I have to agree with you on that one!!!! Just wait though, when one of the Hendricks boys win, people will say NASCAR let them win cause they haven't won in a while.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

That would have been LAST SEASON!

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Oh I see how that works now. Hendricks is not winning so Nascar has switched allegence and is now bed partners with Roush and Toyota. Hmm, I bet your favorite author is Michael Meyers. :23: (j/k)

Re: NASCAR thread
 

You mean Mike Meyers the serial killer from 'Halloween'? Sure, I like his work...in the first movie! And don't even bring up that sucky relaunch last year.
But I digress...you obviously missed the memo alerting fans that Toyota now pays NASCAR much better that Rick or Jack or any of the other teams is.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Darrell Waltrip has a man-fetish for Kyle Busch. Have you guys noticed how often Waltrip talks about that punk? It took 5 seconds--the very first sentence he uttered--for Waltrip to mention the Shrub on last Sunday's broadcast. To say that Toyota isn't greasing Fox's palms to constantly talk about them and their drivers is just delusional. :anger:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

That's all right. When Nextel/Sprint goes belly up in a year or two you can probably look forward to the series being called the Toyota Invitational Cup.
Can we go Trans Am racing or something now?

Re: NASCAR thread
 

There's always NHRA with a new Ford Hemi Nitro Engine & Legend John Force!!:3amin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

You never know. Joe Gibbs sold out to Toyota. Who's to say that John Force won't as well. It would not surprise me to see Toyota running in the NHRA in the near future. I sure hope not. It's bad enough in Nascar with them there. :frown:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

News Flash.....

They have been there for a couple of years (or at least the bodies on funny cars have). Up until late last year, all the Nitro engines were a derivative of the Mopar hemi. Ford, John Force Racing lead by John Medlin have designed from the ground up a Ford Nitro motor!! Check it out.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Goes to show what I know in NHRA. I've only been to one event in my life and really don't follow it on tv either. Other than John Force I couln't tell you a current person in NHRA. I'd rather be on the track than watch it.

For me I find racers making left turns all day more exciting than racers going in a straight line for a 1/4 mile. LOL

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Tonight is the Food City Race Night here in Kingsport. Haven't heard what drivers are there. I know that if you want tickets, you can have any and all you want. With last August's race being such a sleeper at Bristol due to the track re-confirguration, no one is interested in sitting in the cold watching them turn left. I put my money where my mouth is and didn't take my season tickets. Nascar, Brian France, COT & vast amounts of $$$$$ have ruined a once proud, popular & exciting sport. If you would like to come Sunday, I can help direct you to good parking for easy exit after the snooze- I mean race. I am sure that you can get a real deal on tickets.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I think the only NASCAR race I'd be interested in seeing live anymore are the trucks cuz at least they beat and bang into each other. Races are a little short but they're a heck of a lot more exciting than the Cup cars....

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Today race I'am taking the Biff #16

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I sometimes wonder what kind of weed these announcers are smoking when they make a pick for who could win the race. I was in the kitchen and I heard one of the announcers say David Reutimann. Give me a break. If that guy wins 1 Cup race in his whole career he'll be lucky. :smokin:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Great finish, I couldn't be more satisfied. :23:

NO toyota in the top 3. :worship:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I think that was FOX-SPORTS best race !!!!!! WALTRIP could not TALK!!!:CHEERS: :yeh: :THUMBSUP:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

I wonder why he was even there? It was nice not having him rave on and on about the Toyotas though. We all know that's all he talks about.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

That was pathetic having to listen to Waltrip. It was like watching those Mucus commercials with that fat flem ball guy making a home in his lungs. That was a great finish to the race. Nice to see a cool guy like Jeff Burton win.

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Awesome race. Nice to see Stewart and Busch wreck those Toyota's.

It was nice to see a class guy like Jeff Burtin win the race. To bad he don't race for Hendricks. :23:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Ummm...then he probably WOULDN'T have won...


But I do agree on the Toyota assessment...seeing Tony smack another wall makes me wonder when they'll figure out that they need to take the big magnets out of the doors...or not...

:borg:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

:agree: :23: :CHEERS:

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Yea good race, im glad burton won!! Too bad Jarret couldnt get a decent race in to finish off his career.. =(

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Normally I would agree with you on Jarrett. But once he switced over to Toyota screw him. What a way to tarnish a great legacy that he created. I'm glad he sucked while with Toyota. :)

Re: NASCAR thread
 

Yeah but the thing is, for some reason ,he wasn't doing that great with Yates towards the end either though.
