+GATOULIS Posted May 9, 2009 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Hello! I am back! Did the race end? Can I pick a driver? hmm... I saw that the winner will also have 20 minutes to answer some questions.... but what if the winner is from Europe of an other place with big time difference?? I mean, if you place the questions right after the race, most probably we will sleeping at that time! right now, it is almsot 2:30 in the morning in Greece!! Anyway....in case I can still pick a driver.... let's pick..... Denny Hamlin # 11! I do not think he will... but you never know! Link to comment

+teamhaynes Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I am watching, inviting others to the geocoin address book, and listening to the DJ Rock Coin mix. Not a bad evening (Mom and Kids are out tonight) Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Ok now that the movie is over he FINALLY let me watch the race!!! I have a newbie question now. What it s "free Pass"? Link to comment
+teamhaynes Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 (edited) Ok now that the movie is over he FINALLY let me watch the race!!! I have a newbie question now. What it s "free Pass"? When someone is down a lap, depending on how the caution comes out they can gain the lap back. Below is copied from a nascar site As of a couple years ago the drivers were allowed to "race back to the yellow flag", meaning they could try to pass as many cars as they could until they got back to the flag stand where they would get the yellow flag. This made for danger to the wrecked cars and many cars making a "mad dash" to get past the leader to get a lap back. In order to improve safety NASCAR now "freezes the field" when the yellow comes out, not allowing any more passing. In order to allow lapped cars to still have a chance to get past the leader and get a lap back they now allow the first lapped car to get a "free pass" and get his lap back. Kind of a "we took away your chance to get a lap back by driving crazy and gave one of you a safe chance to get that lap back". Edited May 10, 2009 by teamhaynes Link to comment
+FScout Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Also listening to DJ Rock's mix.. Link to comment

+seekerfamily Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Certainly is the track too tough to tame as the picks are fading fast Kyle Busch in the garage and there goes Carl Edwards Link to comment
+GATOULIS Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hello tto all! Who won?? Definatelly not my driver, but who?? I will be happy if my driver is in the first 10! Link to comment
KD1EJ Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Hello tto all! Who won?? Definatelly not my driver, but who?? I will be happy if my driver is in the first 10! Good morning , Mark Martin won the race Link to comment
+kini_ont Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Tired last night, went to bed after all 99 was out. Woke up this morning to see who the winner was and what no winner for the coin this week!!! Boy can we pick them KD1EJ & Opalsns maybe you should make the contest easier for us, like who will wreck first and be out (I'd win that one I'm sure ) or who has more of the car left intact (did you see Kyle running around without the front end and no hood) Anyway I always enjoy this contest, after all a buddy of mine told me I should be watching NASCAR years ago (all it took was a little wee cointest easy huh) Link to comment
+Chickahominy Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 No one picked Mark Martin? How about that. I think I heard them say on the news that he is one of the oldest to win at Darlington. Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 No one picked Mark Martin? How about that. I think I heard them say on the news that he is one of the oldest to win at Darlington. He won for me a couple of weeks ago when he had the pole. He dominated that race from start to finish. This race was different and I didn't think anyone dominated so it was anybody's race if they could keep off those walls! Link to comment

+opalsns Posted May 10, 2009 Author Share Posted May 10, 2009 Good Morning All, Yup, The Gentleman racer himself, Mr. Mark Martin. He was born in 1959 and won the 59th race at Darlington....WOOO HOOOO. Tony and Ryan did well again. I have verbally defended Tony Stewart on several occasions to many people since he was a Rookie. You have to have Attitude to make it in this world today. He just had it a little sooner and look where he his. When He wins the Championship this year, he will have accomplished more his first year as owner/ driver of a brand new team, than he ever has!!!!!!!! Hey KD1EJ, we'll have to make it easier for the kids!!!!!!!! Muhahaha!!! HAPPY MOTHER"S DAY ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He's BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment

I was in Philly visiting my parents for Mother's Day (of course on the trip I had to grab a few caches, including the first caches I ever found that were more than 100 miles from my house). Mum doesn't like caching or geocoins, and since it was Mother's Day, I decided not to try to log on to make a pick. PS...please check out the Thank You thread that I started this morning. I received your pkg on Saturday while I was away, but what a nice thing to come home to! Thank you so much! Link to comment
