Mark Green? Huh? oh wait, I get it.

Larry was too busy lining up hotties down at the truck stop to qual, right?

(Being the most eligable batchelor in NC and all. ;) )

It's just Foyt Racing at it's best and another wanker behind the wheel.

Here is a quote from AJ-4's website. Pretty much sums it all up . . .

Goals for the race: My goal for the last race is to do what we haven't done all season, run and finish in the top 10. Texas isn't a hard track, and there's not much I can do other than hold it to the floor, hold it on the white line and turn left. . . .

Does Foyt's NASCAR team even bother booking hotel rooms for Friday and Saturday night anymore?

After practice at TMS AJFore! is 16th faster than IRL notables Hearn, Buhl, Sharp, Yesisucka, DNFisher -- and DFL is Widdle Al.

I don't think 4 is getting any better...

I can see the sponsorship possibilities for Foyt Racing now...

He's not getting better: the others are just getting worse- or AJ's rat ears scared them into giving up places.

Must be pretty hard for the Foyt gene pool. AJFore! qualifies 19th, 5+ mph slower than the polesitter. Meanwhile, IPS superstar Mr. Ed winds up DFL.


From the Dallas Morning News:

"When Roger sees something good, he goes after it and buys it," Foyt said. "I've beaten Penske and Chip Ganassi as much as they've beaten me. But the biggest thing right now is they are spending three times as much money as we are."


When did AJ ever win a race with Penske or Ganassi entries in the field in CART or the IRL?

20+ years of futility must induce senility.

Looks like AJ4 has a lock on DFL. "Engine" woes have him in the pits.

Mr. Ed is runner up for DFL, also in the pits with electrical problems.
