Been about 5 years since I made it to the track, I forgot how much walking was involved 😮

Vickers, Johnson and Biffle all looked strong to me as did Kyle Busch. Childress cars and all the Dodges except Kahne looked and sounded like shit.

Gordon blew up right where I was sitting, that was pretty sweet to hear it pop at the top of the RPM band.

Forgot how loud that shit was too, next year I am gonna get a booth selling TheSpread.com ear plugs ;D

You going back for happy hour ?

I use to get my best info from watching all the practices and listening in on the radio of drivers I liked so I could find out what they were working on the most.

No way bro, that place was already getting nuts at 11am yesterday, today it will be a zoo.

I am in for Friday's and that's it. You won't catch me within 200 miles of that place the rest of the weekend.

One thing I was surprised to see was the amount of old women there. I would of never expected to see so many, I thought I was at bingo for a minute.

I have read a few times that the traffic in and out of MIS is a nightmare. 😀

Nightmare is putting it mildly. Last time I went to an actual race it took me longer to get home than the actual race took.

The RV's really got it bad. My buddy took one last August and didn't get home until after midnight.
