First post on twitter I saw said the entry list was wrong, Larson is in the car this weekend. (Retweeted by TheOrangeCone but hey, it make sense at least)

Yeah, I saw that as well, but the only entry list I had seen so far (on Jayski - not sure how official that one is) had Larson on it. People are in a tizzy about it though. heheh

The chick who tweeted it was all a mixup works for Turner Scott, so I'll take her word for it and not the other dude's, who oddly enough, states that he "works for NASCAR". Whatever that means.

Here is a link to the article:

http://www.wcnc.com/sports/nascar/NASCAR-driver-charged-with-assaulting-wife-227119971.html

This is unfortunate for read because Travis Kvapil was a driver I rooted for. I couldn't have expected something like this from him.

For an awkward moment, this was posted a few hours before this story broke, and was taken down:

I think all of the names mentioned seem like the most likely choices.

Tennessee and Virginia Tech have agreed to play a football game in 2016 at Bristol Motor Speedway.

https://twitter.com/schadjoe/status/388054755454361600


Bruton Smith originally offered $20 Million to each school in 2005 to play at Bristol. Too bad Bruton doesn't opt rebuild banking back to it's pre 2007 configuration.

Okay, that's entering dark humor territory.

I really hope that there's some kind of misunderstanding. Travis has been my favourite driver for a few years, and he always seemed such a nice guy. :(

If that is true, then he's a piece of shit. But there's always a possibility that his wife is making it up, you know how psycho some people can be.

Read some encouraging news today.

Quote:
NASCAR officials are apparently considering a number of possibly significant rules tweaks for 2014:
-- Elimination of the minimum height rule. That would be to end the rather meaningless post-race controversies and penalties for cars being 'too low' after a race. Some worry, though, that such a rule would force teams to discard thousands of dollars of expensive springs. However the current rules have led teams to spend huge sums on very trick springs.
-- Adding roof 'wickers,' similar to used in years past, designed to break up air flow over the roof and presumably make it easier for a trailing car to pass.(Mike Mulhern.net)(10-11-2013)

It could be the best thing they've done in years. Remember how fantastic the racing was with the late 2000-2001 plate package due to the wickers? It was almost like DRS on a mass scale. I've been clamoring for the wicker to be brought back for years now and run it everywhere to generate huge runs on the straights and help bring cars side by side going into the corner.
