Crazy times in Richmond

Michael Waltrip will miss Saturday's Cup race in Richmond. He and two other regulars, Travis Kvapil and Kyle Petty, needed to qualify on speed. Kvapil and Petty made it. Waltrip didn't.

One of the guys who beat out Waltrip: 85-year-old Morgan Shepherd.

Kasey Kahne, meanwhile, qualified 20th, but ahead of only two (Stewart, Earnhardt Jr.) of the 10 drivers ahead of him in the standings.

I see crazy times ahead.

I'm OK with Morgan Shepard in the race for a few laps as opposed to 3 hours of Mikey for the next 10 weeks. They're both field fillers and I think they may have the same amount of career wins.

Matt said:

When Mikey gets Ensure and Metamucil as sponsors, he should hire Morgan to drive the car.

Antonette said:

I am so excited about tonight's race! Last night's race was basically a demolition derby. Tonight should be rather interesting, I'd say.
