Guess Robert finds hiself signing a different tune than he did when the NASCAR busted the #48 team, eh? On a happier note, rumblings from 'the rumor mill' indicate the possible return of Ward Burton!!

This weekend provides one of the best shows in the NASCAR season, Darlington. "The Track Too Tough To Tame" will give the newbie fans a glimpse into what old school racing was all about.

NASCAR's decision to take away the Southern 500 Labor Day race from Darlington and put it at the utterly boring Fontana track was a terrible injustice and slap in the face to its longtime fans. The best thing NASCAR could do would be to move the final race in the Chase to Darlington. That would be some show. Unfortunately, it'll never happen. NASCAR has forgotten its roots and moved uptown.
