Outlaw's voodoo magic didn't work this time!

Brad must have a lucky horseshoe in his car.

 

[photonrider]

Now just bring that 'shine back home in one piece boys.. . .

4 to go now.

Brad looks very comfortable. White flag.

And Brad for Roger Penske. Good one, Brad!!

It seemed to be working as well as Robby Gordon's engine on Friday.

And thats it :|

Back to Gordon now I see.

Well it is pretty heart warming to see your childhood hero come back on to the track after getting wrecked by Jr.

 

[GTPorsche]

Back to Gordon now I see.

Just give it a few days....

 

[photonrider]

Great play-by-play discussion, guys, you are what makes GTPlanet the great place it is.

Next stop: Auto Club Speedway. More of an Indy track - no steep banking. Should be interesting.

 

[ICEYOU]

UGH Jeff's 23rd in points now! *facedesk*

after getting wrecked by Jr.

That's a pretty silly statement. It was obviously unintentional.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Good results for EGR and MWR. The latter may be the surprise team of the year.

If by interesting, you mean, "I'll have a good dream while I fall asleep", then yes.

Should be a good race.

Vickers proved he deserves to have a ride in the series. Shame it wouldn't be possible to remove the old guys from the #55 and give it to Vickers.

If he keeps it consistent, he might have a ride next year.
But yeah, I think losing his ride was a wake-up call to him. Just what he needed to work on his own attitude.

 

[GTPorsche]

His next race is two weeks at Martinsville.

This. One of those races that I don't care if I miss it.

At least there is an IndyCar race on the same day.

 

[GTPorsche]

Indeed there is.

I'm hoping for a battle of the old guys.

Franchitti vs. Barrichello.

Won't be watching that either.

 

[Cale]

Wooooooooooooooo

 

[Cowboys965]

I thought you were a Stewart fan.

I thought he was a Gordon fan.

 

[Spacegoat]

This week he is.

Next week........who knows?

 

[Cowboys965]

He wants Hendrick to use Toyotas, remember? Duh.

 

[Snaeper]

I think this season is going to be very exciting if things continue like they have. There are a lot of strong contenders and I could see the Sprint Cup Chase turning into a 20-way battle if things keep up like they have.

I say this because looking over the points, things seem "bottom-heavy" with a lot of potential race-winning drivers that are well outside the top ten, plus a lot of mid-packers who are in the top 15 because they're putting up very strong and consistent performances. Things are going to be very interesting.

Hey...I said it would be nice...

Will Johnson tie Petty, Earnhardt, Schumacher, and Gordon years from now?

 

[Cale]

My mom texted me this morning saying my brother is genuinely upset that Brad won. YEEEEAAAAHHHHH

 

[ICEYOU]

If I become a film director when I get older I'm going to make a movie based on Jeff & Jimmie's rivalry, it will be titled, A Race to Seven: The Jeff Gordon vs Jimmie Johnson era

 

[MustangRyan]

Hey...I said it would be nice...

Will Johnson tie Petty, Earnhardt, Schumacher, and Gordon years from now?

Is Jimmie Johnson going to tie Gordon?

What, are they going to strip #48 of one of their titles? Jeff isn't about to score 2 titles to pull ahead before Jimmie scores his next one.
