Gotta throw one out for Brooklyn Michigan this weekend, being so close to Detroit ‘Rock City’, home state of my lyrical fav Kid Rock, and hosting this weeks NASCAR entertainment.
This is going to be the Turnaround weekend for our man Kurt Busch. Seeing that the last time we were here we WON!! Some Kurt stats for Michigan are as follows. Last year in the spring we finished 25th, 2 laps down, OUCH. And of course the win in the fall. In ‘06 finished 9th in the spring and 40th in the fall due to an accident. ‘05 Kurt was still with Rousch and had a 12th place in the spring and 7th in fall. Rusty Wallace had a 10th place finish in the spring and a 13th place finish in the fall that same year. I would predict a top 10, but with the way the season has gone so far it’s all up in the air to me. We just can’t seem to commit to solid finishes and I think that learning this new car has been one of the issues with this camp. Fact of the matter is we really need a top 5 and a win would be spectacular for the points race. But after seeing how the team dug back for an impressive 8th place finish in Pocono, I am really feeling a good vibe for this weekend. What are your thoughts/predictions?
GOOD LUCK TO KURT THIS WEEKEND!
HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO ALL OF YOU DADS!

Go Kurt!
He needs a strong finish this weekend. Time is getting short. Great post, and I second the Father’s Day greetings.

Beastie Boys Rule!
Now that we will be starting by points standings, the road ahead (or should I say track) looks pretty rough. These have not been Kurts strong starting spots for the season. Hopefully with a little wit from Tryson we can jump to the front like we did at Pocono.

I hope
you’re/we’re right about Kurt. Boy, a victory would sure be sweet! And I love that song (No Sleep ‘Till Brooklyn)!
