Hi Joan, was just checking Robby's page and saw your last message...Don't remember if I read it b4 and acknowledged it or not.....getting old is a pain in thr tush,lol Still wish Robby the best and would love to see him RACE. I never thougut he would turn into a start and park...it makes me sad for him. I am sure finances are the reason but he has so much talent and heart....it's such a waste.Just watched a video of him in the TT. Wow....what fun he was having....would have scared the pudding out of me,lol. Hope you are doing well and the cataract problem is resolved. take care,Chris

Hey Joan! How are things with you? Not much happening here. Didn't even watch the race yesterday until the last 30 laps. See I didn't miss anything- again!!! Racing is so borrrrriiinnnggg lately.
Nascar needs to do something to make the races a little more entertaining. Lowering prices might help too. Can't believe how empty the stands are this season.
Hope things are good with you! Have a great week!

Greetings Joan. I am here!! I stop by here now and then, but since most of my friends have went in other directions, it is not as often as I used to visit. I think so many people have given up or just don't care anymore. I know I find Nascar sooooo boring. Tune in for the last 10 laps and you haven't missed a thing.
It was good to see Paul win. You know how I love RCR, so any win for them is a good one in my book. Wish Kevin was having some better luck.
Still NOT finding Speed drink in my area, but my Toyota FTS picks it up for me during his travels and brings it by the shop. It is really good. Yellow is my favorite. I think if Robby has the right marketing, he will do well with it.
Kentucky was a good weekend for me. I am the type of person who needs to be at the track as soon as it opens, so I was not caught up in the traffic jams except for the ride home on Sat. night. I got lots of autographs, photos and even shared some laughs with Harvick. It was also good to spend time with some friends here.
Well enough from me. Hope your health problems are better. Take care and have a great week!!

Sitting here in Jaci's house in Columbus now. We are meeting up with Missy and heading to the track tomorrow morning. Yes, I drove. WV borders KY, but from where I live I have to drive in and out of 4 states before I even get to KY. How funny (or sad) is that!?! Took just over 6 hours to get to Columbus from home, but now the fun can begin. Have fun in MD!

Hey Joan!! I come and go, usually on raceday for chat. Heading with a group to KY to see the race. Hoping this one will be better than the season has been as the races are only entertaining the last 10 laps. Hearing Robby won't be there, then he will be there to qualify, then he won't... I am so confused! Thank goodness for having friends there. I know either way, I will have a great time.
Hope you get to head over to Salisbury, MD. Busy area this time of the year with everyone heading to the beach. Take care and enjoy the rest of the summer!!

Robby is doing a limited nascar schedule due to funds. By putting some of these people you mentioned in the car, he can go elsewhere and concentrate on other racing events or Speed promotions. IF Robby is just going to do a Start and Park thing, does it really matter what caliber of a driver he puts in the car? Think Robby would get 'better' people if he were going to have the car in for the entire race. Better yet, Robby would drive the thing himself. All comes down to funding.
Have you tried Speed yet? I am not much on the energy drinks, but I did try Speed. Great tasting stuff. This Sunday's race was not one of Robby's best. Hoping for better things next week.
Hope your eyes clear up soon. Take care. Have a great week!

Greetings Joan! Just stopped by to say hello. Didn't watch the first part of the race on Sunday. I saw a really good movie called Super Eight. Then when I got out of it, we had some thunderstorms here so no getting on the computer for me. Not that I missed much by the review of the race day.
Understand Robby will get some seat time this weekend. Would love for him to finally get a win. He's got to catch up to my other favorite Harvick!
Hope your eye gets better soon. I know it has been worrying you. Not much else going on here. Got to go and get some housework done. No one else here so the mess must be mine! lol!!
Have a great week!

As a Harvick fan, you know I loved the outcome of the race. Until the end, it was quite boring though.
Hoping your eyes are getting better. Speaking of eyes, I can't wait to see how this one plays out!

Hey Joan! Don't know if I will have time to watch the race this weekend. Not sure if I even want to anymore. They have been dull, dull, dull until the last few laps anyway. No rivalries, no excitement, no make/model superiority, etc.
Thanks for the holiday wishes. Hope you are feeling better. Hope you also have a great holiday. Remember the reason for the holiday!!
Hugs!!

Robby stated during the TORR interview last week that because of the top 35 rules and the $$ from Nascar, he probably would have the car at all the events this year, HOWEVER he will only race about 15 of the remaining races. Much better than what he original said he would race.
Hope your health is better and all is well. Been too busy to get on here lately. Got a big banquet to plan next weekend, and it is taking up all my time besides work. On a cool note, my Toyota FTS is bringing me a new supply of the Speed drink. He picks it up for $4ish a 4 pack for me. ;) Tastes good!!!
Take care and have a great week!

Sending hellos to you. Hoping all is well. Not a big weekend for Robby, but interesting for me as a Harvick fan. Not saying either driver was right or wrong with their behavior, but isn't it sad when the best part is the fight at the end? Last several races have been boring, boring, boring until the last 10 or so laps.
Maybe the rivalries of the past several weeks will give us something to watch- naaahhhhh Nascar will find a way to neuter them too.
Have a great week Joan!! Hugs!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY belated but still with the best of wishes. Just finished watching the Richmond race. BORRRRINNNNGGG!! Robby had a terrible car.
Hope all goes well with your surgery too. Keep in touch and have a good week!!

Hey Joan! Hope you had a wonderful Easter holiday! Not much going on here. Just really busy at work. Had to work some late nights last week as a coworker was out on vacation. No worries as it equals OT.
Take care and have a great week.

Glad all went well with the surgery. Robby ended up where he did as he ran out of gas early on in the race. On the bright side, he stayed out of trouble and brought the car home clean. He is still in good shape with the points esp. since he is only running a part time schedule.
I am very Happy that Happy Harvick won! You know he is also my favorite driver besides Robby. The race was soooo boring until the last 4-5 laps. Those final laps made the race.
Have a great week!

Greetings Joan. Hoping the surgery went well. Please keep me posted.
As for Kyle, I just watched him win again in the Nationwide series. Maybe they should go back to calling it the 'busch' series again!! lol !! I don't dislike him. I like anyone who gets booted from Hendrick cause he "isn't going to do anything" and then wins, wins, wins. Kinda like giving ol' Ricky a big on finger huh!?! As for Samantha, I know someone who has known her since before she started dating Kyle. She is a really sweet girl. Got to see her in NH last year and she was really happy we followed thru by saying hi to her. Going to try to meet up with her in Kentucky this year too. Maybe get to spend a bit more time with her.
Anyway, you are in my thoughts. Fingers crossed all is well.

Just checking in. Thinking last week you were talking about snow and this week it is heavy rains and flooding! LOL Not much going on here. Hope you are doing well.

Thanks for keeping in touch Joan. That wreck Sun sure played havoc with a lot of drivers. I thought I replied to your last post...maybe didn't hit " enter",lol. I too wish Robby would race a complete season,but as we have heard him say many times,"it is what it is"lol. I have started following Brad Keselowski as he is from the town next to where I grew up, Utica,Mi. Rochester, Mi about 4 miles west of Utica. Brad has attitude similar to Robby's, don't you think? godspeed to all the drivers, because anything can happen at anytime, ala Sundays fiasco. Take care, Chris

Greetings Joan! New week so new stories I see. No Speed in my area to even try. I don't like to buy stuff online unless I know I will like it. Not wanting to pay for shipping/handling.
Hope the weather is finally settling down your way. Not been to bad here so no complaints.
