here is the difference no one mentions. last season the 4 car was a bunch faster than other cars at times and in particular races they won. There were times harvick was 3-4 tenths faster than the rest of the field. This didn't show because harvick minded the gap and didn't run as hard as he...

I would rather have kurt busch in my car than any of these other wild card drivers who may or may not be any good. kurt knows what a fast car feels like and has worked with a bunch of people. he also has seemed to finally settle down. from my understanding away from the outbursts he is...

actually that is not what I am saying. What I am saying is kicking eric to the curb and replacing him with Bell, may not be the magic solution. I personally don't think there would be much difference between the 2 of them in a cup car, OR even if say eric got demoted back to the NXS car Bell...

love the fact how everyone seems to be thinking Bell needs to be elevated RIGHT NOW to cup. The real people in the sport know that winning in a gibbs NXS car is not that huge of a deal, its just not. please realize this. There is a huge equipment disparity in that series right now. Gibbs and...

it looked like watching nascar in 2004, The stands looked full, so much so that it was actually shocking to see. someone said 190k?!?! holy crap, I don't think any race anywhere in the united states will draw that kind of crowd. Maybe dega is on to something that other tracks need to look...

so looking at the stands, they looked way more full than any recent tracks we have seen. Why does this track have so many more fans at it than others?

ok I have to say it, the dale jr download is one heck of a show. Jr never fails to bring out something inciteful that we as fans never knew. "all I got was a pair of boots" seriously I almost no joke shed a tear. This was what dale jr got when his dad passed away. Its a wonder dale jr...

Interesting SMI stock is up 34% since yesterday

I wouldn't say that at all. taking a company public usually means a massive windfall for the stock that is sold. at the time nascar was on the rise. Going public could mean a massive cash infusion to the stockholders that sold. Now that the company is trading at a much lower stock price...

Continue to live in the brand loyalty fantasy. Doing so shows a very limited understanding of the business of nascar. Very very few drivers only drive for one make. Jeff Gordon, Jimmie, and dale jr are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head. Oh but wait Jeff did drive fords...

I believe the story, in fact if you listened to the dale jr download recently when RC was a guest, RC himself admits dale had LOTS of conversations about leaving and driving for other teams. He knew dale talked to others about driving for them. I think he even thought it was likely it might...

Hendrick day old engines rack? Wow pretty out of touch with that comment. I think rick Hendrick is considered one of the most honorable guys in the entire sport To claim he is supplying engines that are less than what his teams get without them knowing and agreeing to it is insane. James...

you guys are worried way too much about who is listed as the owner of the car. They had rules about car ownership back then. this also effected how they were able to transfer points to other owners and other drivers. remember walt czarnicki owning a penske car? umm yeah. I bet he wonders...

ok you must not have been watching back then. we disagree. you are saying casey mears was a better driver when he was at HMS than driving chips cars. no one watching the sport at that time would agree with you, I bet casey wouldn't even agree with you. he didn't out run ANYONE for that win...

You are crazy if you think the way the win happens doesn’t matter David ruetimann won as well but where is he? Same sort of deal, lucking into wins matters when it comes time to renew drivers contracts. Mears got the ride at hms because he showed he could run good at times in chips cars. At...

I could poke a hole through your entire argument. Ready? I can poke holes back Nears: Won the Coca Cola 600 in Hendrick’s 5 after going winless with Chip. mears won that race on fuel mileage, he got insanely lucky. he never sniffed a win at any other point driving an HMS car after showing...

Why aren’t we asking what a really good proven driver like Kyle Busch or Harvick could do in chips cars? Instead of saying they suck. Name me one driver who has ran better after leaving. You can’t because they didn’t have a career anymore after leaving chip. Casey mears, reed Sorensen...

soooo, when was the last time a driver left chip's cars and run better? the drivers who were "thought" to be amazing and left chip for greener pastures pretty much lost their careers because of it. jmac got his career back only because he came back to chips car. please understand history.

IF I was rick I think I would try to hire kurt for next season. put him in byron's or bowman's car. never got why rick didn't want kenseth or another veteren. I think kurt can help a team get better. I used to hate kurt. I mean seriously could not stand him. but I was rooting for him, to...
