FINALLY

 

[Wheezy50]

I just got signed up for the fantasy league. I'll try to stay involved this year.

 

[bwframe]

So, no more Kurt. No more Kyle. No more Busch...

Think they got PC ahead of themselves on Kurt? Is this just he said, she said?

He has not been found guilty of anything as yet.
A lot of knee jerk here.
I know folks racing that know his girl friend and they say to the man she is bat crazy but that is Curt's fault for hanging with Bat crazy.

I've quoted you more than once today!

He drove for Andretti. I am friends with many of the mechanics. No body liked or trusted her.
That said, I was not there when they mixed it up. Curt should know better.

 

[churchmouse]

I am honored.

 

[bwframe]

... Curt should know better.

I can certainly relate to putting your uhhhh....
...parts in the crazy.



On another note, how long before we get really sick of hearing about Gordon retiring this year? Over and over and...

I think he's spot on. I was really wanting to see him pull it off, but when he got shuffled back on that second to last restart, I knew it probably wasn't going to happen. I was glad he made it back to where he did though.

Restricter plate racing sucks.

 

[CathyInBlue]

Kyle Busch got ****ed up going head-first into the infield wall. The only thing that sucks worse than restricter plate racing is dead drivers on the track.

Alright NASCAR fans, I have a question for you.

Now that Joey Logano has GUARANTEED a spot in the playoffs, what possible reason could he and the team have for spending millions of dollars traveling the country and entering race after race, with absolutely no option of improving his "playoff" standings? The only argument I could make would be for testing purposes at specific locations, but only if they are included during the "playoff" portion of the season.

The ROI his advertisers expect for sponorsing the #22.

Sponsors pay to have that car in front of the home town fans and the TV cameras every single minute possible.

Just seems like a terrible format to me. I used to watch, but all the changes drove me away. Consistency doesn't crown a champion any longer (Kenseth being the last one that brought about the change). Now it's run as hard as possible, tear up whatever equipment you need to so long as you just win one race. From a cost analysis perspective, seems like they're spending multi-millions for no reason other than to fulfill contractual obligations. If I were an owner, this would drive me insane. Unload, qualify, and then park it for the weekend.

Yes.....the format and most of the "New" way sucks butt.
I did not watch the entier race. When Tony went out I did too. Checked occasionally but Meh....They have ruined it.

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Restricter plate racing sucks.

Yeah...I watched some of the race and slept through part of it. I will have to admit the last 20-30 laps were exciting.

 

[Tripp11]

My usual is watch 15 minutes of pre-race coverage from the 30-60 minutes I have DVR'd, and then watch the first 20 laps or so. Then fast forward until something exciting happens during the race (perhaps pit stops, some exciting passing, bumping/banging) and then watch the last 20 laps or so. Watch post-race interviews.

There's no way I would spend an entire day watching that race, or any race for that matter. Too many other things to do which take up my time.
