EQUAL TIME
Okay, about a week ago, I posted an entry about the beginning of the new NASCAR season where I made mention of Joe Nemechek and included a photo of the Army sponsored 01 car. Well, being a NAVY veteran, I should have known that some of my Navy pals would be standing by ready to give me unlimited amounts of grief....and they did! Shame on me! LOL
This photo is of the #14 Navy sponsored Dodge driven by David Stremme for Fitz-Bradshaw Racing in the Nascar Busch Series. This photo was taken mid-season last year. Since then David Stremme has moved on to the Nextel Cup Series driving the #40 car for Chip Gnassi Racing. Currently, the #14 car has no sponsor as the Navy has apparently opted for other marketing options, but has left open the possiblity of returning to Nascar at a later date and in a limited role. We'll keep our fingers crossed.

I have to admit, that though I am not fond of many sports...NASCAR does have a strange appeal to me, and it is not the car wrecks. It is amazing the percision these drivers have, moving so fast so close together.

Go Dodge. I'm a MOPAR guy and love to see the NAVY name on a Ram. (I guess Bill the Goat, the NAVAl Academy Mascot, could be a Ram?)

My dad is an old Navy guy as well. I'll have to point out the #14 car.
