I wouldn't do this either. By the way, this was at a car show and he had it in the "stock" class. He tried telling me it came from the factory like this. I asked him if he thought I was stupid or something. He says why? I'm like, "for one thing, the Dale Jr. edition is a Monte carlo SS, It only has the black "E" shaped decal on the side, and it doesn't have the owners name of the car above the door. 1/2 hour later, I walked by and noticed that he changed classes and went into modified class.

Re: NASCAR thread

All this bickering is about Toyota but I would bet that there is a lot of cheating going on with all the makes. The thing is, they just never got caught yet.

Re: NASCAR thread

Toyota wasn't cheating by making big HP numbers, they were just making more power than NASCAR thought prudent for a race where cars are supposed to have parity. Toyota chose to try to fake their test numbers by modifying the pedals with magnets so that they would get told by NASCAR what changes to make, but still secretly make more power than they were suposed to. That's the error in their ways, and that's when they cheated. They still should have gotten slapped down harder for that.

And that my friend has by far been the best summary of why it was cheating.


This recent episode by the "esteemed" Joe Gibbs and his racing team was one of the worst episodes of cheating in recent years in my opinion. Along with Mikey Waltrip and his Toyota team last year.

Actually, I thought Jimmy Johnson's adjustable rear window was.

I believe Carl Edwards was a worst case of cheating as it directly effected a race.

Not even close and there is no proof it changed the outcome of that race.

Re: NASCAR thread

I avoided the results of the truck race until last night when I caught the first half of the thing on Speed. I didn't like the ending when I checked out the vids this morning.

I missed the NW race and checked the vids for it too, that ending was ok for me.

I noticed the hit list for that rookie truck racer "Jim Johnson" had #51 on it like 5 times. So finally JJ does something I like.

And cheating about HP in a motor don't effect a race. That may help explain why after every restart Busch ends up pulling several car lengths ahead of the second place car in the straight aways. That is HP not talent.


I guess Nascar don't share your opinion. These penalties show just how severe they felt the cheating at JGR exactly was.

Was that actually Gibbs voice coming out of beerformeplz's helmet avatar?

Edwards/Roush didn't blatently try to circumvent rules to win a race, Gibbs Racing tried out and out to set themselves up to have an advantage in future races by falsifying the information NASCAR was trying to obtain to level out the playing field. Sould like big-time cheating to me.

Re: NASCAR thread

"MICHAEL WALTRIP IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST DRIVER IN NASCAR!" I thought that was funny as hell when that spotter or criew chief said that. But it's the truth. Even though he did'nt cause that accident. The race was still good. A truly classy answer by Carl about the tap and run he gave Bush. It would be gret to see Carl win it all.

Re: NASCAR thread

Looks like Dumbo got owned by Mr. Ed.
Kyle showed what a 'class' act he really is. And if anyone thinks otherwise, he's the one that called called down by NASCAR, not Carl.
It's on, and I think Carl should be given plenty of credit for kepping it close and his crew chief applauded for getting the car where it shold be for the last segment of the race.
Gibbs Racing need to be ashamed for not only being cheaters, but bad losers. They don't deserve a championship. They may back into one, but it isn't a deserved one.
And congrats to JJ for such a great race (sorry, Ylo...had to do it , just for you! ), even though JG managed to have a respectable race, he didn't really seemed thrilled by it...odd.
The comment about Waltrip was the absolute highlight of the night, though!

Re: NASCAR thread

I love both of the comments that Edwards and "Buschleague" said after the race.

Here is what Edwards had to say. "It's one of those deals where I couldn't get by him, I couldn't get by him, and I just had to ask myself, 'Would he do that to me?' Obviously the answer was your darn right Dumbo would have done it.

And here is what Buschleague had to say. "He hit me getting into Turn 1," Busch said. "Whatever. Carl's going to say he's sorry, that he didn't want to race that way, but he always does. We'll take it, we'll go on and we'll race him that way in the Chase if that's the way he wants to race."

I'm sorry here, but there is an old saying that all of us know very well, What goes around comes around. Well Kyle, these guys out there know you, how classless you are, and what you would do to them. Why do they know this. Because you have repeatedly knocked cars off the track in your career. If you treat a driver with respect most will return the favor. Drive like it's a Saturday night demolition derby at the county fair and that is what the other drivers are going to do to you when they have the chance.

Also Kyle Buschleague, great show of class once again. Your ramming Edwards after the race is very typical of your classlessness. So was your post race comments. There is a difference between racing with attitude and being classless, you are the later. What a waste of great talent with your immaturity and classlessness.

Despite what most of you may think, I do like team Roush. Biffle and Edwards are my two favorite from that camp. If it's not going to be JJ or JG at the finish first It suits me fine to see those two get there first.

Re: NASCAR thread

I hope ASSCAR fines Dumbo and takes away 200 points,
puts him on probation, and spanks him with a wet noodle.
Or maybe throws wet rice at him I suppose.

I have a feeling Dumbo would like the wet noodle spanking.

And somehow I'm sure a few JJ & JG jokes will come from this as well.
