I'd say DW has something else up Kyle's azz. :31:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I'll take that ending. It don't get much better than the fan pick winning. :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I can handle Kasey Kahne winning. I'll drink Budweiser when money is tight and I sell insurance for one of his major sponsors. :)

Re: NASCAR thread
 

That's incredible that Kahne won with no changes during that pitstop. Good for him. He's a cool driver. Have'nt heard much from him this year. Would have been nice if Biffle had won. He's been non-existant the past couple years.

The Roush boys are back!!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

To bad Jr didnt win huh.:23: Two more years of his no winning and he wont even be in the race.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Glad to hear Casey won. It's about time he got a good break, and being the fan vote-in...even better. Shows he deserved to be in there.

Now...let's get ready for 'Super Race Holiday', next weekend!!!

Go Roush!

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I like Jr. but I'm not a jump on the bandwagon fan of his because of his father. I really was indifferent with his father. I do like Jr though more because of his class as a driver, and for the fact he joined the Hendricks team. As for not being in the race, Jr. can finish last in every race for the next 5 years and the fans will always vote him in.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Jr. is 10 x the driver his old man was.
Being a clean driver and a gentleman is something that could not be said about Sr.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

There are 3 major differences between Jr and his Dad:

1. The era of racing. Modern era only compared to Dad seeing the end of stock cars and the evolution of Grand National.

2. Age of success. One was assured success from pre-teen years versus a career formed from great financial and personal sacrifice.

3. Aggressiveness. A deep desire to win versus a physical requirement to win.

Jr is a good guy who drives a race car for his job. Sr is the guy you get compared to when you do something extraordinary on the race track (good or bad). He was the best of his time; Dale Sr is treated as a God of racing by some and bitterly hated by others. The thing I liked about him was he didn't care what people thought, he just cared that you thought something.

Other than the 3 differences above, they are the same. :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

:stupid: :yes:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Now I'm going to sticking up for Kyle Bush for a second. A friend of mine were talking about this the other day. Kyle Bush and Dale Sr has the exact same attitude when racing. In it too win, no matter if that means moving someone out of the way or putting them in the wall. And yes, Dale Sr. did put people in the wall. Why is it OK for someone like Dale Sr. to think and act this way but when someone like Kyle does the same thing he is a big azz. People are always complaining these days that the drivers can't show any emotion anymore cause they will get penalized and fined for it. Now that we finally have a driver like that, they complain about. I don't evenb mind if Kyle wins now cause I like to see all the people get pissy about it.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

lol. Out of all the crazy comments in this thread thats the craziest.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

This is the big reason why I was not a big Dale Sr. fan nor am I a Kyle Busch fan. I did not like seeing Earnhardt knock someone in the wall at 195mph nor do I like seeing it in Busch. Pass the guy with patience and with talent. It does not take a lot of talent to knock someone out of the race. I'm not saying that these two drivers did not or do not have talent, Sr was a great driver and Busch has all the makings to be one as well.

To me an excellent champion and the best of all time in my opinion was Richard Petty. Sure he had a few incidents on the track. It's impossible to never be involved in something. However, it was his skill that won out most of the time, not his ramming the other car into the wall for the win.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Amen brother.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I never liked Dale Sr. myself for that reason. It just seems funny that even some of the Earnhardt fans thinks that it was alright for him to race like that but noone else can.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I'm not sure you guys ever really watched Sr. drive. He was patient, you see him come up behind you going faster and he gave a sufficient amount of time for you to figure out you need to move over. If you didn't and he had time you would get a reminder with the chrome horn. If you continue to hold him up, you got what you asked for. :smack:

BigEars is nothing like that, he is driving at 110% all the time and could have won MANY more races if he would calm down. He needs to watch a few hours of David Pearson, Fred Lorenzen, and Joe Weatherly to see how it's done. I don't mind a fearless driver but brainless is another matter. :smokin:

When I first started racing flat-track I wrecked a few times and broke a few things while leading. My Dad was the owner and he put another (slower) rider on the bike, he finished every race and won about half the time. I got the message but had to earn that ride back, shrub is an incredible driver who needs to slow down to go faster. The thing is, he stays in the news and makes money so he keeps his ride and needs to wheelbarrow the money to the bank while he can. :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I can't stand him. who?











Kyle Busch

The little prick sitting on the pole. I'm beginning to wonder how one car can be so far above any other car on the track. Sorry, Kyle is not that much better than any other driver. I'm thinking even Kyle Petty can drive that car to a top 5 finish.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

yes sir, Iam going to the 600 sunday with my new GT,

I truly think it is time........Dale Jr will win Sunday nite!

I'll watch the Indy 500 just to see Danica not finish!






Big Ron :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

It'll be nice to see Danica win the 500, and Jr. DNF...as well as Shrub. Edwards for the win in the 600. Guess no one's doing the 1,100 this year.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Corrected. :23:

Heck, I'll take a Jr win, a JJ win, a Biffle win, I'll even almost take a Tony Stewart win. Just as long as that obnoxious ear flapping idiot Kyle Busch don't win. :anger:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Jealous that she has more wins than JR.?

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Here I was watching a race and a hockey...er, fight broke out! I think someone won the race. Not anyone who matters, though...


:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Your right, not anyone who matters.

Once again, he shows not only is he classless in defeat but just as classless in victory. The bowing in jest is getting old Kyle.


But the fight in the pits was interesting.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I can only hope that Kyle Busch would make a change to F1. This way we only have to look at him on American soil once a year in a race. However, without being able to bump, ram, rub, slam, and bang cars in open wheel like he does in Nascar, I doubt he will have much success.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I don't know...if Shrub ended up in F1, the level that the world hates us would escalate to the point where even the UK would declare a Jihad on us in retaliation for dumping such a 'quality' person on thier door step!

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Wouldn't his ears slow him down in a open wheel car?

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I know you didn't mean it that way but................... I have done a bunch of traveling and don't see this hatred for the US. I see it more at home than when I'm on foreign soil. This is like fuel prices being driven up by ratbastid speculators when the facts should stabilize GAS prices. The US is loved by some, respected by most, and feared by those who mean evil. Those are the facts on this Memorial Day. Shrub could be bad for foreign relations. :smokin:

Are there any races today? :23:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Yep, the Danica 500 is on right now.

Oddly enough, there has been a lot of talk of Patrick (surprised, right?), a little mention of Sarah Fischer (especially her ooops) and little or no mention of the Milka Juno (right name, right?). What's really surprised me is that there has been little or no talk of the actual cars. No specs, no engine information, chassis info, nothing. Three girls, a bunch of guys...all driving...something!?!?

The American haters is just how the media likes to play up how we're percieved by the sandy part of the world...supposedly. In my (albeit limited)overseas travels, I've had no problems. Even in the non-English speaking corners of the world.

But...if they wanted to hate us...dropping Dumbo onto them would certainly give 'em good reason.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Congrats to Casey on a win. He deserves it, a first class guy.
Decent run by Biff, and Matt.
Carl...what? Couldn't pony up for one more gallon of gas?

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Your right, Casey is a class act all the way. And how can anyone not like Biff, great job by him as well. However, you did fail to give props to a couple of the Henricks boys(Gordon, Jr.) for a job well done. :)

On to another subject. How many of you have a reaction to Denny Hamlins comments after the race(Nationwide on Saturday) why he tore the fender up on Brad Keselowski's fender during a caution. Granted Brad tapped him a little to hard in the rear with a caution venting his anger, but he didn't tear up the car like Denny did.

But Denny's comments were, that he didn't like his racing hard. He cried about his blocking, and refusing to get out of the way. Denny's words were "we don't do that here and he better learn". Denny you :butt: he was on the same lap as you, in front of you, and trying to keep you back to try and win a race. Being a lap down is one thing, but when he's in second and your in third, that is called racing you ignorant idiot. This whole team of JGR is something else. Denny Hamlin and Kyle Busch are making Tony Stewart look like Mr. Rogers lately.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

You are righ tabout the Nationwide race. Seeing the attitiudes that came out don't bode well for 'friendly' racing the rest of the year.
Apparently Stewrat stormed off to the trailer in a tizzy after his finish last night. I don't know if he was just that mad at himself, or madder because he had no one else to pin it on.

Props to HMS? Sure. Good finish, Jimmie! Keep up the good work, and how about that Chevy powerplant?!?

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Dover this weekend Iam taking Carl 99# and last weekend for DW and Fox.:worship:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Not a bad Nationwide day for Carl and Biff. :worship:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Didn't see it, I'll have to check the webiste for the results. Hope this translates into a good day in the Cup race. Glad to see Biff on the pole for todays race, which is nothing like the HMS drivers who'd rather take a pole.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I was very happy with the results of the race 2nd thru 5th. Once again, Dumbo wins. I'm beginning to think that Nascar needs to raise the :bs: flag and take a look at the cars Busch is driving.

I'll admit I can't stand him, but there is no way any one driver is that dominate in Nascar these days. He's this way in both the Natiowide and the Cup.The cars are to equal to each other. They can't tamper with them, and sorry, Kyle Busch is not that much better of a driver than Jeff Gordon, Matt Kenseth, Carl Edwards, and others. The cars he drivers are literally blowing out the field. Time to take a look at it Nascar. ( or perhaps Toyletta has paid Nascar off that much to ignore it).

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I'll agree with positions 2-3-4, as well as the need to look into the JGR cars. Stewrat, when he's not on a flat or into the wall, can be as strong as the big eared goofball. Word on the street (track?) is that the 'Yotas are putting out 15-20 hp more than the domestic branded cars.

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Hey now, the car that finished in 5th is the driver that 2-4 wish they could be. :23:

I've heard the same rumors about the JGR Toyletta's and the hp. These cars are not only winning in both the Nationwide and the Cup, they are blowing everyone else away. Busch, Hamlin, and Stewart are good(but still azz's) drivers, but they are not this dominate. Even Roush a few years ago and Hendricks last year when they were racking up the wins were not this decisive and dominate. Something is not right here.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

The best part of the race was when the three clowns in the booth admitted that the only competition for JGR and The Shrub appears to be Roush-Fenway because Jack Roush isn't going to sit idly by since he doesn't like Toyota! How can you not like Roush when he publically says he hates Toyota? :hail1:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

NASCAR is so worried about that dang wing they're missing the illegal motors in the foreign cars. They didn't notice when BigEars was faster on the straight at Lowe's than John Force's car with Mike Neff cooking some Goodyears. :23:

Now...lemme get this straight (not Gordon straight, that's an oxymoron), the guys that finished 2, 3, and 4 would actually want to be 5th? Yeah, that's GM style thinking...
