Quote/Motto: "Every one of these drivers in the garage area, I can speak to because they all speak English, with the exception of Ward Burton. He speaks whatever he speaks. He speaks Ward." -- Tony Stewart
Favorite Driver: Kyle Busch
Who Am I:
Originally from the Washington DC area, my husband and I moved to New York City to pursue the American dream of living in a breadbox-sized apartment. Maybe subconsciously trying to compensate for the move North, I found myself delving deeper into my two passions of NASCAR and Civil War History. I now write a weekly (well I try to be weekly) NASCAR article and listen daily to the Rowdy Podcast.
Favorite Track:
Dover International Speedway
How I discovered Rowdy, and why I Listen:
I found Rowdy on ITunes and never looked back. One Rowdy a day keeps the Jayski away. It's all I need.
Why I'm a race fan:
For spite.
Favorite Music:
Old-school country, a little punk, new wave, glam, hip-hop, and a teeny weeny bit of hard core.
Favorite Movies:
My favorites tend to be documentaries. The last excellent movie I watched was After Innocence.
Favorite Books:
I can't remember the last non-history book I read, but I probably didn't like it.
Vices:
Gosh, it would have to be Rowdy.com. I spend WAY too much time here.
Heroes:
Marilyn Waring: a member of New Zealand parliament in the 80s. Her views on social economics changed my life.
As always, Rowdy broke the news story. Yes, SMS is working on an entry for 2008.
We're looking at a few different drivers. Unfortunately, the loss of Dale Jr. to Hendrick set us back a year. But we've been speaking with a number of drivers and we're very proud of our lineup. Kerry has already signed on to drive 10 Cup races and we're close to inking the deal with Ward Burton as well.
As for sponsorship, the Black Sheep Pub has agreed to provide free hamburgers and sodas to our crew. Other than that, I really can't divulge any more information at this time.
Perhaps Racer 187 could drive backup for Kerry if she needs some time off. And I'm really good at making reservations and other arrangements. I've no doubt your organization can win several races this year! Best of luck and see you at the Waldof come December ; )
Ward is said to be negotiating to have Sadie herself be not only his crew chief but his in car co-pilot like they do at Rally races.
The only possible way Ward could see more unintelligible is if you were listening to him speak whilst driving. I can't imagine what his radio sounds like :)
(I would love to have him as a teammate though!)
I'll be the team cook for the times that we are too far from Black Sheep Pub. Pete will be that guy that cleans debris off the front of the car. Andy will create LEGO versions of everyone and make a movie to promote the team.
Absolutely! Everybody will have a job. Lauren was working on the employee list a few months ago. Maybe when she has time on her hands, she can dust off the old roster.
(Now I'm the one signing people up for blogs they didn't know they had to write).
OK, can I still be on the team? And is Charmin still a sponsor?
Reporting for duty, Seniorita Sadie!
