Give me an estimate. How much "actual race watching" did you do?

Sitting in the RV with a beer watching the big screen does NOT count.

What part of the track were you sitting?

My only race was Darlington 2004. Our seats were the first row, middle of the backstretch. We could only see from the middle of turn 1-2 to the middle of turn 3-4. But we were about 10 feet from the fence. It was pretty damn cool the first time all the cars drove by at full speed.

Most fan friendly sport EVER. The fact I can bring beer and sammiches makes it all the better.

Congratulations. I hope you hate Carl Edwards as much as me now.

He does look like a douche crossed with Mr. Ed.

I've been to a couple of races at Talledega, had a fun time but the place is so damn big you can't see everything. I plan on going to the IRL race in April in Birmingham, which will be my first open wheel race.

I enjoyed the Vegas race. It's the perfect weekend getaway if you want to watch a race and do other things.

You would have gotten to see another awesome Atlanta finish untill Carl edwards went into a roid rage and ruined the race.

I am doing all three weekends at Texas again this year. It is a combo Mardi Gras and Tailgating with some racing mixed in.

Even with that it was a great finish.

I bet Edwards drops a few notches in respect from some drivers no matter how much they dislike Keslowski.

Keselowski is a punk, but I really don't think he was at fault yesterday and carl's retaliation was totally uncalled for. If you really wanted to frick with him do it at bristol in two weeks, not when you're 200 laps down and he's running like 7th. That shite was dirty to the max. It's what I used to do on Playstation
