Now is the time...
(Preview)
I want to start by praising (I can not believe I am typing that) NASCAR for ALL the changes being made to the NASCAR Busch East Series. The cost cutting messures and lowering of age requirements will make the division thrive in 2007 and beyond.
Now to get to the reall point (You did not actually t...

The first thing is all the controversy surounding Joe Brady and the #00 team.

Rick Fuller to #00 ??
(Preview)
Rumors are circulating that Rick Fuller will be the new driver of the Brady Bunch Racing #00. Although one post at another site states that it hinges on sponsorship. This seems odd to me, as the last I was aware Rick has the Polar Beverages sponsorship. Guess we will have to wait and see on this one.

Another observation .. Dear NASCAR

Dear NASCAR,
If you are going to focus on the Whelen Tour more after the restructuring in 2007, I guess that explains all the MAJOR mistakes at the NASCAR.com website in 2006.
If you take a look at thier drivers roster you'll see just a few mistakes.
