Well that was pretty uneventful. Kinda cool to see the guys smoking the tires at 180+ mph. I bet I could do that in my Neon........
speaking of, i've got a project log at cardomain for my Neon. Check it out, http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3244844 let me know what you think. I'm hoping to take it to some autocross competitions this summer as well as maybe hitting the dragstrip! Toronto Motorsport Park has a track day as well, that might be fun. I have all this time and money invested in this car, I might as well take advantage of it!
'til next week...

Pickem's
Hi gang,
Dave asked where the pickem's were so instead of just trying to post a link, I thought I'd show where they were in the results spreadsheet. :)
I just did a bunch of print screens to show the different steps, click on any of the pictures to get a larger view.
First, click on the link to the results page.
This should bring you to the results spreadsheet. If anyone has used excel before then this will be familiar. You can use the scroll bars, pointed out by the arrows, to view the results further down the page and to scroll over to see the low and high scores.
In order to see all of the other pages in the spreadsheet, notice that there is a row of tabs along the bottom of the page.
If you were to click on any of the tabs, you would be taken to that page. Right now we're on the 'Standings Summary' page. To find out who picked which driver, click on the 'Driver Picks' page.
Scroll up or down to see all of the results.
The tabs only go so far, though. To move over further, use the arrows in the corner of the page to move left or right. We'll find Dave's page and select it. When you click the single arrow, it moves over one page at a time; click the double arrow and you move all the way to the end.
Remember to use the scroll bars to see all the results within a page.
Hope I answered your question Dave...and oh yeah, I added a link to the Driver Picks. Make it easier to get to, thanks for the question!

2009 Daytona 500
It's the start of the Nascar racing season!
Shame I missed the party, sounds like fun was had by all. If anybody took any pictures let me know and I'll post them here for everyone to see. :)
All of the paperwork is done and entered, we do have to get Cameron to get a hold of Daryl to change one of his picks. Minor details...
I did watch the race and thought it was pretty good. Sucks the way it ended. I hate rain-shortened races. What'cha gonna do though? Can't put grooved tires on and expect them to race, lol. That'd be funny!
I guess the economy hit us as well, we lost 10 people from last year. Too bad, but I hope everyone has fun following their picks this year.
Sure hope to see some more comments this year, it seems like I'm talking to myself most of the time!!!
Well that's about it, until next week...
