Pretty much intentionally wrecking somebody is wrong regardless of reason. It don't matter who does it. I've been tempted in Karts or Legends but never have done it. I've be pushed around some and have done more than my share of pushing back but have never intentionally wrecked anyone.

Re: NASCAR thread
The 26 team at Roush is a testing team. They are to try stuff when the "top teams" can't afford to. That's why Johnny Benson left years ago. So compairing stats is a little unfair.
The whole deal with tally was caused by the yellow line rule. Carl wanted back down and brad couldn't go below the line and all hell broke loose. Same thing at Daytone between the !4 and the 18 last year. If it was up to me I bulldoze both those tracks and replace them with short tracks like bristol. However the real loosers in all this are all the other teams that got caught up in the aftermath. Racing is expensive enough and nothing worse for true Busch err Nationwide teams is to get the stuff wrecked by to cup "stars" playing tit for tat. |

Re: NASCAR thread
Carl didn't spinn brad at Atlanta because of the 'dega incident. He spun him because of an earlier incident in that race which was the reason he was a bazillion laps down.

Re: NASCAR thread
blame carl all you want..its the same manuever that many of have done in the past. start watching at 3:22.....all the flaps came up the rear wing caused it all. place all the same variables in that wreck but change the wing to a spoiler and you dont have any airborn cars....nascar knows it and thats why they run the spoiler now. that wing creates lift when the car is turned around..simple as that. i dont see what the problem is here. carl did what tons of drivers have done but because nascar allowed a shitty design on the car carl has to take the blame and be a jerk? its racing...its tit for tat. let them race. they did the same **** all through the 60's, 70's, and 80's and it was never an issue...why is it now? sould he have spun him? hell no....he shouldnt have....but if the car had just spun around and hit a wall would it be drawing as much criticism? hell no....the only reason is because of that wing.

Re: NASCAR thread
You know, I'm sitting here reading all these post complaining about Carl spinnind Brad out and NASCAR not policing like they did a year ago but you know what, that is how NASCAR used to be. What do you think Dale Sr. was known for. That is why he was called the intiminator. The last few years, everyone was complaining that NASCAR was too strict and they weren't letting the drivers express themselves. Now they let them and people are complaining about it. NASCAR just can't win.

i guess carl can placed in the books next to the old tony stewart, kyle busch, and dale sr. this can only mean one of 2 things for us 99 fans...he will either fizzle away and never do anything again, or he will die suddenly and become a hero. i guess its up to nascar to script it now right? haha

Re: NASCAR thread
That was a really good race. Congrats to McMurray. His new team is doing good with some big wins. He has'nt done anything for years. It makes my day when Montoya is doing well in a race and crashes and burns.

Re: NASCAR thread
he is still 11 wins behind edwards and edwards has 2 less years experience! so the answer to your question is no! look im glad the guy won...i dont hate him..but the comment about roush letting go of carl instead of jmac was just plain stupid....look at the career stats...they speak for themselves!
