Texas RACE thread

[FenderBumper]

The decision making process should improve with experience.

It never did in trucks. We'll see.

 

[SuperTex14]

Are they allowed to put new tires on before they measure spoiler height and such? Looks like he shredded the left rear.

 

[Racer1930]

Chad K must have gotten off the radio and headed to v. lane....he wasn't there to tell JJ which way to turn to get to Victory Lane

 

[FenderBumper]

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

'Nuff said

JJ and Carl show what being in shape does for a driver. They always look fresh after these long runs, while some others look ready to fall over.

 

[Kiante]

Cheverolet Fusion?

Damn Joey.

Reminds me of Hamlin that one time. Nearly fainted.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

"Pulling a Jimmie Johnson" should be a lexicon where one simply dominates the last half of a game/season.

 

[Marcingak]

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

Sebastiani Vettel would win like 90% >_>

 

[slash14]

that was quite the performance from jimmie and the 48 team..... still not over yet though

Tony Stewart. 3-time champion. Just sayin'.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Sebastiani Vettel

 

[Racer1930]

Texas would be a "two-pack" race for Dick Trickle.

Soda cookies are the key to success.

Can Ray still play crew chief? Or is the new tech far too advanced for him?

New tech? You mean fuel injection? I think Ray Evernham can handle it.

 

[BobbyFord]

I think he was one of the crew chiefs that was good at figuring out and keeping up with technology. I don't believe it'd take him long to get it back.
He and Jeff just had good chemistry. The competition today is so fierce that chemistry plays a critical part.
JMO.

 

[DSquad48]

LOL the Rick Hendrick interview with the celebration going on in the background was hilarious.

 

[Marcingak]

That trophy looks heavy.

 

[Reck]

Setups and stuff.

I think he's been away for too long to keep up with all the going ons a crew chief has to deal with.

 

[paradigm]

What happened to Jeff Gordon? I missed this race except for the victory lap by JJ.

If could still do it he wouldn't be in the tv booth.

Blew a left front tire early on in the race and hit the wall

 

[Mr. Gregory]

Aww, look at JJ's little girls with their cowboy hats. So cute.

 

[racer8]

Left front tire blew and he hammered the wall, got back out but 180 some odd laps down.

 

[Marcingak]

My bad. Don't know how the "i" got there

 

[Kyle18fan]

Thats not nice Andy

 

[ElliottFan]

At least JJ doesnt look like an idiot in a cowboy hat like that Dillon boy.

 

[Mr. Gregory]

I don't think the same can be said for Chad though. Ha ha.

 

[BobbyFord]

If could still do it he wouldn't be in the tv booth.

Cause why; he needs the money???

 

[BOWTIE GUY]

I don't know if he needs the money, but thing with dodge was a failure and it got worse from there. that tells me jeffy was the star of that duo.

 

[BobbyFord]

Trust me, he doesn't need the money
I do know that Jeffy is less of a star without Ray Evernham.

 

[racer8]

I don't think the same can be said for Chad though. Ha ha.

He looked like Howdy Dooty.

 

[BobbyFord]

He looked like Howdy Dooty.

Is that Heavy Duty's brother?

 

[mreed]

Cheverolet Fusion?

Damn Joey.

I was just checking this thread to see if anyone mentioned that. Nice one, Joey. lol

 

[Kyle18fan]

Pretty happy with my drivers performance today with exception of the speeding penalty. Kyle gave it all he had........ I cant ask for more then that

 

[ToyYoda]

I was just checking this thread to see if anyone mentioned that. Nice one, Joey. lol

Sad thing is Joey has never driven a Chevrolet in NW or Cup.

So anyway, when will the Ford SS be available for sale?

 

[mreed]

Sad thing is Joey has never driven a Chevrolet in NW or Cup.

I think the number 48 Chevy SS got in Joey's head today.

 

[Marcingak]

No matter who the winner is, it's always a boring race when one driver dominates.
