    Congratulations Boris!

    Glad to see Boris win today at Montreal in a very entertaining race. For those who didn't see he won in a photo finish over Max Papis. Marcos Ambrose and Carl Edwards dominated stretches of the race, but both had mechanical issues.

    Jacques Villeneuve was third and I thought he had a shot, but it wasn't to be.

    Good day for the ringers so to speak.

    It was a great race.

    It's a beautiful circuit. In a perfect world, I would love to see Cup add this track and Road America. 4 Road Tracks a year would be just about right in my book.

    I can't wait to see how Marcos Ambrose is going to lose next year.

    I've never been particularly impressed with Boris as a driver, but I do seriously respect his dedication. I think he's one of the guys in the garage that just gets in the car for genuine love of the sport. I doubt he's making a ton of money in these handful of starts per year. So I think it's great that he got a win in an upper-level NASCAR series.

    C'mon, no love for Robby? From starting dead last to leading the race on the final lap, only to lose in overtime?

    Boris was merely a top-5 who got lucky, because everybody ahead of him broke their cars or ran out of gas.

    So his win doesnt count? Isnt crossing the finish line at the END of the race part of the race itself? By your logic the guy on pole should just be declared the winner.

    a question:

    What reason does NASCAR give to not have this circuit to be part of the cup's NASCAR race schedule?
    Is it their limit of two road races per season only? (that would be my guess)


    a comment:

    It was great seeing JV race his heart off and show his talents in a Nascar race.
    It would be so cool if he got a permanent ride.
    Jack is a racer.
