Talledega Baby...

Ok so I love Nascar, I admit it. The cars, the colors, the personalitys it's all great. Although I am not a huge fan of restrictor plate racing (this is what is going on this weekend) it's still Nascar and it's still 500 miles of fun. Or at least sometimes it is. The Hendrick stable should do well, as always, but you never know when 43 cars are tightly packed going 195mph. Yes restrictor plate racing at it's best, you don't have to worry about handling at Talladega just put the accelerator on the floor and go fast! I want to one day visit this monster of a track, did I mention its 2.66 miles in length?, as the parties are as legendary as the racing itself. I have heard many a good one from there.
Well anyway, I am going to root for the guy I always root for, Jeff Gordon. Some say I am a bandwagoneer since I root for the best driver (yes he is) but I have rooted/cheered for Jeff back when he drove the Baby Ruth car in the Busch series. How many of you knew that? I also have rooted for Jeff Gordon every time he has come to Texas Motor Speedway and never won. Well until a couple weeks ago
.. So hell yea, he is my driver and my driver only. I always pick him with friends, or anyone who wants to place a bet. Yes I am a rabbid fan you could say, but hey that's Nascar!
