Melissa,

I felt you might get a kick out of this little piece. It has an important message for everyone. Let me know what you think of it in the comments section.

Hey Melissa,

I just wrote an article about NASCAR's Harry Gant and his great performances as an older driver, let me know what you think.

yes, i heard the reference either right after the race or in the post-race shows. i used it in my facebook status for a while--"celebrating wins by the 'wild thing' on saturday and the 'mild thing' on sunday."

actually, i like both busch brothers as they were the hometown boys when i caught nascar fever back in 2003 or so, the year kyle started. as for the snow angels, if i remember correctly, kyle was throwing snowballs before the race, and kurt was making the snow angels after winning the race.

thanks for the comment on my comment.

Melissa,

OK, so I'm the new Community Leader for the Nationwide Series — the newest community here on B/R... and I'd like to formally invite you to join the community and help me make it grow.

http://bleacherreport.com/nationwide-series

Whether you want to write, comment or do both, I'd like to have you as a member of the community to give the series some well deserved attention.

This season looks to be another wild one as several Cup regulars crash the part while the likes of Brad Keselowski and Jason Keller try and keep the big boys from bullying them.

So come join me in the Nationwide Series Community — and don't forget to tag any Nationwide Stories with the appropriate tag now!
