CHUBAKAH Posted July 16, 2006 Share Posted July 16, 2006 I can't believe he just put Tony Stewart in the wall knowing full well his car was not near as good. Someone return the favor please. OMG He just put Waltrip in the wall as well. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redskins2redskins Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Why not Tony Stewart? I was kidding,but he is my favorite driver. They can put anyone they want to in the wall,I just don't always like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 He (Newman) has realized he's not the Nascar golden boy anymore. Sure... he can win the pole for races due to his, and his engineer crew chief, qualifying setups. But... as the green flag drops... he immediately begins slipping back through the field. He's not a race driver.... and he's not capable of communicating what his car is doing or anticipating the tracks changing and how it affects the chassis. It's why "smoke" is so good... and Gordon.... and Earnhardt Jr..... and a number of the otehrs. By the way, Denny Hamlin was 3rd and ran out of gas coming off the fourth turn.... finishing 6th. That's got to suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cskin Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Actually... I think Jr. can drive a racecar... but having DEI eff around with the crew chief chemistry has hurt him. If he had the same crew chief like whiney Jimmy Johnson has had.... he'd have won as many races as Johnson. Look at Gordon, he's gone through Loomis and now is on Letart as crew chief.... and as a result he hasn't had nearly the consistency as he had with Evernham. I was a Bobby Labonte fan until he bolted Gibbs.... now I'm a Hamlin fan... chose him before the year started and he's already won twice... the Shootout in Feb. and in Pocono last month.

Xameil Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Jr is not good.That is all. Jr. has been a great consistent driver this year....don't hate him because of his father... Gordon/Johnson fan, eh? :laugh: Must be. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
halter91 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I don't think Jr. is good at all, i mean he is okay, but not on the high level. I was wondering what happened to Smoke. Hamlin did well, but once again the gas got the Gibbs team. Damn overtime! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamlin did well, but once again the gas got the Gibbs team. Damn overtime! Newman went up the track, and bumped him...it wasn't intentional. The overtime got one other driver as well. Jr has been making strides. I think in the past he needed to grow up. He used to give up during races...he admitted to it. But he has been getting better with his attitude, and he doesn't quit. Problem with Jr., is people try to compare him to his father, and he doesn't drive like him. Although every once in awhile he pulls one of his fathers moves...like Sunday when he pushed Johnson out of the way...that was great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DB44 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Gordon/Johnson fan, eh? :laugh: F ans A gainst G ordon Bad day for JGR. Hopefully this is rock bottom for Tony. With him and Hamlin now outside looking in (11 and 12 in standings) they have to pick it up. Hopefully their luck will change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsfan1992 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I feeel they can make the chase they are onlt 11 and 18 points out of tenth so it is possible that Tony and Denny can make the chase Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoEd Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Jr is not good.That is all. Junior has 17 wins in 7 full seasons Mark Martin had 14 (seasons were a lot shorter back then) Stewart has 26 Gordon had 49 Johnson has 21 Kurt Bush 11 Matt Kenseth 12 Kevin Harvick 6 I could go on and on but just compare Junior to these guys, guys that are consider the elite in the sport. Outside of Gordon and Stewart Junior is right up there with the rest of these guys. So to say he's overrated or that he sucks show's just how little you know about the sport. By the way he also won back to back Bush series titles before making the jump to NASCAR so you can leave out the arguement that he's riding daddy's coat tails. The guy paid his dues so go swing from Gordon's nuts and leave the guy a lone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midnight Judges Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 I like it when one guy breaks the rules and rams people into the walls and then wins the race. Can one of you nascar guys tell me which guy does that the most? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can one of you nascar guys tell me which guy does that the most? The biggest culprits recently are Kurt Busch, Robby Gordon and Jimmy Johnson. Although Johnson has been pretty clean this year, he has caused many crashes, then states, "I didn't do anything, it was the other guy."...oh and don't read this (Tony's pretty bad too) :halo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canethang 305 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 What about R. Gordon lockin 'em up during the final caution and Waltrip rear ending him and blowing his radiator. That cause Hamlin and Sadler to run outta gas cause it took another 4 lap's to clean up. Man they don't like each other and it alway's comes out at Loudon.

Was there a reason for him to lock em up, something in front of him. I hardly doubt he did it so Michael would rear-end him. R. Gordon is fiscally responsible for the cars he drives, so I doubt he would intentionally try and wreck someone while wrecking his at the same time.

Gordon is fiscally responsible for the cars he drives, so I doubt he would intentionally try and wreck someone while wrecking his at the same time. That's what I thought but I rewound that replay a dozen times and he locked em up for what looked like no reason to me. It was under the next to last caution so they were only going about 50 mph and I thought cause of the bad blood Waltrip was riding him to tick him off and Gordon just tapped the brakes but Waltrip wasn't that close and was scrubbing his tires and wham right in to Gordon's back bumper. I guess we'll see what Waltrip has to say tonight on Inside Nextel Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
