    Another Busch race, another Harvick victory, another busy week coming up for Steven Wallace's crew at the fab shop. ::)
     
  2. Why is Riki Rachtmen (former MTV V-Jay) on the NASCAR pre-race show on Speed?

    Somethings never change... The SOB is still annoying as hell.

    I saw him in the media center at a race in June and tried to figure out the same thing.

    He's been doing NASCAR stuff for a couple years now.


    That being said, I love road races.

    I am going to pollute this thread with my NASCAR ignorance, but what is the difference between road courses and the other tracks?

    You make right turns on "road" courses - they're like a road instead of an oval that just features left-hand turns.

    Who beat? Can't let this one get off its first page without polluting it with that.

    i.e. road courses have right hand turns.




    Thanks, Moddy.


    And right now, Smoke is beating.

    Long story. But nice try. Let me know when your bitterness abates.
     
  11. Just a joke, Moddy.

    I'm laughing hysterically.

    Go back to thread I, about two-thirds in and you'll get your answer. Find a pompous rant (not by me, for once) and there it is all spelled out.
