A short track somewhere
11th place at Fontana. I think he's got these Cup cars figured out. Let's just hope he makes his haters eat crow! :beerbang::beerbang:
 
I cant imagine who has given him enough thought to BE a hater. And wasnt Andy just last year talking crap about how Red Bull ****canned Allmendinger to give a ride to Speed? Is my memory correct on that?

Yup, you are 100% correct. My initial answer to Andy's "Let's just hope he makes his haters eat crow" was gonna be, "let us know how the crow tastes, Andy." :D

I've always liked Scott Speed. It's nothing against Scott, it's against Red Bull. Get your facts right and get back to me.

Those are the facts. You were mad that Red Bull dropped Allmendinger to give a ride to Speed. That makes you one of the haters.

Being mad at a team for pulling a successful driver out of a ride simply because the sponsors want someone else in the ride because they were doing good in ARCA makes me a hater of the driver? :confused:

"Hate" is the crap you spew about Danica Patrick on a daily basis.:rolleyes:
 
Dont act so innocent. You said some fairly inflamitory things about Speed when he replaced Allmendinger. Now that he is getting some experience you are trying some revisionist history.

As people have stated(I wasnt a member of the board at the time), not too long ago you despised Kyle Busch as well. Now you want to have his babies.

I think you are just prone to jumping on a bandwagon and hope no one remembers your previous stances on certain drivers.

Care to back this up? I criticized him one time for holding back a championship contender because his teammate was contending for a championship.

I've come around to Kyle Busch, as have many people. I came around because I was complaining about drivers who didn't have personalities while complaining about Kyle Busch. Seemed hypocritical on my part.

Care to respond to this part Mr. Holier Than Thou?:

Danica Patrick is one hideously ugly woman. She is a mediocre driver who is forced down our throats.

My opinion on her has been the same since the beginning. Unlike you, who regularly flip flop on what you think about certain drivers.

Whatever:rolleyes:
 
Scott Speed = Fluke


Lets see how things shake out over the season. Then I'll stop drinking the haterade.
 
If only Scott were Lake's kid. Lake was a journeyman driver, never a threat, but he did win a Cup race. I may miss my bet, but I'd bet that Scott will never win a Cup race, even a rain shortened race or a fuel race.

Smart men/women are able to change their mind when the facts change.

I will take this bet... :beerbang:
 
Speed has a chance as much as most of the 2nd tier drivers. He is much improved thus far, but it's a long season. Allmindinger was much improved last year in a half sponsored crappy Petty Gillette car. He teetered out toward the end of the year, but overall had a decent season in a crappy car. There is hope for Speed, but of course his chances would be better if he could make it inti a better ride. Good luck to these drivers, as I originally did not give them half a chance.
 
It will be interesting to see what direction Red Bull goes in after the season. Scott Speed is a free agent. So are Harvick, Kahne, Hamlin, Sadler, etc. I could see them going after a Kasey Kahne fairly aggressively. They have the $$.

That would be interesting. I could see them going after Hamlin as well.
