2011 NASCAR Season

It will be 10 years since Dale Earnhardt was killed. I was watching that race when he wrecked. I haven't watched a NASCAR race since then. I may start watching again.

I have an interesting link to the #3 -- My first trip to Daytona 1998 was Dale's only Daytona win; my first (and only trip) to Talladega 2000 was Dale's last win, and my last trip to Daytona 2001, was the race in which Dale died.

I'm still a die hard Mark Martin fan -- and regardless of all the "tweaks" by the governing body, I really love this series -- of course being originally from Arkansas, I'm sure there is some genetic rung in my DNA (I assume there are rungs in your DNA) that makes me a circle track fan.

Sorry for the diatribe -- but let the 2011 NASCAR season commence!
