Carl_aflacGreat perspective on the Bristol race. Always appreciate your "sayin' like it is"!

466575225_414efe81a3_mHey Rick! I enjoyed listening to you talk about pit strategy with the Rowdy Boys. Stuff like that is so cool for a NASCAR fan like me, coming from a NASCAR driver like you. Keep up the great work Rick, I'll keep listening!

Rrmhey buddie how have u been i always enjoy your stories and insite on the rowdy podcast

Dsc00469Rick Do you remember any of the old Keokuk, Iowa drivers like Ramo Stott, Ernie Derr, The Huthenson brothers, Don White, Blankenships ? Rick Lorenz

Chief187Why aren't you playing Driver Zone? I figure you could be the winner each segment!

Mini_mei was blinded by the sun!

Sq_columbineEnjoyed watching you race and now am enjoying listening to your insights on the podcast. What's the deal ? Ken Schrader is fav and yet gets no Christmas card. ? We've had the pleasure of watching him race on dirt tracks here in Wisconsin. And he's a favorite here also.

Chief187It's funny, when Racer 187 and I started watching Cup racing, you were there. Now when I see your face and hear your voice on the podcast I feel as if I've known you for nearly 20 years! You too?

Family_potraeteya hoo hill people!

Chief187Hi Rick, I posted a blog about Rivalries, any input? Hope you are well : )

Dean_madYOU ARE THE LIGHT i am a mere mortal!

ProfileWishing you a Merry Christmas and a ROWDY New Year!!!

JbRick, Have a great Christmas and I wanted to let you know I really enjoy your contribution to the show. You really give us the inside scoop on what its like to be a driver...what I'm sure most of us would wish to be, at least for a day!!

Sweet_victory_2Did you really hang up on Richard Childress to take a call from Bass? Did you tell him why you had to go?

P1011474bRick, Happy Thanksgiving! Hope you're having a great one.

Me_and_3Happy Thanksgiving, Rick! I love hearing your segments of the podcasts.

Racer187_pocono08Happy TG!

ProfileHey Mr. Mast, Just thought I'd stop by and say hope you have a great thanksgiving.

Dancechrisfarley What am I going to do for the next 3 months???

Kits-rick_mastGreat to hear you on a regular basis Rick! Hope you don't mind my Avatar!

ProfileYou Rock>>Therefore You Rowdy!!!

Img_5012Well...close enough ain't good unless you're throwin' horseshoes or hand grenades. Aw hell...my boy done good...he raced his heart out. I can't ask for more than that.

Carl_aflacGreat article on Nascar.com! Good to see you get some love ... :)

Img_5012Ahhh...a sideways slide coming off Turn 4 on the last lap at Rockingham...second only to Earnhardt...what could be better! You done good, Rick Mast.

Carl_aflacI was reading the "Rowdy as a Sitcom" forum and giggling a little until I hit your "Lost in Space" comment and guffawed! Yes ... an outright guffaw!

Sweet_victory_2Is there any chance I can convince you to make the drive to Charlottesville this weekend? Lauren, Kerry, Jana, and I will all be in town and it would be a HUGE thrill to meet you. HUGE!

Avatar11_150Heading to Lexington, VA this weekend and will make sure to slow down and honk as I head out to Goshen

11_gThanks for the add...

Hope you're doing well.

Give me a shout.

Have a good one.

Racer187_pocono08Hi.

Img_5012Matt Kenseth at Bristol -- "All I can taste is exhaust, I'm going to throw up in a minute." Wow - he was really sick from all the exhaust! Carbon monoxide, I assume? That was one crappy weekend for the 17. I hope he's ok.

LaOk, Rick I have a Toyota/JGR question. If they do switch manufacturers, do you think there is any chance Tony will leave? He has said some not nice things about Toyota entering the sport in the past. Or do you think he'll suck it up? He has so many ties to Chevy though...

Sweet_victory_2We were worried that you didn't make the trip to 2.0. Reinventing the wheel isn't the worst thing... as long as you make it faster.

Img_5012"Hi."

Carl_aflacJust checkin' in to make sure the new site didn't erase you! Hope you're having a good summer! Did you slaughter that 8 cow yet? LOL!

ProfileGood to see the Man, the Myth...the guy with a really cool helmet has own page up Way to Elmers

Profile_5Rick is in the house

Carl_aflacGreat picture Glad to have you just hang out with us

ProfileIt just wasn't Rowdy.com without Rick. Now the man in in the house

ProfileWhoa. The Rowdy Nation pouring the love all over the Rickster.

ProfileRick, we know that Buck and Bass are full of opinions and what you think of them. When you have the time, if you could wander around to some of our blogs and tell us what you think of what we have to say, it would be greatly appreciated. Good, bad, or indifferent, we would like to hear your critiques of the Rowdy Nation.

ProfileRick - I'm so thankful that you're on the show each week to set the record straight for Buck and Bass

Ferrari_mikeHey Rick, As a life long F1 fan, I only started watching NASCAR in 2002. Your interviews on Rowdy have really helped me understand the sport and the history of NASCAR. Thanks. Mike in Toronto, Canada

Alicia_katie_joeRick Mast What an honor. I am VERY pleased to see you have a page. Not to sound like Jeff Gordon, but this is going to be awesome I am excited about this. By the way I like how you called your self the glue that holds Rowdy together

ProfileAwesome. Glad you're here to give us the real deal on what a driver is thinkin Of course there are some that just don't. I always enjoy your segments in the show. Keep up the outstanding work.

It's not the same from the old MASTFAN days.. but still close.. will you be anywhere near bristol?? next week?? Glad to see you back Lstewy

Bristol_headWow...is it really The Rick Mast What an honour. (Canadian spelling) I do appreciate the insight and expertise that you put in the rowdy podcast.

Profile_5Hey Glue, call me. I need to put you on the show tomorrow

Bristol_stageRick - you're cows rock. You should be very, very proud.I think I feel a new photoshop project brewing...

R2Sweet, Me and Jeff were schooled by pretty much the same veteran drivers coming through the ranks years ago. Cheap shots and whinning about things were not tolerated. If you did not understand then things would happen that made your head hurt. (I mean your head would actually hurt) It was really a very simple process. Rick

R2Lauren, Everybody always wanted to know the name of the cow I sold for my first race car. The truth is after midnight her name became Baaaaaby.

GijoeGlad to hear from you, Rick. It really helps to have a driver tell us what the heck is really going on sometimes because it's easy for u s, on the outsode looking in, to make some rash assumptions that could be way off the mark. Looking forward to more.

100_0768Buck was saying on the podcast how you zip through the curves on the roads around your farm. I was thinking about that when driving up the curvey mountain road today to Boone. I decided not to zip, as a mistake would have been worse than ending up in a field.

Carl_aflacJust saw the video of your trophy room, thanks for letting us in. :) My favorite part though is when you smacked Buck upside the head LOL

P1011474bRick, we are all so glad that you're a part of Rowdy I love the unique perspective that you provide. Thank you.

LaHi Rick Your comment is hands down my favorite I am very superstitious but real estate is tough in NYC. I don't think I'll be able to actually cheer for the 24- but I'll try to be more open. For the record I have always hated $50, I was clearly meant to be a fan... Have a great Holiday weekend and thank you for your comment

Carl_aflacI wanted to ask, are you going to have to slaughter the 8 cow now? LOL

ProfileWhat? are you talking about the time the King wrecked you in turn 2 and you woke up in turn 4 at Bristol? Am I right?

354035553_mspeaking of bristol, what do you think about them paving it, good or bad move? personally i think darlington will end up being a mistake who knows maybe itll go back to the early days where people ran the apron and the banking now that would be some good old school racing...

R2Ah yea, I forgot.

Racer187_pocono08Hey Rick. Come on over to Greg's blog and give us some insight on inspection, please. We're a little unsure of the process. www.rowdy.com/gregmcc/blo...

ProfileHey Rick, When you get a chance could you give us some input on exactly what went on with Jimmie Johnson and Jeff Gordons cars and if you feel that NASCAR was right with the fines. Also, does it make sense to you that two of Hendricks cars passed the inspection and two did not? or is that a common thing when you basically have two shops owned by the same owner? Thanks for your help.

Bristol_stageRick, Kerry, Sadie and I are planning a trip down to C-Ville sometime in the upcoming months and we're going to try and get Buck, Bass, Cutler and Rusty together for some Rowdiness. Would love if you could join us. Keep it in the back of your mind and I'll let you know when we finalize the date. It would be a treat to meet you.Keep up the great work on Rowdy. I always enjoy your segments.

Bristol_stageHi Rick, So Sadie, Kerry and I will be in C-Ville the weekend of October 13-14th. Rumor has it we will be watching the race at Buck's house. Do you think you can come? Let me know. We'll bring you goodies from NYC. Hope you can make it.

GijoeJust wondered your thoughts about NASCAR having a dedicated safety crew that went from track to track, instead of using the local Fire/EMS
