Yeah, I know the NASCAR thing will be decided later today, but I'm really looking forward to the first F1 race in the USA (since 2007, I believe) in Austin, Texas at the new Circuit of the Americas facility. The 'green' track was really slippery in practice sessions, but most cars were beginning to get some grip in qualifying. Vettel on the pole, Alonso 9th, but anything can happen in those first few corners. I just hope we have a good race and the championship goes to the final race of the season. I'm pullin' for Fernando in the Ferrari, and I'd like to see Mr. Penske finally get a NASCAR championship, so I'll have to go with Brad in Rusty's old 'Blue Deuce".
However things turn out, I hope everyone enjoys the racing today, and then celebrates by giving the old slot set a good workin' over tonight!
Be safe and have a blast! -- Ernie
