Fast Laps - whether it’s NASCAR testing in windy Las Vegas or sporty car racing in the darkness of Daytona, the ON PIT ROW crew will take ‘em wherever they are. If you read this blog, you probably feel the same way, more or less.
After a bit of a break in posting, The Fast Lap Blog is back for another season of bickering and back-biting over four weekly topics that we think will stir the pot. We have big plans for The Fast Lap and everything else connected to OnPitRow.com in 2008.
The Toyotas were fast again in the first day of testing on the mile-and-a-halfer in the dessert. But watch those Roush Fords. They were quick too and if they can get there old superspeedway form back with the NewCar, The Cat in the Hat’s Fusions will be factors in 2008.
The Fast Lap is a comment blog and this is no test. Try these four high banked turns while you wait for the Dodges to show their stuff. They will.
1) Chip Ganassi Racing’s three-peat at the 24 hours is unprecedented. Why isn’t he as successful in Cup as he is in sports cars or open wheel?
2) What is more impressive — sharing a forth of the driving duties of the Rolex 24 or doing 4 hours of restrictor plate racing solo?
3) There is quite a seasoned group of rookies along with some young hot shoes running in Cup in 2008. Who will win the ROTY?
4) DJ or Rusty in the booth?
The first Fast Lap of 2008 and there ain’t nothin’ cookie-cutter about it. Express yourself and you may end up on the next episode of The Fastest Two Hours on Radio - ON PIT ROW!
About the Fast Lap blog
Fast Laps! Welcome to the On Pit Row Fast Lap blog. Every week On Pit Row we pose four Fast Lap questions. Four corners - four questions. On the radio show, Steve and I have 30 seconds each, to give our response to each of the four. If you are a listener, you already know that we rarely agree on any answer. The Fast Lap is NASCAR debate. Hannity and Colmes. Lincoln and Douglas. Wronkowicz and Turner. OK, maybe not Lincoln and Douglas. We have more fun than Lincoln and Douglas. Here's the challenge. We will post our Fast Lap questions some time each Monday. Four questions on topical NASCAR related subjects. Your mission is to comment with your answers and each answer is limited to 100 words. The questions, answers and comments will form the basis of this blog for that week. Comment on the Fast Lap questions. Comment on the comments. Insult the commenters. Witty ridicule is rated at least as highly as cogent commentary. Just remember that you have limited words and penalties are severe. Or not. Steve and I will select worthy blog entries to be featured on an edition of On Pit Row. That's the plan. I'm sure we will have some other things to post about each week but the intention is to pose most posts as questions. I want to argue with you! Bring it on.

NASCAR Fantasy Racing
On Pit Row is glad to be a part of such a great NASCAR fantasy racing game like Champs, Chumps & Sleepers. Grand prize is a Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure. How cool is that?
