I wish there was more coverage of this and maybe the next few trips could have a support vehicle and a camera for more coverage.I hope FOX watches this carefully as TNT has really done their homework as to what fans really want.The Waltrip brothers constant spewing and poor attempts at humor are not fun, obviously TNT knows FUN and DRAMA.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-79520544923841204252009-06-11T15:59:39.398-04:002009-06-11T15:59:39.398-04:00I am glad to also see fun coming back into NASCAR....I am glad to also see fun coming back into NASCAR.

I have been a fan for 40 years (I'm 43, so what does that tell you), and each day that draws closer to the race, I get excited! God Bless Kyle Petty, and kudos to Rutt for going the distance. On a side note, it's too bad Kyle doesn't work with his dad behind the scenes, and purchase outright Petty Enterprises. I'd hate to think that dinner with the folks is a bummer experience. <br />And NASCAR? Please allow TNT to cover the rest of the year when ESPN calls in sick on their coverage.

If there isn't, who is taking video of them driving down the road or Rut getting into his rain gear under an overpass on the way to Pocono? I'm sure that most of the ride is solo, but someone has to be there to take video.<br /><br />I am enjoying following their trips. Thanks to Kyle and Rutledge for twittering their adventures. I'm bummed that they won't be passing through my way on any of the trips.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01267619471659546233noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-35769773045526000382009-06-10T22:38:36.035-04:002009-06-10T22:38:36.035-04:00Yeah I really like this.

They're truly partners in covering NASCAR, even if TNT is just there for a short period of the year and is part of a completely different corporation. I wish there could be this level of cooperation between ESPN and SPEED.SonicADhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06647057393154203533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-42879020060771741292009-06-10T22:27:20.830-04:002009-06-10T22:27:20.830-04:00I have tweeted Rut twice now to stop in my work to...I have tweeted Rut twice now to stop in my work town to have lunch!<br />Hope they do..it would make my day!!!PammHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05300459856268781781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-49295477932326563952009-06-10T21:53:18.577-04:002009-06-10T21:53:18.577-04:00Just one thing...there is no car.

Anyone who has ever ridden in one of these things knows how excruciating it can be to ride one for any serious length of time. I can see why they picked it -- it makes for a great visual, plus the sidecar has a sort-of goofy image that plays in with Rutledge's normal clown routine. But whoever planned this has obviously never ridden in one, because Rutledge is going to experience numbness, back pain, and leg cramping unlike anything he has ever experienced. I really wonder if after a few weeks he'll just jump in the car for the b-roll shots. I gotta give him an A for effort if he really sticks with it.
