Can't blame him, I would have prefered a Chevy in victory lane anyway.

Oh I know I would be pretty emotional too. I thought it was funny.

All I can say is that is the wildcard is looking very exciting right now:

Whoa Tony Stewart jumped up 3 slots in the points, and ol' 4-time is 18th in points!

 

[The Bman]

Well, with Stewart and Johnson doing so good I think that the championship would come down to them two, with Stewart winning two in a row. I can't see anybody else (except for Kenseth) competing for the cup.

It's way too early for championship predictions, but that's what I think will happen.

And what would happen if a 3-Time and defending champion crossed paths with 5-time champion for the championship?

 

[LancerEvo7]

Then whichever of them ended up with the most points would have 1 added to their name.

Exactly.

EDIT:And honestly I think Tony and Jimmie are about even in regards to pure skill.

Can you stop with that PLEASE?

They have names, use them.

We're not joking with you when we tell you to STOP.

He set a new NASCAR record: The most times somebody has called a driver's name by the number of championships he has won.

 

[Mac K]

Maybe if you watched more than one series you'd get to see some amazing road course action.

Amen to that. Congrats to Clint though.

No, the record he's set is most changes of favorite driver in a season and most posters pissed off by doing his many antics.

I'm shocked that I still seem to be the only one who actually has him ignored.

The comedy factor outweighs all other factors imo.

I don't like ignoring posters because you can still see where they post. If the forum software made it so they disappear completely, then I'd have a few on that list.

So even if you were to unsubscribe from that thread, you'd still see them?

 

[CodeRedR51]

If they post in a thread that you go into, you will see where they posted, but instead of their actual post you will see a message that says "You have this user on ignore, blah blah". I'd like for them to be 100% gone.

Okay I'll stop, but only if you admit that Jeff Gordon is the best Driver Nascar has ever seen.

 

[Doodle]

I don't think anyone mentioned this but I was pretty impressed with Casey Mears today. He was consistently running in the top 15-20 all day and ended up finishing 15th for his best finish this season. 👍

Hey can you guy's help me out here:

I can't believe 4 time and 5 time ran up front for so long but both only came away with a 5th and 6th

They're completely gone when you're using the ipod app.

I know you did that on purpose to stir things up and it's not funny.

Just.... stop.... posting.....
You're making me, a Gordon fan, shake my head in disgust as to what you are doing.

Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt would disagree.

 

[JohnBM01]

I love Jeff Gordon, but I'll disagree on "best has ever seen," especially with the likes of... Cale Yearbrough, Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt Sr., and others. Jeff Gordon is surely among the immortals of NASCAR. Best ever? I don't know.

Congratulations to Clint Bowyer (Cup at Sears Point) and Nelson Piquet Jr. (Nationwide at Road America). NASCAR's back on the oval scene with Trucks, Nationwide(?), and Cup at Kentucky. You like your racing on Bluegrass? If so, get your fill of racing this weekend!

 

[MustangRyan]

The best driver ever?

David Pearson.

I hope they really do have the traffic figured out for the race Saturday, I still feel bad for the people who went but didn't get to see the race.

This upcoming Saturday...

THIS IS SPARTA!
