Did you say the same thing about Mark Martin in yesterdays race?

No doubt it was driver error. But name me one driver on that track who has never had that happen to him.

Guess I'll be eating crow from most of you this week.

birdman941 · 03-02-2008, 08:03 PM

Didn't see yesterday's race.
Mark Martin is, and always has been a class act.
The same can never be said for Jeffy.

I couldn't agree with you more about Mark Martin being a class act. But I couldn't disagree with you more about Gordon not being one. Not many are in Marks league of class but Gordon is far from being a dirty or classless driver.

With all of that said, Jr. really started the whole chain of events.

birdman941 · 03-02-2008, 08:17 PM

Ford won.
That's all that matters.
Way to go Carl.

G · 03-02-2008, 08:23 PM

Jeffy was racing hard and made a mistake. He admitted to it

and was the one to pay the big price for his attempt.

I'd say it's just racing on this one.

no toyota again --- that's the main thing.

falcongtho3 · 03-02-2008, 08:23 PM

It's backflip time!!!

Who hoo Carl!!! Way to take the points lead!

Jeff is obviously not my favorite person right now, but I'm not so sure that Jr. wasn't as much at fault for some of it when he got that bad start. Really liked the way that JJs car ran today, he needs to run it the rest of the season.

What Toyotas?

Azure Blurr · 03-02-2008, 09:05 PM

ylo called it!

Tony to a hard hit. He won't be worth a sht the rest of the week. Hate to see what happened to JG and Matt. Two contenders for sure. But Jeff did take "some of the blame".

You got that right! and Ford leads car points to!

falcongtho3 · 03-03-2008, 07:18 AM

Uh, oh! Carls points lead may be in jeopardy. Something about the oil jug?

I beg to differ. As a long time Mark Martin fan, when you tell your fans for a year that you are retiring and plan to stay on with the same owner/manufacturer to run the trucks, then bolt to a Chebby, that's not my definition of class. Prior to that act of treason, he was the best. My opinion of him is kind of like the guy who's wife ran off with the next door neighbor. When he sucks, I'm glad he's gone, when he does well I get begin to really dislike him. All you Jr. fans know a little about what it's like, except he stayed in the same manufacturer's car. Imagine he went to Toyota & that would be about the same.

Ask me about my thoughts about Bill Elliott & Dale Jarrett !!

Don't worry, I will get over it, but I don't have to like it!!

ylopony · 03-03-2008, 10:15 AM

Hmmm Roush Racing with a Nascar violation. I wonder what the forum would be like if it were from the Hendricks camp. Oh wait, I think I can find some of the responses from last year.

Un Mark Bill Elliott is with Wood brothers has part time driver that's a Ford race team and Dale Jarrett has two more races then he's going back to his Ford Dealership to run it and work for ESPN to.

Umm...how's this?

I did post it up, and it looks like the same issues plagued a number of the Nationwide cars as well. I doubt he'll see his crew chief suspended or a mega-fine (for further reference see: Hendrick Racing, 2007 Racing season)

I agree that this problem was found in several other cars in the Nationwide circuit. Nor do I feel that Carl Edwards, his team, nor his crew chief deserve to be penalized for this.

But with that said, again if it were a Hendricks car most of you would be shouting for huge fines, suspensions, and points docked.

Mark is retired from the full schedule in ALL of the series in which he runs. He would still be with Jack and FORD if Jack wanted a development program in cup, Jack decided it did not fit his business model (to have a shared ride)and wanted full season drivers. I agree with Jack's decision and also support the part-time work Mark does now. It's hard to argue with the results from Roush Racing this year.

I think if you plan to have a favorite driver, you better get used to seeing them in OTHER make cars. My other fav besides Mark is also in a Chevy now.

I would not complain! I think no matter who gets caught --- HMS should get fined.

This week in hot Atanta I'am taking Carl #99 his on a roll.

bris09 · 03-05-2008, 08:25 PM

Carl gets 100 points docked plus loses the 10 points earned toward the chase. Causing him to drop to seventh in the standings and Rousch is fined $100,000 along with the crew chief is suspended for six weeks.

Seems a little harsh doesn't it.

it's because it's the COT! No body messes with the COT. What I don't understand is, didn't it go thru a pre-race inspection? Didn't they find all that stuff before the race?
