I would think. Last year they were bragging how cool those engines were gonna run and then about every car that had them was overheating.

I watched out of curiosity and to see the Thunderbirds. To me they were not racing....they were riding around in pairs like Olympics ice skaters. Seems like the second car had to speed up and the first car had to slow down so they could hook up to go faster.

That ain't racing.

I certainly hope this a one track phenomenon!

falcongtho3 · 03-06-2011, 07:34 AM

Big congrats to the Ford guys for taking the first four spots on the grid for todays race.

Happy to see Mark win the N/W race on Saturday, and a tip of the hat to Danica for her fourth place finish.

gvervoren · 03-06-2011, 09:19 AM

Wasn't that the best finish by any female driver in that sereiers?

falcongtho3 · 03-06-2011, 09:52 AM

Yes, the previous best was a 5th back in 1949.

gvervoren · 03-06-2011, 03:45 PM

Is it Robby Gordon's goal to spin out in every race. He seems to spin out every weekend. Most of the time it's his own fault.

falcongtho3 · 03-06-2011, 07:29 PM

How 'bout that flippin' Carl?!? Great finish for the Fords, that's two out of three for the year. Not a bad start.

How fouled up is the new points system? There have been three winners this year, and only one of them is in the top 10 in points...(at least it is Carl)...

I'm not too sure how this points system is going to work out either. I guess we'll see how it plays out as the season goes.

02mach1 · 03-24-2011, 11:35 AM

Here's best thing from Bristol,

gvervoren · 03-24-2011, 10:11 PM

Bristol sure isn't like it used to be. That's for sure.

birdman941 · 03-24-2011, 10:28 PM

Lots of fans disguised as empty seats.
You asked for it, you got it, toiletta!
Will Brian "the pansy" France ever figure it out?

falcongtho3 · 03-25-2011, 07:25 AM

I was truly shocked ot see the amount of empty seats during the cup race. It looked more like a nationwide race from that aspect. And I consider Bristol one of the more respected races, so I can imagine what races like Calif. this weekend will look like.

mach460 · 03-25-2011, 07:33 AM

People are feed up with it,it's like a soap opra every week it's the same thing.

The sales of the Bristol tickets went south when they changed the track. Not so much when Toyota or the COT car came. When they made Bristol a 2 groove racetrack, it took all the drama out of the race and turned a lot of die-hard Bristol fans away. Everyone wanted to see the bump and run and fighting. That's what the track was known for and now it's all gone.

I was at race you your right, that was some the reason,

birdman941 · 03-27-2011, 11:09 AM

I wish Roush, Petty Childress, Ganassi and the other owners
would start their own series,
No foreign mfr's allowed.
Just Ford, GM and Mopar.
No toiletta, no honduh, etc.
That way the treasonous DW would be out of a job.
Let him pound salt.
I never cared for him anyway,
but his constant brown nosing of toiletta is sickening.

Great finish today. Harvick did a masterful job of getting past Kyle and Jimmy.

It was kind of boring early in the race.

birdman941 · 03-27-2011, 06:42 PM

It's always boring when a toilet leads.
Funny how some toilets blew up this weekend

falcongtho3 · 03-27-2011, 07:26 PM

Even though I'm not a Harvick fan, I was certainly happy to see him blow by the two biggest egos on the track.
Even better, Carl has the points lead!
