This is the stuff that is missing from Nascar, it`s called Emotion.
I am a 3 fan, and I love it when someone starts conversations like this, as long as it stays fun, which it should because racing is just entertainment for the fans. I have a lot of respect for Jeff Gordan, he is one of the most talented drivers on the track. A drivers personality is really important to the fans and that is really lacking right now with Nascar.
Tony Stewart and Kyle Bush have some of it, but most of the top competitive drivers are boring as hell to listen to or watch.

I am not a Kyle Bush fan at all, but the sport needs him and his cockey attitude. Maybe Jimmy Spencer can come back and break his nose after a race, or better yet and this looks like this is a big strech-Jr. becomes competitive and those two go at it on the track and off. This is far fetched the way the 88 is running , but it would be fun.

finally...... someone that gets it.

nascar needs it's bad guys.....they also need some more drivers that aren't in the bathroom popping zits before the race. Too many young KIDS behind the wheel. I root for Kyle just because he reminds me of the old man.....he hates to lose and would rather wreck than finish second. I wanna puke everytime I hear one of these newborns give their boring ass interview and talk about how good their car was running and happy with a 6th place finish.
The fans are just as bad as the drivers these days. No one remembers the villians. They remember DW losing. I remember when people hated DW because he always talked shit and that made people mad. What made them hate him is because he then backed it up by winning. He bragged, he banged his car against whoever he had to in order to win, and then he danced in victory lane after he did it.

All of this "rubbin's racin'" talk is flat out bullshit in this instance.

Ohh hey, I'm over 100 laps down, but rubbin's racin'.

I hope he gets suspended for a few races. I kind of think he will.

If they're on the lead lap, and have something to "race" for, then a little rubbin' is okay in my book. This was blatant, as we all know.

yea .. I just like to bring up that JG has more wins than Sr .. Actually the better comparison is JJ .. He is the opposite . He already has 49 wins and 4 consecutive Championships .. and is very young in his career.. No way he will ever match Richards wins .. but could see him take over number of championships ..

Yea they use to call it the Chrome horn.. Biggest point here is the 100 laps down ... Carl should have moved out of the way and let him go on by, there is even a flag for that ... Racing tough has nothing to do with what happened yesterday ....AND THEN ... he drove the wrong way down the pit road.. serious NO NO ...

I want to be clear that I was surprised at his flight and very relieved when he walked away.
Yea but what if he hadnt walked away .. what if it had barrel rolled and they had to tear the car apart to take him out and rushed him to the hospital, could have easily happened... Then how you feel Carl...???

**korndawg** · 03-08-2010, 11:16 AM

He'd smile, say "I'm sorry, I love you mom, and go eat Subway"

All would be forgivent.

I don't get it...he did the exact same thing to him a year ago..he was forgiven..

(I'm not into NASCAR, Diane Sawyer told me)

I think he has the best chance of any driver to tie or beat the championship
record, they are a great team and he can drive a race car. I don`t think he gets enough credit for his driving ability, their team reminds me of Gordon and Evernham. They perform at every track and have great equipment. I don`t have a favorite driver anymore (RIP #3), it`s fun just to see a good race.

How does Carl owe Brad? At Talladega, Carl blocked to the outside, then to the inside and spun across Brads nose. Carl also caused himself to wreck in the race yesterday by turning across Brads nose again.

Carl was over 150 laps down, tried to wreck Brad and missed him the lap before, finally got him. It was uncalled for, especially at over 180 or 190 mph..

You lucky SOB! HaHa!
My favorite track to go to. I have had some great times there with friends and people I don`t know, man I love that place. I try and tell people how cool the place is, but you just need to experience it. I hope to get back there some day, but getting tickets for the night race is hard, and there is a reason for that.

My favorite fantasy track would be Richmond with 22 deg. banked turns or just build more Bristol style tracks.

i grew up watching nascar and dale sr.

the racing now a days is big joke where nascar dictates everything and no action happens other than whether one driver makes it on gas or not.....whoo hoo......not.

Brad keslowski has been wrecking people left and right what does he expect? im not condoning what edwards did at all on the front stretch but dammit someone needs to teach the wanna be whats up....

atleast F1/drag racing/CORR/AMA/WRC keeps it real

Brad keslowski has been wrecking people left and right what does he expect? A lot of drivers when they start in CUP wreck a lot .. Stewart, Spencer, Ernie Ervin, Montoya,Hornish and till this year the worst was Mikey .. It is a big learning curve ..

**snaggeltooth** · 03-09-2010, 09:35 AM

probation for 3 races ... thats all ... so basically nothing .... People who like wrecks should have a great time ...
