NASCAR thread - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

gvervoren · 09-22-2006, 07:14 PM

What do guys and gals think of having a thread strictly about NASCAR. I know this subject can get pretty nasty sometimes though.

3150Mach1 · 09-22-2006, 07:16 PM

I am all in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

gvervoren · 09-22-2006, 07:23 PM

Who thinks Jr. will win the Championship? NOT ME!!!!! (at least I hope not). I'm thinking Kenseth or Harvick. My driver (#12) is not in the chase. I'm glad Stewart is out. He is such a hipicrit.

My wife might want it but I would probably have to throw it in the garbage on her though. LOL I hope MW does better in the Toyota then how he did this year. I think he was concentrating on his Toyota team for next year which may have dampered this season. We'll see how he does. I'm sure with him and DJ together, Both of their perfomances will be better. Not too sure on Yates Racing for next year though. Sounds like he is going to have a bunch of rookies next year.

birdman941 · 09-22-2006, 07:36 PM

Yates might get Mark Martin, but I doubt it.
I refuse to support any co. that sponsors a Toiletta.
I hope Mark martin wins the Campionship, but my money is on Kenseth.
Best crew, steady driver.

NASCAR is interesting to watch... for about two minutes, then it bears a striking resemblence to my commute home every night. OK, so those boys are driving faster, but factor in that most of the people I'm in traffic with are talking on cell phones and eating and it raises driving difficulty factor.

gvervoren · 09-22-2006, 07:52 PM

I will admit, SOME of the races get to be boring at times but I still watch it every weekend. If I know I will miss it, I tape it and watch it later. Just imagine driving your car to it's very limits and at the verge of spinning out and smashing into the wall anywhere from 500 to 1000 times in a 3-4 hour period. Not to mention sit in a car that is well over 100 degrees. I'm sure that is not easy. I know I'm not cut out to drive 1/4 inch from other cars doing 200 MPH while at the verge of spinning out. Just a little food for thought for the NASCAR haters and to the one's that say it's not a real sport. :ORANGE:

I have season tickets for Charlotte (Lowes). Will get my fix in a few weeks.

Awesome! I've only been to three races so far. Atlanta, Chicago, and Bristol. Bristol was by far the best race I have ever been to. Not a bad seat in the house. If I ever get a chance to go back, I'm definetly there. I went to the day race but would love to go the night race.

SprayMan · 09-22-2006, 08:29 PM

I think they should take off the restrictor plates and put the drivers back in control of the cars. I wonder how the younger drivers would do if they had to let out and tap the brakes going into the turns at Talledega or Daytona?

Ford4me · 09-22-2006, 08:53 PM

I have season tickets to Texas. I have been a NASCAR fan for a long time but some of the races are boring, too long. Either shorten the races or pay more money or points for leading laps and maybe finishing first at halfway. They kinda lay back on long races and race when they have too. I really like Talladega, have been going for years.

falcongtho3 · 09-22-2006, 09:05 PM

I have serious doubts about a NASCAR thread. After all we have rules against politics or religion threads and depending where you're from NASCAR is either one or both of those... :LAUGH:

But for what it's worth, my heart's on Mark but my money's on Kenseth...

G · 09-22-2006, 09:31 PM

Championship????

Martin, if it was my choice!

Harvick, because he is on FIRE right now. I didn't like him early on but he seems to have pulled his head out of his butt.

No one named Mohammed, Clinton or Allah in ASSCAR.
There is a Busch series though.

I hear Mohammed's car keeps blowing up.

Not the engine --- the whole car.

Well, they do all turn left.............
I recall NBC or some commie network trying to goad ASSCAR fans
into saying or doing anti- "Religion of Peace" (

) things.
It didn't work.

How do you figure NASCAR has anything to do with politics or religion? It's just a sport like football or baseball. I've seen plenty of threads on sports.

I was in Atlanta. I figured out what you meant about it being a religion. I'm just a little slow sometimes. LOL

Orange whip 04 · 09-23-2006, 09:03 PM

How bout lets not and say we did... Face it, NASCAR is just not as good as it use to be. Esp with the foreign makes wanting to be apart of what use to be an American tradition. Now iam afraid it is spoiling my mood to even watch it anymore. It doesnt have that special intrest anymore when American automotive makers rival each other. As Americans.... this was our sport.... Not anymore more.

Azure Blurr · 09-26-2006, 12:03 PM

Watch the first 50 laps.....ZZZZZZZZ........last 30 laps. I love the night races and Bristol is one bad azz night race. I would like more Left and Right races but I know I'm a minority on this.

mach18604 · 10-08-2006, 07:23 PM

I was in tears today... Thats all I can say.

Mine were tears of Joy. JJ did not win. Lately I am pulling for anyone except JJ and Robby Gordon.
