    Hey! How about a Kasey Kahne kissing booth? :P

    That would definitely work. I attended the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona and the window overlooking Kasey's garage was covered with messages written in everything from Sharpie pens to lipstick.

    And you certainly didn't visit the 'Kasey Kahne kissing booth', right Mike?
    But then, Crazy20, how about a Tony Stewart kissing booth, nah, too darn scratchy I would guess!

    Recognize that NASCAR stadiums are ridiculously large and shelve your unrealistic expectations for unlimited growth and instant success.

    fancan, I like Tony cause I think he's one hell of a driver and I like his spirt, but that doesn't mean I would stand in line for a chance to trade slobber with him.lol

    No, fancan, I didn't visit the Kahne's kissing booth. But the Stewart booth sounds like a good cartoon idea.
