Hey, Justin!

Yeah, I'm pretty excited to see it.  But I've gotta take my son to band practice then.  I'll watch a little bit before we leave.

Ben Spies is awesome!!!  It just goes to show that all the wins and championships are justified.  I would have liked to see Mccoy do better at his home track, it seems as though the triple did worse than last year.  I wonder how long it takes for the tires they use to trickle down to us small folk.

I should have known not to read this since Speed won't broadcast until tomorrow night. 

Put "Spoiler" in the subject line title if you're going to post results.

Double horn.  He's 12. 

I was in different bands.  For me, it's not as much fun as racing.  Ask Don about my footpeg...LOL!  (shhh...I think he sabotaged it...)

I think they were only bunched up like that because they were all saving their tires.  Notice the last 5 laps they spread out quite a bit.  Everybody was having rear problems.  Was cool to watch, especially when 1st through 10th is basically contending for the lead.

Yeah, the Ten Kate guys mentioned that they were only going %70 for like 2/3's of the race.  Still damn entertaining!   I wish Hayes was still in it.
