THE RACE IS ON

My Man PAUL TRACY won the provisional Vegas Pole. Which means...Paul Tracy took the first point of the season and he is starting in Number 1 position. WAY TO GO!!!



Tracy’s efforts secured him a front-row slot for Sunday’s race and put him, at least for the next 24 hours, as the Champ Car World Series points leader with one marker.






"I feel great," PT said. "We worked really hard over the winter. Kind of had to work extra hard this last week when the team decided to take on a second car. But the team has done a great job. Everybody's pitched in and done a great job. I can't be more happy for the team and for Gerry Forsythe and everybody, all my fans that are out here."





Race starts Easter Sunday @1:30 pm. Be there in front of your tv's cheering on our Canadian Boy.

UPDATE:
Paul finished in 3rd place. Some issues with the fuel. Hopefully the fueling issue will be resolved by next race. Next race is in Long Beach, April 15th.

HOPPY EASTER

Only 5 more sleeps until EASTER SUNDAY



Oops.........I started eating my bunny Monday. Oops I ate the whole up tonight. And to go with the chocolate bunny...........see below. Now I feel like a bunny, bouncing around from all the sugar I consumed.



Do I feel guilty? NOPE!! Where is why:

Chocolate is derived from cacao beans. Bean = vegetable. Sugar is derived from either sugar CANE or sugar BEETS. Both are plants, which places them in the vegetable category. Thus, chocolate is a vegetable.
To go one step further, chocolate candy bars also contain milk, which is dairy. So candy bars are a health food.
Chocolate-covered raisins, cherries, orange slices and strawberries all count as fruit, so eat as many as you want.
If you've got melted chocolate all over your hands, you're eating it too slowly.
The problem: How to get 2 pounds of chocolate home from the store in a hot car. The solution: Eat it in the parking lot.
Diet tip: Eat a chocolate bar before each meal. It'll take the edge off your appetite, and you'll eat less.
If calories are an issue, store your chocolate on top of the fridge. Calories are afraid of heights, and they will jump out of the chocolate to protect themselves. (We're testing this with other snack foods as well.)
If I eat equal amounts of dark chocolate and white chocolate, is that a balanced diet? Don't they actually counteract each other?
Chocolate has many preservatives. Preservatives make you look younger. Therefore, you need to eat more chocolate.
Put "eat chocolate" at the top of your list of things to do today.
