Jimmie Johnson spent the last five seasons as Jeff Gordon's protégé and apprentice at Hendrick Motorsports. But after winning his first Nextel Cup championship Sunday, Johnson now is the No. 1 headliner at HMS, while Gordon for the first time in his Cup career has been relegated to No. 2 in the organization. And no one could be happier about that changing of the guard than Gordon. "If it is, that's fine with me," Gordon said. "I love what Jimmie Johnson brings into motorsports. I'm excited to be a part of it." It was Gordon back in 2001 who gave Johnson the break he so desperately needed, giving birth to a career that has been nothing short of spectacular – one that reached its highest heights Sunday when Johnson won the Cup title at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

Why don't they use normal air in race car tires?

Many race car teams use nitrogen instead of air in their tires because nitrogen has a much more consistent rate of expansion and contraction compared to the usual air. Often, a half pound of pressure will radically affect traction and handling. With track and tire temperatures varying over the duration of a race, the consistency of nitrogen is needed.Nitrogen pressure is more consistent than normal air pressure, because air typically contains varying amounts of moisture due to changes in the relative humidity on race day. Water causes air to be inconsistent in its rate of expansion and contraction. So, a humid race in the southeast United States or a dry race in the desert western United States could make for unpredictable tire pressures if "dry" nitrogen were not used.Nitrogen is also used in the high-pressure tires on large and small aircraft.

Are the toys you buy your kids safe?

Have you ever had a bad experience with a toy? Once when my oldest was about 6, I bought my her a race car that was battery powered. For some reason she put in on her head, and it had enough power to twirl her hair up into the car, and around the wheel. I almost pulled the hair right from her scalp. I ended up having to cut a big chunk out of her hair. It left a nice size lump on her head.I had purchased the baby a baby rattle and she got her hand caught in it all the way up to her arm. She screamed. My son once had a tricycle, and every time it made just the slightest of turn it would flip him over. Were do you get your information on safe and unsafe toys? Do you read recall sheets? Or just carefully examine as you buy? Were you ever dissappointed in your purchases?
