Who do you think made Jimmie Johnson feel more uncomfortable this season - the New York NASCAR fan in this picture or Carl Edwards? Where’s Chad Knaus when you really need him?

If you want more pics from Jimmie’s Week - which NASCAR still insists on calling  Champions Week - go on over to Full Throttle. Marc is running a series of the daily shots of Jimmie and Chandra, Jimmie and Chad, Jimmie and a cab - you get the idea. It’s Jimmie’s week.

Jimmie’s…er, Champions Week winds up with the big Sprint Cup Awards Banquet, which is televised every year, to the delite of your intrepid ON PIT ROW Pit Crew. We love the Awards Show. Just like we loved the classic 60’s Sci-Fi flick, Plan Nine from Outer Space. We love it so much that we started a tradition a couple years ago of getting together and making fun of what is usually the worst two hours of television programming you’ll ever see.

That tradition continues this Friday at 9 PM ET. Yep, we’re gonna live blog the 2008 Sprint Cup Awards Show. We hope you’ll tune in the show and join us on the web. We’re gonna hoot it up. BethAnne has some special content saved up just for the live blog presentaion and we should be joined by some of the best NASCAR writers found anywhere.

OnPitRow.com’s other big news this week is the first appearance of the Pit Road Toad cartoon series, drawn and written by the very talented Art Almond. Art’s toons will be a regular feature on Bench Racing with Steve and Charlie and we couldn’t be much more excited.

    There’s a NASCAR fan in New York?

    How much did they pay her to run up and hug Jimmie? Probably less than the photographer they had to pay to follow him around.

    Gee, thanks [Rotten] Big Apple. :P

    Count my vote for moving this thing to Vegas, or at least Charlotte (to the Hall of Fame, when completed).

    When will NASCAR learn that it isn’t for everybody, and they might as well go where they’re wanted?

    I couldn’t agree more Luke. Others will talk about having to expand here and expand there. Horse Hockey! Work at being stronger where your core fans reside and stop trying to force feed the unwilling.

Got something to say?
