are amazing live.  Even HD tv doesn't do it justice.  Got some awesome pics when I went to Sear Point and some good ones in Vegas.  I even got Ryan Newman, Matt Kennseth and Jimmie Johnson's autograph when I was in Vegas in 2002.  I believe that was JJ's rookie year.

[gaddy]
