Weather set the starting grid for the Fathers Day Lifelock 400 at Michigan International Speedway but it won’t have much to do with the finishing order.

Sunday is looking like a perfect Michigan summer day.  Happy Fathers Day to all you dads out there.  If you are reading this, chances are you plan to take in today’s Sprint Cup race from the Irish Hills.  Whether you’re watching on the tube, listening to the radio as you get the honey-do’s done or are at the track, enjoy the race.

Jamie McMurray’s  #26 will sport a special Fathers Day paint scheme - pictured here -  thanks to sponsor Crown Royal.  Here’s what Jamie had to say about what Fathers Day means to him.

“My dad has always played a huge part in my life and racing career, so to be able to say thanks to him on Father’s Day with Crown Royal is really special,” said McMurray. “Now if we can get the No. 26 to Victory Lane this weekend, I will be able to give both my dad and Crown Royal the perfect Father’s Day present.”

My own dad has been gone a long time but I think about him all the time.  I never know what will trigger those thoughts, but that #26 car will today, for sure.
