Sunny in Ireland? WTH!

Ahhhhhh.....

For once its actually warm and sunny, It appears we're having an early summer heat wave (which is about 22 degree's in Ireland - WOW right?). It would be nice for those of you who love the sun and warmth, but for me, it sucks. I hate heat, I hate the sun, I hate sunburn, I want it to snow!
Anyway, snow isn't looking likely so I'll just carry on, cowering inside on my laptop... blogging.
So NASCAR...

First off;
I officially hate Kyle Busch, he just can't keep his mouth shut, especially where it's not wanted, and it's just like him to take a shot when another driver is struggling, He got what he deserved in the end though a shit week in NASCAR's three top divisions.
Nationwide Series;
I didn't get to catch the Nationwide Series race as I was babysitting, so I just followed the leader-board on NASCAR.com.
My two favourite drivers finished first (Brad Keselowski) and Second (Joey Logano), plus Jr was there in victory lane to celebrate with Brad and its good to see a smile on his face, especially with the week he had. The win was a real boost for JR Motorsports too!



Sprint Cup Series;
Oh yeah onto the good stuff! The Autism Speaks 400 at Dover!
Ok, so i did miss the last 70 or so laps of the race because I had to babysit (Its been months since I've had to babysit, then i have to babysit for two different cousins, two different nights, on the same weekend, I'm not complaining though, its a few bob!) Anyway, yeah, so before 7pm hit I searched for DVD's, none of which were blank so I deleted what was on them on and set one up to record the race!

I have to admit I was really apprehesive about the race, as to how Jr would run with his new interm Crew Cheif and crew members. I needn't have been worried, he did fucking brilliant! He had a top 5 car most of the day, but one little setback with the setup made him have to return to the pits, which left him 17th, but he fought back and finished 12th! Which certainly beats his Coca Cola 600 finish which was 40th.
So yes, very happy with how he ran and he's happy too.
Aswell as that, Tony Eury Jr is doing fine aswell!, He's heading to Infineon Raceway with Jimmie Johnson for testing, because Chad Knaus will be busy. Thats awesome, I hated to think that he;d be left to the side, but he's not and for Chad to be leaning on Eury Jr is awesome!

Finally, I was looking through random Dale Earnhardt Jr picture's and I think I found my favourite one ever!

Have a look! =)
