Texas Motor Speedway Owner offered Junior $100,000 to race in the June race. Is that enough to lure him? How do you think he would do?

The police dashcam video was ciculation on the internet for awhile. I think the guy robbed a Speedway on E. Galbraith, then carjacked a vehicle, and then led police on a chase on Southbound I-75. When he finally pulled over (or wrecked) he was on the bridge, and before the cops could get to him he took a flying leap over the side into the Ohio river.
Internet searches I’ve done have only come up with the story from that day 12/11/06-12/12/06, and at the time no name had been released. So does anyone know who he was? Has his body been found? Are there theories going around about him? I don’t live in Cincy anymore, so I don’t have access to that stuff.

Hey…I’ll be going to the Busch Series race at California Speedway in Fontana on 2/24. This will be my first NASCAR race I’l be attending, and I’m looking for all the advice/tips/whatever you have to give. Thanks!
EDIT: I just found out I might be able to go to the Nextel race on the 25th…I am acquiing the tickets through my friend who works at Irwindale as the Chaplain. They are in Sect. 39., Row 45, Seats 12, 13, and 14. I also get pit passes and party zone passes.

SWEET!

What would you give it?? Mine is:

Racing: C- It’s basically follow the leader at the 1.5 mile tracks
Cost: B+ The teams can use short track cars at 1.5 mile speedways
Safety: A++ I don’t think I need to explain on this

I am trying to book my brother tickets as a birthday gift for a race at Michigan Speedway. The problem is that I don’t know which race is better…Lifelock 400 or 3M Performance. I don’t know much about Nascar, but I do recoginize some of the names (Jeff Gordon, Earnhardt Jr., Jimmie Johnson)…would these racers be at both races?
Also, I am looking at tickets in Turn 3 - Row 55-69…are these good seats?
Thanks!

AT&T officials are investigating their options and are unsure what the Richard Childress Racing #31 Chevy for Jeff Burton will look like this weekend at Michigan International Speedway. “We’re looking at a variety of options - we haven’t really settled on which ones we’ll pursue at this point, both on a legal front and a non-legal front,” AT&T spokesman Mark Siegel said Tuesday morning. “One of the things we’re looking at is exactly what the car will look like this weekend. We’re considering our options, and we haven’t reached a decision yet.”

I wonder what will happen?
You know RCR has a few other sponsors that might could step up and sponsor Jeff Burton for the remainder of the season. I just wish they would make a decision soon, I hate my driver is having to go through with with his team and RCR and even AT&T.
Possible Sponsors?
- Lenox Industrial Tools
- Prilosec OTC
- Holiday Inn (for Cup)
- Directv
- Camping World
- Reeses
If anyone finds out or knows more updated info on Jeff Burton’s sponsor for this weekend (or if they come to a decision for the remainder of the year) please let me know. Thank You.

If you were on thr NASCAR Nextel Cup Rules Committee how would you design engines (minus plates) to be used on the two super speedways. Keeping in mind no higher speeds would be allowed.

I live in Speedway and am going to start planning where I want to move soon. Any suggestions of nice neighborhoods where I can buy a house in Marion County?
I currently live with my parents. I am working and saving money for a car. After a year I’m going to get a car and then two years of saving after that, I am hoping to have a house. By that time I am hoping to have saved up around $10,000 for my down payment. I am planning on making around $22,000/year.
