Watching the opening ceremony for the Bristol race on T.V. View from overhead was Red, White, and Blue; kids singing the National Anthem; invocation asking for protection over our young Men and Women deployed in harm's way; and F-16's executing a fly-by. What a great Nation to be associated with.

8-car has some work to do to make the top 12. Been a lot of pressure for him this year; would like to see him make it.

I got to meet the people who organized the pre-race at Bristol while at the Daytona race.They are good people and they were very excited about the kids singing at Bristol.It was special.

Okay who also saw the blurb under the ESPN bottom line about Mark Martin and a new guy who didn't qualify running the 01 this weekend that they will be sharing the ride for DEI in the 8 car for the 2008 season?????
Man I have been a die hard Martin fan for years but this just seems more and more like Wrestling.
What do you think?

I think maybe next year I'll open up a "Remove #8 decals from your truck" service.

Junior won't be driving the Number 8 next year. It's going to be hard to get used to him with a different number and sponsor.
