Hey NASCAR is cool, though I like F1 a bit better. But that doesn't mean I will miss watching a NASCAR game!

NASCAR is an okie sport. Speaking of which, I heard Toyota was joing NASCAR. Lots of POed hicks.

GioDeR · Post by **GioDeR** » 06 Feb 2006, 21:15

Earnhardt Jr. in Black Budweiser Car This Weekend
Written by: News Wire
Talladega, Ala. â€“ 4/25/2006

Dale Earnhardt Jr. will be racing in colors commemorating Dale Sr.'s career this weekend. (Harold Hinson Photography / Budweiser Racing photo)

The No. 8 Budweiser Chevrolet piloted by Dale Earnhardt Jr. will have a new look for this weekendâ€™s activities at Talladega Superspeedway. The usually red No. 8 will be predominantly black with white lettering and silver and red stripes in honor of the life and brilliant career of the late Dale Earnhardt.

The paint scheme mimics the design the elder Earnhardt made famous in his career while driving for Richard Childress Racing in the Cup Series and Dale Earnhardt Inc. (DEI) in the Busch Series. Ten of Earnhardtâ€™s 76 career wins came at Talladega â€“ more than any other driver. His son, Dale Jr., is second in all-time Nextel Cup victories at Talladega with five, including a record four-in-a-row for DEI between October 2001 to April 2003.

The elder Earnhardt will be inducted into the International Motorsports Hall of Fame at Talladega Thursday evening, and Saturday, April 29th would have been his 55th birthday. Among the most memorable of Earnhardtâ€™s 10 victories at Talladega was the last of his 76 career victories, where he came from 18th place with five laps remaining to take the win in October 2000.

Anheuser-Busch and the Busch family had a personal and business relationship with Dale Earnhardt for many years, promoting the Busch brand. Earnhardt won the first-ever race run under the â€œBusch Seriesâ€ name in 1982 at Daytona.

you know what is so interesting about those cars....

The only thing I like about NASCAR is what GioDeR mentioned

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 26 Apr 2006, 00:59

Well said, Stig.

Post by **Pabl0z** » 26 Apr 2006, 01:33

Nascar is probably the most boring motorsport there is.
No wait... It definitely is.

VNAF Ace · Post by **VNAF Ace** » 26 Apr 2006, 03:59

Hey, I have no problem if some of you don't like NASCAR, but why do you post in a NASCAR topic if you don't like NASCAR?

Post by **TheStig** » 26 Apr 2006, 07:21

hmmmm in hopes to enlighten you and to take a second look at this wonderfull sport to see what is really so great about it.

VNAF Ace · Post by **VNAF Ace** » 26 Apr 2006, 08:56

Hey, I also happen to be a big Champ Car/IndyCar fan (and somewhat of a casual F1 fan).

xHaZxMaTx · Post by **xHaZxMaTx** » 27 Apr 2006, 00:00

Yes, well, that's actually more than just turning left.

VNAF Ace · Post by **VNAF Ace** » 27 Apr 2006, 07:50

Ahem... The NASCAR Nextel Cup Series actually has 2 road races on the schedule.

And the Champ Car World Series has always had its unique mix of oval/road/street racing.
