Some of my old friends are going nuts right now I reckon.

I worked for mb motorsports' parent company, Mittler Bros. I ran the website and was in marketing. The race shop is right down the street and during the season people ferry back and forth between "real job" and there. I did the graphics for the truck, ran their website, press releases, and all sorts of other odd jobs as needed.

That's awesome, they deserve the success for everything they've put into the series.

There is kind of a joke around here (in St. Louis, Mo) that if you are into racing you've either worked for, sponsored, or at the very least met Mike Mittler. Dude is always hustlin'

I worked there in 2010 right after the economy tanked so it was pretty ugly. Glad they are doing better now.

Did find and purchase a bitchin' Kenny Schrader shirt.

74 is running Chevy car headlight decals.

E2- Here comes a good-assed heat.

Update- 74 is a Dodge with Chevy decals.

How is this 54 able to run that high line like he's at a superspeedway and everyone else just keeps burying it in the wall trying to follow him on the same line?

I don't know a drat thing about dirt racing but that car just checks the gently caress out and it seems a little Jimmie Johnson.

Edit: I'd be on IRC but my irssi instance crashes more than Spencer.

Edit edit: Nevermind. They're beating the poo poo out of each other now.

Daytona International Speedway took down the classic sign which had stood on the property for years.

And by "took down", I mean "obliterated as if to symbolically and overzealously stomp on its history":
