I just figured that was the name of the trophy, like the Grey Cup, the Stanley Cup, etc.

Oh, and speed week starts with the the Bud shoot on Feb 7. Unless you wanted to watch the Koni Challenge and Rolex 24 races

Add another change to remember: Craftsman Trucks are now Camping World Truck Series.
And I knew that too, just lost track...too much football or maybe too many Cup name changes. I too didn't associate Winston Cup with ciggarettes until I got older. Ah, innocence. Thanks for the info. guys.

Needless to say, I feel like crap right now. I tried to log on last night (cuz I am addicted to you people) and the hotel Internet was all f-ed up. Either that or I was too drunk to figure out some basic computing skills which is also highly possible. Now I have to go back to some more meetings and back to that Irish bar. Be prepared for some late night drunken messages from me later!
Oooh, meetings, so much fun. But at least you get to party afterward....at the company's expense? Knock 'em dead, Pete!
