Since the 2007 Nextel Cup season is already in top gear, the Racers Race drives into it's second year just as fast. Sin-City marks the perfect place for Lust for Life to make another attempt at a video blog. With a nod to one of my favorite show men of all time, the Racers Race goes Around the Track.
Racers Race: Viva Las Vegas
What better place to go all in. It seems like half the field already has their backs up against the wall. Junior needs to finish a race, Kahne needs to start his season, and Smoke needs anything he can get. After Las Vegas Motorspeedway was completely revamped, it's a ####-shoot. Although it is the Busch Brothers home track, no one claims stake at a brand new surface. A track even Tony Stewart admited was designed way too fast. 200 mph through Sin City. The Nextel Cup rolls into Viva Las Vegas this weekend.
MeanD - Are you kidding me? I am a huge Elvis fan. Not a nut, but I do listen to some Elvis albums weekly. I also love when his birthday comes up, because I love seeing an all day movie marathon. The King lives on!
Hey Sidd. Just something about that tune I love and I've never even been to Vegas. Hmmm...I wonder if maybe that's why. I definitely need to get there and find out what the hype is all about.
I went to pick Fantasy driver's this week. Then I realized that the track is "brand new" for all intensive purposes. I had no idea who to pick.
Rivjo - I love that song as well. I'm also a huge fan of Devil in Disguise, which I put in that same Elvis era.
It is anyones race tomoorrow. But looking at the starting grid, check out all the Dodge cars starting position. I think Kasey is going to be tough to beat.
nphotogr - Thanks guy. If you have any questions just ask. I just used a microsoft movie maker software, with some photos. And put in a mp3 into it. I am always happy to help out fellow bloggers. And I am more motivated to help us, NASCAR bloggers.
If you ever have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Siddartha just saw your video blog, fantastic. And I just loved the Elvis theme. I loved the King. I think I have all but two of his movies that he has ever made. Vegas was a great race. And the racing is only going to get better.
TSfanpc - I am so suprised at how many of us are huge Elvis fans. I am glad to hear it. I am starting to think we would all really get along great. I will bring the popcorn for the Elvis movies! Sounds like a great time:)
Tsfanpc - After the day that I just had, there is nothing more that sounds better. I could go for 'Kissing Cousins' right about now. Um, the movie. (for those who don't have a clue.)
Elvis still is the King in my book. I don't think that will ever change for me. To quote John Lennon, 'Before Elvis there was nothing.' I know exactly what he was talking about when it comes to entertainment. Not only did he make the mold for all top entertainers in the world, he set the bar so high that no one could ever come close. Without Elvis there would be no MTV. He made music visual, for better or for worse. But when it came to him doing it, it was all good. Very, very, very, very good.
The man had the voice, the moves, and the look. I think I am going to que my Elvis playlist right now.
You can't stop, or I will pass you. If you slow down, I will outlast you. But when your down, you won't find me laughing. Just one question, I might ask ya. And it might sound like a disaster. But can you make this thing go faster?
