Well, it’s time to go green, green, green…
The lineup is set and is notable for who is and isn’t in the group.
Look at Row 1 of the Great American Race – David Gilliland and Ricky Rudd. A rookie and a return. Gotta love it, especially for Gilliland. Hey, Denny Hamlin did it last year, could be a trend.
Our buddy Boris Said made it in, too, in 23rd position. The SoBe No Fear team with four full-time employees wants to make seven races this season, and it seems Boris is on track. Road races are a given for the man considered the Road Course Ringer. Next, Boris for the All-Star Challenge. Get ready to write in! (Who said? Boris Said!)
And you have to give credit where credit is due. James Hylton certainly gave it his all. Even though he didn’t make the race, he qualified better than Ward Burton, Brian Vickers, Mike Skinner and A.J. Almendinger. Others in the didn’t-get-in category are Bill Elliott, Jeremy Mayfield, Paul Menard and Kenny Wallace.
Tune in Sunday for more. And if you want some good company and great chili during the race, join us at the Outlaw Chili Cookoff at Chilli Willi’s in Huntington.
Lots of good eats and NASCAR (and other) treats to win during the day. Doors open at noon.
Come on down, and remember, all the money raised from the $1 chili samples, the raffles, auction for a Junior-autographed card, and photos with Junior or Mark Martin standups goes to benefit the victims of the Emmons apartments fire.
See you Sunday!
