Maybe lack of understanding on my part.

Probably could have worded this a bit better to avoid confusion though

Doh! Austin Dillion 12th, teammate KDB 28th.
Another reason not to ask for cautions.
Good day for the 54 crew.

Yeah, I was stating that I have always found the narrative of Denny being an "ass with poor character" to be weird, and untrue.
People are seeing that he isn't a peice of **** and I hope everyone can have some compassion for what he's been through, and not judge the guy for how he acts as a competitor.
All good and no worries!
My bad.
The guy was actively trolling fans for years. He may be showing some maturity now, for unfortunate reasons, but he’s outright been an ass, no narrative.

Fair! I thought the context provided enough for a half assed stream of consciousness.
I cant imagine a more terrible thing I could do than make a harsh personal criticism while he celebrates/grieves with his family LOL

He leaned into a supervillain role in the sport. He absolutely acted like an ass, for sure. For years. I wouldn't take that as far to judge his personal character for it though. His persona? His behavior as a star? For sure. I just think that's different.
He was trolling non-believers.

I think it was fun. A bit forced and goofy, but we need that stuff.
Top 10 all time.

I dont disagree for the most part.
He's just barely outside my personal top 10
I don't live next to him. I don't know what he's like away from the track. His public presentation is all I have to go on. If he presents himself as an ass, he's going to be presumed to be one.
If I wanted to watch people role-playing as heels, I'd watch rasslin'. Racing doesn't need that.
It’s ok to disagree. He’s top 5 in my all time list, post dinosaur-division.
Petty wouldn’t win a single race today.

Because Suarez is out to prove his old team wrong for replacing him and evidently he used the 1 up at some point and Ross didn't appreciate it.
Speculation or did I miss something?
Ross never used up anyone. In his entire career.
FFS.
Ross spent his first cup season running people over.

You don't know that, it's apples and oranges. Completely different cars. He came from the no power steering or cool suit era.

Ross and Suarez both mid-packing dey both pissed off dats what mid-packing will do to a man. Plus u gotta love when da big bible guy comes in for physical backup after the nothing is over, when the guy he's coming in to backup Suarez already kicked his azz at Phoenix some years back with his helmet on, thank god McDowell showed up

He came from the dinosaur era.

I just won't judge beyond that public presentation. But I get it. You're saying that if he's acting like an ass, he's an ass, and it makes sense.
Aa far as the rest goes. You got me there, I don't have a rebuttal to that
There's nothing I want associated with racing any less than rasslin'
Horrible.

Yes, the sport has evolved, but talent is talent no matter what era. He would have figured these cars out.

Petty isnt in my top 3.
I dont think Petty would do anything today. I also don't think Dale Sr would dominate today either and wouldnt do any better than any of the other top guys in top equipment do today. But that may be a sticky subject....
No.
He would get his ass handed to him.
These races today aren’t held at the county fair, with limited competition.

I guess you missed it, the 1 door slammed the 7 after the race and it wasn't a congrats type of hit. Obviously there was a problem

Not if he didnt drive for HMS, JGR or Penske.
I think Ross is experiencing karma.
Dale was the first guy to see and understand air. Today, that knowledge is common.
Petty had county fair wins attributed to cup level stats. That part is bullshiit, in terms of credibility.

I think the 7 is overdriving out of spite, he ran over the 88 at COTA also.
