Re: NASCAR thread
Hmmm Roush Racing with a Nascar violation. I wonder what the forum would be like if it were from the Hendricks camp. Oh wait, I think I can find some of the responses from last year. :23:

I did post it up, and it looks like the same issues plagued a number of the Nationwide cars as well. I doubt he'll see his crew chief suspended or a mega-fine (for further reference see: Hendrick Racing, 2007 Racing season) :borg: |

But with that said, again if it were a Hendricks car most of you would be shouting for huge fines, suspensions, and points docked.:crazy: |

Re: NASCAR thread
This week in hot Atanta I'am taking Carl #99 his on a roll.

Re: NASCAR thread
Carl gets 100 points docked plus loses the 10 points earned toward the chase. Causing him to drop to seventh in the standings and Rousch is fined $100,000 along with the crew chief is suspended for six weeks.
Seems a little harsh doesn't it. |

Not that I'm a fan but I hope R. Gordon gets off the hook for his ?? violation. The more I read about it, I'm convinced they were screwed over on the deal. :smokin:

Carl got screwed over, but it looks like (acoording to nascar.com) that RG will have his penalty overturned. He's has it rough the last few months. He lost over $4mil. of his own money when the Paris/Dakar Rally was cancelled this year. :borg: |

Re: NASCAR thread
I hoping one Roush cars get the pole this friday in Atanta see what Nascar would say about that.:23:

Re: NASCAR thread
OK, so Gordon got the pole (proceed with appropriate Gordon/Johnson/pole references as needed). Carl didn't qualify bad. He won't have many to get by to win a third straight (OK, proceed with Gordon/Johnson/straight jokes as needed).
Now: to more important stuff. I apparently have not been keeping up well with new automotive technology. I must now get a new, NASCAR approved and Roush built, self loosening oil cap for my car. Why? According to some Toyota hack: "On Friday, Lee White, general manager for Toyota Racing Development, told USA Today that removal of the oil cap would provide up to 21 percent more downforce and as much as 50 horsepower. He added that he fully believed the Roush team knew what it was doing going into the race to create an competitive advantage" If I can get 50 HP and 25% better dowforce at speed from an oil cap loss, then I'm all in on that deal! :borg: |

Now, now...they seem to do that just fine all by themselves. They need help wiht that about as much as Hendrat cars need finishing waaaayyy back! :borg: |
Re: NASCAR thread
Every person that I have heard on tv and in the press all say that the removal of the cap does reduce the drag on the car. Even the old timers said they use to do something similar in their days. As for the increase in hp, I'm not buying that statement.
For some reason I believe Roush and the Edwards team that they did not intentionally remove the cap. Perhaps if they investigate it further they may be able to determain that there was a defect in the piece. As for the race, it's a nice 1-2 at the start for Hendricks with Gordon and Earnhardt.(notice the lack of the word pole here, you sick Gordon haters. LOL) My prediction of the top 5 are, 1. Jeff Gordon(of course) 2. Carl Edwards(with or without a cap the dude is hot) 3. Kyle Busch(Hoping he finds the wall) 4. Ryan Newman(just a hunch) 5. Earnhardt Jr.( He'll get even better learning from Gordon & Johnson):worship: |
Re: NASCAR thread
I know I'm a week late here but my internet was turned off for a week cause I moved but when Carls tire rolled out in the grass last week, he didn't get penalized for it but I thought it was a godd call cause it wasn't their fault. Now I didn't hear anything complaining about it in the news or no polls about it but if that were to happen to JJ or JG, people would complain about it cause it was a Hendrick car.

Leave it to those Toyo guys to figure out where we American's get our superior horsepower. Now, if they find the muffler bearings, we are screwed. No wait, the ricer guys already know about them!:3amin: |
