On another note, like him or not, Kyle Busch sure is fun to watch.

Need to get rid of those damn restrictor plates and turn old Bill loose. He was something else at over 200mph.

Dale JR is a joke

Now, if others want to place some funny barbs, I will be more than happy to read them.

Jr can drive. There is no dout about that. Every one cant finish first. (unless your johnson) Which he can drive to. To be fair you could say the same about jeff gorden, He's not doing so good. My driver is tony # 14. When dale hit the wall. I said good bye to #3, Hello to #20 then #14. He can drive to. As with all the changes to rules, cars, tracks & no practice. These driver & teams Have had alot on the table. But after this year. Teams got a feel for these new cars and rules. I don't believe jimmie johnson will win next year. I hope its tony # 14. I do miss the old nascar. Where you had to first win the races to get the cup. Hey what about mark martian ( he's grrrrreat ). I love my nascar.

I have always been a Dale Jr fan, but, this kid needs to look in the mirror as his source for struggles. If three of the four Hendrick cars can finish 1...2...3... and Jr is bringing up the rear I doubt seriously it's the team that's the problem. Jr's head don't appear to be in the game IMO.

I have to wonder sometimes if its actually the drivers, or the owners. Is there a possibility, that the owners are telling certain drivers to hold back and let one of the team mates be up front? Let one of the team mates win? there seems to be something amiss in nascar now. You see certain drivers like Jeff Gordon going like crazy up front doing great then all of a sudden he just starts letting other cars pass and you can tell he let off the throttle. So either he is mad at the owner he works for, or mad at his team. Who knows, but i have seen other drivers do the same, including Dale jr. I think there is either betting on drivers going on, or something between owners, but something isnt right now at nascar.

I thought the same thing the other day when Johnson crashed, all of the sudden Gordon went backwards when he started from the first lap doing well.

You know, I am not a conspiracy theory kinda guy, but you might be on to something. There is some odd stuff going on at times it seems.

Maybe it's just me, but Nascar isn't the same since Earnhardt died....for me the day he died, Nascar died. I still watch it, but it don't have the same feel to me or appeal to me it used to.

It's easy to tell when Juan Pablo Montoya is mad at somebody .
But as far as Jeff Gordon goes he just isn't competitive . He drives for points . Johnson drives to win . I really doubt anybody tells Mark Martin to give up anything to anybody . He puts reality to it all .
