I've attended the Las Vegas NASCAR weekend for the last four years prior to last weekend's event. However, it just so happens that a great ending--to a usually crappy race--had to take place when I didn't attend.

Oh well. I'll probably renew my patronage when the track is re-configured by next year.

With that aside, I'll probably get my picks in time for Atlanta.
