Darn Foreigners invade and conquer Atlanta


364112.jpg

First let's get this straight, I don't watch NASCAR or at least haven't since my pudgy ass attended the first Inaugural Brickyard 400. I don't like going fast in straight lines. Or just turning left. But, it is one of the most popular forms of motorsports.

And realistically, I just wanted to beat Jim at posting something about NASCAR. ;)

Kyle Busch, brought the first import to victory at the Kobalt Tools 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway in his Snicker's Toyota Camry. I could give you other details on the race, but ummmm, I got really bored reading all the press releases.

The last borderline-interesting fact is that Kyle Busch, at age 22, was the youngest winner ever at Atlanta Motor Speedway.

Apologies to all those who are looking for a more detailed recap. I am sure Jim will chime in via comments and let me know I am a moron for not covering the whole gauntlet.

Wow.  That victory has to upset some of the die-hard Nascar fans I would imagine.  I have only been to one race and it was a blast. 
After 12 light beers or so, you can really get into it.

@Charley - After 12 light beers, the mad dash to find the nearest makeshift urinal would be a welcome diversion from the crapfest that is NASCAR.
