It's the once a year chance for the drivers of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series to win at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It's also the once a year chance for NASCAR fans to catch up on sleep while watching a race at the same time.

To think, now they're running the Nationwide Series at the big track instead of the real stock car track in Indianapolis over at Lucas Oil Raceway. If things go as planned, I'll be at a real racetrack watching a real race while the Nappytime 250 Nationwide race is going on.

One bonus point to the person who accurately guesses how many naps I take during this annual snorefest. I've seen every single Brickyard 400 and I've taken nap(s) during most of them. The only time I didn't take a nap during this race was in 2008 because that race was so hilariously awful, like the Redskins, that you had to keep watching the trainwreck.

And as boring as all but two of the races have been in 2012, and how boring Indianapolis usually is, I can only imagine how god awful this one will be. Maybe they'll manage to get their caution free race with zero lead changes and zero on-track passes that they've been trying so hard to accomplish for the Brickyawn 400. :yay:

Funny stuff. Jeff Gordon won the inaugural Brickyard 400 but when Dale Sr won it the next year in it's second running he proclaimed himself the first 'Man' to win the Brickyard.

The ARCA series races at IRP tonight :yay:

Damn shame NASCAR dumped that track because they'd rather the Cup drivers overload the crappy Nationwide race that will be a snorefest on an incredibly boring track.

Brian France is destroying NASCAR, piece by piece.

The ARCA race is turning out to be an instant classic. Best asphalt race all year.

Frank Kimmel, who is to ARCA what Cal Ripken is to the Orioles, has not won a race since September 2008.... leading at IRP.

FINALLY!!!! Frank Kimmel returns to victory lane for the first time since 2008 for his 75th career win! :yahoo:

He showed those young whippersnappers how it's done. :yay:



Follow that up, NASCAR.

Nationwide race was a joke. Here's the summary:

There were like 100 people there.

Kyle Busch jumps the start, NASCAR calls it legal saying Kahne was too slow on the start.

Danica Patrick dumped Clevalley's favorite driver (Reed Sorenson).

Kyle Busch dominated before taking himself out.

Elliott Sadler was penalized for jumping a restart at the end of the race when Brad Keselowski got a slow restart. Sadler appealed, saying Keselowski didn't get going (which is correct) and saying he was shoved across the line by Austin Dillon on the restart (which is also correct).

Basically, it's legal to jump restarts if you're Kyle Busch. :yay:

The ARCA race was the real race.

Baja28 your LAST picks were from Daytona , 2 (TWO) races ago!

:coffee: Dipstick , OHG , Dutch6 and myself have Stewart for the WIN ! Huntr1 & Clevalley have 5 Time for WIN . Should be interesting .:whistle:

A quick update on HD20's quest for that bonus point: Nap number one begins shortly.

Thank God for the Olympics.

NASCAR needs to "reconfigure" the schedule and move Indy's Cup date to Iowa.

It's the once a year chance for the drivers of the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series to win at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It's also the once a year chance for NASCAR fans to catch up on sleep while watching a race at the same time.

Had me 1 nap already ! What your definition of nap ? Mine is any time I close eyes and listen to race , awaking to announcer say Caution on track

A quick update on HD20's quest for that bonus point: Nap number one begins shortly.

1 down ,:yahoo: : 1 to go ! Be honest now ! :buddies:

Second nap in the books, looks like there's time for one or two more.

5 Time found that lucky damn horse shoe !

If NASCAR wants to know why they're losing viewers left and right and why the stands are empty, they need to turn this race on as it's the perfect example.

I'm going to go do some productive stuff, like watch my grass turn brown from the drought.

TWO !:whistle:

My guess will be that Joey Logano wouldn't receive a Christmas card from the Kenseth's this year. :killingme

Trevor Bayne could've given Joey a lot more room.

Damn Rookie :whistle:

Shut out the lights, the party's over. And it looks like Clevalley's basically wrapped up his second championship.

Jimmie Johnson wins the Brickyard 400 :barf:

Shut out the lights, the party's over. And it looks like Clevalley's basically wrapped up his second championship.

Not Quite ! Clevalley has 3 point lead over Huntr1 and 6 over me and I haven't heard No Fat Lady sing :whistle:

Congratulations on your bonus point. It would have been four naps if not for the Olympics.

Standing after Brick Yard

Clevalley 42 + 6 = 48
Huntr1 37 + 8 = 45
HomeDepot20 40 + 2 = 42
OldHillCrestGuy 37 + 3 = 40
Dutch6 36 + 3 = 39
baja28 33 NP = 33
Dipstick 31 + 1 = 32

When will NASCAR learn that stock cars don't belong at Indianapolis?

Congrats to Clevalley & Huntr1 for picking :dingding: ( I can't say his name :evil: ) and also Double congrats to Huntr1 for picking 4 out 5 correct :cheers:

Congratulations on your bonus point. It would have been four naps if not for the Olympics.

And to think, next week we get to look forward to the breathtaking action of Pocono.

Little that 5-Time knows , I have a relative who works for the Speed way and he let his dogs perform their " Business " on the Bricks :whistle: on the exact spot he kissed !:killingme:killingme:killingme

I can think of another place for Jimmie Johnson to plant his kiss. :moon:

Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go catch up on the sleep that I could have got while I was hoping and waiting for the late race caution that didn't come out.

Dale Earnhardt JR :yahoo: NEW POINT LEADER !
