During qualifying Punch made some comments about how running the Busch Series lately has been helping A.J. Allmendinger. No follow-up talking about the fact that he was also running the truck series this week and his laps in that truck right before qualifying might have helped him make the show. They also made some comment about J.J. Yeley running in "every series that is here this weekend", I think they mentioned Cup, midget cars, and modifieds? He certainly wasn't running the truck race but to ESPN that series doesn't exist and was nowhere near New Hampshire this weekend.<BR/><BR/>Great job by the Speed guys and gal.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-69231539797597527112007-09-15T21:27:00.000-04:002007-09-15T21:27:00.000-04:00I just wanted to say I also think SPEED does an OU...I just wanted to say I also think SPEED does an OUTSTANDING JOB..when they are showing a race and a wreck in TURN TWO HAPPENS, the announcers say it in an excited voice..and one today was immediately followed by BIG CRASH..and within a couple seconds, they know who it is!!<BR/><BR/>I enjoy Waltrip though I know not all do but I would pick him anyday over the dunces in their monotonous drones at ESPN.<BR/><BR/>Oh, I did not have the computer in the tv room on during the race and like Bevo mentioned...I was busy ENJOYING THE RACE as they were not clogging up the race with STUPID GRAHPICS of draft TRACKER or premade videos.<BR/><BR/>On SPEED truck series, it's about the races! Oh, and they do not quickly throw out the caution like they do in Cup either.Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789033556426951026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-41939282030273386922007-09-15T21:04:00.000-04:002007-09-15T21:04:00.000-04:00The reason I haven't commented on the Speed covera...The reason I haven't commented on the Speed coverage? Because they do a great job. Good camera work, a director who knows when to switch to the proper camera, no gimmicks meant to impress other tv people, full field rundowns, informative pit reporters, great play-by-play and color (except for Waltrip) and a host who knows what she's talking about.<BR/><BR/>Imagine that! Qualified people commenting and producing a race with no goofy stuff thrown in (except for Waltrip). Not so difficult is it?bevohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186936436307739896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-34243410646878239152007-09-15T20:37:00.001-04:002007-09-15T20:37:00.001-04:00jfs-va You have a point.

The leading part... not so much. Unless he was talking about the 1 lap Reutimann led at California during green flag pit stops, LOL.stricklinfan82https://www.blogger.com/profile/01808897974344304657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-70202606449916631822007-09-15T15:49:00.000-04:002007-09-15T15:49:00.000-04:00I caught this race late.
