He drives an Orange Home Depot Car, and he's on a roll.. Smoke has won 3 of his last 4 races, and top 5s in his last 5.. and he climbed the fence again

1. #20 Tony Stewart
2. #97 Kurt Busch
3. #18 Bobby Labonte
4. # 5 Kyle Busch
5. #16 Craig Biffle
6. # 9 Kasey Kahne

yeah I know I normally do just the top 5, but I had to add Kahne :P



Kenseth spun McMurray out early, which put McMurray out of the top 10 in points momentarly, and Dale Jarrett in

Next week, its back to Pocano.. didn't they just get back from there?

This weeks schedule..

Truck; memphis: Saturday 8PM, on Speed
Busch: Pikes Peak Saturday 3:30 PM, TNT
Cup: Pocano: Sunday 1 PM, TNT
F1: Germany: Sunday12PM, CBS (Tape delay possibly)

all ET times

in case you have not heard.. Michael Waltrip is leaving DEI at the end of the season.. going to be interesting where he goes, and who will end up in the #15 ride next year

so the Penske #2, the Roush #6, the DEI 15, and an added car to the Evernham stable are up for grabs next year.

German Grand Prix last week. Kimi Raikkonen led for about 30 laps, but had hydraulic failure which forced him to drop out. Pablo Montoya takes another win and puts him 36 points clear of Räikkönen with 6 races to go, Schumacher is in third. This week they are in Hungary., starts bright and early no matter where you are in the USA..7:30 AM ET on Sunday.

Busch race tonight is in St. Louis at 8 ET, on TNT, Cup and Truck are off

sorry, I been slackin :P

Anyway, the Busch race last week was the Wallace Family Tribute 250 in St. Louis, as a result of that, all 3 Wallace Brothers were in it.

Reed Sorenson won it. For the Wallace Brothers: Mike 2nd, Kenny 24th,Rusty 37th

Last week was also the Hungarian Grand Prix, and it had a complete flip flop from the German GP: This time, Montoya had the lead and had Hydrolic failure, which gave Räikkönen the lead and eventually the win.
This weekend is Indianapolis, but 2 different tracks. Truck and Busch are at Indianapolis Raceway Park, the Cup is at Indianapolis Motor Speedway

Dennis Setzer won the Truck race Last night, Busch is tonight at 8:30 on TNT, Cup is tomorrow at 2PM on NBC

Got very interesting between Kasey Kahne and Tony Stewart for the last 20 laps at the Brickyard, but it was Smoke that prevailed at the end. He joins the Ranks of Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt. Sr, Dale Jarrett, A.J.Foyt, Rick Mears, and Michael Schumacher of people who have won at Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

top 5..

1. #20 Tony Stewart
2. # 9 Kasey Kahne
3. #25 Brian Vickers
4. #19 Jeremy Mayfield
5. # 17 Matt Kenseth

Martin Truex Jr. Took the Busch race at IRP.
Next week is Road Course Racing, at Watkin's Glen, NY

Some NASCAR guys have already been racing this week at the Glen, in the Rolex Grand Am Series Race... Tony Stewart can blame his teammate Andy Wallace for wrecking their car (no relation to Rusty and them.. I don't think), they finished 21st in the Daytona Prototype class

Bobbby and Terry Labonte finished 14th in the DP class.. and overall

Scott Pruett, scheduled to attempt to qualify for the Nextel Cup Race, along with parenter Luis Diaz took 4th in the DP class, and overall

Jorge Goeters, who is scheduled to attempt to qualify for the Nextel Cup race this week, hooked up with Eduardo Geoters to take 18th in the DP class, 18th overall

Truck: Nashville. 5PM ET Saturday, Speed
Busch: Watkins Glen: 2PM ET Saturday, NBC
Cup Qualifying: 11:10 AM ET Saturday, Speed
Nextel Cup Race: 1PM 1PM ET Sunday NBC

Hopefully the qualifying doesn't get raiend out.. its possible as some practice sessions did .This would make it difficult for the road ringers to get into the race.

It looks like Kurt Busch is heading to the #2 Penske car next year.. thats a shock after winning a Championship with Roush!

Bud Pole Qualifying got to 9 guys left to attempt.. then the rains came and wiped the whole thing out,. Since they all have to finish their run to make it official, its all set by points, which s that Shuts out Scott Pruett from having a go at the race :( I wonder if he will try to get someone else's ride...

Kahne's 6th he had qualified for is taken away too, hes down to starting in 21sr

The 3 main road ringers, Said, Pruett, and Fellows are all in the Busch Race though, Stewart is starting on the pole for both Busch and Cup

after a 2 hour rain delay, and 17 laps of yellow flag racing... Ryan Newman won the Busch Series race..Mexican road racer Jorge Goeters took 9th.

Sterling Marlin's father is ailing with cancer, so he is going to skip the cup race to be at his side. (pray for him) It looks as the replacement for the #40 Car could be Scott Pruett
