Meg, I liked the flowers, too! Especially the gold/yellow one. I would much much rather look at those than the wrecks. I opened one of the wrecks and ignored...

Forty-five cars are currently entered for the NASCAR Sprint Cup Sylvania 300 this weekend, but Joey Logano will be entered in an additional entry since Joe Gibbs Racing has decided to field a fourth car at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Logano originally was supposed to drive the No. 96 Hall of Fame Racing car at New Hampshire. The 18-year-old driver, who takes over JGR's No. 20 Cup car next year being vacated by Tony Stewart, was supposed to make his Cup debut last week at Richmond but did not qualify when rain washed out time trials.
JGR wanted Logano to make his debut in a Home Depot car and therefore plans to enter the No. 02 for the New Hampshire race, according to a team spokesman.
Ken Schrader will drive the No. 96 car for Hall of Fame.
Other entries for this weekend's race include Chad McCumbee in the No. 45 Petty Enterprises Dodge in place of Kyle Petty. It is not uncommon for Petty to skip a race at New Hampshire, the site of where his son, Adam, was killed in a crash during Nationwide Series practice in 2000.
Among other entrants in cars that don’t use full-time drivers, Aric Almirola is entered in the Dale Earnhardt Inc. No. 8 entry, Bill Elliott is slated to drive for the Wood Brothers in the No. 21, Tony Raines will pilot the Front Row Motorsports No. 34, and Johnny Sauter will drive the No. 70 Haas CNC Racing machine.
Logano, Raines and Carl Long, driving a family-owned car, are the only entrants for part-time teams in addition to the 43 full-time teams that participate on the circuit.
