FTJoe Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 So, who do you think will win? I actually don't watch anymore. Been to a bunch of races, picked it up as a kid 35 years ago when the greats were running. Before that I was ALL about drag racing, rails and funny cars and you know who they are, the mongoose, the snake, Shirley...SO MUCH FUN. Man I loved that, if the word National (summer, winter...) came up, I was glued to the TV. Anyway, I live in the northeast and I'll never make an excuse to my friends who ask "you watch that?". Yes I do and you should to. Gotten stupid in the last couple years, I just can't get into it anymore. Though one of my most profound memories is watching the Intimidator (and either you know who is is or you don't) in his final race I believe protecting a teammate's win. I see it, no problem, relatively speaking it wasn't much of a crash. It wasn't until the next day I learned the harness came loose and we lost the Big E. So long story short stubear - I can't play this game and I am now sad.
stubear62 Posted November 16, 2009 Author Posted November 16, 2009 Joe, I know everyone you mentioned. After the BIG E was gone, I had gotten into another driver who had an accident too and came back, was too scared to drive anymore. He was a very good driver, his name escapes me, but I remember his crash (seen it on tv) and I saw Dale crash too (during his race) such a shame. All the Drag racers too. Shirley was my fav. She kicked butt alot. No problem, looks like no one wants to play. To little to late I guess. JJ looks like he will win #4 in a row!
