- Tony Stewart talking to fans in Charlotte, October 2006. / TrackBunnyFilms.Com
The best question and answer from this, which is a good read regardless, is:
Q. There could be times next season where Tony the driver and Tony the owner are not exactly going to see eye-to-eye. You can’t fire yourself –
TONY STEWART: Sure, I can. It makes it easier to fire yourself if you own part of the team.

Tony Stewart will present the Indiana State Police unit with bulletproof, stab-proof vests for police dogs on Thursday at O’Reilly Raceway Park in Clermont, Indiana.
Stewart donated money to provide 30 vests for the state police’s K-9 unit and for 10 for dogs in Georgia, North Carolina, New Mexico and Minnesota.
The vests costs $695 each, according to Susie Jean of Socorro, N.M.’s website. That would bring the total of all K-9 bulletproof vests at nearly $28,000.

Sit tight, I don’t believe it’s that kind of press conference.
Tony Stewart will take part in the weekly NASCAR teleconference for members of the media tomorrow at 2 p.m.
But here’s the interesting part - Ryan Newman will also be giving a weekly teleconference CAM for members of the media tomorrow at 3 p.m.
NASCAR usually holds the press conferences for media to call in and ask questions at 2 p.m. but they’re doing a special one this week.
Makes you think, doesn’t it?

There is no stopping Kyle Busch this season. The only thing that can slow him down is the muddy grass in the infield as he tries to do burnouts.
Busch beat defending champion Jimmie Johnson on a two lap shootout to win his seventh race of the season. He is only six races away from beating Jeff Gordon’s record of thirteen wins in a season.
Coming in third was Kevin Harvick with a solid run that placed him back in the Top 12 for the chase. Harvick’s return to the Top 12 knocked out his teammate, Clint Bowyer, who finished in 22nd position tonight.
Greg Biffle finished fourth with Busch’s teammate, Tony Stewart, finishing in fifth.
The Sprint Cup Series will take a week off and return to Indianapolis the following weekend for the Allstate 400 at the Brickyard. (more…)

I’ve been sitting here for almost two hours debating on what to say about the situation that finally was leaked and somewhat announced today.
Yes, that announcement.
Tony Stewart will not be returning to Joe Gibbs Racing in 2009.
Tony Stewart is the reason I got back into NASCAR and is my favorite driver. I know people who want to persue a career in NASCAR or Sports Journalism shouldn’t have a favorite driver, but he’s mine.
I’m going to wait until tomorrow to write out my thoughts after seeing the press conference. I’m in class when it airs so I’m recording it and will watch it when I get home. I will then review it and write what I’m feeling as I’m watching it. I’ve gotten a lot of e-mails today about the topic and I’m just going to wait and see Tony’s face when announcing it. That’s when I’ll know it’s the right thing to do or what I should say.

As talked about in the previous post, it turns out that it was Chrissy Wallace standing next to Tony Stewart during opening ceremonies of the Coke Zero 400 in Daytona.
This posts and previous posts are not insinuating anything is going on between them. My personal take is the body language is a little close… probably closer than what I stand next to my friends or sponsors. Regardless of anything, I support them both!

By far, the top searched keywords of the day here at “Diary of a Track Bunny” today were none other than the names “Tony Stewart” and “Chrissy Wallace” together.
Tony is a two-time Sprint Cup Series champion and current driver of the #20 Home Depot Toyota. He is 37.
Chrissy is the daughter of Mike Wallace, niece to Kenny and Rusty Wallace, and cousin to Steve Wallace. She is the driver of the #03 Germain Racing truck in the Craftsman Truck Series on occassion.
