Why do you feel sorry for me? The number 8 is my real car which I love seeing in victory lane and I was shouting for Carl Edwards to win the cup last year, as Jr was just having a bad one. I hope this year, I'll be able to cheer Jr to the cup.

I think he meant that he feels sorry for you wanting Jeff Gordan to win. That guy is such a loser.

Why do you call him a loser? He's won 4 championships, which is more than ANY ACTIVE DRIVER!

Why the hell am I leaping to Jeff Gordon's defence. Give me that number 8 Budweiser car any day.

I mean loser as in the way he acts. He threw a fit at Bristal...

Im happy when I see the number 20 Home depo car.

That was funny (and hugely uncharacteristic) I was expecting that from Busch and Harvick (maybe Kenseth / Gordon or Gordon / Truex)

That's what Bristol is all about. Martinsville next week will be no different.

Anyone been to Daytona Beach b4? First race track for nascar. I go there every summer. There arent any races durring the time I got, but I still go to the beaches and the amusement parks. Its really fun.

I've never been to any race track before, but it's one of my to do things when I fiunally get my 'World Tour of Canada and the USA' I want to see Hockey, Baseball, NASCAR and lots of good times. Could take me anything from 6 months to about 5 years.

I didnt know that people in the UK have even heard of Nascar. Its nice to know that its getting world wide interest. Lots of people in America think that nacar is for southern rednecks. I live in the north and it gets really annoying.

hey mind if i join? well i am a Hendrick Fan all the way. but yeah i do Think Jeff Gordon was right in what he did. but thats just me.

I've been a subscriber to NASN (North American Sports Network) for the past 5 years. I got into Hockey and Baseball in my student days and the NASCAR and NBA followed suit.

Welcome. I don't particularly mind the Hendrick cars, but in this order: Gordon, Vickers (sympathy), Busch, Johnson.

Kyle needs to calm down, Johnson needs to take the blame when it's his fault, Vickers needs to win, Gordon needs to paint a 24 on the 48 car.

Yeah since he Gordon owns Johnsons car and all. But i think that the order goes like this: Gordon, Johnson, Bush, Vickers.

No, I was stating my order of preference for the Hendrick drivers. I put Johnson last, as I dislike him and his arrogance

Well yeah johnson can get alittle arogant at times but he is still a good driver.

But he's not the best. These cars are pretty much on a rail at times and the drivers don't have to work as hard as they used to.

Jimmie Johnson thinks he's the second coming of christ (maybe the second coming of the Intimidator, or is that a little too close for comfort?), because he never seems to make mistakes (well, none that he's ever at fault for, obviously)

If he could hold up his hands and say 'yes, that was my fault', then I'd respect him a lot more, because he'd prove he was man enough to race.

Yeah i see your point in what your saying now cause he never really does take the blame for some of the wrecks he causes.

But anyway, lets talk about what happened at Texas. Busch and Biffle (nasty tag, I think the 2 was at fault); Carl Edwards getting wicked loose and smashing a top 5 car up in the process.

Kasey Kahne just can't seem to find enough oomph to get up there and pass Jimmie Johnson to be the first driver for Evernham Motorsports to top the standings at any time.

True i also think the 2 car was at fault in that crash. But Edwards had a pretty bad crash and yeah it he wrecked his car like he wrecked his chances of finishing in the top 5 in that race.

There was probably one man out there who could ahve saved that car - Greg Biffle. He's had some great saves over the years.

Yeah he has had some good saves. But he just could not save the car from the wall in that race.

I think it should be noted that Greg Biffle's saves come when he's in the corners (therefore the speed is reduced) as opposed to the wreck, which was in the middle of the straight.

Plus it's hard to save a car if you're being pushed by an angry Kurt Busch, especially with his more aero-efficient ears.

Yeah thats true. But i really do think Kurt Busch drives alitte on the dirty side not as much as Tony Stewart but he does drive dirty.

But it's one of those things that makes NASCAR fun. I was expecting a punch up between him and Kevin Harvick after Bristol, but instead we got Jeff gordon and Matt Kenseth.

I was a happy man becuause I saw emotional drivers not giving a damn about the sponsors for a change

Yeah they need to do that more often. Cause wheres the point if they just be mister nice guy all the time. But yeah dirty racing in moderation does make the sport fun.

Don't get me wrong, one of the drivers I respect the most on the circuit is Mark Martin, because he looks after his car and drives it so damn fast at the same time.

NASCAR has its heroes and its villains, it needs both to survive. Sometimes you're the hero, others the villain.

Yeah cause you cant have light without darkness. In other words thats what your saying the heroes being the light and the villains being the darkness.

No, I'm saying that my hero (Dale Earnhardt) was a hero BECAUSE he was a villain. He raced hard and occasionally he drove with an intimidating manor, causing people to fear him and he passed them.

He was both at once, which made him really special. At the moment, Jr is whiter than white, though he does swear a little too much on the air (:S) I'm waiting for him to come over to the dark side (RCR?) and win some championships

Yeah but junior wont do that anytime soon i dont think. Because hes to good to be bad so there for he is going to keep racing like he has been.

I'm just wondering how long it'll be before the Budweiser car is in Victory lane

Well it might be far off in the distance the way hes driving now. But you never know it might be closer then you think.
