Re: NASCAR thread

That's three Hendrick minions out in one fell swoop. I'm quite sure the NASCAR brain trust (oxymoron?) is jumping out of skyscrapers about now.
As much as I don't really car for Brad, at least he's in and the three Chebby guys are out...

Agree, guess they will have to change the Chase format again so it won't happen next year!!

I was thinking the same thing when I saw Junior and Johnson were out.

Anyone else see a provisional spot for each round in the future?

Re: NASCAR thread

haha, you guys are harsh. I was hoping Jr. would pull out a win but could care less about the 48. However, would pull for Jr. if he was at Hendrick or somewhere else.

I just want 4 great drivers in the last race and all 4 being extremely equal, fighting for the the win. Not 1 great driver and 3 lame ducks. Given this it appears as though the 4, 24, 2 and 22 would make the best show but not a fan of the latter 2.

Bummer about the 18, hate to see something like that ruin his chances.

Brad is just a tool, his actions last week back everything up that I thought about him. He can serve it up, but cannot take the same.Love the radio telling his guys to be ready after the race, I suspect he wanted them to protect him after he used his car to fight with. Little man he is...

I expect the 22 and the 2 to be taken out very soon, Danica owes the 22.

Re: NASCAR thread

So they threw a race and a hockey game broke out?
Harvick certainly showed what a 'man' he is.
I wonder if Gordon is enjoying all the crow he gets to eat after realizing how not guilty Brad really is in the whole deal.

Re: NASCAR thread

After seeing the video, it didn't really look that bad to me. I guarantee you if Kyle Bush had that same chance to make a move like that, he'd do it. I liked how Harvick spun Keselowski around and pushed him towards the fight. Gordon is such a pussy anyway.

Re: NASCAR thread

Couple of points from the race.

1. I am a Gordon fan and I don't feel that Brad did anything wrong.

2. Jef went over to "talk" to Brad, and good ole fart sniffing, soft shoed, no back bone Harvick instigated the whole brawl by pushing Azzlowski in the back so he would appear to be coming after Gordon.

3. Azzlowski needs to be taken out of contention in the next race by a non-er (someone no vying for the championship) to put Azzlowski back in his place.

4. Congratulations to NASCAR, you guys screwed the racing up so bad over the past 10 years that you now had to resort to making the post race actions more exciting than the on track racing. SMH. I really don't know why I bother watching as few laps as I do since ASSCAR just aint the same any more....

5. At this point I could care less who wins the championship as it is all a bunch of high school drama queens out there with their eye on the prize.

Heard the perfect take on this Chase for the Cup from Fox Sports before the truck race Friday night.

As a Harvick fan for at least 14 years, I can't believe this day has come. I think the best driver and car won the chase. No denying it.

Re: NASCAR thread

I caught the last 40 laps of the race which was the perfect time to start watching it. I wouldn't be surprised if Logano goes postal on his pit crew. That was pretty exciting watching the last few restarts. Could'nt ask for a better finish to the season than that.

Re: NASCAR thread

Wow, there really is a Harvick fan on here. Congrats to him and his crew and fan(s). Now we can wait and see how NASCAR tries to change the chase format...again...so Jr. could actually win it all...

After hearing yet another example of Patriots cheating I can't wait for Nascar to return. I take the 'messing with the football' the same kind of severe altercation Nascar teams get when messing with Fuel additives. Park the Patriots!

I can't wait either. I'm ready. Curious to see if the rule change will fix aero push. Also curious to see how the new pit cameras are going to work.

Re: NASCAR thread

So Gordon is going to start winding it down? Wonder what's next? Fill in driver? Team owner?

Chase Elliot. I think he's running a few races with Hendrick this season.

Yup. Chase Elliott will fill the seat in '16. Don't be surprised to see Gordon still run quite a few races,just not a full schedule.

Re: NASCAR thread

Chase will do well in the 24; Gordon will be focusing on team ownership for his kid's racing endeavors... I have always wondered if he will just quietly walk away or join the ranks of commentators.

Re: NASCAR thread

Gordon is only gonna be 44 this year. With that guys talent, he'll be a threat to win races at 50, where most drivers are washed up and just turning in laps. He only needs 12 more wins and he passes David Pearson for 2nd most wins. I'm not a Gordon fan at all, but I still think he'll be around awhile.

Re: NASCAR thread

think he has frustration with the chase and how it has probably cost him a championship or two, but his ongoing back issues are probably something that figures in more than he might want to admit.
