Re: NASCAR thread

Glad to see Kennseth take the points lead, but hate that Marks fallen so far behind. Looks like Gordons still out, now we need some really bad mojo to find its way into that other Hendrick car.

Re: NASCAR thread

I think the rookie in car 06 got a real education today. Schrader probably wanted to shove those bumper tubes up his rookie butt.

I don't get why Dale Jr took such a chance getting around Kain. How many dang times did we hear "big picture" over his scanner? WTH

Re: NASCAR thread

Bobby's my #1 driver. I figured his career was done when he moved to the Petty's. 4 top 10's in the last 5 races is better than I ever thought. He may still have the most DNF's this year. Anyway I'd like to see him competetive again like Jeff Burton is now. As far as the Championship goes this year, Kenseth is my choice, but I'll be happy for any of them except Harvick.

Re: NASCAR thread

2 in a row for Stewart. I wonder how he would be doing in points if he were in the chase? I think Johnson will get the championship this year. Although he is not my favorite to win, I think he does deserve it.

Re: NASCAR thread

I was wondering the same thing about Stewarts ranking had there been no 'Chase'. Should he do as well in the next two races I think you'll hear a very vocal outpouring about reworking the chase. There wasn't a Ford in the top 10 finishers. I wonder where the weak issues are and what needs to be doen to get to making them more competitive?

They said on TV that he would be in second and only 19 points out but not sure if that was with this win or was after last week.


JJ in first place. That sucks. I can not stand that man. He is to full of himself and will never admitt he makes a mistake. Product of the Hendrick juggernaut. NOT

Re: NASCAR thread

I have completely lost interest.
Never thought that would happen.
Yeah, I hope Ford does well, but the Toiletta thing, to me, is just plain Un-American.
What next?
Illegal Alien drivers?

Re: NASCAR thread

Hey, what a turnaround for Kurt. He's a Deputy now???????????

I still don't like the guy but if he can make something good happen recovering from his screw-up. More power to him when the kids gain from it. :THUMBSUP:

It is bad how much he has aged from the pressure. BELOW

Re: NASCAR thread

Johnson's Championship to lose. I never have been a fan.

Harvick is having a year to remember, very nice win today.

Re: NASCAR thread

Only one race left. Who do you honestly think will take the championship. I am going to say Jimmy Johnson.

Re: NASCAR thread

With DEI talkng about buying the two Yates cars positions, this isn't going to leave much for Ford fans to cheer about. Really can't hope for Johnson to be the victor, even though that's what looks like will be the eventual outcome. Word is that on the COT front, GM will use the Impala name on those cars instead of the Monte Carlo tag. DC is possibly looking at the Challenger or Avenger name for theirs...wonder if Fords tough about using Mustang for their COT entry?

They could just go all out and submit Cougar. It would be nice to have another Eliminator. Just re-body the GT500 and make a few thousand of them. :LAUGH:

Re: NASCAR thread

If Ford would build one. It seems like they could generate some sales and enthusiast momentum by doing a Merc-bodied Stang. I know there was a concept a few years ago, it wasn't called Cougar, but it looked like it could be a candidate. If Ford had the guts, and possible their new leader does, to actually watch their own commercials and make some truly BOLD MOVES, there could be a future for all of their divisions. A new Falcon (yeah, its broken record time) sure looks like a good candidate for a NASCAR entry, on the showrooms either as a Ford or Mercury product. Either line could use a paring down of their lines and this is a car that would sell, could be raced in a number of series and actually get some positive press for the blue oval.

Yeah, the Cougar came back looking like the Eclipse. Kind of soiled the Cougar name there just like Chevrolet did by bringing back the Monte Carlo as a front wheel drive V6.

I'd love to see the Cougar back looking similar to the Mustang.

YOUR 2004 NEXTEL CUP CHAMPION, JIMMY JOHNSON. Whether you like him or not, you gotta admit. He did deserve it.

Re: NASCAR thread

Like it or not? I chose NOT! The only saving grace for me was that it was a Ford sweep of the weekend, Martin in trucks, Kenseth in Busch, and Biffle in the Cup race...the Shelby GT500 pace car was pretty sweet as well.

You are absolutely right. I didn't even realize that. It was Ford Championship weekend and Fords won all three races. :THUMBSUP:
