Ringers finish at the back because it is very hard to drive a Crown
Vic when Ladke isn't working in the pits and Louie isn't on the
microphone. Can't they find American ringers?

The N in NASCAR is for national. Paul Tracy is not a national and
does not belong there.

He must belong to some sort of Nation, no?

Yes, but his nation is not included in Nascar's "National"

Is it OK to race a Toyota if you are an American driver?

Must be, NASCAR says so ;-)

It is okay for American drivers to race a Toyota because innovation is a key

to NASCAR.

Chevy puts active handling in the C6. How come NA$Cball only lets Jeff
Gordon have it?

You mean some sort of Nation, eh?

LOL! I'll laugh at that one since no one else did. Subtle. But very funny.

Considering that Tracy wants to make the move to Nascar, I thought his
participation in this race was a waste of time. If he wanted to run only
7
races to preserve his rookie status, he should have stuck with ovals,
where
any experience he would have gotten would have been far more valuable.

I really don't think Paul cares too much about rookie status. He is
running
these races to get a taste of what its like before he starts his real job.
His real job pays much better than a large percentage of the Nascar field,
but not top drivers. What I do think he likely sees is that a Cup drivers
career is much longer than an open wheel career. I suspect he sees stock
cars as a career extender. Any experience would be valuable. In April
the
Champ Car season kicks off and he will be too busy to do many if any more
races once the season starts.

I can't be the only one that noticed that he got beat yet again,
not only by John Andretti (as fully expected and whom, like all
his betters, he loves to bad mouth) but also by A J Foyt IV?

Ouch, that's GOTTA hurt like hell, and leave a mark!!!
