Fike Arrested

This is a link to the story on NOL if you haven't all ready heard: http://www.nascar.com/2007/news/headlines/truck/07/09/afike.drug.charges/index.html

Basically, he was arrested for possesion of heroin and drug paraphernalia. The police searched his car after he tried to drive off when he was stopped by park security and hit the officer with his mirror.

I'm sure that Fike will be suspended, and I hope it's for life. This was really, really, stupid on his part, I don't feel bad for him at all. He threw away an opportunity that so many people would die for, by doing something that's a completley stupid thing to do regardless of your career or success. Obviously, he doesn't appreciate the wonderful opportunity that he was given, and deserves any penalty NASCAR, or the law, gives him.

Kvapil wins truck race

I watched most of the truck race at Michigan, it was pretty good. There was a lot of 3+ wide racing, and the top 5 were constantly going at it for the lead towards the end. In the last laps it was Kyle Busch and Travis Kvapil, and Kyle was really loose in front of Travis. I was just thankful that Kvapil ended up completing the pass on Kyle Busch, I was worried for a little he wouldn't, but even more worried that when he did Kyle would take him out! Luckily, Kyle's trying to get a job and it wouldn't look to good if he did that ;)

My man Rick Crawford (Yea, he's #14, but I like HIM not just his number) did pretty good there towards the end, and one of the last cautions he restarted 15th and ended up getting up to 6th. Almost a top five, but lost it by a nose :(
