        Last night I was riveted to the screen.  What an amazing drive by McNish.....it was legendary.  Starting 2 laps behind (without a <img src="http://www.speedtv.com/images/smileys/wink.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="wink" style="border:0;" /> lucky dog) fought like hell and on team orders assumed the lead to win a 10 hour race.<br />
<br />
Fast forward to today.  I watched the last 25 laps of talladega.  Congrats Edwards you are da man!  While I am certain you are an amazing driver you made millions happy by triggering the big one.  We all watch nascar for the hilarious, though at times loss of breath, crashes we watch all other series for racing. WWF on wheels!  Blocking is da schizz!!!   Screw yas all!!  <img src="http://www.speedtv.com/images/smileys/smile.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="smile" style="border:0;" /><br />
<br />
It must be a gas to be the butt of jokes, but without any pride you  count green all night........for now.<br />

        Hello all, first let me explain the die bernie thing.  I want Bernie Ecclstone to go away.  Not die of course but move aside for someone new.  The die bernie moniker was all I could think of at the moment of registering!  Of course I wish no ill will on anyone, not even RISDO!  That said as much as Bernie has done for F1 he's done as much for himself.  At $5 Billion US dollar in wealth!!! I would like to see Bernie redeem himself to me.  Hey...it's my blog!<br />
Thinking back through the 2008 F1 season thus far, Silversone, Spa, and Monza are the clear stand outs as far as actual racing is concerned...what a treat...thanks Speed for giving them to us...even with David Hobbs but that's another forum.<br />
What I think Bernie should do to redeem his soul is to give us back those long lost circuits that didn't survive the wonderful yet deadly 50's - 70's era of Grand Prix racing!  In fact, or fiction maybe...I believe some of those circuits did not survive directly due to Bernie.  <br />
Lets dream for a moment and capture in our minds Kimi or Lewis or Felipe flying around a safe old circuit for the EU GP instead of an overblown kart track in Valencia.  Just imagine modern F1 at places like Clermont Ferrand, the Nurburgring north circuit, or how about back to the "Glen" or St. Jovite?  Zandvoort, Brands Hatch and maybe even Laguna Seca!  <br />
Why die Bernie?  Aside from him needing to retire, he needs to dip into his massive wealth <span style="color:blue;">and he could if he wanted to</span> and put a fraction into making an old circuit safe and let F1 do what it was meant...race on fast circuits with hills, valleys and history...just like Monza, Spa and Silverstone! Real circuits for real men!  <br />
<br />
Bye!

        Here is a question I am presenting to all here.  Which driver would you have liked to see run in a race?  This driver would be "before your time."  Meaning he ran in races before you could have gotten to see him.<br />
<br />
My choice, Duke Nalon running at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in the Novi Special.  As you see from my name, I have an affection for these cars.  Mr. Nalon was one of those who created the legend of the Novi.

        Justin Allgaier pulled off the win (I guess it must've been an impressive pass but I was just on live scoring on arcaracing.com and didn't have sound) and I think that puts him 110 points back with one race to go, mathematically still in it with an outside chance.<br />
<br />
But Scott Speed stretched his points lead and barring disaster looks good to get the championship.

        I was wondering what the ARCA rule was about the age of the car; last year i remember some teams running Pontiacs when NASCAR says that it must be at 3 years or newer. does anyone know what the maximum age is for a car? thanks

        While looking for pictures of the Clancy 6 wheel Indy Car, I came across this site.  Has a lot of interesting reading on racing before and a little after WWII.  There are a couple of pages on board track racing.  And, statistics from a lot of years.<br />

        The ARCA race at NJMP was pretty disappointing.  Stopping the race with 19 laps to go seemed like everyone in race management just wanted to get it over with.  It was a very light scattered rain with patches of blue sky around the track.  I overheard discussion on race control frequency that the fans were being shafted because of the decision (not that there were that many fans there).  It was a litte after 3:00 PM and there apparrently is no time limit for the race.  The Formula BMW race scheduled for after the ARCA race had already been canceled to load the containers for Brazil.  Andy Lally and Scott Speed were the class of the field and were working their way back to the front after pit stops.  Maybe it is a way to tighten the points race.  Just dissappointing to see such good efforts cut off by an impatient race management.  <br />
