Season pretty much over in Iowa, but there’s some drama in NASCAR | Des Moines Register Staff Blogs

Good job Chris, as usual. For the record, I watched the Watkins Glen race, and it was a great race.

I love the blog Chris.

Lot's of good stuff going on in the racing world. I look forward to the road courses and last week didn't disappoint. Canada, even though it's Nationwide has tons of storylines, including Robby Gordon's return from last years mess. The one that may get swept up and not talked about is Patrick Carpentier annoucing that this will be his last race. I don't think we got to see his talent fully develop in stock cars, but it was fun to watch him, especially qualify underfunded cars.

One more thing Michigan is where I attended my first NASCAR race back in 1993, but its got to be one of the longest and most boring races on the circuit.
