Michigan "News" and Notes

A Day Early!

--LeBron James' hangers-on recently announced plans for a James-based special paint scheme on Bobby Labonte's car at Bristol. Because when you think of cutting-edge urban style, you think of a bright green Monte Carlo.

--Rumors have begun to surface about the casting for Will Ferrell's upcoming Nascar-themed movie. I'd put MY money on a cameo either by Jackie Stewart or Jackie Chan.

--John Andretti makes his, um, triumphant?...yeah, triumphant, I guess, return to Nextel Cup action this week.

--It was revealed on NBS 24/7 this week that Akins Motorsports driver Tyler Walker (Texas Ranger) missed the drivers meeting at Watkins Glen after being pulled over on his way in. Reportedly the infraction was a 1212--impersonating Ryan Newman's haircut.

--And finally, just be patient--the boring races are almost over with.

ODDS:
EVEN--You'll hear the term "Irish Hills of Michigan" at least 10 times.
3:1--You'll hear the term "D-shaped oval" at least 10 times.
50:1--You'll hear the term "minority driver" at least one time.
