I laughed at that, then laughed harder after watching a race once (Toyota's first, actually) and found out how true it really was

Last year my wife and I went to The Winston and toured a number of the "shops" (multi-million dollar facilities), in talking to some of the people, we learned that there are 12 body templates that are IDENTICAL for chevy and ford. The bodies really aren't that different. Gone are the days of racing real RWD cars such as the Monte Carlo, T-Bird, and Grand Prix that even used factory windshields and 1/4 glass. Now there isn't one thing stock about them. As far as the whole Gordon sucking and Junior being overrated issue, Gordon obviously is a very talented driver, but I was at the race Saturday, and that was Junior's race. I didn't see gordon make one single pass without help, but I watched Junior pull it off quite a few times Sure helped Gordon to have Johnson behind him in the final laps and Bush wouldn't help at all. If Bush would have helped, it would have been junior 1st, Bush 2nd, then Gordon and Johnson. It was even brought up in interviews afterward that Bush was helping Gordon. Do I dare mention Gordon's teamate running Junior into the grass and water coming out of the pits? Junior overcame every set back and still finished 3rd, there is no question in my mind who was the fastest car/driver on the track, sometimes shit just doesn't go your way.

I like Tony Stewart because he still displays an old school driver's attitude, not all this PC shit, aren't to many drivers swinging on others anymore I like Junior as well, I don't feel he is/was overrated, I just think everyone expected him to fill his dad's shoes, and that's alot to ask of anyone, he's proving himself to be a great driver on his own with or without the name. I'd say hate is a strong word to use with Gordon, so I'll just say I don't care for him

You guys should do the DriveTech.com school at USA Speedway in Lakeland. You really get a feel for how much stock cars grip. Talk about fun! Cost about $300 but it's better than the Richard Petty Experience and better than the Buck Baker School in Atlanta.

Tell your significant other(s) it would be a great birthday gift.
Shit, she'll tell me it would make a great gift for her I would like to go, we did the Petty deal at Daytona, which is a blast, but this sounds even better. I guess it will cost me $600 to go though
