Oh God no....... let him race MORE... the more he is in the seat... the LESS time he has to do TV shows...


Well, he is going to find TV regardless I just wish he would give his seat up to someone who can drive, maybe Josh Wise Grin

Carl in championship form, despite getting beaten by JJ. Kinda reminds me of Mark Martin in 1997, winning 9 races...only to get beaten by Jeff Gordon for the Championship. I just hope Carl's luck is better than Mark's when it comes to the Championship. Smiley

Alan Bestwick in a bigger presence on the NW side....now if they'd just bring him back full-time in the booth on the CUP side, things would be perfect.

Kyle Busch's karma in the Chase...he pushes and shoves, making more enemies than friends on his wall to all those wins....maybe now he understands that Karma is a B$&%^!! LOL Grin

Watching Carl set them on their ears, when they kept proclaiming him not a factor on the short tracks.....winning Bristol YET AGAIN, and a 4th place finish at Martinsville....and ditto for the road courses. He was in contention at one of them until fuel mileage took him out of it....and notice? Now he's won 2 races on fuel mileage. Watch out, he'll continue to set them on their ear as they underestimate him and how quickly he gets to know and understand tracks. Cheesy

Watching Carl take no guff from the Shrub at Bristol, live.

The photos and video of Morgan Sheppard rollerskating at Bristol, I think it was.

Johnny Benson, Truck Champ in the best battle of all 3 series in a long long time.

Those are just a few things...of course, my view is scewed by my Edheadism.  Wink Grin

The whole Truck season

Tony finally winning at Dega

Seeing Tony pass a car for the lead one last time in the 20 car and saying "here kitty kitty kitty".

JJ and Tony battling side by side in the closing laps at Richmond

JJ's 3 peat

Matt K showing some emotion and paying AJ back

I only want to see Rusty racing again just to get him out of the booth...I cringe every time he opens his mouth

Now I think I'll have another...

Quote from Skool in his weekly Top 10 Column on the FS web site

Quote
1. The best thing about the whole 2008 season? Meeting a very special and beautiful Canadian nurse whose favorite driver is the same as mine! At least that will cut down on future arguments on Sunday afternoon as to whose driver is best! Thank you, NASCAR!


Ain't he just the SWEETEST thing...    Cool

I Loved the Fantasy Nascar for 2008. Being in the top-100 at ESPN, Nascarcom, Pepsicom, Fanball, and a 2nd place overall at The Sporting News... Wow...  what a year and alot of $$$ made by me and my son.

Also the Fantasy Racing here at Frontstretch was great !

Hey Stranger!! Good on you!!! I never seem to crack the top 1000, but that's likely due to my picking more by my gut than the numbers...and refusing to pick certain drivers.   Grin

Now if that funding would just come through, and our team could fund a certain up-and-coming Missouri driver......Can you see Jeff's mug on the hood of a dirt modified???  Wink Grin

I think you'd have more chance getting $$$ if BB's mug was on the hood...   LOL
