Re: NASCAR thread
Well that sucked. I can't think of a worse way to lose than a tie-breaker. I'll stick with Carl, Tony can be a Gordon/Johnson wanna be for the rest of his life...and to me he'll always be StewRat...

Re: NASCAR thread
^^ He'll always be a dirty driver who would "wreck his own mom to win the championship". Carl is a Class act and a great driver, I've been saying that for years, but people seem to hate him for some reason. Carl will win one, and when he does, you can count on me being one of the first to buy his championship stuff. Still, the burnout him and stenhouse did yesterday was epic!!!

Re: NASCAR thread
Stewart said he'd wreck his own mother to win the championship. If edwards had been leading, I can put a $1000 down that stewart would have spun or tapped him. That's why Edwards said he'll race him the way he races me. I just can't stand Stewarts overly cocky attitude he has had in the chase, THAT is being a sore winner. I do give respect though, was not being a sore winner in the victory celeberation which I was surprised at. Someone at nascar said it best, it was that 1 pass stewart made on burton a few weeks back that won the championship...

Re: NASCAR thread
Any one else know why he is called "Smoke"?
Has anyone ever seen him with a female? I know I have never seen a picture of him with a "girlfriend" or female. And did he not punch a female in the face? "Wreck his own mother" Wonder if there is a connection? Just saying..........

Re: NASCAR thread
It sucks that Carl had a better overall record over the course of the season,
and came in second. I guess the rules is the rules. I will say one thing, for the First time in my life, I am proud to be a NASCAR fan. Why? Watch!

Re: NASCAR thread
A lot has been said about that over the last day, but no one has pointed out that those are the same people who cheered greatly when the invocation was given or the national anthem was played...now that's some thing to compare and contrast!

Re: NASCAR thread
you have to respect stewart on the race track because he is a very talented driver but as a person...HA...he will never get any respect from me. His arrogant attitude alone makes me question how anyone in their right mind could be a fan of his. It was very disappointing to see stewart take home the championship in homestead. How does a man that didn't win and wasn't even competitive in the regular season win half of the chase races? Makes you wonder?? I told my dad with about 3 or 4 races left that it wouldn't surprise me if stewart won. After all his engines are supplied by the biggest crook in nascar in my book. RICK HENDRICK! I hope Carl wins one next year and every year after that. Die Hard Ford Fan To The Very End! I will say that is was funny seeing Michelle Obama having to answer a question about who she thought would win the championship...HaHa...the announcer said .... are you gonna pick Carl because he promotes good health or stewart because he drives a chevy...haha....great poke at the government and especially government motors!

Re: NASCAR thread
This is why I hate the current format. Get rid of the top 35 lock in, the chase, and stop those qualified from parking after a few laps. Connect the pay out to the laps run, AGAIN.
Congrats, to Tony for an amazing chase. I don't know why his cars ran so well but it must not have been easy to find.  They would have found something on a Jack Roush car. I'm not a Carl Edwards fan so I'm not really upset about that part of this season. I hope Biff and Matt have a better season and can win a championship for Jack and Ford.

Every vehicle I own has been and will be a Ford but Harvick is my driver lol. Has been since his Busch days so no band jumper here. I was an Earnhardt fan. He used to drive a Ford maybe that counts lol. I hated the Chase when it was first implemented but I think they got it right with this new point system. The racing is better and closer now than its ever been. My only complaint which may get fixed totally with fuel injection next year is the two car tango at the superspeedways. Start and parks are here to stay. Thats how small teams stay in business and fund the full races they run. Top 35 rewards teams for running full seasons and gives big name sponsors confidence their car will make the show, which keeps them in the sport. I think Stewart was cocky but he said what he was gonna do and backed it up. Nothing wrong with a little trash talk. Makes the sport better IMO

Re: NASCAR thread
The ONLY way tandem drafting at dega and daytona will be gone is when they remove the restrictor plates, and I can't see that ever happening sadly

Re: NASCAR thread
They've been working at Daytona to adjust the spoiler and whatever restrictor plate they'll be making work on the new FI engines to break up the tandem drafts. It'll be interesting to see in a few months what they've managed to come up with. The two car trains don't make for exciting racing to watch, but I'm sure it's no less than sheer terror for the drivers.

Re: NASCAR thread
All cars are restricted in power, the teams draft to get speed, without it, we would be watching cars going on a 2.5 mile track at 140mph... The tandem drafting, imo, is more exciting than the huge line drafts. I would love the restrictor plates to be removed, nascar has proved on several incidents that the cars are INCREDIBLY safe

Re: NASCAR thread
They were running over 200mph at Daytona with single cars in the test.

Re: NASCAR thread
Just saw it on ESPN. Wow! His circumstances when he 'left' Roush weren't much better. Wonder if anyone will bring him on board? Maybe he and Kyle should form their own 'Anger Management' team?

Re: NASCAR thread
2 shrubs in one pot.
AT least Roger has a set. Too bad Roush already has one oil sponsor, Kenseth and Ragan need sponsorship.

Re: NASCAR thread
It sucks to see such behavior out of a former champion. This might be a second chance for Sam Hornish. He seems like a really good guy.
Maybe Joe can fire shrub and really make this a good week. The formal announcement should be tomorrow and he will probably have another ride before the new year. Both of the Busch brothers are exceptional drivers; if they didn't have mental problems they could be great. http://nascar.speedtv.com/article/cu...moX4Y.facebook

I bet Shells kicking themselves for dropping Harvick. I agree...Gibbs needs to grow a set now. Those idiots are going nowhere in this sport acting like brats.

Re: NASCAR thread
Wow... I could have seen Joe Gibbs kicking Kyle, but Kurt from Penske? Nothing is formal until officially announced, remember in July when everyone saying it was "confirmed" Edwards would be going to Gibbs? I'll wait for the official annoucement, I can see him replacing Vickers in Team redbull though...
