Default Coke Zero 400 AWESOME

Went to my first NASCAR race and it was awesome. except for when the big GAY back flipping *** carl edwards spun jeff gordon out. how annoying. im a huge gordon fan and being my first race it was pretty exciting seeing him run up front all night.

anyways it was awesome and i cant wait until next year. but i will have to get a scanner to listen to whats going on thats for sure.

Earnhardt looked like he was going to have a chance all night then he just randomly took a **** at the end at the worst possible time

i caught the last 20 laps(best part of any race)and thought gordon was gonna finally get one this year,but of course it didnt happen.i think it was more his fault than edwards,he should not have tried to go outside so early

I almost didn't watch it. It seems like the past few years it has rained. I went last year and drank more rain then anything else.

After the last restart, Dale Jr. was up front and doing really good. He was on the inside, everyone knows he runs better on the high side. When the green dropped, he had a good push, then he got
shuffled back. I was really surprised to see that that happened.
Yes I am a huge Earnhardt Fan. Even tho he didn't win last night, I was also rooting for Mark Martin. Mark Martin needs a win.

I was there too. scanners are a must when going to a race. you def get to hear the true race over the radio. I have a set from radio Shack that has an intercom system so me and my wife can talk to each other without missing anything.

I went 2yrs ago to the pepsi 400 and Gordon crashed on the last lap and his car died in front of us at the end of pit row and there were a bunch of drunk ford fans behind me telling him too f-off and he waved too them until he heard what they were saying then he flipped them off.I did all i could to keep my mouth shut there were too many of them!Mark Martin will win next year when hes one of the Hendrix boys!
