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

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.
