Week 5 Commentary

It was a rough week at Bristol for many a member of the Conway NASCAR League but just another day at the office for Jimmie Johnson, who piloted the #48 Lowes Chevrolet to yet another victory.

Leading the way for CNL for the week were a trio of races; MT Pockets, Snookbabe and CosmoD. Rounding out the top 5 were S&T Racing and Team Wolf.

In the garage area with crumpled up sheet metal were Danielle Hall, Fitz Racing, On a roll Racing, Team Cuda and Punch.

Moneyshot Racing is still the leader, with Slow Motion Racing, S&T racing, Wiseguys Racing and Pamela's Pistons hanging tough in the top five.

We had some big position gainers this week who included Offshore Gamester, Budah, AFC Patriots, MT Pockets and Team Wolf. Free falling were Fitz Racing, Danielle Hall, WTF Racing, Team Cuda, On a roll Racing and of course, Punch. Punch joins Miss Make Shit Happen (formerly 3 babe and IDDEW88) and CosmoD in 35+ points tumbles thus far this season.

We continue our with another short track this weekend as we visit Martinsville, VA for the Goody’s Fast Pain Relief 500. The race is scheduled to get put under green at 1:16PM Sunday.

This will be last race with the first box set. Good Luck!

Week 4 Commentary

The Kobalt Tools 500 proved to be a very intriguing race on Sunday, with the race results a mixed bag of veterans and young drivers at each end of the finishing order. Kurt Busch, whose season looked like it was getting away from him, really dominated the day just he did a year ago.

Just when you thought the standings in the Conway NASCAR League might settle down without the big swings you see early in the season, forget it.

Past champions Lil^^ and Big^ Boy tied for the win this week, closely followed by Burke, MT Pockets and Money Shot Racing, (formerly Luckydog^). In the garage area was Team BC, Raising Cane and Miss Make Shit Happen.

Several racers picked up a bunch of positions this week, and they include Big Boy and Lil Boy of course, along with Blind Squirrel Racing, LuckyPenny, Onaroll Racing, The Blue Deuce and MT Pockets.

Falling down the charts were Team Hot Stuff, Crank McTanken, The Gas Man, WTC Racing, Lisa Las Vegas, Racing Fever, Smoke's Fury, Team BC, Team Collin and in total free fall were Offshore Gamester and Miss Make Shit Happen, who made commentary on the message board on RACESCORE.

Moneyshot Racing has taken over the point, with Slow Motion, Pamela's Pistons, GBR88 and The Big LeBowski rounding out the top five.

We take this week off and then get back going in Bristol, Tennessee for the Food City 500. Tempers do not work very well at Bristol, so it should be eventful. Bristol is a favorite top on the tour anyhow. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin is the Grand Marshall and Dallas Cowboy tight end Jason Whitten will drop the rag, at @1:16PM.

Back to Atlanta, that was some goings on between Carl Edwards and Brad Kesolowski there at the end of Atlanta race. If you missed the action, here is a recap for your review.



NASCAR has placed Carl Edwards on probation for 3 races, which as I see it is light. I would have parked him one race. Not for attempting to spin Kesolowski, who has it coming from several drivers, but not thinking about what could have happened at those high speeds to others, both racers and spectators. What do you think?

Week 3 Commentary

While Jeff Gordon dominated and led the most laps at Las Vegas, it was once again Jimmie Johnson who took the lead lead and crossed the finish line first. I do like Jimmie but this is getting a bit much.

Several drivers were dialed in in The Conway NASCAR League as we has a three way tie for first between Wiseguys Racing, Mama's Boy and Blind Squirrel Racing. Crank McTanken was next but followed by a photo finish tie between MT Pockets, Pamela's Pistons, Team Hot Stuff, Money Shot Racing (formerly Luckydog) and S&T Racing.

Ricky Racer, Batson Roofing, The Blue Deuce, CosmoD and Speedway Princess were all in the garage area.

Mama's Boy, Blind Squirrel and Crank McTanken were out biggest movers of the week. Those who fell several spots were Blue 7, Fitz Racing, Ricky Racer, The Blue Deuce, Captain Schwab, Team Monkey and Burke.

Slow Motion Racing continues to show the way, followed closely by Team Hot Stuff, Pamela's Pistons, DFL Racing and Team LeBowski.

This week we are down in Hampton, GA for the Kobalt Tolls 500. Maybe there is in fact global warming, since unlike last year, final happy hour practice on Saturday morning was not postponed due to snow. Mark Martin was fastest, while pole sitter Dale Earnhardt, JR was second.

Atlanta is very fast and is usually one of the better races, with a handful of recent photo finishes. They will put them under green at approximately 1:16PM, so get your selections in early.

Good Luck
