This was a great weekend of racing action; on TV (real life and the PS3). First up, congratulations are in order to Corvette for taking first in GT1 today at Le Mans. I wanted a decent amount of SPEED’s coverage, but Le Mans is not the type of race where you just sit down and [...]
I thought it was interesting that ESPN.com and RACER.com had different spins on the Dale Earnhardt Jr. / Tony Eury Jr. split. First, yesterday ESPN.com had a link that stated Eury was fired, but it now states that Eury is “out” which are two slightly different takes on the situation. I don’t think I dreamed [...]
I guess I spoke too soon about UGA having any chance to win one for two from LSU. The Tigers quickly dispatched the Baseball Dawgs 16-0 (yes, not a mistake), and 3-2. I was trying to think of a way to make this sound respectable. Getting destroyed by the #3 team in the country, and [...]
There are several events that I look forward to each year, and two of them happen to occur today: The Monaco Grand Prix, and the Indianapolis 500. If you throw in the Coca Cola 600, you have one hell of a day of racing. Something like 9 hours of back-to-back racing fun. Throw some good [...]
With his victory today in Texas, Jeff Gordon finally ended a winless streak that dated all the way back to October 2007. Good grief, 47 races, and the kicker was that he had never won at Texas Motor Speedway in 16 previous tries, until today. Gordon heads into the Easter weekend off week with 162 [...]
Not that it matters because the points will be reset. This format screws consistency. Thanks Kenseth. Jimmy Johnson made a hell of a move on Denny Hamlin to take over first and never look back. Gordon lead early, and fooled me into believing that he would put his winless streak to an end, but not [...]
As I mentioned yesterday, I am getting much too old to try to do the late night (early morning) F1 races, so I did not get to see Button take first earlier today. I also missed both Ferraris failing to finish the race. I guess I will also settle for recaps for the next couple [...]
I have always been a casual fan of the IRL – I do not follow the series very closely, but I do appreciate the exciting racing action, and of course the Indy 500. I have always thoughts that the IRL suffered for two reasons. First, the marketing arm of the IRL does not strongly promote [...]
