Rockingham vs California
After watching last week's Auto Club 500 at California, many NASCAR fans were reminded just how much they really miss the races held at the North Carolina Motor Speedway in Rockingham, North Carolina. Unfortunately, Rockingham no longer holds a place in today's NASCAR.

Year Of The Veterans?
In a world in which drivers in their twenties and early thirties dominate the NASCAR scene, forty-seven year-old Mark Martin has been the outsider over the last couple of years. Martin is the lone driver in his fabulous forties to compete in NASCAR’s playoff-style ‘Chase For The Championship’ in both 2004 and 2005. Rusty Wallace qualified in 2005, but never won a race. Since 2004, forty-something drivers have combined for a total of four wins, with Martin claiming half of them. Only Dale Jarrett and Rusty Wallace have been able to win at least one race in that time span.

Roush's Reign Continues
Roush Racing dominated NASCAR in 2005 and it looks as if they'll do an encore in 2006. It was evident at California as the five-team operation spent most of the day among the top seven or eight. Greg Biffle was the man to beat but a blown engine spoiled his day. Tony Stewart seemed to be the only non-Roush Racing driver who may have had a shot to win, but like Biffle, his day ended due to an engine failure.

Broad Leafed Evergreens - Kalmia
Kalmia, or Mountain Laurel, is one plant whose buds are just as neat and lovely as the open flowers. Sometimes the buds are a completely different color from the open flower, and since the flowers don’t open all at one time, the effect can be very lively. It is one of the most beautiful of native U.S. shrubs in flower.
