Did anyone else watch the Brickyard? I really wished I would have gone now because it was the best one I've ever seen. There were alot of lead changes and some great strategy by some drivers. Dale Jr. went from 20th something to 6th by staying on the track during a yellow. Stewart went from near last to top ten two times during the race also.

Hey, yeah I watched the race. It was pretty awesome. I wish I could have went myself.

However my girlfriends dad got to go. He's a photographer for the speedway, and has been doing it for as long as I can remember. He's got alot of cool things from doing it too. And ironically my girlfriends favorite driver Jimmy Johnson won. But I have to admit, he did a good job after cutting down a tire and coming all the way from the back of the pack to win. I personally, wish Dale Jr. did a little better. Obviously seeing as he's my favorite driver. Oh!, whats he drive???? Haha, thats right a monte carlo

LOL. And so does jimmy johnson. . .so tack another win on there for team chevy.

MonteriderLS out.

I went (I have gone for the past 10 years). Jimmie Johnson had a great day to come back from 38th position and 1 lap down. I wish Jeff Gordon had a better day, but but he broke a front sway bar on lap 9.

Only problem is that it is hot @ Indy in August...

Hey Eric, U R Lucky...I watched it on NBC,
sure not the same as being there. J.J. just might
get his first championship. Dale Jr., was kewel to
not give Jimmy a hard time on his pass, but made
a good decision to not pit.Peace/`Space
