Only watched part of the show.  I have decided for my part that I will no longer call it racing.  It is a JJ, MM and JG show with sometimes a few other btw type mentions and then more hype over the fantastic season, chase and combo of JJ and CK....very tiring and boring so I got lots of yard work done during that show. And then tried to wear out the ff button on my remote.  How about you all?

You weren't the only one, Viv.

ABC’s broadcast of Sunday’s Tums Fast Relief 500 NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Martinsville Speedway earned a 2.5 overnight Nielsen Media Research rating, Street & Smith’s SportsBusiness Daily reports.

The rating is 13.8 percent lower than the 2.9 ABC earned overnight for the race in 2008.

Didn't catch one lap of the race because I spent the day in Columbus.  Went to see the last home game of the Crew.  Sounds like I didn't miss much.

Did anyone ever think they would see the day when Martinsville would have so very many empty seats?  Nascar seems to think it is the economy but the economy does not effect tv viewing that much.  The show does...

I got called in to work and missed the whole race.  Guess I didn't miss much. 

At least I won't have to worry about working this weekend.  Just got done loading the truck and we're leaving for Dega tomorrow.
