Greg Biffle |
I just love it when I go into a Subway and hear someone actually ask, "Exactly how big is a footlong sub?" |

Jeff Gordon |
He got engaged to Belgian model Ingrid Vandebosch over the weekend. So Gordon and Tony Stewart are each attached to the Battle of the Bulge in their own little way. |

Jimmie Johnson |
He cooked with renowned chef Wolfgang Puck this week in L.A. Puck had to sign an agreement promising he wouldn't singe Johnson's eyebrows. |

Kasey Kahne |
He did a pretty good job last weekend on the road course. Legend has it that he learned how to road race while eluding chicks on the dirt roads back home in rural Enumclaw, Wash. |

Jeff Burton |
I was way in the wrong for ranking Burton 10th last week. He was seventh last Sunday, and trust me, his car wasn't even that good this weekend. |

Matt Kenseth |
Report: Fan wakes up from nine-year coma, sees R&L Carriers car leading at Daytona, thinks it's Morgan Shepherd |

Kevin Harvick |
The good thing about getting wrecked in the Busch Series is that you almost always have two chances the next week to pay them back. |

Carl Edwards |
He is on the August cover of Men’s Health. It is hard to tell what glistened more: His teeth, his abs or the tears of the girls who saw the magazine. |

 |
Kurt Busch |
He thanked Rusty for the excellent road-course setup on Sunday. He then declined to use his restrictor-plate setup. |

 |
Dale Earnhardt Jr. |
He wasn't shown much on FOX's broadcast this week. Which means they are planning a full-scale Junior assault for Daytona. |

Denny Hamlin |
Report: Hamlin already bragging that his injury was more grotesque than Scott Riggs' |

Tony Stewart |
Actual exchange between Tony and television reporters last weekend:
Question: Forecast is calling for high 90s -- how much of a factor will the temperature be?
Tony: I was actually hoping it will be in the low 100s. That's what I'd like to see in the forecast. It will make you guys with the makeup sweat more.

Mark Martin |
Report: Martin's rap album panned by the few critics who secured a copy |

Ryan Newman |
Fans are crazy. Especially when they e-mail late at night. Actual e-mail I got last week: "Ryan! Go poop in your car!" |

 |
Kyle Busch |
Report: Kyle Busch narrowly edges out Tony Stewart as driver least likely to appear on cover of Men's Health |

 |
Jamie McMurray |
He pretty much had the quote of the weekend: "I had it in my head that I wanted to lead the first lap and I wrecked all the way from the bottom of the hill to the top." |
| 17 |

 |
Elliott Sadler |
He had a pretty good battle with Boris Said in the closing laps at Sonoma. It is a good thing their paint schemes were so different, because I couldn't tell them apart when they got out of the car. |

 |
Scott Riggs |
He is planning to re-injure himself this week to divert reporters' questions about returning to the scene of his big DNQ in February. |

Tony Raines |
A lap around Sonoma takes about 80 seconds. Or roughly the time it takes LarryMac to say "Fill-eeeep Lopez, crew chief of the No. 96 DLP/Texas Instruments Chevrolet of Terry Labonte." |

Dale Jarrett |
James Hylton, 70, competed in the Busch race at Milwaukee last weekend. He is almost old enough to be Dale Jarrett's father. |
