While I, too, tired of the caution after caution racing, I have to agree with silas in that the woke "entertainment" was the worst part of the entire night. NASCAR is doing its best to chase away more of its long-time fans than what they'll gain in new fans.

What was the 'woke' entertainment? I FF'ed through all that.. Though I saw.. What was it? Wiz Khalifa or something? Not my speed, so I skipped it.

I agree. I watched the "heat races" then showered and snuggled up in bed with my wife, and we watched a movie.....

Martha Jarrett (Ned's wife, Dale's mother) passed away yesterday


And.. Kyle Busch was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison last month..



Apparently.. Mexico has less truth in sentencing than the US.

I love my DVR. I skip everything I don’t want to see.

I guess 3.5 years is $1,100 in Mexico.

He's lucky.. Guns into Mexico are a big thing. Guns on a plane are a big thing and apparently he did both.

Doesn't really matter. Private aircraft passengers (and flight crew) still have to go through screening. At least.. "Chartered" flights. A Cessna taking off from a local downtown airport doesn't.. So, I don't fully know the rules, but he should have had to go through screening going down.

So.. TSA ought to be on the hook here as well, seeing as, at least in theory he left from the US. Unless it was in his 'checked' luggage.. Which would have been OK for TSA.. But I'm pretty sure is still a no-no for Mexico.

Speaking of Mr Busch, there is a new documentary out about him. It's on the FreeVee streaming channel. I can't get it here in Canada, but thought I would pass it along.....

Sterling on Dale JRs podcast. This should be good ... always a fan of Sterling and his era of NASCAR.
