I am all about a shout out and reppin my 2 favorite drivers. GO 8 & 12 Nascar is where it's at!!
My Motto : I am always down for havin a good time and makin my own fun.... on the regular. As long as I am chillin with my friends, we are bound to have a good time. But ya really know it's
going down proper when it comes to going to a race and being at the track. That may be why I find it necessary to roll out to atleast 5-6 races a year. Anything nascar related (races, appearances,
charitable events) is a good reason for an impromptu road trip. Each time with the intent of havin a blast with friends and coming away with some long lasting memories. This sport rocks!! Just
chillin and takin it all in has been a blast.
Most definitely I have to give ashout out to Dale Jr, Ryan Newman, and the rest of their supporting cast that have in any way helped to add to my ohhh so awesome nascar experience. Somehow they have
both (directly and indirectly) managed to have a positive impact on how I have grown to appreciate the sport.
Only been a fan since 2000 so Jr and Newman are my roots in this sport. I try to make the best of each event I attend and I am always learning somethin new along the way. Takin lots of pics and
scrapbookin has allowed me togo back and remember to appreciate some of my favorite moments as well as document my great experiences.
Here.... I had already been parlayin in miami for 2 days and was all about headin out to south beach to get my party on for the night. But the bonus that night....... unexpectedly meeting one of your
drivers for the 1st time. Rock on Jr!!
Yeah...Well, sometimes ya gotta improvise if ya wanna get a pic with Dale Jr. I certainly aint shy so......sometimes ya gotta randomly drop it like its hot one time to get low enough to be in the
pic.
One of my fav photos that I took...............Dale Jr representin up in da club!! I had no idea that he was bout to get all hip hop on the floor. Bottom line....he can dance
Bonus at the track......Havin your driver run the Cup and Busch race. Hell that is just double my fun
Congrats on puttin the Alltel Dodge in Victory Lane. Newman did his thang that day fo sho!! Can I just say.....off the hook - Nothing like seeing a victory lane celebration for the 1st time!! The
vibe, the energy, the excitement....words just dont do it justice. Definitely one of my most memorable nascar moments!! Cheers to many more visits there for the 12 & 8 teams
Newman is "Da Shiznit" I did eventually have to edit the sign as I got busted by a nascar official. He sure did try to confiscate my sign. Whatever....this sign goes with me to every race so I just
edited it after the pic was taken.
BIG PIMPIN - Yeah...Kick da pose....Rashaun style Ya gotta bring da funk and add a lil flava.
Just Chillin at Fan Day. Later onthat day I would get to see him run a USAC race for the 1st time. It was a brilliant idea to incorporate it into fan day. Newman fans were in awe of course. Back to
his roots and my 1st time seeing him run on this kind of race and I was thoroughly confused startin with quals to heat races and everything else. Awesome, I have a newfound appreciation for the local
tracks
I missed gettin a pic of him runnin at fan day but capitalized when he ran another USAC race in Columbus, OH over the 4th of July. It was a blast. Now if I could just make it when Stewart and the
gang run at Eldora. Another hop skip and a jump away from me in OH
PIT ROAD PETS ( Nascar Stars and Their Pets) - A quick pic and shout out to Laura Lacy (writer) & Krissie Newman. What a great book and for a great cause. Lots of drivers took the time to
participate in this project for the Ryan Newman Foundation. Looks like your hard work paid off ladies.
Hangin with one of my best friends, Chrissy and I take part in the Duvall Crawl in Key west. One of our stops...SloppyJoes. CHEERS
Stewart absolutely gave me a hard time bout my Newman is....Da Shiznit shirt. He thought he should remind me that Newman was still behind him in the points. Nice
My friend Ashley & I at Penske. Cant go to NC without visitin the race shops!!
Reed Sorenson in the house. Certainly if my driver doesnt end up in VL, I would not mind seeing Sorenson there. I am all about some up and coming talent
Excited to sit in the back and watch Dale Jr do the hat dance in his VL celebration at MIS. And waiting patiently for him to head out to do media
You know it's bout to go down when they break out the beer bong. I am out on that but holla if you bust out with the beer pong Partying back at the site and of course it's going down. None for me
tho...unfortunately I do not drink beer. But I will sport the gear like I am an avid bud drinker. For me.... I am all about a long island ice tea.
The Alltel Pit Crew is on point. Gotta give a shout out to Trent Cherry for preppin the fellas and doing his thang. you can find him throwin the football on pit road on race day. A USC fan
tho....C'mon I am from Ohio.... Go Buckeyes
THE ORIGINAL CANDYMAN.....NO MATTER WHAT HE IS DRIVING.
We dont know it yet, but he is bout to put the ALLTEL dodge in victory lane. I knew he was flyin in practice.
Go Reed...I had a blast watchin him in the busch series so naturally I will pull for him in Cup too.
Yeah...that Newman is somethin else I tell ya Don MIller and I stop for a quick pose to represent that favorite driver of ours.
Sincerely...The Jr cruise was probably one of the most fun weeks of my life. I had one of the besttimes of my life gettin to share this experience with one of my best friends.Shopping by day, party
by night. We made our own fun and it was nonstop. WE came on the boat ready to set sail.
Newman and I gettin our hoop on. Ohhhh I so wish we could see the score board. We managed to play probably about 8X
because a clash of 2 competitors means neither of us wanted to quit on the loss. It was pretty even but I did win by the largest margin...that's the tie breaker...right? By the way he aint really
admittin to the loss
My hobbies Dancin -I am all about shakin my Beyonce in da club. I listen to all kinds of music.When it comes to the club..I am all hip hop. But I listen to everything cuz I appreciate good music period. Nascar
of course. It is a lifestyle just like hip hop is to me. I live it!! Probably attend 5-7 races a year, a few fan days, and most definitely driver/charity events. I am all about a road trip And I love
to play sports on the regular. Am in leagues year round - Volleyball, basketball, and softball YEAH I KNOW..... I LOVE PICS
Hey Girl.... I just wanted to stop by and say HI!!!! How ya doing?? What do you think about Ryan Newman leaving Penske??? I wish the best for Ryan.. He's a nice guy!!
Not a Rumor: Newman to leave Penske at end of 2008 season
nascar.com By Team Release July 14, 2008 02:09 PM EDT
MOORESVILLE, N.C. -- Penske Racing and Ryan Newman have mutually agreed to move in new directions at the conclusion of the 2008 season.
"We want to thank Ryan for his hard work and contributions to Penske Racing over the past nine years," team owner Roger Penske said. "We wish Ryan all the best for the future and we'll continue
to focus our efforts on making the Chase with Ryan and the Alltel Dodge team this season."
Newman, driver of the No. 12 Dodge, is currently in his ninth season competing for Penske Racing. He is ranked 16th in the Cup Series standings through 19 races.
Newman has 13 wins in 243 starts with 63 top-five finishes and 105 top-10s. Since his debut on Nov. 5, 2000, at Phoenix he also has 43 poles -- tops in the Cup Series -- despite not running his
first full season until 2002.
"I appreciate Penske Racing and all they have done for me, but more importantly, I appreciate their friendship and what they have done for my career," Newman said. "I would also like to thank all
of the sponsors, especially Alltel, who have supported me."
Newman finished in the top 10 in points from 2002-05, but has finished 18th and 13th the past two seasons.
The driver of the Penske Racing No. 12 car for the 2009 season will be announced in the near future.
"From the early days in the ARCA series to our team celebration in Victory Lane at this year's Daytona 500, Alltel Wireless has enjoyed a memorable, eight-year relationship with Ryan Newman,"
said Jeff Fox, chief operating officer, Alltel Wireless.
"Ryan has been an outstanding representative on and off the track, and we're very proud of the results the partnership has delivered to our brand. We remain committed to our sponsorship of the
No. 12 Alltel Dodge and look forward to having Ryan behind the wheel for the rest of the 2008 season. We wish him all the best in his next endeavor."
That endeavor may be as a teammate of fellow Indiana native Tony Stewart, who official announced last week that he is leaving Joe Gibbs Racing at season's end to drive for Stewart-Haas Racing in
2009. It has been widely speculated that Newman also would drive for SHR next year.
I haven't been posting to ya all no Big resoning just been really, really LAZY is all and I mean real lazy lol.
Sooooooo what's been up with you all out there? having some good times? behaving yourselves?... Well you can probably tell I haven't been up to nothing real exciting cuz I've been lazy... rear
end glued to the couch starring at the boob tube so I'm hoping things pick up soon then I will have something to yack to you all about I know you can hardly wait so stay tuned. If you have the
time let me know what's been up with ya it's quiet in these parts. Enjoy the rest of your evening TTYL Andrea.
NEWMAN RUMORS
Jayski.com 7-9-2008
Office Depot to Stewart UPDATE 3 Stewart granted release from Gibbs:
been told that Office Depot will be the sponsor for Tony Stewart in 2009 when he drives for Haas CNC Racing
which is will buy in to. Hearing the announcement of the buy and deal will be made in Indianapolis the week NASCAR is in Indy for the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard, July 27th.
UPDATE:
Tony Stewart is expected to announce a 2009 move to Haas-CNC Racing at Indianapolis Motor Speedway in three weeks. Reliable sources tell Sirius Speedway that Stewart will also
announce sponsorship from Office Depot and Old Spice as part of a new, multi-year package with Haas CNC, and that Penske Racing’s Ryan Newman will join him as a teammate, with sponsorship from
Jack Daniels. That surprise move comes as the result of an enviable situation at Richard Childress Racing, which now has five potential sponsors for next season, and only four teams. Sirius
Speedway has learned that UPS will move from Michael Waltrip Racing’s #44 Toyota to the quarterpanels of Clint Bowyer’s #07 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet in 2009, leaving Jack Daniels in
search of a new driver. That driver will be Newman, who is set to sign-on with Stewart at Haas CNC.
UPDATE:
Stewart was scheduled to tell his team on Wednesday that this will be his last season, then announce on Thursday in Chicago that he has bought into Haas CNC Racing and will drive
for that team with another driver -- Ryan Newman, according to sources, is all but a done deal -- next year. Stewart will unveil his new car with Office Depot as the primary sponsor at a news
conference in Indianapolis in two weeks, sources said. Logano, 18, said he will focus the rest of this season on his Nationwide Series ride and hope to get into a few Cup races before the end of
the year to prepare him for next season. ESPN.com 7-9-2008
