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?

swittenauer Enthusiast

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.

Guhlia Rising Star

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.

swittenauer Enthusiast

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

Guhlia Rising Star

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.

Finally, a Nascar fan. Any favorite drivers? We are going to Bristol & I can't wait.

Guhlia Rising Star

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

mn farm gal Apprentice

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!

I went to the Bristol night race 2 years ago with my brothers.

I like Roush Racing - I like Greg Biffle

I hate Tony Stewart...

TinkerbellSwt Collaborator

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!

swittenauer Enthusiast

We are Rousch fans. I"m a big Mark Martin fan the most & my husband goes for Matt Kenseth. Our basement is loaded with Rousch drivers memorabilia along with Dale Jarrett & Ricky Rudd too.

MySuicidalTurtle Enthusiast

I have always liked Jeff Gordon.

      Hey @Butch68, I also have dermatitis herpetiformis but don't suffer from it anymore. I used to drink Guinness too but I drink Cider now when out on social occasions. I assume you are in Ireland or the UK. If it's any good to you ... 9 White Deer based in Cork brew a range of gluten-free products including a gluten-free Stout. I'm not sure if they are certified though. https://www.9whitedeer.ie/ I haven't come across any certified gluten-free stouts this side of the pond.
    • Scott Adams
      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.
