Well sorry i haven't posted in a while (slacker lol). But today's post will include sad breaking news.
I just finished talking to Aaron, he told me that he has officially retired from baba racing. This is because of his complaining when he losses all the time. The is very sad and the NBRA will never be the same without him. In his final cup race he ended on a sour note, he d.n.fed after being flagged out. His final X Energy Cup record will be: 9 wins, many poles, one Bop World 600 and Champions 400 each, and his best points finish was second (2008). Thank you Aaron for all that you've done for this sport and hope you like it better as an official. Wow i think tears are coming to my eyes thinking that Aaron is done racing. :(
But as the title of this post states another career will begin in this weekend's Green Grass 400! That's right #9 Beau Brazfield will make his first ever NBRA start in the 400. Beau will be racing for JVJ Racing and will be taking Aaron's old place. I spoke with my new teammate yesterday and he said that he doesn't plan on winning the race or even performing well, but getting experience for the races to come. I hope beau will do well this weekend and the rest of this year, plus Caleb Garrett may make his debut soon I'm hearing. So make sure to come to the Green Grass 400 on Saturday at 11:30 to see Beau's debut and the third X Energy Cup race of the 2010 season.
Well thanks for reading, and i know that it's very sad that Aaron is done but new careers are starting and baa racing is having a new generation of racers. As always post your comments and i'll see you next week.

The Shootout, The Rookies, and This Weekend
Well here i am again, sorry i didn't post last week, and because of that today's post will be three in one (as you can tell by the title).
Anyways, the X Energy Shootout was held on Saturday night in case you didn't get the memo. And the race was boring (in case you didn't get that memo too) and i won and led every lap! OK got that cleared lol.
OK now about the rookies, for this 2010 season which officially starts with Saturday's Backyard 300 Bop World Series Race, we have ten licensed racers. And out of those ten 6 are rookies! And here they are:
#5 Caleb Garrett (TBA)
#7 Brandon Lopez (TBA)
#9 Beau Brazfields (JVJ Racing/BWS)
#12 Josh Triebel (TBA)
#13 Scott Oster (Wrigley Racing/TBA)
#56 Issiah Jarmillio (TBA)
Well as you can see only two are even on a team. And i'm pretty sure that the other four won't even make a race. Anyways to make a prediction for the Frank's Beef Franks Rookie of the Year: it will go to Scott (aka my dad). He's been racing for years and will try to run a few races this year. And he has been improving much. But will either rookie win a race? Well not to be mean or anything but i highly doubt that either will take the checkers in '10.
OK for the final part! Well I'm incredibly stoked for this weekend. First tomorrow are the qualifying duels (Which won't be rained out!) The duels will determine the feidl for Sunday's "500" because qualifying was rained out last Sunday. Then on saturday is the first ever Bop World Series race which i'm stoked for. And then Sunday: The 2010 Backyard 500! We've been waiting a year for our "super bowl", and it's finally here. But there's a 60% chance of rain, which may ruin the "500", so be sure to pray for that.
Well that's it next week will be part 5 of my series on the "500" (if it doesn't get rained out). So see you next week.
