The recent passing of my friend has ushered in a short period of time where I have experienced much joy. That may sound wrong, so let me explain.
Grumpy is a ‘Car Guy’. Car guys have their own language. We can talk to each other in a form of communication that baffles the ordinary run of [...]
Darlin’ … I’ve had a hard time keeping my mind on anything to do with racin’ while I know you’ve been going through so much lately … so … before I can wrap my mind around the Chase or much else to do with goin’ fast, COT or no COT … I need to offer [...]
Dover Delaware, Greg Biffle lead a 1,2,3 finish for Roush-Sox at the Monster Mile. The closing laps were as good as seen in many weeks of ho-hum races. Biffle who was winless in ‘08 until last week at New Hampshire.
The pre-chase points leader was the first one to the garage today with an expired engine. Kyle Bush [...]
It’s time to move on, I think. Grouchy would want us to carry on. Besides, his favorite driver retired earlier this season. He adopted Dale Jarrett as his favorite after the death of Alan Kulwicki. Jarrett was then driving for Joe Gibbs in the #18 Interstate Batteries Pontiac. When Jarrett moved to Robert Yates Racing, my [...]

They say all 12 chase contenders have a shot to win the cup. Well, maybe so. Grumpy thinks it is down to 3. Kyle Bush, winner of the most races during the regular season, 8 wins are impressive. Carl Edwards with 6 wins and a lot of mojo going into the chase. 2 time and [...]
Fans had to wait until Sunday morning to get clear weather and another great Richmond race. Looks like most of the fans were able to stay around for the race. The grandstands had very few gaps evident on the ESPN coverage.
Jimmie Johnson and the #48 team served notice to the other contenders that the 2 time and [...]
