I am not sure if any of you would appreciate this, but I have been a NASCAR fan for 20 years and I go to the Spring Richmond race every year. This year, a freind of mine got my some pit passes. I got a lot of autographs but the best one is that Greg Biffle signed the sun visor of my Mustang. Here is a pic. It was a pretty cool experience!
The Bif!
Thats pretty cool. I went to Richmond lastyear.

We go to the Coke 600 every year.
Sweet! We do too. Charlotte is awesome! We are renting a house a half hour from the track on a lake this year. I went to Martinsville in the spring and Ill also be going to the fall Richmond race. Im a Harvick FanOriginally Posted by Flyin Monkey
We try to go to at least one different race every year but we always go to Charlotte. I think next year we're gonna hit either Bristol or Talladega

Cool, only problem now is you will need to buy another visor for the car when you get rid of it one day for that new 5.0.
My family and I've been fans forever and pretty much watch it whenever we can! I've made it to a Daytona, Richmond, and Charlotte race before.

Yeah, I know. but that will be a good problem to have
I'm with you PJ. Martin was one of my favorites (my all time favorite is Bill Elliott) but when he went to the other teams, I had to root for another driver. I did get Jimmy Fenning's autograph though!
Cool aint been there for a few years!
Back in 99 I got the chance to have a private tour of the Petty complex. Richard, Kyle, and Adam were all in Kyle's office right after buying a new plane. Richard was jagging Adam about his Harley shirt, "they payin you to wear that?" Everything was very laid back, but Adam never stopped smiling. Just four months later, he'd be gone.
Been to Kentucky, Phoenix, Las Vegas, Charlotte, Michigan.

used to be a bigger fan, but still watch some. thru the 80's,90's and early 2000's was always a huge Bill Elliott fan. would also follow the roush and yates cars back in the day. I agree with the other with Mark Martin. Once he left Roush he lost my interest. These days i follow the Roush cars still. Would also like to see Trevor Bayne get a full time ride in Nationwide to see what he can do and get the opportunity to move up the ladder.

yeah, that bums me out about Adam Petty. The Petty's seem like a nice family and I cannot imagine dealing with a loss like that.Back in 99 I got the chance to have a private tour of the Petty complex.

NASCAR sucks out loud anymore. All the cars look the same, I watched a race where basically 2 cars ran ass to nose drafting each other the whole time, how much boring can it get?
They need to get some more actual good ole' boys trading paint like they used to, and less of these pretty boys!

If it looks good, you'll see it. If it sounds good, you'll hear it. If it's marketed right, you'll buy it. But if it's real, you'll feel it. IG: @donuttrump
I feel the same way, it's a good sleeping pill anymore. I'd love to see them try an elimination type racing. Start with 42-43, every 40 or 50 laps knock off the last 10. Maybe then we'd get to see some balls out racing. Doubt it will ever happen.
