Texas RACE thread

Jimmie's about to get win #66.

 

[HoneyBadger]

How many times has Jimmie Johnson cut down a tire, smashed the car to hell and still won the race? #perspective

 

[ElliottFan]

JJ and his team are so good I just think the whole deal is over. They dont make mistakes.

 

[SpeedPagan]

GO JOHNSON, 8 MORE LAPS TO GO!

 

[Reck]

You can't compare Johnson to Earnhardt Sr or to Petty or to any of the other greats. They were great drivers in their own respective eras. In THIS era of NASCAR, Jimmie Johnson is the Greatness, DWI.

I agree on that. He is the best of his time.

But that isn't what's being discussed is it? Personally I was talking about being one of the best overall. Someone, most likely Andy went on and changed the subject to include all kinds of irrelevant stats that doesn't work with today's current way of the sport.

 

[FenderBumper]

I'm entertained, I dunno about you. I'm entertained by the race. Honestly I find the interviews to be boring, no matter who's talking.

I wish I were a fan back when they were racing more short tracks, and racing with attitude every where.

I'm entertained, I dunno about you. I'm entertained by the race. Honestly I find the interviews to be boring, no matter who's talking.

Almost all interviews are boring minus Bowyer's with his ADD.

 

[Mr. Gregory]

Not that I necessarily am wishing for this, but if something bad happens to JJ, Junior wins.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

This boys, is what it looks like when NASCAR doesn't intervene in the natural order of a race.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Preach it, DJ!

At least Jimmie and Matt aren't drug-addict felons who would be in jail if they weren't NFL players or juiced up on 'roids.

 

[BobbyFord]

Here's a logical comparison: Do you think Jeff Gordon forgot how to drive when Evernham left?
The answer is no. When Evernham left, the winning combination left.
You win as a team and you lose as a team.

 

[Mr. Gregory]

DJ just hit the nail on the head about this whole personality debate we're having.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Almost all interviews are boring minus Bowyer's with his ADD.

Or Tony Stewart when he's pissed off.

 

[StandOnIt]

Amen D.J.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

reck, I agree with you that JJ will wind up his career as being one of the best of the best. What he and Chad have done, and are currently doing, is downright scary.

 

[DSquad48]

THAT'S HOW IT'S DONE!

 

[HoneyBadger]

Here's a logical comparison: Do you think Jeff Gordon forgot how to drive when Evernham left?
The answer is no. When Evernham left, the winning combination left.
You win as a team and you lose as a team.

When Evernham left, Gordon won another championship and contended for several more.

 

[SpeedPagan]

YEA, JOHNSON WINS AT TEXAS!!!

 

[Mr. Gregory]

Congrats Jimmie!

 

[ToyYoda]

Congrats Jimmie. Kenseth still only 7 back, we'll take it.

 

[BobbyFord]

When Evernham left, Gordon won another championship and contended for several more.

So.....was he AS successful with or without Evernham??????

 

[BCeagles24]

Sucks for Gordon ruined my day. But wanna point out 18th for Kligerman that's a really good run for that kid in his first start.

 

[Reck]

Congrats Jimmie.

 

[FenderBumper]

I'm entertained, I dunno about you. I'm entertained by the race. Honestly I find the interviews to be boring, no matter who's talking.

Even this one?

I do believe JJ is one of the best of all time. I judge that by dominance over the best racing in that era. Sure Petty had some cheap wins, but all that '60 races a year' stuff Andy posted is pure nonsense.

 

[DSquad48]

Spotter: "You should learn how to spell your name doing that"

 

[ElliottFan]

48 made it look easy.

 

[Joniki]

Crap.....

 

[FLRacingFan]

Sucks for Gordon ruined my day. But wanna point out 18th for Kligerman that's a really good run for that kid in his first start.

Beat Dillon, Larson, Patrick, Bayne, and finished only two spots behind Stenhouse. Great debut.

 

[FenderBumper]

Congrats to JJ fans. Now that he has a nice point lead, it will be real tough for Matt to catch him.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Jimmie Johnson's won 24% of the Chase races. That's f'ing unreal.

 

[ToyYoda]

Sucks for Gordon ruined my day. But wanna point out 18th for Kligerman that's a really good run for that kid in his first start.

Kligerman's the real deal. To finish 18th in that God-awful Swan Racing car is saying something.

 

[SpeedPagan]

Now we go to Phoenix!

 

[FenderBumper]

Kligerman's the real deal. To finish 18th in that God-awful Swan Racing car is saying something.

If he learns to avoid bad decisions on the track, he could make it to cup.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Now we go to Phoenix!

And another Jimmie's Great track.

 

[Mr. Gregory]

Junior with that quiet 2nd place.

 

[ElliottFan]

Beat Dillon, Larson, Patrick, Bayne, and finished only two spots behind Stenhouse. Great debut.

I noticed that myself. Good run for Klingerman. Danica finished 25th.

 

[Kyle18fan]

No Kenseth --------------------------- Thank you mr Johnson

 

[ToyYoda]

If he learns to avoid bad decisions on the track, he could make it to cup.

The decision making process should improve with experience.

 

[Reck]

Man Jr. comes in second again.

That ever elusive win. Onto Phoenix.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Jamie: "it was along 500 miles."
Joey: "ha... it always is here at Texas."

'Nuff said
