dang for kyle, kudos for bobby

well...like the title said, kyle had just gotten back on the lead lap and the next thing i heard on the scanner was "the engine just went flat like last week"...then something about a "cylinder" then saw/smelled the smoker driving by in front of us...DANG IT!!!! bobby, on the other hand, had a really good day...stayed in around the top 10-15 all day...got a bit of a scare when carl edwards when slidding in front of him and tony-you could practically hear his heart beating through the scanner...and we'll take a 10th place finish...it was really great to see all the yellow or white bobby/cheerios shirts and hats everywhere...of course, jr's was the dominate driver of choice...but didn't hear much about him on the radio (the prn broadcast on 105.3)...would've liked to hook up with nancy and charles but didn't hear from them...got a bunch of samples and watched some of "raceday"...left the stands with 2-1/2 laps to go, jumped in the tahoe and was out of the speedway in about 5 minutes! that's the fastest we've ever gotten out! thanx again to dad and sue for taking care of our babies...and next week, we'll have withdrawals cuz of easter...

sunday, sunday, SUNDAY!!

it's finally race weekend (the first of three at texas motor speedway-tms)!! just watched an exciting iroc race in which tony stewart won and did his spiderman impression...he really didn't want to but he said "when you've got 100,000 fans screaming for you to, you just gotta..." steve kinser did another rollover but was okay...and they were three wide a lot of the time...almost like a plate race but on a smaller scale...and, of course-had to buy some new bobby labonte stuff since he drives for the king...got the "pitroad pets" book that goes to the ryan newman animal foundation and mikey got a 2 time champion tony stewart shirt...a fun time was had by all-exept for the high winds and dropping temperatures...and found out that kyle(petty) and bobby both qualified in the top 20....sweet! really looking forward to the race now! will give "race report" on monday...
