Piquet JR to start at Glen

BobbyFord said:
He led 19 of 53 laps at Road America
37 NNS races, one win, 7 top 10's. Average finish in the 30 car for 36 races is 17.4
Not exactly setting the place ablaze, IMO.

That was the most laps led though.

He's just road-ringing, bringing sponsorship and trying to get the team a decent result for one race. I think that team has finished better than 41st once this year and their car is always blank. Outside of restrictor plate races this is their best opportunity get out of the cellar.
 
Liked watching SR race, hope Jr does well.

That reminds me..when Senna lost his life Big E said condolences to Sennas fans after a race. I did not like big E but could not help but be a little teary eyed hearing him say that.

Turner Scott as a whole hasn't exactly been lighting it up in Nationwide either, not counting Kyle Larson's 2 wins (and he's ungodly talented). Dylan Kwasniewski has ran about the same as Piquet this year and he's another good driver. Also the 30 was a start up team so I think he kinda got thrown to the wolves last year IMO. He proved in the truck series that he has a lot of talent.
 
Piquet is good. He'll notch a solid finish for the 77 team if he keeps it out of the tires. I'm not sure what all the complaining is about about Nelson Piquet Jr running in a start and park junker ride. At least he'll run all the laps. Better than some hack like Timmy Hill or Blake Koch or some of these other randos who keep turning up at the track.

Awesome domination! Now he's dominating Rally cross too!

He just may be the best driver since.........Danica.

Correct. Since you brought up Kyle in a Piquet thread, did you want to compare the careers of Kyle and Nelson?

Dont sway the topic bruh. You said you didnt like NP Jr because of his driving style & smug attitude, not his career stats. I find that laughable because Kyle is the exact same way.

He's actually not. Kyle's attitude has greatly improved over the last few years.
PK's driving style sucks. He bounces off of people trying to get past them.

Kyle has shown many spurts of maturity as he gets older but theres always something that makes people say "yep. He's at it again". PK bounces off people & Kyle drives through people. What a difference :rolleyes:

Personal attack... what a pathetic low blow when talking about racing dude. I thought you were the "adult" here. Guess that happens when you can longer defend the maturity of a driver who throws guys into the wall at 100 mph under caution & drives through anyone with a faster car than his.

"Throws guys into the wall at 100 mph under caution?" Really?
How can you drive through someone that is going faster than you? Did you fail physics?

Really. Yes. That happened. Shocker :eek:

Go ahead & ask Kahne, Keselowski & Jr. about Busch driving through them after either after or while passing him.

Here's a little from your driver...

Gordon has such of history of over aggressiveness :confused: Spare me.

Clint had roughed him up all year. Gordon just doesnt take **** from the new guys. In hindsight, you didnt see Gordon or Johnson's team come rushing after Clint Bowyer after he took them out at Martinsville?

So...you're going to justify Gordon doing the same thing that you bagged on Kyle for? NOW is it time to bring up the maturity factor???:XXROFL:

Name one time Gordon forced someone into a turn at 100 mph and then hooked them in the right rear quarter panel head on into the wall JUST because he got moved up the track - in a lower series mind you. Name one time Gordon has ever insulted his haters on national TV?

If you are comparing Busch's maturity to Gordon's you are off your rocker. If you are again trying to label me as immature for comparing KyBu to Piquet Jr. in a racing forum, you are a sad excuse for an adult who will stop at nothing to attempt to humiliate a college kid on the internet.

To the moderators, Im sorry this got out of hand. I probably should have never brought it up knowing that its Bobby & he would eventually start shooting personal attacks in a civil discussion.
 
So, I hear thet Piquet Jr. is going to make a cup start at Watkins Glen...fascinating.

Hope he contends for a win against ambrose. That'd be fun to watch.

Honestly, I don't see him doing any better than Blaney could but I guess we'll find out :) I do think he'll be in a dust up with one or more drivers before it's over.

Hold up there. Does this mean I can call you a college kid without you getting all yammery and stammery and calling me Grumpy Gramps? :confused:

:D
