DOVER - weirdest race name ever

Betting window is open for the Autism Speaks 400, presented by Heluva Good! Sour Cream Dips & Cheese.

HA!

CHARLOTTE RESULTS

My thoughts during the rain delay:

1) David Reutimann looks like Ray Romano.

2) My neighbors are smoking pot again. Maybe Jeremy Mayfield is over for a memorial day picnic.

3) David Gilliland...where have they been hiding you?! You are CUTE!!! I have to admit that until this rain delay, I thought you and David Reutimann were the same person. But now I will watch you -- driver crush of the week!!

4) DW's hair is getting REALLY poofy. Jamie McMurray needs to take him to the salon.

5) WTF?! They called Daytona over for rain in like 5 minutes. This was the longest....rain...delay...make that multiple delays....EVER!

And with that, our results....

Me - 8.4
Ali - 9.6
John -14.6
Melody - 15.6
Erik - 17.2
Chip - 17.6

Chip - Junior screwed you, man. And who made me victorious? None other than my hottie Kasey Kahne and he-of-little-neck Ryan Newman! I guess it pays to pick the weird drivers sometimes.

Next up....Dover, Delaware.

CUMULATIVE RESULTS

Well isn't this just a Mother's Day miracle?!:

JC -- 12.42
Erik -- 13.45
Ali -- 13.8
John -- 14.82
Melody -- 15.15
Chip -- 15.82

Close race!!

DARLINGTON RESULTS

Well, Johnny, picking the old man didn't help you at all, so you can still hit Chip. Go for it. Kyle Busch pretty much screwed everyone this week. And sadly, my three week winning streak has come to an end. I love night races though because DW gets drunk as the evening wears on. By the end of the race, I'm always all, "What did he just say?!" LOL! Anyway....Congrats Ali!!

Results, followed by discussion of the week's big news:

Ali -- 9.4
JC -- 12.6
Chip -- 13.2
John -- 15.4
Erik -- 17.2
Melody -- 18.4

In case anyone missed it, Jeremy Mayfield has been indefinitely suspended for drug use:

To take a page from Perez Hilton:

He says it was prescription drugs, but they have to be able to eliminate those, right? I mean, why even test for those? Does anyone know what they test for? It has to just be street drugs, right? Cocaine, heroin, meth.... Interesting. I never would have guessed Jeremy Mayfield would be busted!! I mean, the Busch brothers, definitely. Truex Jr -- totally. Montoya -- drives like he's drugged every week. But Mayfield seemed squeeky clean! Feel free to discuss...

Driver Crush Of The Week: Ryan Newman for putting both of Tony's teams in the top 5!

Next up...All Star Race!!

DARLINGTON - The Lady In Black

Picking window is open. Chip - I recommend not re-picking. LOL! :)

RICHMOND RESULTS

In which Jimmie Johnson screws pretty much everyone...

JC -- 5.6
Melody -- 11.2
Erik -- 11.8
John -- 15.6
Ali -- 17
Chip -- 17.8

Melody and JC were the only two who didn't pick Jimmie, and look where it got us! Also, interestingly, only three people picked Jeff Gordon this week, and he did well.

Picking Jr. for the first time hurts Ali more than helps. And Chip proves that his hate for Kyle does not mean he shouldn't pick him.

Driver crush of the week: Tony Stewart for finishing second and looking adorable doing it.

Next up: Darlington
