Shop Floor Jeopardy

I'll take Dish or Dirt for six-hundred Alex.
The answer is Chili Bowl.

What is...the coolest race of the year?
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!

Here's a brief blurb from USA Today:Tony Stewart returns to Daytona International Speedway next week for his first Daytona 500 test in four years, but the two-time NASCAR Cup champion currently calls Tulsa home.

Stewart has been there since Tuesday preparing for the Chili Bowl Nationals, and J.J. Yeley says the extra time will help Stewart throw some weight around as defending champion of the premier midget race."Well, that's if they got him to fit in the car," Yeley said with a mischievous chuckle. "Winters generally aren't very good for Tony, and these are small cars."

A record total of 274 competitors have duked it out over the course of 76 races entailing 776 laps of spine tingling action since Tuesday night to set the lineups for Saturday's 21 feature events.

Sure, the Nascar names are the "racers to watch" but don't be surprised if a real dirt track star comes out of the pack to take the win. And it's all on Pay-Per-View this year.

Ran the Pay-Per-View this year. Watched a lot of racing. Like they kept saying, it doesn't get any better than this. Looked like the crowd was made of non-racers to me but maybe I'm wrong. Blow up dolls might be the thing to bring to the track from now on?
