How did the 40 car get to start up front? The starting position were by points and McMuarry don't have any points.(till today)
What am I missing?
 
Its called Owner Points....and Sterling was still up there pretty high when Jamie took over !!!!!!!!!!!
 
Use one more extra exclamation point than necessary Flyboy, I dare you.
 
ejl why you getin so mad about the 40 car doing good and dodge complaining anyway no offence to the ts fans here. But poniac has complained just as much as dodge and just as much excuses have been made for pontiac as for dodge. Yet Ts has won 3 races and is the Wc points leader. What just all of a suden made you get mad about this subject??
 
It'll be all different at Martinsville when there are 8 Chevy cars in the top 10.

Won't be any complaints then.
 
I think its all stupid I saw on another site where ford is complaining they need more help there saying chevy has an advantage now yet they lead the manufactor race. they need to give it a rest all of them.
 
nascar needs to set it up where there all equal and leave it at that actually should have been done long ago

To tell you the truth i bet FORD would be the first to complain.
I am not meaning anything against FORD (we have 2 Fords sitting in our drive way) but they always seem to be the first group to complain especialy with Rusty and Penske(nothing against either of them either its just facts). Oh wait Rusty is moving to Dodge so maybe Dodge will have the first complaint? But my pick would still be FORD
 
This common templates crap is ridiculous. It's a direct result of NASCAR's attempts to appease the manufacturers and teams who constantly whine (in other words, everyone). If Brand X's cars are at an aerodynamic disadvantage, let brand X build a better car. Remember the awesome Chrysler corp. winged cars of the late '60s/early '70s (actually I don't, since I had yet to be born) or Chevrolet's ugly-but-effective aero Monte Carlos (and their Pontiac cousins) of the mid '80s? I've enjoyed watching Winston Cup races since I was about six years old (when my mother bought me a toy Richard Petty Pontiac for my birthday), but it's getting ludicrous. I have to snicker whenever I hear the words "stock car". Nothin' stock about 'em. And there hasn't been for quite a while. I realize the last thing NASCAR wants is an F1-style snoozefest dominated by one team, but there has to be a better way.

Whoever you ask first :) Ask anyone in the garage, and they'll tell ya they have a disadvantage :) I mean just think how far ahead Smoke would be if he was driving a Chevy right now ;) :p :)

EJL, are you mad or just asking a question?
 
What I don't get is, if they're going to common templates next year, why do they even bother to distinguish a Pontiac from a Ford from a Chevy from a Dodge? Won't they all be the same from now on? Or does "common templates" mean something else entirely?

Just a shingle hanging over the shop,and a decal on the car. ;)
 
I'm not mad at anyony just asking a question. Some reason I thought drivers pts would decide pole not owners pts, but that makes sense.

What does make me mad is fans that think nascar is supposed to make things even and/or parity. No one but crews & mfgs should be trying to make cars better or faster. Inovation & competition should be left to crews&mfgs. If they can't make the car run get a differen car.

Parity & WWF have the same thing in common, nothing but SHOW, and thats not RACIN.
 
I think the whole disadvantage thing is pretty stupid how can you have a car that dominates an entire wc race and say it has a disadvantage. Every manufactor has had a car win a race this season.
