        <i>"NASCAR chairman Brian France is trying to keep his legal troubles secret – and Mecklenburg courts have so far granted him an extraordinary level of privacy.<br />
<br />
France filed a civil complaint against his ex-wife. Lawyers persuaded Mecklenburg Judge Todd Owens to seal the court file from public inspection, an unusual move in a court system that typically allows widespread access to courtrooms and documents.<br />
<br />
On Friday, France's attorneys petitioned a Mecklenburg judge to bar the public from the courtroom as arguments in the case unfold. It's unclear exactly what the dispute involves, but the matter is being heard in family court and apparently involves domestic issues."</i><br />
<br />
This is how John Edwards got so much traction a few years ago with his "two Americas" speech (a bit hypocritical on his part, since he was part of that "other" America, but that's another forum <img src="http://www.speedtv.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" />).  Good luck to anyone else trying to get all the details of a civil suit like this sealed.<br />
<br />
<i>"It's not unusual for judges to seal some documents, such as sensitive records involving mental health and financial holdings. But court experts say it's extremely rare that an entire file, including a judge's order sealing it, is kept from the public."</i><br />

        Keselowski isn't making any friends, especially after the little Nationwide race incident with Denny, which he isn't thrilled about.....<br />
<a href="http://www.nascar.com/video/busch/2009/11/14/nns.pho2.high.seven.nascar/index.html">http://www.nascar.com/video/busch/2009/11/14/nns.pho2.high.seven.nascar/index.html</a><br />
Love how Denny says "I'll take care of it". <img src="http://www.speedtv.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" /> <br />
 Is Keselowski being too agressive? I think he may be trying a bit too hard to pay back some of these guys. These rivalries are good for Nascar, though. Wonder if this will carry over to the Cup side? <img src="http://www.speedtv.com/images/smileys/hmm.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="hmmm" style="border:0;" />

I never went anywhere else to look for stuff all season and had a great time when I was able to participate during races.  When I couldn't, I went back and looked through them as soon as I could.  What a great job!  Thank you so much for all the effort you put into the season.  I hope you do it all again next year.

        First, a little background. I live in a townhouse, and I've recently been trying to purge a lot of junk, and re-organize my garage. I built a new workbench and put up a lot of shelving. One of the things I dug out is my 1981 XR 80. I bought it when I started racing in 1990 to use as a pit bike. It was pretty ratty and had a flat in the rear, but it started so I gave the lady $75 for it. Pulled the tube on the rear with the idea of patching it and found the valve stem base was ripped. I cut a donut out of an old tube and rubber cemented it around the valve stem. It was still holding in 2003...the last time I rode it.This is a bike that not only was used as a pit bike, but spent hours on single track in the woods, dirt tracking in the sand pits, and many wheelie contests and a few jumping contests. All with adults in the 150-190 lb range. Because of it's age, it had a built in rev limiter. Hold it wide open, and it would hit a point, even in first or second, where it just wouldn't pull any more revs. It got an oil change once a year, and has been run with only the mesh screen in the airbox since about 1992 when the last of the air filter rotted away. It did not have an easy life.<br />
Back to the present... I pulled it out, and was debating if I should keep it. I don't really have room for it, and it's been sitting in that corner with half a tank of gas for at least 6 years.I must have put Sta-bil in the tank because there was still something in the tank that smelled kinda like gas. I decided to turn on the petcock and kick it...nothing. Just for ha ha's I put it in second, gave it a shove and let the clutch out. It started right up, and dropped into a steady idle. Unbelievable. I won't be getting rid of it. Time to teach another generation how to ride on it. These things never die.
