w00t GO RUDY!!!!!

Dog....Thanks for posting the starting lineup

sad that now that the 64 and 87 HAVE sponsors they miss the race

Congrats to Reutimann on the pole. That's great for him!

Hope the Fords run better this week than they have at the short tracks!

Thanks DeeDee and Dog for keeping everything updated

A little blurry, but here's a video of Kyle's win in today's NW race...
