Just would like to let everyone know that we have some of the greatest fans around..... today 3 volunteers showed up at our shop... washed the rig inside and out ... mounted tires, cleaned our car and even polished some of it.... among other chores..... we cannot thank them enough as this lets us concentrate on other aspects of the racing and not literally wear ourselves out the night of the race... thanks to all of you...don short

I sat next to a lady at the action track last night that yelled at a bunch of people a few rows down from us that were standing up on a restart. She said SIT DOWN NASCAR FANS SO We CAN SEE!!!!!!!!!!
She did a good job as not one of the people stood up anymore!
My Kinda Fan!!

Man, that's something you could get used to, right?

As a manager of a bowling center for just about 20 years, I've been around people from all walks of life, including both blue and white collar. It has been my experience, that race people are hands down the best people you'll ever meet anywhere. Hard working, friendly, quick with a joke, down to earth and eager to give a helping hand if needed.

I feel incredibly fortunate to have met so many great people from all over the country at the races. I made a few more friends this past week in Indiana and I look forward to making more in the future.

Jeff
