2 RC Ringers in the Sprint Cup field. Who will finish ahead... Jacques or Victor?

[Dilla]

Ron Fellows.

[Risil]

Dear God this weekend is insane.

[Juablo]

Ron Fellows.

Average finish in last 5 Cup starts is 28th.....

[Myrvold]

Ron Fellows.

I didn't see him on the list when I checked...

[V3TT3L]

Can't wait to see what Kyle Larson can do in a ring.
KL has Piquet's crew from last year, including Trent Owens.

UPDATE 1 - arrest warrants issued: Stolen vehicles siezed from Harmon's garage
Arrest warrants have been issued for a NASCAR driver, and his business associate, after investigators say they stole at least seven vehicles from a competitor. According to the Rowan County Sheriff's Office, warrants were issued for driver Mike Harmon and business associate David Novak. Each man is wanted on breaking and entering and larceny after breaking and entering. WBTV was there as deputies recovered two cars and five trucks from Harmon's two garages in late May. Deputies say Harmon stole the cars from racer Jennifer Jo Cobb at the end of last year. The vehicles were seized from Harmon's shop in Mooresville, and from a storage facility in Catawba County, officials told WBTV. Harmon was arrested in mid-May in a separate incident, also involving Cobb. Authorities say Harmon broke into Cobb's Mooresville headquarters, and stole her hauler to transport cars and trucks. Harmon and Novak had not been arrested as of Monday afternoon. At last check, Cobb's hauler was still missing.(WBTV)(6-17-2013)

UPDATE 2: Mike Harmon turned himself in to Cleveland County authorities Monday around 5 p.m. He then posted a $10,000 bond, for both charges combined. Novak had not been arrested as of Monday afternoon.(WBTV)(6-17-2013)

Should be fun to see JV in the cup cars again. Lets hope its a clean race though.

That's quite a mythology.

Kurt Busch raced for Phoenix Racing - lead Sonoma - and managed to reborn his career from the ashes.

Let's see if JV can do it too.

[gm914]

Wait, no Boris?



I will NOT be painting happy trees this weekend.

[Dilla]

I used to like Boris until he became a 1 man wrecking crew.


Edit: Dilla jammed me!

I'm not really a fan. I just like seeing him punch stuff and generally lose his ****.
Maybe we can get him in the booth...

[Dilla]

TSM entered James Buescher to prep for Mosport. Gee whiz, I wish Gibbs had thought of that. . .

[BoschKurve]

In honor of Jacques Villeneuve's appearance in Sonoma, let us all revel in his musical ability.

[Wuzak]

What are the odds of Tasmanians winning at both Sonoma and Road America?

If Owen Kelly has a decnt car I think he is in with a chance of victory.
Marcos isn't having a stellar season, but usually turns it on for road courses. Though he hasn't been as successful at Sonoma as he has at Watkins Glen.

JV?
In the 51?
NOW that's worth watching.

This will not be tolerated on a motorsport message board (or even a music message board).

[Myrvold]

I'll chip in with the usual weird statement...

I own his album, and I actually like most of the songs

Maybe JV can sing the National Anthem, instead of American Idol star James Durbin

Has JV raced cup before?

[Dilla]

Has JV raced cup before?;)

At Talladega and a Brickyard race, I believe.

Edit: Apparently, he started a Phoenix race and DNQ for the 2008 Daytona 500 as well.

His Dega race was sublime..
Great qualy, dropped to the back out of 'Respeck' then staved off all the Big Ones to get a top 12 finish.
Bumper and I watched it in the VIP room at the Three Kings in West Kensington!!!
Those were the days boy...

These are always fun.. But will the cup race be on at the same time as Indycar corn race? That's...

[pingu666]

wonder if jv made sure they still had kurts setup :-)

[V3TT3L]

Brand new Gen6 for all.

[pingu666]

not sure how much the changes would matter on a road course, it should be a good base anyways

record one watch the other live silly

[OfficeLinebacker]

Having trouble deciding between a NASCAR race on a Road Course with ringers, vs another Indy oval race.

Boys? Do we need to evaluate greenman's membership here?

[BoschKurve]

I have to work during both the races.

I'm torn as to what I set the DVR for. Seeing JV racing on a road course is always fun. But IRL is fun too.

Decisions, decisions....

[pingu666]

cant u dvr both?

[Red17]

;) Brand new Gen6 for all.

Not sure, but I heard something about these cars still carrying a lot of stuff from the Gen5.
And on a road course I think the issue will be more on the balance side so they may carry over something from last year...

[gm914]

I'm going to assume that this will be Andrew Ranger.

Confirmed.
I will be cheering him on, despite the fact he's a Canadian named Andrew. Hope he finishes well.
