2011 Week 1 Commentary

It looks like just north of sixty of us took the green flag for the 2011 Conway NASCAR League season. It should be an exciting season, what with the Love Bugs and the new point system.

It was a beautiful day at The World Center of Racing on Sunday as we cut em loose for the 53rd running of The Great American Race.

Dale Earnhardt, Jr. won the pole and was quite racy much of the afternoon, but he got punted like amny of the other front runners.Rookie Trevor Bayne, who ran strong all through Speedweeks, pulled of a miracle by winning the race. Thankfully, it was exciting even with the two car tandems.

Blue 7 Racing, joined by Speedway Princess and Fuller Fast Track won the week. Tank Racing and O Racing rounded out the top five.

We shall see what the degree of difficulty is in coming from behind with the new point system. It should be fun.

We will get all the changed team names and our rookies outlined before we get to Phoenix, which is where we will be next Sunday.

2010 CNL Champ Ricky Racer will be flying his 2010 Conway NASCAR League flag from the infield. Keep an eye out!

The Subway Fresh 500 drops the green flag at 3:14PM EST, so get those picks in early.
