[Cup] Pep Boys Auto 500 at Atlanta Motor Speedway
4 Races to go
Entrylist Jeff Gordon made his Cup debut at Atlanta fifteen years ago. I like the photo on this page. A real Nigel Mansell mustache. Last edited by FIRE; 26 Oct 2007 at 16:09. |

He looks like Cole Trickle in that photo!
It's all getting rather serious now, isn't it? Can't wait! |

Sam Hornish Jr. failed to qualify again, this may really change his mind about coming to NASCAR if he can't qualify for the races.

But the thing is he has been faster than a lot of guys each time but because of the top 35 owners points rule? he doesn't qualify? what's the point of him turning up if he can't get in anyway even if he makes the field pace wise?

To be honest he has shown zilch promise in the Busch races he did anyways so the Cup grid does not miss his presence.

Dale Jarrett going backwards like he's in reverse.
Nice onboard Craig....you'd probably outqualify Sam Hornish Jr. at that speed! |

Biffle running a second a lap slow with an ailing engine.
Commentary: "He's still running fairly fast." Back on the pace that lap. |

Damn! JPM had a great run going. Is he 1 lap down or 2 laps down now? If he is 1 lap down maybe he can get the lucky dog.
