    This stop should take them to the end. Will be a shoot out.
    I bet the crunched fenders ain't over.

    Agreed. The Rock was a great race. I go by the track all the time they still have events there and a lot of practice. it would be nice to see them drop one of them road courses and run Rockingham again.

    I think they dropped them because of the limited seating. these days, a full house would be a welcome sight.

    Those last 50 laps took some real driving up front. Lagano is a smart little racer and got'er done. Bristol is one crazy race ... ALWAYS ... I love that track!

    at one time, they had plans to play a Tenn U football game there pretty much for the sole purpose of breaking the record for football attendance. i don't think they ever did that did they?

    I don't know. My son-in-law teaches there perhaps he knows. I'll check with him in a few days.

    Well, not quite accurate but close bucky.... To keep it simple, SMS(text) and Voice (legacy, not VoLTE or Ipuss) runs in the same network, the difference is that SMS is a digital service over analog so, your text will need a second of GSM signal to transfer it contents to your provider and vice versa. In other words, you type your text, hit send, there is no signal so phones puts the message in standby, faint signal comes, phones do handshake, send a bunch of bits in half a second, you loose signal 2 seconds later but you never noticed all of that happening. Signals, Specially low signals as GSM can bounce off stuff as tree leaves and even airplanes. Once we go to VoLTE and the GSM/GPRS networks are turned off this wont happen much and when you are out, YOU ARE OUT of signal....

    Welcome Mr. Nuke. We'll try REAL hard not to hold it against you about knowing the Captain and all. It'll be tought, but we're disciplined enough to pull it off. Your profile is basically blank, but I'm assuming you're Mr. Meredith?

    Oh .... AND a Harvick fan?

    Did you READ Thumper?
    Mr. Meredith? Where did that come from???
    I posted above I was WATCHING him last night "over the wall" As in on pit lane, as in part of the crew....
    My SIL teaches at UT, he's a brain with legs and arms. The only wall he goes over is the one to the groceries.
    See what I was talking about Mr Nuke. I'm the brain trust of this outfit.

    Oh, got it. We're on the road and I'm trying to catch up here. Reading and typing on a dang phone while bouncing down the highway ain't my favorite thing to do. (Lynn's driving) What threw me is you said you would ask your SIL about the game and when Nuke posted, he quoted P-hole's question. I'll go back to being a passenger until I can get to a real computer! ��
