Rousch is king of the 1.5 mile tracks and Kenseth has won the Fontana race a few times in the past . Drue Blickinsdorfer could be batting 1000 after two races!!!!

Depends on which Burton they were talking about. If it was Ward, they were right :p :

If its Jeff, then they were messing with you and need to be blown up :grenade:

it was regarding my triple 3 game and i clearly stated jeff burton in that matchup. it was a girl who just pm'd me again and said he was driving under a different number. i doubt she was messing with me because she seemed as if she really thought this.

The triple 3 game is on another page and is not in this thread so I had no way of knowing thats what u were referring to :p :

As for the Jeff Burton part, there is no news on the internet nor on Nascar Raceday (which I am watching now) so one must assume that he is going to race today. He will be starting 41st (actually 35th when the cars on the inside line move up because of the 43, 83, and 88 going to the back) :s mokin:

I should mention that the 43 is going back because of a back up car, 83 because of an engine change, and 88 because of a transmission change :D

The ding-a-ling who created Digger needs a smack upside the head. Digger is at least as lame as boogity, boogity, boogity.

It's been suggested elsewhere that this could be alluding to California becoming a RP track. While that may not necessarily be a good thing, ANYTHING has to be better than last nights yawnathon.

Great racing at the end.

Great job by Kenseth and since the two have history credit for Gordon having his thinking cap on and not the chequers-or-wreckers cap.

Too bad it isn't summer. I could watch the grass grow. It would be more exciting than the race at Fontana.

I'll admidt Fontana can be a mind numbing race to watch . The track is very wide and long , and it also has minimal banking . This means a well set up car can simply run away from the field , and rather quickly start putting struggling cars a lap down . There are also few coutions , meaning few lucky dogs . Miss the set up here your race can be over . As a fan , I root for all things Ford , all things Rousch , and all things Wisconsin . Though I respect Gordon as a multi-time champion I consider him somewhat of a tool . With those things being said ,in my bias opinion ,that race was friggin' cool . A true statement race for Kenseth and the #17 team .
