Burning the Midnight Cacti

So we finally made it to the end of the season. The last race was a bit anti-climactic as the 48 was never really in danger of losing the championship, and the race for the 35th owners points position was not really all that close either. Congrats to the 7 car team for keeping their driver in the top 35 and the guaranteed spot in the Daytona 500. With a new year always brings renewed optimism, so 2009 could be happy hunting for the 7. Time will tell.



Before I delve any deeper, just… Read More

Robby Gordon and the 2008 Tecate Baja 1000

I have been following Robby's progress since the race started yesterday. The GPS tracking shows him somewhere near La Salinas at 0 mph...I hope it's wrong. I am communicating with a certain "someone" ( also MIA right now) down there and waiting to hear what he finds out. Norman Motorsports’s Roger Norman and Larry Roeseler piloted their Trophy Truck to victory early this morning in Baja California Mexico. Robby's Team USA Teammate, B.J Baldwin has… Read More

All Quiet on the Testing Front

My appologies for being so late again with the post. Being back in the working world is tough I guess. My appolgies for to the THP users for this being so Robby-centric, but Robby's is the only cup team I've ever worked on, so my oppinions have been shaped from my experiences there.



Want to get some buisness out of the way before I touch on some of the craziness that has gone down in nascar world this week. First of all, THP store has been so successful that we are are going to make… Read More

Spring in the Dessert

Most of the time I just write about food, but I figured I'd take a stab at writing something technical. But first, since I consider myself a tiny bit of a writer, I'd like to give a shout out to Michael Crighton who died this week. He obviously wrote Jurassic Park among other books, and produced E.R. (which I have never watched). I think Jurassic Park was the first book that I read twice. I was about 12 or 13 when that came out, so it was right up my alley. Then Jeff Gordon drove the Jurassic… Read More

The End is Near

All appolgies for the late post this week...I just spent 5 hours in line with the whole early voting deal, after a long night of Halloween partying, so I am a bit spent. Not as spent as the people who travel with the cup teams, though. It's a long season and the end is finally in sight. Usually there is a sense of relaxation that comes at the end of the season that is similar to the last day of school. However, I fear that the state of the economy and the knock on effect on some of the less… Read More
