A win is a win. He's certainly not the first to win by rain delay and won't be the last. And besides he's my guy

In my eyes Matt K is like tony stewart but nobody seems to know it except a few fans with a keen eye.

TV dictates when, how and where the races will be----NASCAR wants the money from the TV!

Funny, Canada has CASCAR which is just a spin off of NASCAR. I guess for you (if you're from Canada) it makes it just a bunch of hosers going around in a circle. 
If case no one has noticed all racetracks go in a circle. Be it road course, road circuit (city streets), ovals, F1, Indy, German Touring, or NASCAR they all finish where they started. And I call that a circle.

I like Kenseth, not my favorite, but I like to see him win. True that, Matt, Stewert and about 6 others I think can really wheel it, the rest are field fillers.

LOL!
People that don't get it, don't understand it. I thought the same thing years ago when DH got me started, just going in circles until I started realizing the mechanics of it all. NHRA is great too.
I love the smell of methanol in the morning.

There's nothing better than the smell and sounds of a finely tuned engine, smoking slicks in the burnout box, and followed by a quick pass! Now if I was to ever live my dream life, every morning would start with a quick 1/4 mile pass in my own Pro Stock car on my own dragstrip!

Every once in a while DH likes to put race fuel in our 69 Camaro, loves the smell.
