I think team redbull is fully disbanding at the end of the year unless someone buys the team and all of its assets. Redbull will no longer be a sponsor in NASCAR unless I missed a new announcement.

Just because he had issues with Keslowski makes him an a**hole? He has proven to be probably the most calm person in the sport. He didn't trash talk like stewart, he didn't make threats like vickers/busches. Everyone gets ticked off, if someone sent me into a fence at 200mph, I'd be pretty p*ssed off too!

Let's bring things up from FOUR years ago, yep. People can't change and I act the exact same way as I did 4 years ago when I was 15... get real guys. I believe he actually took anger management courses to help his temper.

Re: NASCAR thread

OK, how about this year when he tried to kill Brad Kesolowski?

I will admit he's done better since then though.

Kesolowski was racing him like an a**hole, Carl did back. Carl admitted in a post race interview on that. And what Brad did to carl at Dega couldn't have killed carl? I know for a fact FANS actually got injuryed in that incident because of kesolowski.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2PZicO2P8Q
Watch at 2:50. The media likes to make Carl look like the bad guy because NASCAR HATES Roush, that has been proven time and time again. I watched that race, a few laps earlier is shown at 3:29 in the video, if you race Carl dirty, he will back, same with the Kenesth/Vickers incident. Don't call the kettle black, Brad has dumped more drivers to win in his day than carl has EVER dumped.

Re: NASCAR thread

Is it still tandem nut to butt racing? I won't watch or go to Daytona or Talladega again until they find a better way to race.

Re: NASCAR thread

They banned all driver communications, reduced rad size, cars are still doing it. The only way to fix it is NO RESTRICTOR PLATES. Personally, I prefer Tandem over the huge 20+ car trains, at least with tandems the cars are spread out more.


Side note, BUD SHOOTOUT ON SATURDAY!!! Who else is ready for some left turns again, Edwards needs redemption!

Re: NASCAR thread

I just didn't like the fact that 1 car loses it, half the field is gone. And that it doesn't matter if you run first all race, everyone will *cut you out* on the last lap. All opinions though, restrictor plate racing sucks, the cars are safe enough now that they could handle it without restrictors. If they are that worried about speed, racing with smaller V8s (302/305 vs the 350/351).

Robert Yates tried a smaller engine back in the early 90's.
The guy is a genius.
There was a MAXIMUM displacement rule, but no minimum.
So he built some 310 CID motors and used the same plate as the 358 CID,
and made more power with the smaller motor.
Naturally, since it was a Ford team, (Davey Allison driving)
ASSCAR immediately changed the rules to a minimum 355 CID rule.
Just like the new cooling system rule,
it was meant to hurt the Fords.
One superior part of the FR9 engine was the cooling system.
ASSCAR and Brian "the pansy" France would have none of that.

They have a hate on for Ford for some unknown reason. Edwards SHOULD have won last year, I rewatched the race last night, amazing how the cars literally cleared a path for stewart at the end but gave edwards a hard time. Oh well, Edwards will get them this year!!
