Re: NASCAR thread
That's what NASCAR needs to spice things up. From now on drivers have to text message during the race, avoid (or not) obstacles on the track, and race around potholes purposely placed on the tracks.
I can see it now...the Road Kill 500!

Re: NASCAR thread
The Nationwide COT will se the Mustang for Ford and the Challenger for Dodge. I think this is great for the sport. GM, on the other hand, has chosen to stick with the Impala, while NASCAR wanted to see the Camaro on the track. I think that it would have been a real shot in the arm for the second tier series to have all three domestic manufacturers running their pony car offerings...even while Toyota runs the Camry...a car everyone buys and no one cares about.

Re: NASCAR thread
For the Kyle Busch haters. The driver I used to help (before I took the current job) beat Kyle Wednesday night at Williams Grove Speedway (1/2 clay). I do have to give Kyle credit though. He jumped into a car he had never driven at a track he never raced, finished 2nd in the feature, and yes he raced clean.

A side note to the race in Watkins Glen: whether one is a hater of Jeff Gordon or not, I'm glad he is ok, that was one heck of a wreck. I was watching the race with some friends and one of them is a huge hater of Gordon. He was hooping and hollering over the accident. This guy was also a hater of Dale Sr. and I remember the excitement he had over Earnhardt in his wreck in 01 at Daytona; he sure wasn't hooting and hollering when he didn't get out of that car and I have the same feeling that if Gordon didn't walk out of that car he'd have felt like an idiot all over again. I personally am not into the wrecks. Those are still humans in a car going up to 200mph and even with all the safety features in the cars it has the potential to be their last race. If their going to get taken out of a race I'd rather see it from a mechanical failure, pit mistake, or just flat out get beat. I wouln't wish that type of wreck on any driver including both Bush brothers and anyone driving a Toyota. |

Re: NASCAR thread
I'm glad they shut up about Vickers not "closing the deal". They need some better weather guessers in MI.

Re: NASCAR thread
0% chance of rain, and they get red flagged for rain?!?
It'll be a shame, but interesting when the time for the 'chase' comes around and Kyle doesn't get in, Jr. doesn't get in and the guy with the most victories this season (so far...Mark) doesn't get in. Think NASCAR will circle the wagons and re-think the whole deal?

Kyle and Jr. don't belong in the chase, they have not been that great this year. Yes, it would be a shame for Martin but then again his team should have had a little more sense this past Sunday. I couldn't believe what I was hearing at the race when his team decided to go for it. Jimmy Johnson had nothing to lose, he's locked in the points, same for Gordon, but not his team. I just got back today from Michigan this past weekend. As usual I love MIS. If your looking for wrecks this is not usually the place. But they do run 3 and 4 wide and hit close to 200mph. You can see the whole track from most seats above row 15 anywhere. As usual, Kyle in his own words admitted "I'm complaining, whining, and a crybaby. Shut up you flappy eared jack azz, it's the last lap and that's called racing. |

Re: NASCAR thread
Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Jr. fan, and certaily not a Kyle fan, but I think NASCAR certainly wants them both in the chase. It's good for the ratings as far as they are concerned, regarless of whether they deserve it (they don't). To see the three Roush cars in makes me happy, but I certainly want to see Mark in there. I think he does deserve to be in the chase, moreso than some that are...but it's their rules...until they decide to change them again!

Re: NASCAR thread
Ford Racing has gone through the official NASCAR submission and approval process for the new car, and, once templates are finalized, production of Mustang parts will start so teams can build the first cars for testing later this fall. The 2010 Ford Mustang will join the 2010 Fusion (Sprint Cup) and the 2009 Ford F-Series (Camping World Truck Series) as Ford’s competitive entries in NASCAR’s three major professional series. Since its debut in 1964, Mustang has compiled more than 2,000 professional racing victories in NHRA, Grand-Am, IMSA, SCCA, NMRA and NMCA, as well as other racing series. |

Re: NASCAR thread
Nice to see the Roush 1-2 in the N'Wide series last night. Even better to see whinny baby Busch down 55 laps. (Taurus pace car with numerous Mustang support cars were a bonus)
Congrats to Mark on getting the pose, as well as Greg being on the outside pole (by .022 seconds! ). Should make for a good race tonight. NASCAR annouced that they were looking at fuel injection for the cars!?! Sould be ready about the same time we're using flux capacitors fueled by our Mr. Fusion!

Re: NASCAR thread
Awsome finish for Carl in the N'Wide race. Felt sorry for Marcus, who only made one mistake all day...last corner, last lap. Besides that, I REALLY enjoyed Kyles 10th place finish after trying to get in where he didn't belong!
Also, they announced that the NW COT will run 4 races next year, so here come the NAStangs!

Re: NASCAR thread
I don't like the grill decal on the mustang. It just doesn't look right to me.

Re: NASCAR thread
NationWide Car Of Tomorrow. When the Sprint Cup cars went to their newest bodystyle change they called it the Car Of Tomorrow. This is the newest bodystyle change to the NationWide series (1 step below Cup) so I guess their folowing suit with the name.
