When you are in the top tier of your job,
to me there is no excuse for bad behavor.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Luckily its not up to you. They'd ALL be out of a job and we who love the sport would be F'd.

He just needs to quit being a baby and run away from the cameras when he doesn't win a race. Everyone wants to win but he doesn't have to be a sore loser.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

The DID how ever learn to sound alike, look alike, memorize and repeat at least ten sponsor's names at the beginning of every sentence and contort their wrists while drinking from the sponsor's beverage container so the cameras get a good angle of the product.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I work with a few...most of which seem to have anger management issues. They also use to be Tony Stewart fans...

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

The only Kyle Bush fan I ever saw
was in the ceiling of a filling station men's room.
It didn't work either. :LAUGH:
Budumpum!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I just saw who the first 5 inductees into the hall of fame were. David Pearson got screwed. No way Bill France Jr. should have gotten in.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I'm still confused how Lee Petty didn't make the first group...along with a number of others.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

For the initial first batch of inductees they should have had at least 10, if not 15. Over 60 years of history crunched into 5 people leaves alot of talent snubbed.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Race - ist!!!!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Nice to see JJ have a well deserved rest tonight!
Now, if only Shrubs problems will continue...
:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

11 loose lug nuts noticed on 18's truck before the start of this truck race! Someone mustve felt that was the only way to beat him. Lol


And no, his crew didn't forget to tighten them. It happened while the car was being impounded after qualifying on the pole. NASCAR officials should be investigated.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

And how does he answer this biotch move? With a win, of course.:smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

All Star race. Seems ok so far.

I like Truex but DW is getting old with the NAPA "know how" crap. Biff would probably be my favorite but you can't predict this race. :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Now that the showdown is over, we can get to the real race. Gonna be one of the wildest of 2010 no doubt! :gears:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Glad to see Jimmy Johnson lead so many laps and still manage to lose the race!


And to Pee Wee Herman II Aka Kyle Busch.... Waaaaaaa He cut me off! Get over it. It is called racing for a cool million.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Haha, we know Kyle would never cut anyone off. :crazy:

I was actually happy with the outcome; Kurt has grown up since he has been with Penske.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Nascar Hall Fame is on Speed:fro:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Everything that comes out of DW's mouth gets old...."boogey boogey lets go racing boys" need I say more....the most famous words in racing for the wrong reasons!!! I get so tired of hearing that its not funny. DW is in bed with Hendricks and Kevin Harvick just listen to how many times he mentions them during races...makes me wanna puke...Sure glad "Mikey" sucks or we would have to hear that all the time too.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Boogity boogity boogity! Lets go RACING boys!! :23:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I don't mind the Boogity, Boogity. It's a hick sport and DW fills that need, and he's a champion so he's been up and down the ladder with experience. The Toyota plugs get old, along with any driver in a Toyota, but I still like him. When the coverage switches to NBC and the other stations I don't like their commentators much.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Back when I lived in an area that had MRN on the radio I would listen to the radio and watch the TV with the volume down. Joe Moore was my favorite. :CHEERS:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I'm more excited about the posibility of Johnson missing the chase. As far as he's fallen in the past few weeks, I like the idea of him and Jr. on the outside looking in. Hey, a guy can hope...First to worst...

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

That's how I watch NASCAR now, DW can't call Ford or Chevy he's call it now #12 car or 99 car now you say what kind car is it, DW:smack:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Me thinks the spoiler is making a difference. YAY!

Before the COT I was an avid follower of NASCAR and never missed a race. Now after 3 years of follow the leader I barely tune in to the highlights on ESPN much less watch the races (I think I've seen 3 this year). For the first time since I can remember I am actually looking forward to the Indy 500 more than the Coke 600!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I usually reserve this Sunday for all-race day. I'm actually more excited about the Mustang (and Challenger) debuting in the Nationwide race than I am about the Cup race.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Same here,

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Brain fart on my part, the Mustang and Challenger debut in the Nationwide series will be the Daytona race on the 4th of July weekend, not the Charlotte race this weekend.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Happy to see JJ and Hamilin smack each other aroung, as well as seeing Kyle screw it up big time in the pits. I might just end up enjoying his race...(besides, LSU just beat Alabama in the SEC champ. baseball game), it's already a good weekend, sportswise.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

No smell....no foul!

I'll go out on a limb and predict #88 will finish 31st..................

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Pretty short limb, but I was hoping for something like 45th...

I was really ready for Shrub to get punched in the face after the race. Probably the best part, other than JJ finding the wall and going out 37th or so.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Did he get punched? By who?

Long over due.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Unfortunately he didn't get his face rearranged, but Jeff Burton had a post race 'discussion' with him that was caught on camera and no one disagreed with. Shrub got into Burton late in the race and cut down his tire, ending what could have been a decent night for Jeff.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Was a good race indeed! I very much enjoyed seeing Kyle drive a beat up race car from the back all the way to the front to 3rd.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Its going to happen soon. Most of the other drivers are getting tired of his crap. I'm suprised it has'nt happened already.
I guess it hard to hit PEE-WEE Herman......:23:

#3..........I had tears in my eyes (beer)!

I'll go for a repeat tonight with the #88.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

dammit. Is sprint tonite? I'm not gonna be able to see it

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Puhleeze tell my you didn't buy into that 'win' last night. If there was ever a WWE sponsored race, scripted and all, then that was it. I was so pizzed after looking forward to the debut of the Mustang and Challenger and hearing nothing but #3 this and #3 that. They blew a great chance to cater to the fans who understood the importance of the new cars, and decided to bow down to the lowest denominator...the Earn-heads.

The Cup race is at least more enjoyable, with a good mix of leaders, and Kyle getting turned (as he said) by the 42. Now if onyl the 48 can kiss the wall, it'll be a really good race.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Hahahahehehehoho, Wipeout!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Glad to see Mark got out of his 'hot' car OK, and that everyone else was all right. Even happier to see JJ drop in the points standings. What a way to take out half the field!

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Nascar .... what a load .... mmm lets just put Jr in the 3 car so he can mysteriously win .... talk about rigged

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Can anybody look me in the eye tell me with a straight face that this crap isn't rigged?

Re: NASCAR thread
 

It ain't rigged. There is just too much going on to fix a race. You can't control the cars around you, bad engine parts, the weather, Kyle bigears, and any number of other variables. Even Oliver Stone can't find evidence of a race being fixed.

I'm not a jr fan but I don't think for a minute his win was not legit. He won using a car that was legal but you have to know they put the best of everything in that machine.

Any evidence of cheating or special treatment?????? :smack:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Watching some of the most dominant drivers in the series pretty much run on cruise control behind someone who hasn't had a victory in two years might be considered evidence...

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I agree. Noone even really challenged Jr. at the end of the race. Like Falco said, they just kinda rode around in cruise control on those last few laps behind him. It's like they were all scared to pass him cause they didn't want to ruin the moment. They didn't even try to pass him.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

There may be something to this. I painted a "3" on the side of my Mach and went 10.99 bone stock on the oe Goodyears.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Jr is just lucky 18 had a more restrictive plate. Wouldve been a blood bath had the power been equal.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Huh? I never watch the Nationwide or Truck races unless I'm at the track, but I did'nt understand this, or were you just saying it was rigged also?

Re: NASCAR thread
 

There have always been dominant drivers and teams. Why if they fix the races for Jr does his win column with the 88 look sad. They put a maximum effort in that car and it performed well. Many of you can also face the fact that Jr has a good record at Daytona and IS a 2 time champion in that series. I'm not a Jr fan but give the guy some credit.

FYI, running behind Jr until the end is a great way to win a race. If Logano is telling the truth he planned a last lap pass but didn't get help. He started 10th and finished 2nd so it looks like a smart move on his part not that the fix was in.

I'll go back to my first point, you can't fix a race with so many variables unless you allow someone to cheat. I don't think for a second there was an organized effort to allow the "3" to cheat. Another thing was the Gen2 factor which made the cars more of a challenge to drive. I still don't get why Chevy didn't use the Camaro for the series and not the Impala. :smack:

You will notice that the Mustang that finished 3rd was driven by the guy with much of the limited test time with the new cars. :smokin:
