Play Rattles From the Catch Can II: Win The Blount Report

March 11, 2009

NASCAR picked a lousy week to take off. At least for me. I’m pretty sure the teams aren’t having any problem with it. But talking and writing and complaining about the Kingdom of France helps me keep my mind off of more serious issues. It can get a bit depressing out here in the world lately.

So I decided it was time for another quiz. A second, Rattles from the Catch Can quiz to be more descriptive. You can play it right here.

If you do play, leave your email address when you’re finished and we’ll put your name in the hat - or I guess the Catch Can would be more appropriate - and the winner will get a copy of Terry Blount’s new book, “The Blount Report”.  Terry was a guest ON PIT ROW a couple weeks ago. The book is his take on the most underrated and overrated drivers, tracks, races and rules in NASCAR. I’ve read it. It will get your blood pumping, for sure.

2008 OPeR Award: Best Junior High School Drama

January 4, 2009

Last year, it was Carl Edwards and Matt Kenseth who mixed it up - in a very lame way - in the pits and earned the dreaded “High School Musical” OPeR. Or was it Kevin Harvick and Robby Gordon? Or Kurt Busch and Tony Stewart?

Whatever. This time, there was no mix-up. Happy Harvick and Cousin Carl got into it after practice for a Nationwide Series race and there were plenty of photogs around to catch the action.

If only the ruckus had happened at one of Humpy Wheeler’s races, we might actually have some of those pics.
