    Unhappy NASCAR and Jayski

    For years I have followed Jayski.com for up to date NASCAR news. Well, I read where he and his crew will no longer be providing updates after 22 years. I'm sorry.......NASCAR without Jayski is like the spyder world without Lamonster. It just ain't right.

    Have you found an alternate source for the information yet?

    The single constant in all of our lives is change...

    Doesn't that seem a little bit ironic?

    I personally think that a nine Month long racing Season is about three Months too short!

    Unless they come up with some more things to provide some variety, I think it is about right.

    We certainly do NOT need any more mile and a half ovals where everybody spreads out and just runs around and around......and there is little or no real "racing".
    And where the most excitement in the whole race might be a loose lug nut after a pit stop.

    I attend a lot of races in person......with my Spyder......but am reducing my schedule by about 30% this year.
    Down to 9 or 10 weekends.

    Why don't they add some Figure-eight tracks, and perhaps a Demolition Derby; to crown the champion in Homestead?

    Well that's carrying it a bit far.

    The "roval" experiment in Charlotte was a success......so I wonder if they are considering doing that at Daytona too for the summer race.

    The "championship" races at Homestead last year were really boring and uneventful, mostly.
    I may not go back this year.

    But I DO enjoy riding the Spyder around the area for a few days before the races.
    It's a tough call.

    I'm with you.

    How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?

    I think you are confused about something here.
    That picture you posted is NOT a motorcycle.

    I never said that it was... it was just the best example of what I was trying to show: even open cockpit AND motorcycle racers aren't afraid of getting wet!

    Actually NASCAR will run the road courses in the rain.

    AND.....I'm pretty sure that motorcycle races on an oval will NOT keep running in the rain.
    They certainly won't if it is a dirt track.

    That would be "Mud Wrestling", and there are far more entertaining venues for that!
