Re: NASCAR thread
Yeah, so does that mean, then, that Carl's real issue is that he's upset because his teamates won't come and congratulate him after he wins, or is he saying that he wants to be in Dale Jrs. shoes?

Re: NASCAR thread
I think he just wants the team drivers to get along better and actually talk to each other.

If I was wanting a ride --------- getting the deal Jr has would be great. You can't argue with the record HMS has the last few years. Working for Jack is bad because NASCAR seems to poop on him every chance they get. I don't mean anything bad by this but I just don't see Carl as a BIG "team player". I don't think multi teams are good anyway, I say 2 at the most.

Perhaps it's not a team issue but a Carl Edwards problem instead. I've lost a lot of respect for him this past year. Matt Kenseth is an excellent driver and has shown a lot of class in this issue. To bad Matt don't drive for a class organization like Hendricks. Sorry Jack Roush, selling out to the Red Sox lost me. LOL |

Re: NASCAR thread
Carl didn't sew up the championship today and what did they have ---- like a thousand cautions. Nice to see a first time weiner but too bad he's driving a ricemobile.

Re: NASCAR thread
We have met and talked with him a couple of times in Charlotte. Very humble and likeable guy.

Re: NASCAR thread
I agree on Dave, too bad he didn't make the race today.
Man what a wild end to the race. Jr just can't catch a break and JJ would have been lucky to have won without that wheel falling off Jr's car. Carl would have been hard to hold off.

Re: NASCAR thread
Of course it was orders from the head cheese (TE) not to tighten his lugs at the end. Can't have Dale winning and showing her up.

Re: NASCAR thread
That was some crazy stuff with Jr's wheel.
Like it wasn't even tightened on. |

Re: NASCAR thread
Maybe the center busted out of it.
I have seen it happen at Bristol.

Re: NASCAR thread
I'm waiting to hear if it was lugs of a broken wheel center, but either way it was a bizarre ending to a more bizarre race. I've never seen a car run out of gas on a restart at the end of the race. How weird was that? Hated to see JJ get handed a win, and was sure that Cark ot Matt could've improved their positions with the green/white ending...

Re: NASCAR thread
No doubt that Johnson had one handed to him. However, great drivers and teams find a way to put themselves in a position to win if something just like yesterdays race happens.

Re: NASCAR thread
Contaminated fuel? NASCAR is reporting that 'more than 2, but less than 43' cars were affected by the contaminated fuel that led to the troubled restart than affected many of the cars when th elead car stumbled. One of the cars tested that had contaminated water in the fuel system included race winner Jimmy Johnson. No foul play is suspected.

Nascar failed to notify teams that this was the first race whereby the COT cars would experiment with hydrogen fuel supply!! It will be interesting to see what the cause of this was. Not sure that I ever remember this happening in the past. Or maybe this is the way to bring in the newest Sponsor- HEET gas water remover!!!

Re: NASCAR thread
Juan Problem Monyoya very nearly had the poll, but got beaten out at the last minute.
If you really want to read some soap opera grade 'stuff' check out Bruton Smiths moves on NHIS, he's buying it out and probably going to move one of his NHIS races to his other track in Vegas. Rumor has it that he wants to put the season ender in Vegas and then have the banquet in Sin City...and he's got the pull to make it happen. Pass the popcorn...this one's gonna be interesting. Also, look for Bill Davis Racing to fold. Bill Davis Trucking has filed for bankrupcy protection, and Villeneuve (with his business partner) has made an offer for the team. (More popcorn, please...)
