Reuty's night

Just days after the birth of his frist child, Jimmie Johnson took the green flag in second. Jeff Gordon was about to make his 600th start. Landon Cassill was going to make his 2nd cup start. Kasey Kahne was hoping to finish in the top-five for the 4th time in the last five starts And David Reutimann had no idea what was in store for him. Jamie McMurray led the field to the green, but was quickly overtaken by none other than Jimmie Johnson. Surprise!! Jimmie would lead until grean flag pit stops where he makes a roookie mistake. His misses pit road. He loses the lead to pole sitter and evenual 5th place finisher, Jamie McMurray. That didn't stop Jimmie. he ran down 2nd and then ran down Jamie to take the lead back. Caution. Restart. Jimmie Spins. Caution again. Jimmie never really recovered from that. Went 2 laps down. Got a lap back. Hit the wall, went another 2 laps down. He's not the only driver high up in points that had problems that night. Points leader Kevin Harvick also had problems. Now, to about the last 70 laps. Your leader, Jeff Gordon. Your 2nd place car, David Reutimann*. Reuty wears him down for about 18 laps. with 52 laps to go, Reuty takes the lead. He never looks back. Carl Edwards finished 2nd, Jeff Gordon finished 3rd, Clint Bowyer finished 4th and Jamie MacMurray finished 5th. On a more serious note, Kasey Kahne, the 6th place finisher, came over his radio stating the he was dizzy and nauseous. It night have be Carbon Monoxide poisoning. But, after several tweets, his publicist said he was just fine. Congratulations to David Reutimann on his second career win!
*(Note: david Reutimann was in teh top-five all night. Plus he got that stupid asterik erased from by his 1st win!)

Jimmie and Chandra Johnson welcome baby, but don't have a Name :(

on my mom and Landon Cassil's birthday, Jimmie Johnson's wife Chandra gave birth to a 6 pound 14 ounce baby girl. They haven't figured out a name yet, so they call her "Baby J". Jimmie, who starts second tomorrow, has been show people pictures including soon-to-be team mate Kasey Kahne. Now, the big question is, what are they going to name her? Everyone has been pitching names. I heard Bristol and Victoria Lane. So, I have some suggestions for Jimmie and Channy. Besides Bristol and Victoria Lane, I have got Charlotte, Hannah, Jalynne, Daisy, Angeline, Lola, and Raina. There will probably be more and more name suggestions for them. I have got to wonder. Did they have any names floating around before "Baby J". All I have to say is, what ever they pick, it will be a perfect name for little "Baby J". Plus, I think I am not the only one just wondering waht they are going to name her.

I'm getting really mad at Kevin Harvick right now

First off, welcome to my blog. i didn't get to say this when I first started because well, I forgot. Now on to the goodies, or with a title like this one, I guess you have to say baddies, if that's even a word. First order of business. Kevin Harvick won last night's Coke Zero 400 at Daytona. Second order of business. Jimmie Johnson crashed out with about 13 laps to go along with half the field. Third order of business. Despite being in pretty much all the wrecks last night, Kurt Busch managed to finish 7th. Out of the three business orders I mentioned, I am only happy about one. Can you guess? Yes, you guessed it. The one about Jimmie Johnson. What the hell is Kurt Busch's problem? I mean, he crashed out like 10 guys and he gets a top-ten out of it? and Kevin Harvick, you have a nice lead, i know it will go away once the chase starts, but the guy the finished behind you, the perfect haired, perfect everything Kasey Kahne, needed the win a lot more than you did. I mean coming in to last night's race, he was 20th in points and 174 points back. Well, I guess you already guessed the second place guy, huh? Yeah, my man, Kasey Kahne, finished second. That would make three top-five finishes in four races. It would have been four top-fives in four races, if his engine didn't go in last week's race at Loudon. all i have to say is thank god I beat my grandpa in our weekly bet. He has Jeff Gordon, the race's third place finisher and I have Kasey, the sexy runner-up guy. That's three out of four, should have been four out of four, but all well. Dale Jr. had a solid night last night, finishing fourth after winning the night before in the Nationwide race in the Wrangler 3 car his dad made famous. Rounding out the top-five was Kevin Harvick's team mate Jeff Burton. With 13 laps to go, Kurt Busch (surprise, surprise) gets in it with Jeff Burton, bundling up the rest of the field. Well, you can only imagine what happens next. Oh yeah, the BIG one! The 09, 2, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 20, 31, 38, 39, 42, 47, 48, 77, 78, 82, 83, 98 were all involved and two of your top-five finishers were in there. Now, what is going to happen next week? Can Kasey Kahne finally pull off a win? Can he get into the Chase? I guess we all have to find out next Saturday at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, IL Which is 264 miles from my current city! Food for thought. See ya!

How I became a Kasey Kahne fan in a half of a race

Everyone can probably recall how they became fans of their favorite driver. Maybe they can describe it better than I can do for myself. Maybe theirs is probably more glamorous than mine, but I can assure you mine is worth hearing. I had always been a NASCAR fan. In the late 1990's, like my dad, I was a Dale Earnhardt Sr. fan, but then again, how can a eight-year-old pick a different driver when all that was in the house was Dale Sr. fans. In 2001, when Dale Sr. die, I knew that I did not want to like the same driver as my dad. So I decided i needed to find a new driver. That was when i saw Dale Jarrett race for the first time in my eyes. I knew then that I had found my new favorite driver. Now, this lasted for about two years until i decided not to watch NASCAR anymore. i wouldn't watch another race until May of 2006, three years after my last. I can tell you right now that i didn't watch the whole thing though. I was upstairs in my room. For some reason, I don't remember what, I came down the stairs to find my dad, a Dale Jr. fan, watching the 2006 Coca-Cola 600 on FOX. Intrigued, I sat down in the nearest spot and started watching. On a commercial break, they showed a Kasey Kahne commercial. I thought, "Man, he's cute!" As the night went on, Kasey Kahne raced the best race I had every seen in years! right then and there I knew I had found my new favorite driver. I had said this out loud and my sister Rachael had said the words I will never forget. "You only like him because you like he's cute!" Well, she wasn't entirely wrong though. What she had wrong was the fact that wasn't the only reason I like him. I knew he was a great driver and he could win races. Till this day, I remain a Kasey Kahne fan, watching him go to victory lane countless times, watching him barely miss a win, watching his engines blow, watching him make the chase for the first time in his career, sticking with him as he had a bad season in 2007, going win less that same year, watching him go back to victory lane at the same place I watched him go to victory just two years before, just barely missing the chase. As you can see, I have been behind Kasey Kahne for four years and I am pretty sure that I will still be his fan until the day I die. I am a die-hard Kasey Kahne and proud of it! A true NASCAR fan sticks with their driver through good times and bad, not jumping ship when things don't go your way. If someone would call me an obsessed fan girl of Kasey Kahne, I wouldn't deny it. I would proudly say, "Yes, I am! Do you have a problem with that?" and proudly display my alliance with Kasey on my shirt and root for him every weekend no matter what! I can proudly say that Kasey Kahne made me like NASCAR again.

Why does everytime Kasey Kahne is going for a win, he gets screwed?

Okay, I have a good question. Why does every time Kasey Kahne is going for a win, he gets screwed. For the past 4 weeks he was in contention for the win and either someone passes him with like four laps to go, his team mate take him out (damn you, AJ! Yeah I am still mad at you!), or his engine blows after leading the most laps. Why does everything have to happen to my man? Really? What do I have to do, what do the fangirls of Kasey have to do in order for Kasey to get his first win of the season? What do I have to do in order for Kasey to make the Chase? Why does Jimmie Johnson and Denny Hamlin have to be winning all the races and guys like Kasey Kahne, Joey Logano, David Ragan, Clint Bowyer, and countless others are still waiting for their first win of the season and some their first win of their career. 52 times we have watched Jimmie Johnson go to victory lane. I am sick of seeing him win. You know what I what to see? Kasey Kahne go to victory lane. Let's look at something. 2004, Kasey Kahne gets 5 runner-up finishes. A couple of those he had for a victory when it just slipped away. Why? Did God say, "no, not yet."? Well, why not? Why couldn't have he went to victory lane in his rookie year. Did you think he was not good enough for victory lane yet? My man keeps getting screwed and i can't handle it anymore! So many times in his career , he had victories and God had said, "no, not yet. It's not your turn yet." But, how come he had it is his turn only 11 times, when he has said it was Jimmie's turn 52 times? Is God playing favorites. Why does Kasey keep getting screwed? Why does he keep getting run it to and run over? Why does he keep getting the expiring engines? Why does Kasey have to be the loser in a three-wide situation? Why does other drivers think that, "Oh, he doesn't matter. he won't be mad at me if i do this."? Let me tell you something? He does matter. He does care if you do something to him. You know something else? I care what you do to him. All the fangirls care what you do to him. So, you know what? Stop screweing him over. The only reason you would do something like that is because you know would beat you bad later in the race. I think i might have gone off topic a bit. People might just say it is just bad luck. I say it is getting scrwed over by everyone who just doesn't care. By everyone who thinks the guys who dominate this sport are more worthy, I guess is the word, at a win or a championship than Kasey. I just can't take it. Everytime he is cheated, I die a little inside. I died a little today when i saw his engine blew. Kasey shouldn't be cheated out of anything he is in contention for. A win, a top-five, a top-ten. i just can't stress enough how much Kasey Kahne gets cheated and screwed over in this sport! Every week from now until Kasey Kahne gets a win, i will get angrier and angrier, until my head explodes! Now, I guess I have to pray every day that Kasey gets a win next week or I will not have a head anymore! I love Kasey Kahne, and he can't keep getting screwed over and he can't keep getting cheated.

looks like Jimmie Johnson is out of the slump

Surprise, surprise! Jimmie Johnson wins! La Dee freaking da! It looks like Jimmie is out of the slump all of us were praying that he would not get out of. Jimmie Johnson dominated the race, taking over the lead on the first lap from pole-sitter, 4th place finisher, and defending race winner Kasey Kahne. Today's race was boring in my eyes, the girl that hardly very thinks a race is boring. First caution was on lap 19 for a two car spin, the 33 of Clint Bowyer and the 1 of Jamie McMurray. Both had help around, AJ Allmendinger spun Jamie and Kyle Busch spun Clint. Busch received heavy damage and never was a factor afterward. JGR had extremely bad luck today, both Denny and Kyle receiving damage is several different wrecks and Joey Logano's engine expired on the last lap. Jeff Gordon was the bully of the race, spinning almost everyone around him that he could get to: Martin Truex Jr.; David Ragan; Elliott Sadler, who took Clint Bowyer with him who had recovered from his lap 19 spin. On lap 67, the big one happened. Kurt Busch, Juan Montoya, Martin Truex Jr., Mattias Ekstrom, Denny Hamlin, Sam Hornish Jr. and among others get bunched up by Boris Said on a restart and crash. NASCAR red flagged for about 21 minutes. Marcos Ambrose was leader at the last restart when he made the big mistake of stalling his car. He took over his spot, but NASCAR puts him in seven spot, right behind Kasey Kahne, giving Jimmie Johnson the victory, his first road course win, first win in 10 weeks, and his fourth win of season and moved up to 2nd in points. Robby Gordon finished 2nd, points leader Kevin harvick finished 3rd, Kasey Kahne finished 4th and Jeff Gordon finished 5th. At the Final restart, Kurt Busch was in the top-ten, but had a flat left rear and faded to 32nd.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.: NASCAR's hobo

What the fuck is up with Dale Earnhardt Jr. and that damn beard? It makes him look like a hobo. Hey, Junior! Maybe the reason why you can't win a race is because of that god aweful beard of yours. Or maybe it's because you're not very good. Have you ever thought that maybe for a second you are as good as everyone else. I mean really? Is your life-long dream is to become in sport's hobo? Come on, your dad was Dale Earnhardt Sr. for god sakes! Just because you work for the so-called best team in the sport doesn't mean that you can do what ever the hell you like! You know, what ever problem you have, it's not your crew chief's fault, it's yours. You are not doing what you are suppose to be doing. You know what? That beard is probably messing with your head. You just can't grow a beard in NASCAR like that! WTF were you thinking? Really? I mean, come on! I got to say, anyone with a full-grown beard looks like a hobo. I don't care who you are, it just not good! I mean, why do people think that a full-grown beard looks good? I think it just looks weird. Hey, Junior! You can't drive well anymore and the only way you can get better is to first know that you are not good anymore right now. Then. you gotta relize that you are at fault for the bad finishes. Your crew is at fault for a small part, but you are at fualt the most. Next, get rid of that damn beard, you look like a hobo. If you don't start getting better finishes more often, you will be the odd man out at Hendrick and Kasey is going to take your spot. Hey, I don't mind ir Kasey take your spot because i like him a hell of a lot more than I like you. it's the truth and you gotta face it sooner or later or it is going to hit you hard in the face like a soccer ball to the nuts. I just don't understand why you keep running shitty. Do you like being passed by the guys that should be worse than you? Do you like be lapped three or four times in a race because you can't get the handling of your car right? Come on, you are 34 years old! Hell, Joey Logano is going better than you and he is only 20 years old. Can you count? 15 years separate the two of you in age and last year and this year he is running better than you.
