For those of you that like racing and dirt track racing at it's best, particularly open wheel racing, we have just announced the Turkey Grand Prix preivously held at Toyata Speedway at Irwindale (asphalt) will now return to it's roots on the dirt at Perris Auto Speedway Thanksgiving night. Midgets (not the little people folks) from all across the country will be competing in one of the most prestigious races in the nation. Maybe see some talented big time racers will show up here in So. Cal at the finest clay oval on the West Coast.
If you like a little more horsepower (850 to 900 hp) we also host the Budweiser Oval Nationals at the PAS too. It's a USAC/CRA National and Western 410 non wing points race where you can watch the best in the business sling some mud. 2 day race the first weekend in Nov.
If Stock cars are your liking we are also having the 1st Annual Street Stock Turkey Bowl on Friday and Sat. following the Thanksgiving. Cars from the Western United States will be battling on the track for the $22,000.00+ purse. I will be a very busy lady for that weekend as I am also a competitor in this event as well as the infield announcer/pit reporter.

YES!

Well that moved Denny up to #8 and less than 100 laps of the leader. A couple more wins and some good finishes gives him a good chance!

I'm thinking Hamlin and Grubb have their game on.

Hey John, see your boy Denny sitting at the top of the points!!! The boy is having himself a year. Even when he doesn't win he drives a good consistent race and I'm thinking he's got a shot to finish on top!

I'm hoping so my friend.
Bad calls cost him 3 wins this season, I hope this gets out of their system quick.
It would be way cool for Grubb to have back to back championships with 2 different drivers. :-)

Well he should do well up in Chicago this weekend. A 1.5 mile oval suites him just fine so I am sure he should have another top 5 finish.
Vegas has him as second in the odds...
JIMMIE JOHNSON 9/4
DENNY HAMLIN 9/2
DALE EARNHARDT JR 8/1
JEFF GORDON 9/1

Maybe he'll win 5 chase races like Stewart did last year. :-)

Damn John, Denny is just having a GREAT year!!! Little setback in Richmond and Chicago but right back in Loudon to show he ain't going nowhere.
What a chase with 12 drivers within 45 points of the top and 8 races to go. And what a list of drivers! Got a feeling it might go all the way down to Homestead!
1 Jimmie Johnson
2 Brad Keselowski -1
3 Denny Hamlin -7
4 Tony Stewart -10
5 Kasey Kahne -15
6 Clint Bowyer -15

Lucky I held my breath on the final lap. :-)

I think its laughable...everyone going the same way and all left turns...I wonder what all the fuss is about...hairpins, hills gullies and dirty long straights, right turns and a track that is only 2 and half car widths wide, now thats what I call racing.

Back to a big track at Talladega this weekend. Should be another great race.
So far they have JJ as the favorite with Denny as a close second... I think I would give JR better than 15/1 odds, he has been driving pretty consistent recently.

Must be why your big V-8 series star Marcus Ambrose has done less than stellar in our simple NASCAR series.

I get nervous when Denny is favoured.

oops, guess I got excited about Taladega and skipped right over Dover - those odds were for the Dover race yesterday. Realized that when I started watching the race - knew something didn't look right

That's okay Lucky, I used to loose entire weeks myself
I do love Taladega racing though. Looking forward to Sunday!
