I'm still here
>> Thursday, May 08, 2008
It's been so nice here in New Jersey, the last thing on my mind was blogging. And I still don't feel like blogging, so I'll just ask you some questions and hopefully I'll get at least one response.
1. Now that Darlington has been re-paved, do you think there will be side by side racing this weekend or will it be the same 'ol same 'ol?
2. Speeds in the straightaways are approaching 200 mph on the newly re-paved Darlington track, do you think that will produce some major pile ups or are you taking the wait and see approach?
3. Do you believe Kyle Busch's driving is similar to how Dale Sr. drove?
4. Do you think that Dale Jr. has real good chance of winning at Darlington this weekend?
It would be wonderful to hear from all my readers, but if I can't get all of you to respond, a few would be nice.
1. I think the racing will be better than other years because there is more grip to the new surface.
2. I hope not ~ I don't like to see pile ups.
3. Junior said Kyle is similar to his Dad when he first started in the late 80's. And then he changed. I agree.
4. Of course I do ~ I always think he has a chance to win at any given venue. Ya gotta believe, girl.
1. There will be some incidents early in the race until the drivers settle down some, then it will revert to caution and patience. Faster doesn't always mean better.
2. Maybe not a big one, but there will be mistakes made, and there will be more than a Darlington stripe that some cars get. Like I said in 1, they will settle down after some of the first incidents.
3. Yes, a little. I think he is more like Greg Biffle with more brass and guts, and maybe better car control.
4. Yes. He hasn't won there yet, but he does have 2 top fives and eight top tens. It will be a car control guy who wins, and Jr is one of the best.
