  1. Old News. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  2. Misty water cooler memories of Dan Quayle
  3. What once was important to feel "accepted" is no longer an issue with me. I like everywhere i go, and prefer no where in particular. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  4. 7 Mag, minimum. 300 wonchester if ya got it. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  5. I can tell you the driver's were skepitical about the track surface being hot and running the Hossiers during qualifying. They voiced their concerns before getting in their cars. Good Year doesn't have anything to say about what kind of tires the cars run. NasCar dictates that, just like everything else. There have been a lot of tire failures that have been causing the drivers to hit the wall a TON. Stewart broke his clavical week before last at Lowes Motor Speedway, in fact. He cracked it in the Busch Race, Then finished it off in the Nextel Race. I've looked around for a news story about the tire brand change and can't find one, i'll keep digging. I do know i saw Pre and post qualifying interviews with Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart and Dale Jr. and they were aprehensive about the tire, but after the took the green - white - checkered they said the Hoosiers stuck better than they thought. As far as stats, throw em' away. The tire inflation is dictated by NasCar only at Lowe's Motor Speedway. Crew Cheifs get suspended every week for "Acts Detrimental To Stock Car Driving" Chad Knaus, Todd Berrington and just last week Jeff Burton's Crew Cheif got suspended. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  6. NasCar Dot Com Click on the URL and you can see what's happening currently. Gordon's qualifying right now! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  7. I added the schematic of the track in .pdf format in the first post, and a .jpe of Dale Jr's cr in this post.
  8. I'm watching Nextel Cup Qualifying right now with Track Pass. It's not the worst thing that ever happened!
  9. He is a good person. He justs isn't always politically correct. (Hell, i'm not either far as that goes) He and i speak on the phone occasionally and have always been friends. We had a blast years ago when we both jumped SDSL in Rosharon. I hated it when he moved away, but a man's got to do what a man's got to do. I plan on going to the WFFC and look forward to seing him there. --Richard-- -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"

  11. No. The main reason i don't is because a lot of people, including me are not as they appear on the DZ as they appear on dropzone.com There's something about a keyboard that allows the alter ego to come out in all of us. Notice, i said ALL of us. I've had a lot of people come up to me and say, are you REALLY the guy on dropzone.com? I just blow it off. I have a couple of really good friends who are now banned for life on this site, trust me, when they are on the DZ, they are not the same person they are on here. R*ino is a prime example. I've never met a more prime example of a stellar American than him. Yeah he's got his faults, who dont?? "Let him who is without sin cast the first stone" O.K. O.K. go and collect your rocks.
  12. That second shot shoes the guy in the middle deploying with line twists. Excellent depictions of tracking though! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  13. Not hardly. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  14. Geez....Talk about a total malfunction. How drastic. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  15. I haven't been there in years. Great jump ship, great staff! Cool vibes. It was great seeing old friends again. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  16. Is that for real? Funny SOAB!
  17. Not Yet! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  18. That would be ULTIMATE if it was equipped with a HUD unit! Not having to look at the dash is very helpful. You can maintain way more concentration on your driving and shifting as well. Plus not looking at your speedometer at 130 MPH is good! -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  19. Does your car, or that particular model come equipped, or is an option available for a HUD as well? Just curious. (Heade Up Display) -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  20. I'm still following this story on CNN, and i just heard the sirens of police being dispatched to the site, the G-3 level in the Rayburn Building. It's going to be interesting to see how this plays out. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  21. If the cat did that, i wouldn't have any more problem with it! J/K - i love animals. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  22. Roll up a tv guide and slap her gently on the end of the nose and tell her "NO!" This should put a stop to this type of behaviour. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
  23. That car has "Paddle Shift?" It's an automatic, right? I've got paddle shift in one of my new cars, it's way cool. -Richard- "You're Holding The Rope And I'm Taking The Fall"
