I'm not a Nascar fan, but I LOVE racing. We mostly like sprint cars, micro sprints, go karts, and so on. That's pretty much all the local scene is around here. Actually, our business focuses on making fuel injection systems for micro sprints. You into any other forms of racing?

I think you & I have gotten on this topic before on a drag racing post. My husband & I drag race but we love to watch Nascar. We are going to Bristol again in March.

That may very well be. My memory is horrible. We went on the Hot Rod Magazine Power Tour a few years ago... That was all drag racing. I probably told you that before though. We worked for Stewart Warner Performance and were doing a booth at each stop of the tour.

I don't remember that but that sounds interesting. I'll bet you love what you do.

Yup. Absolutely adore it. I grew up around racing. We started going to the track when I was about 3. I started racing when I was 7. I only quit a few years ago. We still go to the races two times a week every week. It's a blast.

So, what kind of drag racing do the two of you do?

My husband and I love the nascar races also. Dayton 500 will be right around the corner too!!! We use to go to the track in town for many years and hubby pitted for cars and also ran water truck a few years on our dirt track. For now we just watch it on tv. We watch the sprint cars also. And busch race on Saturdays if we are home and not outside, truck race is watched very little just to catch up on the news of it all.

Hey, a fellow sprint car fan... Woo-Hoo!!! What kind of sprint car races do you go to? 410's?

My ultimate favorite driver has always been Darrel Waltrip!! I also like to watch Kevin Harvick, Casey Kahne, and more. My husband want to go to Daytona in 2008 for a week or more. I think he said it will be Daytona's 50th anniversary so there would be a special feeling for him, he thinks. As far as sprint cars we have them in our area rarely. But on Wednesday nights one of the channels on tv carries a dirt race and sometime they are the sprint cars. Like Eldora!

Nascar fan here! My favorite is of course Jimmie Johnson. He is such a cutie too! I am actually liking Denny Hamlin this year too.. I loathe Tony Stewart, Dale Jr. and Jeff Gordon! I cant wait for the new season to start, we have never been to a race though. Some are close, like Lowes but they are next to impossible to get tickets for!

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
