			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Tony Stewart might be one of the most talked about drivers of the year.  He started the season with speculation that he would only be middle of the pack, but he&#8217;s surpassed everyones doubts and has done something not many drivers could have imagined.  He&#8217;s created a winning team straight out the box&#8230; yes it was an existing team, but he took it from zero to hero. </p>
<p>Tony Stewart is going to dominate at Indinapolis this year and drive around Dale Earnhardt Jr as if he was tied to Terry Labontes car.  Oucchhhhhhh&#8230; sad but true! My boy Tony fell asleep last year but he&#8217;s wide awake now, trying to make up for lost time.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not going to brown nose too much on my boy Tony&#8230; because I have a feeling the boy is starting to take a turn in his &#8220;social life.&#8221;  I&#8217;ve noticed he&#8217;s somewhat lost his badboy attitude, and he&#8217;s starting to pick up some of Jeff Gordon&#8217;s bad habbits.  Now I&#8217;m only speculating this, but I have a feeling the man is starting to drink white wine.  Who drinks white wine  other than sissy boys?  Is it because he&#8217;s a team owner and he&#8217;s just trying to follow a trend?</p>

<p align="center"><em>This is how a real man drinks wine!</em></p>
<p>Anyway&#8230; Tony Stewart is going to dominate this weekend in Indy.  Take your picks my fellow Ron Ripplers&#8230; whoever makes the right pick this weekend will get a Ron Ripple gift certificate to 7-11&#8230; and there will be enough money on it to buy a 12 pack of Budweiser.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s nothing like talking about myself in third person&#8230; it almost makes me feel like a big shot.  So where did Ron Ripple go?</p>
<p>I COULD make up this elaborate story about how I was in Dubai working for a new race team. I could also tell you how the team was planning to debut in the NASCAR world and that I (Ron Ripple) was their new driver&#8230; but then I&#8217;d be lying.  So to tell you the truth, I&#8217;ve been sitting on my big leather couch drinking case after case of budweiser. I&#8217;ve been drinking with my buds EVERY Saturday and Sunday watching the biggest baddest sport on earth, NASCAR. I know everyone is sick of hearing about the economy but because of it, I couldn&#8217;t make it to one race this season. I decided to save my money (unfortunately). But Good News for my fellow Ron Ripplers!!! I hit 5 or 6 numbers in powerball (kidding) and I&#8217;m BACK in action. I&#8217;ll be attending the rest of the races and reporting right here at www.RonRipple.com!</p>
<p>If anyone else wants to complain about the economy, HAVE AT IT! Because you won&#8217;t hear another peep about it after this post. From now on&#8230; the only thing you&#8217;ll be reading will be pure &#8220;NASCAR&#8217;s #1 Fan&#8221; opinion and of course&#8230; the hot wives and women of NASCAR.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to post a few pictures of some of the recent e-mail I&#8217;ve received from these infamous NASCAR Girls of the Week!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Bristol is the next race, a place that separates the boys from the men, a place built for speed, and a place known for having over 130,000 people fired up in the Grand Stands cheering for their favorite driver.  Who&#8217;s going to be the driver to take home this year&#8217;s first race at Bristol?  Get your wallets out boys because we&#8217;re taking bets.</p>
<p>As you all know&#8230; they don&#8217;t call me Ron Ripple - Nascar&#8217;s Biggest Fan for nothing.  I&#8217;m the kind of fan that every driver dreams of, I&#8217;m the kind of fan that every driver prays for.  I wouldn&#8217;t say that I can technically help a driver win a race, but I can basically help a driver win a race.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m known around the pits as being somewhat of a &#8220;sh!t talker,&#8221; so If you&#8217;re on my bad side, I&#8217;ve been known to &#8220;get in your head.&#8221;  Last year when the Race for the Chase started, I just so happened to be hovering around Kyle Busch&#8217;s camp for the first 4 races in the chase.  You tell me if I got in his head or not, he went from being first, to being last!</p>
<p>So who am I picking to win the first race at Bristol this year?  CARL EDWARDS.  I repeat&#8230; CARLLL EDWARRDDSS.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img border="0" src="/wp-admin/images/carledwards.jpg" height="190" width="379" /></p>
<p>Carl Edwars is my pick for Bristol.  He won the last race there in August of &#8216;08 and he&#8217;s going to win there again on March 22nd of &#8216;09.   He&#8217;s started this season out showing he&#8217;s going to be a front runner, and I have all the confidence in the world for him.</p>
<p>Who&#8217;s head am I going to get in this coming weekend?  Mark my words&#8230; When the haulers start rolling in and get set up, I&#8217;m going to be all over Kurt Busch like white on rice.  He might as well kiss his chances of winning Bristol good bye.</p>
<p>So all my fellow NASCAR Fans&#8230; who are you picking to win at Bristol?  And who do you want to be in the back of the pack?<font color="#ff0000"><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kyle Busch who ended his day at the Daytona 500 mixed up in a crash, that would take his chances of winning away, dominated the race by leading 76 out of 124 laps.  It was an unfortunate day for Kyle Busch but a very fortunate day for Mr. Matthew Kenseth, who went on to win the race after officials called the race due to rain.</p>
<p>Kyle Busch who was last years wonder boy at the beginning of the season looked like he was going to do it once again.  He was driving around these guys as if they were glued to the cement.  His pit crew changed tires quicker than I can shotgun a beer.  (I&#8217;m South Carolina&#8217;s #1 Beer Shotgunner)  Kyle Busch was running a phenomenal race until Dale Earnhardt Jr. decided he wasn&#8217;t very happy being a lap down.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the story, if you didn&#8217;t get a chance to watch the race.  Brian Vickers and Dale Earnhardt Jr. were racing for the &#8220;lucky dog&#8221; position at the front of the pack.  Brian Vickers was in front of Earnhardt Jr who went down on the low side to try and pass him.  Brian Vickers went down to the yellow line to block him which pushed Earnhardt Jr. out, and then Earnhardt intentionally came up and tapped Vickers on the left rear corner which caused him to spin out and take out half the pack.</p>
<p>Click on the video below if you want to see.</p>

<p>If you watched the post race interviews you&#8217;ll wonder what was wrong with Kyle Busch, and I think I have the answer.  Kyle Busch for some odd reason was extremely nice and didn&#8217;t have that negative whiny tone he usually portrays when he gets wrecked or doesn&#8217;t win.  </p>
<p>My speculation is that he either got &#8220;neutered&#8221; (my dog relaxed after I get him neutered) or he had a hot date after the race.  Hopefully it was the hot date because if I continue to see Kyle Busch be that respectful and nice after a race I may stop writing about him.</p>
<p>Overall I thought the Daytona 500 was a fun race to watch given the circumstances we were dealt.  The whole race everyone was worried about the rain so it made the drivers drive a little bit more aggressively.  Unfortunately none of the big names finished in the top 10 due to the wreck but we&#8217;ve got plenty more races for these guys to show us what they&#8217;ve got.</p>

<p align="left"> This my friends is the beautiful Jennifer Myers.   I met this young lady surprisingly not at a NASCAR race in Tallahassee, FL where I was for a Florida State Football game.  So After the game I went to the Hooters off of Monroe Street and ran into this beautiful girl who claimed she was NASCAR&#8217;s biggest fan at FSU.  Of course I didn&#8217;t believe her so I started quizing her on Driver&#8217;s name and car numbers and she got 9 out of 10 which was extremely impressive. From that point on I knew it was love at second site, but here&#8217;s some more information about her.  Make sure you go visit her at Model Mayhem and Myspace.</p>
<p><strong>Name:</strong>  Jennifer L. Myers</p>
<p><strong>Age:</strong>  21</p>
<p><strong>School or Occupation:</strong> FSU; Hooters Girl at Hooters of Tallahassee!</p>
<p><strong>Hometown:</strong> Boynton Beach, FL</p>
<p><strong>Favorite NASCAR racer:</strong> Kasey Kahne of course!</p>
<p><strong>What’s your favorite track?</strong> Daytona</p>
<p><strong>What’s your favorite part about NASCAR?</strong> I know that most people might say the crashes are the best but not in my case! My favorite part is when the cars are coming around the bend and it sounds like the most ridiculous swarm of bees and in an instant they are gone and your looking at the backs of their cars, I get the chills EVERY time!</p>
<p><strong>What’s the fastest you’ve ever been in a car?</strong> I would have to say about 110 or so, I was losing my mind!</p>
<p><strong>What are your hobbies?</strong> Anything outdoors! Softball, soccer, volleyball, fishing, hiking, camping, boating, surfing; Pretty much anything that I can get dirty doing!</p>
<p><strong>Favorite Drink:</strong> Whiskey &amp; Coke; is there anything else?!</p>
<p><strong>What is the worst pick up line a guy has ever used on you?</strong>  “So what would it take for me to get you home with me in this TO-GO box?”</p>
<p><strong>What do you look for in a guy?</strong> Nice teeth and the ability to make me laugh within 5 minutes of talking to you =D</p>
<p><strong>What is a turn off? </strong>Pick-up lines, bad teeth, lack of personality</p>
<p><strong>Are you a fan of my mullet?</strong> Abso-friggen-lutely! The longer the party the better! <img src='http://www.ronripple.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><strong>Are you single?</strong> He has my heart.</p>
<p><strong>Website where fans can find you?</strong> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Budweiser Shootout was an intense race to watch from start to finish with 14 different leaders, 23 lead changes and eight cautions, it was one for the record books.</p>
<p>Kevin Harvick started out the evening hanigng out in the back of the pack with a few minor mechanical challenges.  Lucky for him, with the way these races are set up, he was able to get them fixed and then work his way back to the front.</p>
<p>With only four laps remaining, Jamie McMurray lead the pack down the track with Johnson, K. Busch, Mears, Hamlin, and Harvick not far behind.  On the last lap, McMurray decides to cover his inside lane, when out of no where Kevin Harvick takes the high side and drives right by him.  It was almost as if he dropped it into &#8220;7th&#8221; gear and said &#8220;sorry buddy&#8230; you thought you had me. I&#8217;m checkin out.&#8221;  Click on the video below to watch this incredible finish.</p>
<p><center><object width="480" height="295">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GYpfoxn6KRE&#038;hl=en&#038;fs=1"></param>

<p>If the Bud Shootout speaks for what&#8217;s to come throughout the rest of the season, I would have to say we&#8217;re going to have another wild season.  Get excited because the biggest race of the year is only one week away.</p>
<p>All my fellow race fans, clean out your keggerator lines and start ordering some extra kegs because the Daytona 500 is getting closer.  For any of you attending the race make sure you e-mail me so we can get together.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Alright all my fellow NASCAR fans, now is the time to get recognized.  I was contacted this week by a National Network looking for the Biggest NASCAR Fans that will be attending the Daytona 500.  Now I know I&#8217;m NASCAR&#8217;s biggest fan, but I know there are a lot of  you out there who are just as big a fans, but just don&#8217;t have a blog to claim the spot.  Well now is your chance.</p>
<p>A national network is casting a national ad campaign to promote NASCAR&#8217;s &#8220;Nationwide&#8221; Series.  Each fan chosen will be featured in your own 30 second spot; explaining what you&#8217;ve done to show your devotion to your favorite driver that’s above and beyond the normal.  (If you&#8217;re a Jeff Gordon Fan, and you painted your room pink, then please don&#8217;t respond to this, because that&#8217;s not out of the norm)</p>
<p>You must be an adult, 18 - 55, man or woman, and of course, a FANATIC! Once chosen, the director and a film crew will interview you at the Daytona International Speedway in February.</p>
<p>Now I know a lot of you fellow NASCAR fans might be afraid of cameras, but let me tell you from personal experience that there&#8217;s nothing to be afraid of.  Just make sure you do what I do when ever I hear there&#8217;s going to be a camera around&#8230;. throw down a six pack of Bud Lite and pretend like you&#8217;re standing in the winners circle naked.  It works every time!</p>
<p>So, if you are a true die-hard in some way and IDEALLY have a story you&#8217;d like to share, these guys want you!  Make sure you contact me at ron @ ronripple dot com and I&#8217;ll make sure you get signed up.  Time is a wasting and this is an urgent deal, so make sure you contact me soon, because casting is right around the corner.</p>

<p><center></center>Rebecca Richardssss&#8230;. ow owww!  I first laid eyes on Ms. Richards a couple years ago at The Atlanta Motor Speedway.  This young lady was cheering for Kasey Kahne as if he was her boyfriend.  I kept looking over there and every single time Kasey Kahne went by she was on her feet cheering.  So of course me being the gentleman that I am&#8230; when I saw the guy she was with walk away, I walked up to her and told her I was Kasey Kahne&#8217;s Crew Cheif.  Obviously she didn&#8217;t believe me and it could have been because I was wearing a Tony Stewart shirt and drinking a beer, but I ended up hanging out with her and her boyfriend the rest of the race.  She&#8217;s an incredible girl&#8230; so make sure you go say hi to her on her website!<strong> </strong><strong>Name:</strong>  Rebecca Richards<strong>Age:</strong>  23<strong>School or Occupation:</strong>  I am a full time student at American InterContinental University seeking a bachelor’s degree in Visual Communications. Aside from school I work full time for the city. Very Busy!<strong>Hometown:</strong> A small town in South Georgia called Thomasville<strong>Favorite NASCAR racer:</strong> Kasey Khane!!! I have been a fan of Kasey since his rookie year! I picked him out at the race in Atlanta. He was second behind Jr. majority of that race and I kept telling the guy I was there with (who is a big Jr. fan) that Kasey was going to beat Jr. Unfortunately he didn’t that particular race, but he has been my favorite ever since.</p>
<p><strong>What’s your favorite track?</strong> Atlanta Motor Speedway! It is actually the only one I have had the privilege of watching a race at but it is in my home state!</p>
<p><strong>What’s your favorite part about NASCAR?</strong> There is absolutely nothing in this world better than being at the track and smelling the tires burning, having the wind blow your hair, and feeling the noise vibrate the whole stand as the cars wisp by lap after lap! It literally gives me chills!</p>
<p><strong>What’s the fastest you’ve ever been in a car?</strong> haha not NASCAR fast but about 100 mph and that was probably on the interstate of all places!</p>
<p><strong>What are your hobbies?</strong> My most time consuming hobby is modeling! Other than that I enjoy watching NASCAR on Sundays and watching my boyfriend ride motocross. I also enjoy fishing, fresh and salt water. I love spending a day at the beach and when there is time left over I like to just hang out!</p>
<p><strong>Favorite Drink:</strong> Budlight in the bottle! (Ron: My kind of girl!)</p>
<p><strong>What is the worst pick up line a guy has ever used on you?</strong> Your dad must be in jail…why&#8230; Cause he stole stars and put them in your eyes! The funny thing is the guy that said this to me; I ended up dating him for 2 years!</p>
<p><strong>What do you look for in a guy?</strong> First and foremost, I am completely attracted to guys with blue eyes! Next I want someone with a good personality that can make me laugh and cut up and have a good time! I also like a guy with a sort of hard side to them… I think I like the chase! Finally, I am really attracted to guys with nice backs!!!</p>
<p><strong>What is a turn off?</strong> A turn off is a guy that cant handle what he starts or cant keep the promises that he makes!</p>
<p><strong>Are you a fan of my mullet?</strong> There is no one else in the world that looks as sexy in a mullet as Ron Ripple!</p>
<p><strong>Are you single?</strong> No, I’m not single! I am happily in a relationship of two and a half years.</p>
<p><strong>Website where fans can find you?</strong>  I would love for everyone to stop by myspace and check out more photos of me and please leave me a comment!</p>

<p>The way this year has been going, I would think Carl Edwards is going to earn the &#8220;first loser&#8221; position.  He&#8217;s been in contention all year&#8230; from chasing Kyle Busch at the beginning of the season&#8230; to chasing Jimmie Johnson at the end.  He&#8217;s had an incredible year but unfortunatley it just wasn&#8217;t good enough.  With only one more race left in the season, Mr. Edwards has given it all he&#8217;s got.  He turned that &#8220;nice guy&#8221; image into a well&#8230;. &#8220;nice guy&#8221; image who got second place. </p>
<p>If anyone was going to beat Jimmie Johnson this year it was going to be either Kyle Busch or Carl Edwards.  Kyle made his bed early, but Carl Edwards went down fighting. </p>
<p>Another racer who I put all my money on before the chase began was Greg Biffle.  I picked &#8220;The Biff&#8221; as an underdog to win the Championship, but the S.O.B. just couldn&#8217;t get &#8216;er done.  He fought a good fight, but just didn&#8217;t have that winning edge to pull through.  He won a couple races at the end but he just didn&#8217;t have that winning streak he needed in order to take home the title.</p>
<p> <strong>Who was the biggest dissapointment?</strong></p>
<p>In my opinion the biggest dissapointment this year had to go to two drivers.  Now these two drivers I tend to make fun of in one way or another, but it&#8217;s only because they&#8217;re incredible racers and I have to make fun of someone.</p>
<p>Kyle Busch&#8230; I can&#8217;t say it enough!  Kyle Busch absolutely dominated the 2008 Season up until the chase.  He was the &#8220;bad guy&#8221; of the season and brought a lot of attention to the sport.  If I were a race God, I would have restructured the Chase and made these last final races a battle between the good and the bad.  Jimmie Johnson vs. Kyle Busch.  But unfortunately for me, I&#8217;m not a race God and can&#8217;t restructure the ending.  Kyle Busch is just gonna have to start over next year and prove himself again.  If anyone can do it&#8230; it&#8217;s him.</p>
<p>Jeff Gordon&#8230; the guy is one of the best racers to date.  He&#8217;s won championships and has beat some of the best drivers that have ever walked into the NASCAR world.  But unfortunately for Jeff Gordon, he got owned in the 2008 season.  He&#8217;s had a winless year thus far, and with only one race left, it doesn&#8217;t look good.  Lucky for him, he&#8217;s got a ridiculously good looking wife to go home to. </p>
<p>Who do you think is going to earn the &#8220;first loser&#8221; title?  Who do you think was the biggest dissapointment?</p>
