    Any chance the Virginia drivers show their support for the Hokies family by sporting "VT" memorabilia this weekend? By declaration of The Mayor, yes. In fact, all cars will carry VT decals. ... Call me a sentimental fool, but it's apropos that Burton assumes point this week. And as a show of support, the Virginia Tech Fight Song, Tech Triumph:

    We all consider ourselves part of NASCAR Nation, but we're also part of a larger nation -- one that makes us no different than anyone else around the world. We're all part of mankind, an ironic word in that many times we are not kind to others.

    NASCAR will pay tribute to the dead and wounded at Virginia Tech this weekend in several different ways. And there will be VPI grads working with heavy hearts in the garages and back at the shops.

    NASCAR Nation can show its support by donning orange and maroon. It's a small, maybe even insignificant, show of support but you do not know to whom it may make a difference.

    You have seen the Hoyas tumble, you have made the Indians cry,

    Worthy teams from Lexington have fought with all their might;
    But now it's time to show the world that VPI can fight.

    No foe can stand the test, so fight your best, and we will do the rest.
