Judge dismissed Mayfield's suit against NASCAR so essentially the saga is over

it aint over.
Quote : | "NASCAR last June countersued Mayfield and accused him of willfully violating its substance abuse policy, breaching his contract and of defrauding NASCAR and its competitors of earnings.
"At this point, nothing has changed on that matter," NASCAR said Tuesday of its countersuit. "We will evaluate our options going forward."

anyone ever been to a race at the Brickyard? I've got a friend moving out there and I am trying to decide if it would be worthwhile to plan a trip and head out there for the race. If the Brickyard isn't anything special, I'm just gonna wait til football season and go out there to see a Colts game. so anyone know how the Brickyard is? 5/19/2010 5:03:49 PM |

Where is the best place to get scanners and headsets? I have been borrowing my boss's lately but would like to get a set for me and my wife. 5/20/2010 9:28:36 AM |
nasty_b All American 1183 Posts user info edit post |
i got this one from radio shack about 5 years ago. if you got to ALOT of races it might be worth the money to get a sprint fan view. maybe check ebay for used ones of those but if you just want a scanner i'd go with this.

if you like races that put you to sleep. its gonna be fun to be there about 50 laps. then the novelty of it will wear on you5/20/2010 8:17:16 PM |
erice85 All American 4549 Posts user info edit post |
and if you really go alot, get the headsets with the mics
yeah they are expensive as fuck but its a lot of fun when you can talk to your buddy while the race is going on or if you wanna talk shit to that resident junior fan every group of friends has 5/20/2010 8:51:15 PM |

Just got back a few hours ago from the race. Sat between turns 3 and 4. I'm not sure what to think of the All Star race. On one hand the last 10 laps were exciting. However, the majority of the first 90 laps were kinda bleh. There were some good battles but they got pretty spread out. Thank god for the 10 lap shootout segment. I wouldn't mind it if they went back to the old 30/20/10 format. At least get rid of the 50 lap segment.
The Showdown was decent. Good for Truex.
Kahne's car was terrible. Too bad. Hopefully the team steps up for the 600. I'll be at that one and the nationwide race next weekend. 5/23/2010 2:46:44 AM |

did you sit in the toyota stands. Kyle busch is such a bitch cock sucker. i cant believe he blew up at denny. mother fucker drove the car into the wall on his own accord. someone needed to turn denny around cause he was shit on all the restarts. 5/23/2010 12:15:30 PM |
Floridaman All American 507 Posts user info edit post |
Yeah the turn four terrace. Our seats are in the same area for the 600 also.
The Hamlin move was similar to what Jimmie Johnson did to Harvick at California. It was funny to watch the replays of Kyle Busch blowing up. 5/23/2010 6:09:32 PM |

the thing that got me was seeing him in the JRM car last night, I think rick was like umm your not wasting my equiptment on this race.
what if jr and jimmy where to switch chassis for one race. 5/24/2010 9:26:06 PM |

so did you watch the entire induction ceremony? theresa earnhardt sounded like a total idiot to me. she quoted about 10 people and things they had said about dale sr and all the quotes were pretty much the same. they showed shots of the crowd while she was talking and it seemed like people were rolling their eyes or wanting to roll their eyes. the whole thing seemed weird. she makes me
kelley earnhardt would catch a motorboat from nasty_b however 5/25/2010 2:48:19 PM |

Ok we are in Turn 4 Section TFFF rows 9 and 10. I have only been once but from the chart these look like bad seats. I don't even think we can see the start/finish line from there. 5/27/2010 10:25:27 AM |

there's not much if any seating on the backstretch. you might be in the middle of turn 3/4 5/27/2010 1:36:34 PM |

best seats i've ever had were when we went to the all star race in 05 and sat in the ford veranda. relative of mine gave me the tickets. had your own elevator, bathrooms, etc. i would never pay to sit there though i've also sat in General Motors and Ford grandstands. both great seats as well 5/27/2010 5:40:03 PM |
