NASCAR - Who's Your Driver?
 
Who's your favorite driver in the Nextel Cup Series?

I like Dale Jr, Tony Stewart and several others...

I don't keep track of what "series" Nascar is having, but I like Rusty Wallace. He always has a good car.

There are only three levels, Craftsman Truck, Busch Series, and Nextel Cup... the Nextel Cup is the highest level... to most people. :)

Never truly got into NASCAR. I'll watch it from time to time. Seems to me like Junior is the guy I end up pulling for, though I have no idea why.:)

You don't understand why I pull for Junior? I don't either, that's my point. I can honestly say that I have only watched NASCAR a few times, and oddly enough, I happened to be watching the end of the Daytona 500 when his dad was killed...maybe that's why I pull for him when I do happen to catch the race.

Watching Sr pass was the worst race ever... it was very hard for me and my family. My dad followed Sr for 30 years... I'll never forget listening to him cry as if he had lost his own father. :(

I "hated" Sr... until he was gone, and realized I lost the guy I loved to "hate" every week... I only disliked him cause my dad plled for him... and we have to have something to fight over during a race... but once he was gone, I was devistated. You just get used to watching someone week after week, year after year... and then... he's gone...

I used to be a huge Nascar fan and Rusty Wallace was my favorite. We used to go to the races at Michigan International Speedway once a year.

when i was a youngun i used to attend many nascar races with my dad, but anymore, nascar is too much like days of thunder....nascar needs to start enforcing their rules before someone else gets killed.

ya nascar needs to enforece the rules they have now and stop making up more rules that take away the dominance of one team or car manifacturer

Woot go Jeff Gordon, A friend of mine she rooted for the 18 car for years (bobby)and now has to get rid of all her memrobilia cause her driver changed teams , I keep telling her thats because he sucks. But in my heart I love to watch them battle it out . I still would love to see Dale (ups ) get in the top ten this year. Tony has too much emotion and tends to act before thinking , Great driver , but needs to be calmed down to get the job done . so far a good season of racin.
How Bad Have You Got It!!!!!!!!

How about Matt Kenseth... regardless of what anyone in here thinks of him, he is one of the best racers. Not because he wins a lot (because he certainly doesnt) but because he has a tendency to finish in the top 10 most races which is why he is second in points right now. And for the record, i ABSOLUTELY HATE Jeff Gordon AND Tony Stewart. I wish Carl Edwards wouldve whooped Stewarts @$$ last weekend. I think Edwards had every right in the world to spin him out on pit road and i wish he wouldve done more damage and taken him out for the race!!

*mad mad applause!!!!* Great post!!

I am a Jimmie Johnson dude, all the way. But, yeh, his team owner is a weasel. :D

An' yeh, Stewart can drive it like he stole it, that's for sure.. but I think he's a terrible person. My most hated nemesis in the whole series, really. Carl Edwards woulda taken 50 lbs offa Stewart if'n he went for it... not that Tony can't afford to lose it... :D

haha, i applaud you for that great comment about Stewart's weight. I think that there is no room for d**kheads when you are driving at 180mph and you are two inches from the car in front of you. And when you spin someone out and he hits someone else, he should be the one flippin you the bird, not the other way around *eh-hem*Tony Stewart*eh-hem*. It just doesnt make too much sense. But, he is a hell of a driver. So is Johnson. He is lucky to be in first though. Had it not been for some driver of questionable heterosexuality, *cough*GORDON*cough*, Kenseth would literally be RIGHT on Johnson's bumper as far as points go. But, thats the reason NASCAR is so exciting.

*mad, mad applause* GREAT post on NASCAR, dude!! As a matter of fact, one of the greatest I done ever seen. I completely agree. Johnson ain't won his first championship yet, but he is DUE in my books. LOL

Yeh, Stewart drives me mad. Absolutely nutso. The guy does this crap and then blames EVERYONE else! He is NEVER responsible for doin' it... rrrrrrright. Last weeks fiasco, he actually admitted was his fault. I durned near marked the calendar as "The First Time EVER" on that day, I tell youse whut.

An' comparin' Stewart (we call him "Tony Bologna") to Earnhart is just sacrelidge, in my books. Earnhardt was a true champion, and a true man...

I dont know if anyone caught the race today, but that idiot Jimmy Johnson (haha, i dont mind him but im a Kenseth fan) was on his was to Victory Lane and he dropped the flag LMAO!! He had to back up and pick it up. Some drunk guy barely missed hitting his car with a beer cup right after he dropped the flag! It was pretty good. But it was an intense race and im glad that neither Gordon nor Stewart came close.

I totally respect the man for his mad driving abilities, no doubt, but his personality... I dunno, he gets on my nerves will all the blaming of everyone else for stuff he does. :) But, yeh, at least he pilots a Monte Carlo!!!!

Mmm, forgot to mention, I like Kenseth too, I think he's a class act.

Yeah, Kenseth finished in a pretty crappy position but i dont think those road races should even count. They arent really NASCAR in my opinion. I believe that road races should be left for stupid Formula 1 drivers lol

I TOTALLY agree. I do not like the road races at all, and am happy there's only a couple of 'em a year, that's for sure. GREAT POST, BRO!

I'm sorry, but I like the "twistys". Really shows what a driver is made of. Right now Harvic and Stewart are really showin' their "cahones". Kirt bush is in the lead after 15 laps, followd by Stewart.

Hey, dude, everyone likes somethin' a little different, that's what makes this world so great!! Me and my buddy watched a road race F1 or Indy race the other weekend together, I really enjoyed that. I guess for me, I am a purist at heart. With the whole NASCAR thing being a byproduct of moonshine runnin', the boys all started out on the roundy-rounds. So, that's where my heart lies.

Me and my buddy DID really enjoy Watkins Glen last weekend. Even though Jimmie stank the place up with his 68th place finish (or somethin' like that LOL) it was a real exciting race right up to the end where Harvick did his magic. But, I have to be honest here, I prefer the roundy-rounds. :)

C3 Starship 08-18-2006 03:45 PM

RE: NASCAR - Who's Your Driver?
 
Don't forget, those Moon-shine boys started out on the twisty back roads of the South! (I think I hear "Dixie" playin' in the back-ground!!! LOL)

Well guys! Kenseth qualified 3rd this week. I think we might have a good race ahead of up also! I cant wait to see what the outcome is!!!!

94blackC4 08-20-2006 11:20 PM

RE: NASCAR - Who's Your Driver?
 
Haha, I hate to say "I told you so", but Kenseth was THE MAN this week at MIS. I was so excited. Especially because i turned the race on with about 100 to go (halfway through) and he was leading and then he only lost the lead for about 2 laps!! Anyway, better luck next week to all you other race fans lol.
