Now is the time to pray. But now is NOT the time to panic. We must do as the IZOD Girl has always done: we must keep our heads as everyone else is losing theirs. Godspeed.

(Stay poised in IZOD PerformX®!!)

    I’m going in after Cameron like a Storm Trooper on meth at Chicagoland. I WILL NOT BE DENIED. Like Truman said: “Boys, if you ever pray, pray for me now. I don’t know whether you fellows ever had a load of hay fall on you, but when they told me yesterday what had happened, I felt like the moon, the stars and all the planets had fallen on me. I’ve got the most terribly responsible job a man ever had.”

    Wait! Herbert Hoover died??

    (Seriously. I’m on board with this manhunt, but it won’t help much. I’ve been searching for hot tail all my life – I seem to repel it like bear spray.)

    I’ll use my dowsing rod to find her. (Giggity.)

    When they harvest the corn in Iowa, we’ll find her. I’m pretty sure she got lost trying to find Iowa Speedway and wandered into a cornfield. Until then, y’all are sol on finding her because the corn is too high and too bountiful.

    Jeez, guys, just stand in a Winners circle with a trophy and a cameraman; she’ll show up at some point just to get in the picture.

    ;)

    Steve Bartman, you cad. Maybe if he wasn’t so focused on copping a feel, he would have either caught the damn ball or let Moises Alou have at it.

    In either case, I still blame Alex Gonzalez.

    And if the IZOD IndyCar Series can’t find Carmen in the lovely wine country, I fear that the Teamsters have become involved, sadly.

  • By Tom G., August 11, 2010 @ 11:54 am

    Interestingly, ever since Izod girl went missing the Firestone Firehawk has been seen lurking in the background of the winner’s circle. I suspect “fowl” play.

  • By The Speedgeek, August 11, 2010 @ 12:14 pm

    Goddamn it. Tom’s right. I knew that Firehawk would turn out to be no good. And after all of those times I could have wrestled that t-shirt gun out of his hands and used it to put him to a quick, painless and 100% cotton-y death with one shot between his sunglassed eyes and did not, I blame myself for Cameron’s disappearance. This one’s on me, Pagodans. I’ll be glad to employ Pressdog’s and everybody else’s help, but I’ll not rest until that SOB is roasting on a giant spit in Hobbson’s backyard and Cameron is returned to her rightful place: everywhere that needs some glorious sprucing up and/or some critical product placement.

  • By Larry Phelps, August 11, 2010 @ 12:56 pm

    I got word she’s lying low with John Book in rural Pennsylvania.

  • By Rob, August 11, 2010 @ 1:16 pm

    I wonder how well roasted firehawk goes with fava beans and a nice chianti? Is that too creepy? yeah, it is.

  • By Jason McVeigh, August 11, 2010 @ 2:05 pm

    She didn’t become a sprint girl did she? Cos if she went to Nascar I just don’t think I could take that.. (Weeps quietly to self over a scotch and cigarette whilst looking at her busty photograph)… Come back Cameron. Hang on, maybe Ben and Chip kidnapped her in retaliation for the Delta wang not being picked.

  • By Christopher Leone, August 11, 2010 @ 2:41 pm

    I think Danica kidnapped her because she couldn’t stand her presence. She’s determined to be the only female in IndyCar once again! Simona, watch your back!

  • By Ron Ford, August 11, 2010 @ 7:45 pm

    Thanks for the John Book reference Larry. Wonderful film. I can just imagine the sight of Cameron in one of those little Amish frocks, or even the Ashley Judd sun dress look, or one of those Japanese schoolgirl skirts………oh wait, that is a whole ‘nother genre.
    Sorry!

    I’ve heard reports that after Cameron worked her delightful Izods into one of those victory circle shots Brian Barnhart promptly black flagged her for blocking, citing some previously obscure rule that states the “Izod girl must always hold her line and allow room for the hat change girl to pass”.

    And by the way, those incessant product placement hat changes are as annoying as Mrs. Hospenthal’s handler.

  • By Bickelmom, August 11, 2010 @ 8:03 pm

    I have nothing witty to add here, but I just wanted to say that you all make me laugh so much. I heart Pagodians.

  • By Heit Harrelson, August 11, 2010 @ 10:03 pm

    Roy – do you smell that? It’s Panteen and Nomex. She’s close. She’s gotta be close. Danica uses some herbal shit that’s $250 a bottle and Simona uses deer scent like some northern Michigan hunter. I know that smell. She’s close!

  • By Riss, August 13, 2010 @ 9:55 am

    I remember hearing that IZOD only was providing enough sponsorship to Andretti Autosport to sponsor RHR through Texas. Then they suddenly had sponsorship for the rest of the year. At that exact time, Cameron stops appearing at all races. Im guessing IZOD cut the budget on everything else to keep RHR in business. And Im not happy. There are other ways IZOD….you could have had a telethon, operated your own lemonade stand…hell you could have hired a guy named God to operate a brothel.

    But to get rid of Cameron, for this I will not stand. How about WE sponsor her? It cant cost that much to get a Silent Pagoda firesuit made. Ill throw in the change in my couch and the money I traditionally spend on churros. Pagodians, this is our chance to change the world!

  • By John, August 13, 2010 @ 1:53 pm

    Maybe they found a woman who was actually attractive…. (Have you seen her in person?) and was maybe good for more than being a background in an interview.

  • By irlfan, August 13, 2010 @ 2:21 pm

    I second Riss’s proposal.

  • By Roy Hobbson, August 13, 2010 @ 10:12 pm

    Maybe they found a woman who was actually attractive…. (Have you seen her in person?)

    I have. And maybe you’re right, “John.” Maybe me & humanity & Playboy have totally misjudged her. Maybe she’s hideous like a fat & homeless leper. Maybe I should re-evaluate things.

    /does not re-evaluate things

  • By Roy Hobbson, August 13, 2010 @ 10:13 pm

    Oh yeah. Hear hear, Riss. Your proposal is wise AND pragmatic. Seconded & approved.

  • By Ron Ford, August 14, 2010 @ 1:03 pm

    Count me in Riss. I will kick in my college fund. Oh wait, I drank that up years ago. Ok then, I will forgo my annual raise and donate that. Oh wait, my company already forgoes my annual raise. Do you accept PayPal? Anyway, does it have to be a firesuit? How much can a wet T-shirt and a pair of cutoffs cost?

    This is a serious matter. It is a proven fact that the decline of boxing began when they cut back on the girls who carried the round cards around the ring between rounds. (Ok honey, you just do the four sides once and sit down) Judging by Cameron’s Playboy layout I believe that a retro Las Vegas ring card girl outfit would result in an immediate spike, so to speak, in the Versus ratings.

  • By Tom G., August 14, 2010 @ 10:33 pm

    I can’t afford to buy her a Nomex firesuit, but I’ll gladly chip in for a spatula.

    Man, what I wouldn’t give to see IZOD girl waving a spatula at the camera in Sonoma. That would be priceless.

    50 Pagodans for the first person to wander into a Versus background shot waving a spatula!

  • By Chris B., August 15, 2010 @ 9:49 pm

    Don’t panic I have confirmed with her agent that she’s headed to Sonoma after turning down an offer from Sprint. WHEW that was close! Let’s reward this good behavior with a boquet of spatulas. I’ll be there and can’t wait to get a glimpse of that firesuit and I found her fan page on Facebook in the meantime to tide me over. Check it – http://www.facebook.com/#!/IzodTrophyGirl?ref=ts

  • By DZ, August 17, 2010 @ 9:18 am

    I’m in with whatever you all decide.

    Akin to the “UDAMAN!” screamed at nearly every shot of every professional golf tournment since 1992, we Pagodans shall visually be obnoxious with a spatula in the background of every VS shot we can muster.

  • By DZ, August 17, 2010 @ 9:46 am

    Cameron ‘IZOD Girl’ Haven is lovely.
    Sprint Cup girls just remind my of Ricky Bobby’s wife.

    I really, really, really and truly hate you NASCAR.

    Seriously hate it.

    With the fire of a thousand Honda exhausts, melting every last headlight sticker and ‘rubbin is racin’ tshirt.

    Your pusillanimous perfunctory pandering serves no good and displeases the racing gods.
