I see the track has negative camber on the entrance to turn 3.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Hasn't been the most exciting race by a mile. Doesnt seem to be anything to do with the car, they seem to be able to pass pretty well, just seems like everybody is riding around. Little action/hard racing.

Well, I had the chance to listen to the first half on MRN/PRN, whichever it is, on the way home from a rainout.

They sure can polish a turd of a race.

The only reason the race blows so much is because the TV networks have been massively overdoing it with the 2003 finish 24x7. Kinda bit of karma going on.

It only sucks (in your opinion) cos it's the week after Talladega.

It's had plenty overtaking, numerous Danica references, and tons of advert breaks, so it's just back to the regular scheduled NASCAR programming this week after the fun of last week.

Anyway, there's debris on the apron in turn 1, they're just not using it for a caution... yet.

You're using that logic thing again Ian. I've warned you about that before.
