Who has more respect in the garage? Who is least likely to be crashed out by another driver? Yeah that's what i thought.
Burton hasn't always had good equipment. Jr. started with it because daddy paid for it. How many of Jr's starts have ended in wreck that he started? I would say a great deal of them. If Burton had been with RCR for his entire career then we would be comparing these two drivers.
But once again here we are. Let us not forget that this thread is about KY Busch, who is also a better driver then the June bug.
Okay, I've watched you post this inane bullcrap for sometime and I've bit my tongue and held back. But, here it goes.
Keep in mind, I'm an RCR fan and I like Jeff Burton. But Burton ain't a Richard Petty. He's had top of the line equipment damn near his entire career and has run okay. He's no Richard Petty and he's no Mark Martin. All things considered, he hasn't been all that.
Junyer lost a lot of races being with DEI. I can think of 5 or 6 races he would've won had his engine not blown up or his crew not left a lugnut loose or something. He was doomed to failure with that team, mainly because Teresa doesn't know how to manage a team. She knows nothing about loyalty to drivers, sponsors and knows nothing about commitment to performance. She's got two of the best drivers in her cars and the best they can do is an occassional top 5 here and there (and a win if they're lucky). I remember a few years back, Martin Truex was hyped up as "the real deal" and they talked about how he was gonna win 4 or 5 championships. So far, all he's done is win a race, once.
DEI went down the pipes in late 2004, and they've remained there. If you have Mark Martin and Martin Truex on your team and you can't get more than 2 wins, there is a serious problem and it ain't the drivers. I bet if Junyer had been running for Hendrick last year, he probably would've won just as many races as Jeff and Jimmie. And, this year, he would've won Richmond with ease if the 18 car hadn't Busched him out of the way. Actually, Junyer was faster than Denny Hamlin most of the 2nd half of that race. Junyer's not the best driver, but he's a top-5 driver. I can't say the same about Burton, whom I otherwise like.
I used to despise Junyer. Read some of my posts on here. He's matured a lot as a driver, and he's managed to handle the pressure of being a rockstar. I have to give credit where it's due, and Junyer deserves that credit. He's a class act, 100%.
Kyle Busch is a great driver, and I'd like him a lot more if he didn't open his mouth and insert his foot in it after every race. You wreck other drivers in "racing incidents," you better be able to handle it once in a while when they give it back. It's not a problem right now when your teams' engines are producing more horsepower than everyone else, and it really doesn't hurt when FOX and NASCAR go ga-ga at every little thing you do. There's other drivers that would give that boy something if they had the equipment he had.
