Alex Tagliani will never win a race again?
Doubt, since he had his head to Toronto this year's Indy, he had great potential, but his final laps were not as good. He placed a disappointing ninth, I deserved better than Tagliani, but after all that the first 50 laps he had failed on the first five and just placed in the top ten. Congratulations, Mr. Tagliani! You know how to blow the head of a half-hour!

You may be aware of its capture attention rather than his persona km / h on the racetrack. Until you know him, he will take care of the rest. His name alone gives reason to sit down and read.
Speed. Scott Speed, that is. Yes, it is his original name, and he is from Manteca, California. The 25-year-old took the road to Formula One at a time when U.S. drivers stick with NASCAR, Indycar weighing casual. After 13 events in the ARCA RE / MAX Series, he has four victories and leads the points race – it can be as Arca SunTrust Rookie of the Year rankings – and has already NASCAR joined the parade as a driver for Red Bull Racing. The energy drink with rabies bovine red is the ideal sponsor for Mr. eccentric himself.
Speed flair for the flamboyant includes blue and purple painted nails – pedicure before he races to help relax – wear bright colors and decorated, oversized sunglasses and an occasional case of losing face. If you see his head shaking or stirring of his language is just the latest piece on his I-pod ear transplants. Think former NBA star Dennis Rodman without the tattoos and colored hair – Warning, do not give him ideas.
Its travel full time in ARCA, the No. 2 Red Bull Toyota Camry, is owned by Eddie Sharp Racing. In the Craftsman Truck Series, he drives the No. 22 Red Bull Tundra property Bill Davis Racing. A concert is that country, followed by a tour coveted Cup, but there is no hurry. Its planned entry into the Sprint Cup Series planned for 2010 at the earliest, which is fine with him. He has too much fun to accelerate the timetable – no pun intended.
Speed burst into NASCAR with a bang last March at Martinsville, finishing 10th in his second career start. His first victory came in his sixth start May 30 at Dover. It currently has two top-five and four top-10 finishes in eight races. His time of siege is part of a pilot program development BDR to get him ready for high level competition.
And the boy can drive. In fact, he argues, NASCAR is a breeze compared So the Formula One if he can conquer the last circuit, Kyle Busch has nothing on his exuberance, style or racing ability. Ask him.
Busch is two years younger than the speed and NASCAR seems to have at your fingertips. The speed is impressive and laughs at the latest target shrub – Formula One racing car in the offseason. Busch has already provided an F-1 year-end test and give him a try if everything pans, even if the race itself is less exciting, "he said.
Speed said the opposite. He dismisses the idea that another American, especially one so accustomed to NASCAR can handle the g-forces and put up with the neck strain. He argues that the passage of more difficult (F-1) easier (NASCAR) is the way forward, and Busch is stuck in reverse.
speed racing part time in the Truck series began with Kansas, April 26, followed by Lowe's Motor Speedway, Dover, Michigan, Bristol, Talladega, Martinsville, Atlanta, Texas, Phoenix and Homestead-Miami. His powers include two truck races earlier Atlanta and Martinsville.
Imagine the exposure he'll get over the next two years.

De Ferran Leaves Honda, Ex-honda Designer Willis Joins Red Bull
Gil de Ferran has filed for an immediate resignation relinquishing his role as Honda’s sporting director. The former Brazilian Indycar racer has won twice the CART title and the Indianapolis 500 in 2003 before joining Honda’s team in April of 2005.
Unfortunately after years of staying with the manufacturer of Honda air filter recharge kit, Honda, de Ferran has find out that the job has failed to match up with what he initially hopes for. The 39-year-old Brazilian Indycar racer has left the team to pursue other opportunities.
De Ferran said in a team statement, “I am obviously very disappointed to be leaving the Honda F1 team. I have a huge amount of respect and admiration for Honda, with whom I have been successfully associated for more than 10 years. Consequently, my decision to leave has not been an easy one. I simply feel that I came to this team to fulfil a particular role and it has not materialized as I had hoped. I would like to thank everyone at the team for the support I have been given and I wish them luck in the future.”
De Ferran’s departure came less than a year after Jenson Button obtained the contemporary Honda Team’s maiden victory in Hungarian Grand Prix. The English racer ended the season with a strong string of points-paying finishes.
Unfortunately for Honda’s team it has suffered a dramatic misfortune this season with Button taking their only Championship point far in the recent French Grand Prix.
Honda team Principal Nick Fry said, “I am disappointed that Gil is leaving our team. Since he joined us in 2005 we have enjoyed a very positive relationship. However, a Formula One team is rather like a jigsaw puzzle in that every piece has to fit precisely in its place. Gil has become increasingly uncomfortable in his role and feels the time has now come to seek fresh opportunities. We are very much hoping that Gil will choose to maintain close links with the Honda family.”
Willis joins Red Bull
In other news another ex-Honda this time the former designer Geoff Willis has joined Red Bull as part of the team continuous recruitment drive with the hope of taking them to the top of Formula One.
Willis will work for start designer Adrian Newey, Red Bull’s design boss. These two great designers have previously gained success with Williams in the 1990s.
Willis joins Red Bull as technical director but will be reporting to Newey on design. The 47-yea-old have left Honda last summer after Japanese Shuhei Nakamoto was promoted above him.
At Williams, Newey and Willis has formed one of F1’s highly-successful partnerships wherein their cars won 4 drivers’ titles and 5 constructors’ championships from 1992 to 1997.
The addition of Willis is part of a series of high-profile technical appointments by Red Bull which identified 2008 as the year they hope to make a serious impression at the front in F1.

Indy Racing League (IRL) Tickets – Power Takes Lucky No. 3
It’s been more than three months since Indycar hero, Team Penske racer and former Dancing with the Stars champion Helio Castroneves was indicted by the federal government with seven counts of tax evasion and conspiracy to commit fraud, but with the racecar driver’s trial still yet to come (scheduled for March 2 in Miami) Penske Racing president Tim Cindric has chosen to make an active decision in advance regarding the future of his team. That decision’s name is Will Power, and he’s been called to the forefront of IndyCar action as Castroneves’ temporary replacement in Team Penske’s No. 3 entry.
Power, a former competitor with KV Racing and 27-year-old driver from Toowoomba, Australia, was introduced this week as Penske Racing’s newest addition and Castroneves’ replacement for 2009 preseason testing and perhaps even the year, depending on how the latter’s trial goes in March. Castroneves could face 35 years in federal prison if charged on all seven counts of tax evasion and conspiracy to commit fraud, but the IndyCar speedster could be back in the driver’s seat for the league’s season opener at the Honda Grand Prix of St. Petersburg on April 5 should the trial go in his favor.
The next race 33-year-old speed racer Castroneves must win is his early March trial, but he remains upbeat in news conferences despite a possible jail sentence, claiming, “My life, it’s definitely about racing. I can’t wait for this thing to be over, for me to be back in the race car, do what I love most, which is racing.” Castroneves, a Sao Paulo, Brazil native, joined Team Penske in 2000 and started making tracks in the IRL right then and there, becoming the first driver since Al Unser in the early 1970s to win the Indianapolis 500 (considered the “Greatest Spectacle in Racing”) two years in a row, capturing the title in 2001 and again in 2002. He remains the only driver ever to have won the Indy 500 in his first two attempts, and is the youngest driver in IRL history to win the race twice. The Brazilian racer has won 14 total IndyCar Series races for Team Penske since 2001, finishing the league second overall to Target Chip Ganassi Racing’s Scott Dixon in the 2008 championship.
Will Power, the man set to replace Castroneves until his trial is over (and perhaps even longer) is in a desirable spot to jumpstart his IRL career. The native Australian has formerly raced open-wheel formula cars in Europe, racing with KV Racing Technology and making a move to the U.S. in 2006 in order to compete in the Champ Car World Series. His strength in road races makes him an asset to Penske Racing, and his dominating performances at the pole in last October’s Surfers Paradise race in Australia and again in Long Beach at the end of last season put him at the forefront of up-and-coming drivers. While Power doesn’t have the experience that Castroneves has, he now has the chance to show the racing world what it’s been missing. To catch Power in action as he slams the pedal to the floor, get Indy Racing League (IRL) tickets from http://www.stubhub.com/irl-tickets-indy-car-series and enjoy the sound of speed!

Popeye [VHS] $9.95 Nothing interests filmmaker Robert Altman more than a contained culture that mixes bare humanity with local eccentricity (think of his M*A*S*H and Nashville). So Altman’s Popeye (1980), based on the old comic strip, works best as a portrait of a busy, cluttered, cartoonish town called Sweethaven. But it is much less successful as a comprehensible story about the famous sailor with massive forear… |

Gypsy (2003 Broadway Revival Cast) $7.49 The casting of cute, petite Bernadette Peters as the formidable Mama Rose in the 2003 revival of Gypsy led to a few raised eyebrows: Was this egregious miscasting?

Peters took a slightly different approach to the role, emphasizing … |
