Hey Nuffers...
Just another GREAT Week of racing in the NRL...All racers are to be
commended for doing a wonderful job adjusting to the new race-day
rules without a beef....lol...
Let's Get Right To It !!!!
We
started the week in Milwaukee... running the Craftsman Series'
Camping World 200 at the.....yup.....you guessed it....The Milwaukee
Mile..lol...
IJeremy was up to the challenge of continuing
his winning streak in the Craftsman's Series....taking his 4th
straight race and his 7th of the series...only 11 races in !!! WHOA
!!!! So Jeremy continues to dominate the standings...with a 300
point lead over TheGift. The next closest Nuffer is yours
truly...Mwils...ohhhhh.....only 500 points down with BigMike bearing
in on
Mwils. So Jeremy...you can take a coupla races off if you
wish.....lol. You too Gift !!
OK Back to the
Milwaukee Challenge...this one wasn't just a "slam dunk" for
Jeremy...In fact...Jeremy had to perform some pretty crafty...get
it...craftsman...crafty... ok ok... pit adjustments...taking only 2
tires through most of his stops and still running steady. He had the
likes of TheGift...who set the lap record at 26.050...
BostonSox...who led 162 Laps to take home the extra bonus
points...and hot racing Mwils...whose been finishing in the top 2-5
quite often lately!! Of course there were plenty other Nuffers more
than capable of snapping Jeremy's streak...so this was not a cake
walk. CONGRATS Jeremy on a well earned victory. TheGift finished
second and Mwils rounded off the top 3. Here are your...

We move to anudda new
track...the O'Reilly Raceway Park...where we will be running the
Power Stroke 200 !! When you get a chance...stop on by the
Craftsman's section of the NRL website where Jeremy gives us a
courtesy lap around ORP. Can Jeremy continue his streak???
Aight... Next up
was
the IROC-A-THON
at DEGA!!!!!!!
Woohoooooooooo !!!!
I knew this was gonna be fun !
Default ::::rookie ::: setups on a Supers peedway...lol...
Well again
Nuffers.... KUDOS on your skillzzzz.... You guys were patient and
really did a great job managing your
cars...... AND we had some very
exciting finishes last Thursday
Night on both tracks!!
With the standings already bunched up after the first 3 races...
wins by both Buster (Track A) and Jeremy (Track B) could have put
some distance between them and the rest of the field.
Ahhhhh...but the other Nuffas were not having it !!!!
Ova on Track A... The Speedmeister Dale was at it again !!
This
time outlasting Mwils...:::who?::: yup...Mwils again...lol.. in a
shootout on the final lap. Dale only led 2 laps the whole race !!!!
Of course they were the most important laps of the 66 lap duel. With
Mwils very low on fuel...he couldn't do much during the last lap
except to stay in Dale's draft to conserve gas...then try a last
minute slingshot out of turn four. But like I said before...Nuffers
were not having it !! As Mwils took to the outside out of turn
four...the little light Mwils saw for a possible pass was quickly
snuffed out by DaleReynolds...lol. Before that masterful
block...Mwils was trying to "sucka" Dale
into
thinking that...with no fuel...Mwils would just settle for 2nd
place..."Ya Dale...I'm just gonna draft behind ya and letcha take me
home" But Dale wouldn't respond.... out loud that is...lol. It's
obvious Dale was responding quietly...:::yeah right Mwils...I ain't
stupid::::lol. Sure Nuff...Dale's instincts were right on and he
took a hard earned and impressive victory !! Great Job Dale !!

And we can't forget our 3rd place finisher....SEVEN continues to
show marked improvement as well...In this one...SEVEN led 4 laps to
earn 5 bonus points... and was constantly challenging up front. YA
SEVEN !!!! You Doin it Dawg You Doin it !!!!! Buster took 4th
place while Reaper rounded off the top 5. Just a Great Race.
So could Track B top Track A's performance...... BY A LONG SHOT
!!!! Track B had one of the most exciting finishes in the history of
the NRL. A 3 CAR PHOTO FINISH !!!!! WOWOWOWOWOW !!!
Yup... Track B had to wait for the EA results to see who won !! I
probably have the positions wrong...but I know I have the racers
right.... I believe TheGift was on the outside...Abbotttazz was in
the middle and Jeremy was on the inside as the three speedsters came
out of turn 4 THREE WIDE to the finish line !! Can you imagine the
excitement?!?!
When it was said and done...the EA Photo showed TheGift taking the
victory....with Jeremy finishing second and Abbott finishing 3rd !!
But get this... you know how the results show how many seconds
behind the leader a car was at the end.... well...TheGift got the
win...but the results showed both Jeremy and Abbott...0.00 seconds
behind the leader !!!
EENIE MEENIE MINEE MO had to be what EA did to decide this one!!

UNBELIEVABLE !!! Next week we stay with the COTs as we
travel to Las Vegas for race numba 5 !! Be There or MOST DEFINITELY
be square !!
Sooooooo.. ..after
a great night of racing on Thursday...it was "take it easy" night
during Friday's Busch Race at Milwaukee. Six
Nuffers
showed their perseverance... hanging out for a cool night of racing
the Milwaukee 250. I'll tell you what... though it was a lite
turnout...it was an extremely productive race !! "Like a clinic"
said Mwils. "Man we learned so much about racing strategy in this
one" Yup....we got a chance to study the skillz of Nuff top dawgs
Jeremy and Abbott.... who taught us how NOT to overdrive...how to
stay low...how to set up for a pass...and much much more !!! The
race was very clean and took only 1 1/2 hours to complete.
Of course we all know who won right??? lol .... well again...this
wasn't just a "Gimmee" race for Jeremy... he fought all night but
cruised to victory with a strong car at the end. So lesseeeee....
that gives Jeremy 9 WINS in the series !! Ya Jeremy's DA MAN right
now....gotta give it up to him!! He's on a scary run and playing for
keeps !!!
Abbotttazz set the track record for Busch Cars at Milwaukee with
a sterling 26.698 run...and finished second while BigMike took 3rd
!!
Hey that's anudda Nuffer that deserves MAJOR KUDOS !! BigMike had
been strugglin just to stay connected to a race over the past 3
weeks....yet he kept trying...kept showing up...kept settling for
low position points....and even had to invest some duckies to get
his connection repaired. And now...BigMike is back and will be a
force to reckon with....again !!!

Next up we travel to O'Reilly Raceway Park!! Ya Jeremy has
first place sewn up....but take a look at the rest of the
pack.....Second through fifth....all prize positions...are bunched
together and it will interesting to see who will finish where as we
move into the last stages of the Busch Series!!
Last but not least... the DREADED Infineon Road Race in
the Nextel Series. Ya I said the dreaded...lol. I was
anticipating a loooonnnng night of racing...full of cautions and
frustration since we had the flags on. But lo and behold...17
Nuffers showed their GUTZ by hanging out....and guess what...BOTH
TRACKS were done in less then 2 hours !!!!!! YA YA YA !! I don't
know about track A....but we had a good race on track B. Ya there
were cautions...but the Nuffers on Track B really raced well and
tried their best to stay clean. I'm extremely proud of those guys
and I know that means the world to them in hearing that...lol.
Ahhhh....but their were several racers that actually looked
forward to this one. And one of them was your Toyota 350 WINNA !!!
DaleReynolds took home his second victory of the week in a great
job!!! With the track split...Dale had to deal with some extra
serious competition on track A...including last year's winna...Abbotttazz...who
was on his "A" game as well. The NRL Forum was very active in
preparation of the race....with over 100 views and 14 replies in the
"Track Smack" Section. Guess who started the smack talk......
"I cannot wait until we hit the road course up there. Whether
it be NASCAR 09 or 08, road courses are deff. my calling so don't be
so shocked when you see dat 24 up in the lead :]"

Uh huh.... MR DALEREYNOLDS showed the NRL he is not just a "Speedracer"...but
he is most definitely a "real racer" !!
Dale backed up that opening statement with a resounding win !!
WONDERFUL Job Dale !!!
TheGift took second while Buster rounded off the top 3 on track A
!!! As a result...both Gift...who added 5 important bonus points...
and Buster now share first place atop the standings !!!! Amazing !!!
Did I say 17 Nuffers showed for this one?....YA
Did I remark on how impressive the Track B racers were???...HAIL YA
Did we honor the Track B Winna???? We will RIGHT NOW !!!
Kmack SMACKED Track B :::I'm a poet and didn't knowit:::: with a
great win....15 bonus points and a guaranteed slot on track A in
next week's race at INDY. Great Job Kmack !!!!! Though he finished
8th overall in the standings...the win...along with the extra points
for leading at least 1 lap..Kmack earned 157 points for the
race...equivalent to a top 5 finish !!!! OUTSTANDING !!
Also congrats to BigMike and Mwils....who took 2nd and 3rd place on
Track B.....respectively.

Oh yeah....one mo funny note on this one. Another Nuffer who is
alwayzzzz in da house...another "back bone" of any successful
league...made track A in prequals but wasn't sure as he usually
qualifies for Track B. So he wouldn't accept the Track A invite
right away....lol... "Must be a mistake"....LOL...
Uh Uh ADMIN4LIFE....you tooooo....have shown marked improvement
lately and should not be surprised on making track A...and getting
your first NRL win soon !!
I'm telling you...Having Abbott, Jeremy, Buster, Gift, Boston,
Osuron and other constant
winners in the NRL is INVALUABLE !!!!
But as well....if it weren't for the likes of GREAT NUFFERS like
Admin....Duecey...DiscJockey...Myself...KMack..PITT...SEVEN...etc...etc.....Ahhh....don't get it twisted.... we are not bad racers
at all.... we just don't win alot of races....YET.... The NRL
wouldn't be as strong. You guys....yup...me too...are the BACKBONE.
Not only that...but we are all getting betta so don't be surprised
when you hear that SEVEN took Vegas....or Admin conquered
Atlanta...or Duecey, DJ and PITT had a 3 way photo-finish of their
own!!
LOT TO READ CAUSE THEREZZZZ LOTS TO TALK ABOUT IN THE NRL....
But you now have the whole week to take it all in....lol... so read
a little...break a little... go back and read a little mo...
....yeahhhh...you got it.
Lesseeeeee what the new week will bring !!! Until then....
Nuff Sed
