2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Eight Bristol
It’s raining in Bristol. They’re doing a few features and driver interviews during the rain delay. The race was renamed in honor of Steve Byrnes to the “FOOD CITY 500 IN SUPPORT OF STEVE BYRNES AND STAND UP TO CANCER“. Get well Byrnesy!!! We miss you desperately. Your professionalism, talent, skills and fun are unmatched leaving NASCAR programming lacking. It was lovely to see all the crews holding up signs that read ‘I Stand Up For Steve‘.
The Gordon kids, Ella and Leo, gave the command to start engines standing next to their Papa’s car. It was sweet. Continue reading “2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Eight Bristol”
2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Seven Texas
So, Texas tonight after a weekend off. The Easter break always seems to come too quickly too me – too early in the season to be taking a break. Happy Birthday Kasey Kahne. Kasey turned 35 Friday. Get well Steve Byrnes. Byrnsey was released from ICU. He’s dealing with pneumonia and blood clots on top of everything else. Sigh. Michael Waltrip is wasting time with his stupid track walk or whatever its called. I don’t understand why it continues, but then again I don’t get why he still has a job doing anything broadcast related at this point. The only entertaining part of that is when the drivers are honest with him and call him on his stupidity. It’s ridiculous. No More Michael Waltrip PLEASE!!!

2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Six Martinsville
The cold temperatures we’ve been experiencing the past few days seem to have moved up to the Martinsville area. Apparently it was in the 20s this morning. Race Day included a nice piece on Sherry Pollax, Martin Truex Jr.’s partner looking at her battle with cancer. Byrnesy had a PET scan this week and his wife tweeted it was not the results they were hoping for, so a new round of treatments begin.
Best Health Sherry and Steve Byrnes! Continue reading “2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Six Martinsville”
