DODGE CHARGER 500 LINEUP
Kasey Kahne wins the Bud Pole Award for the race at Darlington
tomorrow night. He was almost a full mile per hour faster than
runner-up Ryan Newman. 3 rookies finish up the top 5. They are:
3rd Clint Boyer, 4th David Stremme and 5th Denny Hamlin.

[Sutsu]

Kasey's on a bit of a tear this year, isn't he? Makes me wonder why Newman and those Penske folks bothered toying with the old Intrepid nose if the Evernham guys are making it work (at least in Kasey's case).

[Beeman99]

Well, all three of Kahne's wins have come from the pole, so we'll see if he makes it 4 in a row.

[SpotcheckBilly]

Love Darlington, it's probably my favorite track. Looking forward to tonight.

[Bunny™]

Ford is apparently not happy at all. If the Toyota's are competitive at all, Mikey is gonna have a pretty good looking team.
He owns some Ford dealerships too apparently. It'll be interesting to see how that works out.
Who's gonna be in the 88 next year? I say throw Ward Burton in it. Or Ricky Craven.

http://jayski.com/teams/88.htm

[Sutsu]

Very interesting... Any word on whether or not UPS is going with DJ?

[NORTONnFRIENDS]

I feel bad for Rusty. You know he's dying to be at Darlington but he has to cover the Indy 500 quals. Nice, thats gotta suck.

[Beeman99]

Very interesting... Any word on whether or not UPS is going with DJ?

According to Waltrip he already has sponsorship in place for both cars next year and as of now UPS isn't a part of it. Now RYR said that UPS isn't locked up for next year, and you know that UPS and DJ have great relationship. To me UPS and DJ is like Bud and Jr, Home Depot and Smoke, Dupont and Gordon, and Miller and Rusty were. I wouldn't be surprised to see UPS there in some fashion. Great exposure for them with Toyota starting next year. Also read that Bill Elliot is going to drive 5 races this year for MWR (Mikeys Team) in Monte Carlo's this year and those cars will be reskinned with Toyota next year, and they are all cars built in house by Waltrip for the Cup series. Should be interesting next year, and I see Dodge losing out with Toyota coming in.

I'd rather see Bif win over JJ anyday.:action-sm

[Ballbuster1]

Missed the race yesterday. I went to A/C to see Norton & Attell.
I heard the end of the race on XM on my way home. 1st win for
Biffle this year. About time considering all the races he's done
well in but couldn't wrap it up.

It should be interesting to see how well Toyota does next year.
They've had a few years of developing a program thru the truck
series so they should be competitive right out of the gate.

[medium_rare]

I think Toyota is going to have a decent chance at the COT races since all the teams and manufacturers will be learning how to build those cars and set them up; if there's any distinctive differences.
I think Yates will try to make a run at Casey Mears to have a younger driver w/experience especially if UPS stays onboard to compete with Hamlin and FedEx. And who knows by July or August who will be out of a ride or willing to change teams, just look at Busch and McMurray last year.
It was nice to see another race that had a long green flag run to the finish. One of these days Robby Gordon is gonna finish respective to how he runs.

[txman]

casey mears might drive the 88. great win by biff, anybody over heindricks team. jj should have been suspended all ready

NEXTEL CHALLENGE

1st is the Open. Who will be able to race their way into the challenge?
Scott Riggs is on the pole with rookie Denny Hamlin on the outside.
FULL LINE-UP HERE (http://www.nascar.com/races/cup/2006/103/data/lineup.html)

Then the big one. The big run for the bucks.
Kasey Khane and Jimmie Johnson start on the front row.
FULL LINE-UP HERE (http://www.nascar.com/races/cup/2006/105/data/lineup.html)

The track has been repaved since last year so this will be a
good chance to test their cars on the new pavement in preperation
for the Coke 600 next weekend.

[Ballbuster1]

JJ WINS THE CHALLENGE
Yes, once again Jimmy Johnson just rules at Charlotte. He restarted
the final segment 11th after the inversion and made his way back to
the front to win in a big way over Happy and Gordon.
Half the 20 car field never saw a checkered flag, but Scott Riggs
who raced his way in from the open was 10th and Kyle Petty did
get the fan vote and finish 9th. Good for Kyle and the Victory Junction
Camp who will be getting a nice check from this.
Smoke and Matt Kenseth were at it again as Matty pinched of
Stewart and they both wrecked. This could get ugly later.

Not going to the 600, but I got the feeling my wife has gotten us
set up to go to the Atlanta race in the fall. ( she sucks at hiding e-mails)

[medium_rare]

All Evernham front row for the Coke 600, Scott Riggs won the pole and Jeremy Mayfield is starting 2nd, mainly because he qualified last after nightfall. Mr. Lowe's is starting 3rd.

Unfortunately, we're gonna have to hear DW cry like a sissy for 4-5 hours because Mikey missed the race by plenty. Three great races to see on Sunday, Monaco in the morning, Indy in the afternoon, and Charlotte at night.

[medium_rare]

Forget the crying bit, I just saw on Jayski that Mikey and NAPA bought Cope's ride for Sunday. I'm sure that cost them a few hundred bucks.

[Ballbuster1]

COCA-COLA 600 LINEUP
As medium_rare pointed out, it's an all Evernham Dodge
front row for the big one. Jimmy Johnson is 3rd followed
by rookie JJ Yeley and then Bobbie Labonte.

I was pissed too. How the hell do you stop too soon and when you know you can't make it on one more stop. I think he had a top 5 car at the end of the night if he didn't have to make that extra stop. I"m just glad Jimmie Johnson didn't win and how about that 15 car. Great run for Paul Menard. :clap:

[Ballbuster1]

KASEY WINS THE 600
As RandomNY mentioned, Khane beat out JJ for the win. He
finaly ended the dominance of the 48 car at Charlotte.
Carl Edwards, Mark Martin and Matt Kenseth finished the top
5 making for a stong finish by Roush cars. DJ and Smoke were
victims of early crashes and finished 43 & 42nd.

Menard will be interesting to watch in the 15 car next year. Truex has a ton of pressure on him to succeed in the 1 because of the two busch championships, but Menard is under the radar and doing well because of it. With Jr running well, Truex getting there, and Menard in the 15, I can see better days ahead for DEI. Oh, and is anyone else getting sick of hearing how Jr fucked over Mikey last year and that's why he left. Last I checked DEI took Jr's cars, crew, and crew chief away from him just too keep the Napa deal and in a way prove that Mikey really isn't that good.

I agree. Things are looking up for DEI in the coming years. As far as Jr. fucking over Mikey. Its always DW saying something about it. Its his brother so take that for what its worth. In a way I think Mikey fucked DEI. They wanted him to stay for at least 3 years and he wanted a 1 year deal because he new he was gonna run a Toyota and had every intention on leaving. THat was his decision. He had no one to blame but himself for the position he is in right now.

[Sutsu]

Dale Jarret probably had a few choice words for his spotter last night after the race.

[Bud8Weiser]

Dale Jarret probably had a few choice words for his spotter last night after the race.
I felt really bad for him. But then again I"m sure he really doesn't care. He's gone from RYR at the end of the season. I'm sure he was home watching it on his couch by lap 50.

[Sutsu]

Even if he was home that quick, the season's not even half way over. If he's gotta deal with bad help like this almost as a backlash for not resigning with RYR, that's a bad way to go and would not make for a nice transition to his new ride.

I dont' think Michael is worried about Jarretts additude. I'm sure Dale was pissed that he wrecked cuz I'm sure he wants to run well reguardless but back when things were good at RYR it probably would have bothered him more. I would imagine he was pissed though because they never got to talk to him afterwards.

[Sutsu]

Oh no, I doubt Waltrip has any problems about Jarret's attitude beyond having a bad last season might carry over to next, but I'm more thinking the next 6 months or so might be hell for DJ.

[Bud8Weiser]

I think it could hurt him as far as momentum going into a new season with a new team. Any word on a sponsor him yet?

[Ballbuster1]

I haven't heard of a sponser for DJ's ride next year yet.
As for Mikey, I'm sure DEI just wanted him out. They were
bringing in Truex this year and Menard will be full time next
year. I doubt Mikey would have shared the car with Paul this year.

[Beeman99]

I think it could hurt him as far as momentum going into a new season with a new team. Any word on a sponsor him yet?

I remember when Mikey announced DJ coming over he said he had sponsership for both cars and UPS wasn't one of them. I really find it hard to believe that UPS would just break ties with him just because he left RYR. NAPA followed Mikey into the unknown so I can't see why UPS wouldn't do the same. It'll be interesting none the less as Mikey might have the same results he had with DEI when he's running Toyota and DJ will have the same results or worse.

Mikey was Dale Sr's choice and I'm sure Theresa(sp), Jr, and Eury finally wanted the 15 to win, not run at the back of the pack. Menard will be hard pressed to have many top tens next year, but he'll run better than Mikey did the last few years.

ANOTHER Dodge front row? What the crap man? You'd almost think they were a competetive manufacturer.

Lineup shows Ricky Rudd driving the 20... will he be doing the whole race instead of taking over for Tony at the first yellow? REALLY shitty starting spots for DJ and JJ.

[Ballbuster1]

JJ spun out during his run. How he managed to not hit a wall was
actually quite impressive. That's a tough thing to do at Dover due
to the banking.

Looks like Ricky will be doing the whole race in the 20 car.

Tony is going to practice the car tomorrow and drive it until the first caution on Sunday, then Rudd is going to take over. They are trying to get Rudd to drive at Pocono as well but I guess he's got plans with his family and as he said on Nascar.com. "Pocono or Divorce". Have to wait and see.

First off on Jimmie Johnsons spin. :clap: Fan-fucking-tastic save. He DID some mighty fine driving to keep that car off the wall.

Second. I was still under the belief that Rudd practiced and qualified it, but Tony will still start it. Rudd qualified it just for pit selection. Tony will have to go to the back to start and hope for an early caution then Rudd will get in and finish the rest of the race. This is what I had heard as of Trackside. Nascar.com still reports it that way too. It says that Tony will try to turn a few practice laps tomorrow. I guess we'll see though. Great qualifying effort by Rudd. He looks like he's been running Cup this whole time. I just hope for Smokes sake that Rudd can keep it up for 400 miles.

Nice swap between Stewart & Rudd. They managed to stay on the

foreword as the race progresses.

I was pissed at the fact that tony stayed out and removed all his gear under caution . Is nascar going to let you take your helmet and belts off when a yellow flag comes out to comb your hair or itch your ear. Someone better bitch about this shit, quite often wrecks happen under yellow.

I doubt anything will come of it. First, it's not uncommon to take
the stuff off before coming in to speed up the process and second,
Rudd has gone a lap down now. If he had worked his way to the front
and had a shot at winning I think some one would have said something.
Now that he's no threat, why bitch? Other teams may need the same
chance to swap out at another race.

[KantSpelGi]

The fact that he was a lap down means nothing.
he was on the race track removing stuff.
With nascar bitching about a hood pin being unsafe how do you let drivers remove there helmets on the track!

[Ballbuster1]

KENSETH WINS AT DOVER
A great finish. Lots of racing to the end with Matty beating Jamie
McMurray and Harick to the checkers. I love racing at Dover.
Jeff Burton and the Shrub finish in the top 5 with Johnson rebounding
to the #6 spot after a very poor start.
With that finish, Johnson retains the points lead over Matty with
Mark Martin in 3rd place.

Vickers has gotten permission from Rick Hendrick to bail at the end

I really felt bad for Jeff Burton but he did it to himself. I think he was the only one who had anything for Denny. Also Gordon dropping out of the top 10 is great. That was one hell of a hit too.

What the hell was smokes deal today, he's damn lucky Boris doesn't have a temper. Boris should have blown his ass into the fence when he had him on his bumper.

[hangoverbuffet]

Oh no, hes lucky that Smoke is a nicer kinder gentler smoke or he would have put his ass in the SF Bay. i like Boris and all but when it comes to racing you either are behind smoke and a friend... or a enemy of smoke which that is someone in front of him.

[TDRacing13]

I normally like the way smoke races he's smart and agressive. Its one thing to put the bumper to someone if your faster then them, its another thing to drive in balls deep right into their door.

GORDON WINS IN CALI.
Like him or not, he does well on the road courses. Jeff wins
his 9th road victory and 1st of this year. Stewart, another
favorite to win ended up 28th because of a motor going south.
Boris Said was the top "road ringer" coming in 9th.
Great run by Terry Labonte coming in 3rd by stretching fuel
mileage way further than anyone thought possible.

Fuck i can talk racing 24/7 I even have a column on one of the links below. But Damn if Jr did not wax their ass tonight. And i think my man smoke will do it tommrow... I hope.

And Burton did not cause that wreck. The tire blew which no one can be blamed for.
I hope Smoke has a good run tomorrow night as well. I'd like to see him Jr. and Truex finish 1,2,3.

I don't see how anyone can blame Burton. A blow out is not his fault. Shit happens. It was an accident. Jeff Burton is one of the cleanest drivers on the ciruit.

[Ballbuster1]

Great race tonight. Jr kicked ass. I hope his success in the
Busch race translates into a good run in the Cup race tomorrow.

[hangoverbuffet]

its what team that shows up. Will it be the Jr team that works together or the one that falls apart when the pressure is on

[Beeman99]

All together now, JUUUUUUUNIOR!!!! What a dominating run in the Busch race. He actually drove to a 5 second lead at one point.


I missed the race:icon_frow I'll have to catch it later this week on Speed, fucking FX isn't shown up here, so I'm SOL for 95% of the Busch Races.

[Bud8Weiser]

WOOHOO. Congrats to Smoke. :clap: He had a great car tonight. Although Jr. didn't have a real good car tonight he still managed to get a 13th out of it. It could have been a lot worse. It got him to 3rd in the points too after Mark Martin wrecked and Kasey Kahne wasn't good tonight. Gordon getting wrecked was just a bonus. All in all a good race but, could they have had anymore commercials. Holy shit. There were two times where they were at commercial came back for one lap and right back to commercial.

[hangoverbuffet]

Ooh Helll Yeah Tony Kicked Some Ass Tonight

[Ballbuster1]

SMOKE WINS IN DAYTONA
Tony Stewart had the fastest car of the night. He led the most laps
and was strong all night long. The Shrub and his brother came in 2nd
and 3rd respectively and the big surprise finish was a 4th place by
polesitter Boris Said. A late crash pulled Biffle and Jeff Gordon
out of the top 10 in points and Jr climbs to 3rd place.

I have no respect for either of the Busch brothers. They've both

RAMONE!!!!! Check Gordon's new girlfriend for an Adam's apple!






O.k. I admit she does look good.

But I'm sure there a few good lookin trannies out there.

No shit about the commercial breaks, just wait now that NBC is back, it'll be worse. That's why I have Nascar in Car, no commercials and while it's not in HD it allows me to watch the whole race uninterupted. What really pissed me off is when it was green flag racing they were yapping about "memorable" moments and shit like that.

Nice to see Smoke win, Jr could've had a good car but there was a ton of talk on his in car after the race with Tony Jr about how they just couldn't hit the track bar and air pressures right, and he sounded more than a little pissed about it. Still even with the 13th place finish he's up to 3rd in points and he did gain some ground on JJ. Feel for Labonte, had a great car just to get wrecked by JJ. It was beautiful to see Gordon get wrecked and then hear him whine afterwards about it.

[Beeman99]

I have no respect for either of the Busch brothers. They've both

Agreed, but I do give Kurt credit, he is "trying" to be a better person, and he's learning to take shit in stride. I still don't like him but he's better than his shitdick brother.

[hangoverbuffet]

Next year boys, in the chase ESPN/ABC will take over and the commericals will be on split screen with what ever is going on at the race track so you don't miss anything... its called side by side. ESPN and ABC are getting all the Busch Races which will be cool too i think. But i still think out of the two who have the racing now, FOX annoucers are better, I know larry Mac fucks up often but damnit Benny Parsons just don't know what the hell he is talking about anymore.

And yes Kyle Busch is a Shitdick but no matter how hard Kurt tries to change his image he will be NASCARS third biggest asshole behind Johnson and Gordon. Its going to take a major event for Kurt to ever become a fan favorite. Some one will have to Royally Screw him over like Rusty did to Darrell in the 89 All Star Race. Ha ha if kurt wins a race and jumps in to the crowd it would be like a prison riot...people trying to kill him.

I love it when Gordo Crashes and you hear the fans cheer. It puts a smile to my face like Jimmy gets at the sign of a Tranny

It always gets worse when NBC takes over. I think I"m gonna get trackpass so I can check stuff out on there during the commercials. I think I can get it for free with comcast. I felt bad for Labonte too. IF it wasn't for bad luck that guy wouldn't have any at all.

I"m not much for the IRL races but I do like that they have the side by side. The only thing that will piss me off is that all the Busch races will be on ESPN 2 cuz it will be into College football season and they're not gonna put Nascar busch races on in place of college football. So I'll miss the last third of the busch series cuz I don't have ESPN2.

I only get to watch about 8 Busch races a year up here as no one broadcasts them. I am looking foward to the side by side view for the races during commercials, far better than the shit FOX and NBC do right now.

BP reminds me of the insane grandpa hanging around the turkey at xmas. Wally isn't as bad as BP, but I'd take DW and Larry Mac over them any day.

[hangoverbuffet]

If nascar or tony stops the fence climb... that will be a huge mistake. I like it and i think it is much better than those dumbass burnouts

[Sutsu]

It's just his unique way of celebrating. Some people like the traditional burnouts. Edwards does his backflips.
Uhm... why did you think they were going to stop his fence climbing?

[Bud8Weiser]

Bestwick is the only one on that crew worth anything and they stuck him in the pits. Go figure. Weber is an ass. Put the fucking note cards down you shithead. BP is a dope that only makes noises and groans throughout the race when not calling Jamie McMurray, Jamie Mac Marry. Wally has no room to speak considering he's never won anything. Give me the Fox guys anyday. But leave Bergren at home. That guy is the most annoying fuck. He always comes out of left field with his stupid fucking questions and comments. And that hat he wears is ridiculous. Although if I had my choice I'd rather just watch the whole race with the sound like the Crank it up segment.

[Bunny™]

Alan Kulwicki did his first polish victory lap at Phoenix in 1988 to the disdain of NASCAR, driving backwards on the track..even after all of the other cars were off the track..was something that hadn't been done before. After the NAPA 500 at Atlanta in 1992 when he won the Cup, it was very warmly recieved by everyone...fans..NASCAR...me...
Now it's a common occurance after races. Rusty Wallace won the NAPA 500 in 1993 and Earnhardt won the Cup (the same year Kulwicki was killed on his way to Bristol). The 2 and 3 cars side by side, holding 28 (Davey Allison) and 7 (Kulwicki) flags out the window was one of the most emotional victory laps in NASCAR history.....and drivers still do it.
Edwards flips,
Harvick does the smokiest burnouts,
and Tony climbs the fence onto the flagstand....let it be.
With the onset of the COT with the jap/spic/colored spoilers on the backs, we need to hold on to these traditions.


and I like Benny. always have. He's been made to be more of a 'grandfatherly clown' on NBC/TNT...but he was great on the ABC/ESPN telecasts.

and bring back Buddy Baker, Dr Jerry Punch, and that other guy who's still with ESPN but I cant remember his name....he was great too.

I find myself watching the network broadcast when they actually show it with Jr's In Car in the corner on the picture in picture on my tv, and then I swap it when fucking FOX/NBC go to commercial. I find that makes it bearable, but I'm looking forward to next year with the IRL type broadcasts.

I don't mind Bergren, but it seems like the only reason he's still there is because he's been there forevery. The Fox guys aren't bad, but I'd bring Bestwick over to it and fuck NBC. They try to do some fucking "class" broadcast, but they seem to forget they are broadcasting to a bunch of beer drinking assholes (which I'm proud to say I'm part of) and it makes you feel like you should be watching a F1 race. At least DW and that crew actually are still from the old school, even if they babble too much

BTW, I still don't like Despain hosting Inside Nextel Cup, why the fuck would you take Bestwick out of the equation. I remember his last show and Mikey saying that he thought it was bullshit as well live on the air(take out the word bullshit mind you)

[Beeman99]

NASCAR may not like the unique victory celebrations, but they will continue to allow them as it draws the fans in and makes the fans feel like the drivers are just like them. Nascar and Hockey are the two sports IMO that still allow shit like that and it should never change.

Dave Despain is a douchebag. Windtunnel. More like windbag. They should have never taken Bestwick off that show in place of him.

I guess one good thing about the change in broadcasting starting next year is that FOX has the next 8 Daytona 500s and ABC will have the Chase. They pretty much gave the big fuck you to NBC/TNT. :clap:

What I really hate about Despain is the fact that when Mikey and Schrader go off topic a bit he stops them dead, whereas Bestwick would let them go and sum it up with some quip that would make me roar. I do agree Benson needed to be replaced as a full time member, but Despain is a douche.

Fox's coverage of the 500 is great, whereas NBC's was shit, as was proved again this year. And I love the fact TNT is gone, means I don't have to search for the race up here.

[hangoverbuffet]

Yeah I love the Mikey/ Kenny Stories, those are the reasons i watch that show. Despain is good only on his show and don't kiss the ass of fox and nascar. However Fox how shitty the crew is, it is still a better show than those bastards on NBC/TNT. I am so thankful that ESPN is coming back next year. They should know what in the hell they are doing.

[Ballbuster1]

It's not Nascar that doesn't want Stewart to climb fences. He said
in an interview that going down into the crowd was a mistake and he
doesn't think he should be taking chances like that anymore.
"I don't know why I do half the stupid stuff I do," said Stewart, who started climbing fences following his Pepsi 400 victory last July. "I felt good after the end of the race until I got stupid and went up the flag stand again.

I just hope the ESPN broadcasters have more of a clue than the SportsCenter guys. They are freakin clueless. They do a terrible job of reporting on the race anyway but then when they do they just sound like a bunch of dopes. Especially when they don't even know how to pronouce the names of the drivers. I'd rather them not report on it at all then make a joke out of it while doing it. We get it SportsCenter. Its Nascar and you don't care.

[hangoverbuffet]

Fuck Sportscenter, it went to hell once keith obermann left. The sports center theme should be: Sucks at life....got the aids. (using the same sound as they do when it comes on ha ha)

and as for Tony, He needs to do something similar to climbing the fence, thats how he has went from where kurt busch is to almost as popular as dale jr is. The fans are the most important thingin this sport and when a driver figures that out. he will go far like the champ.

[Calbucfan1]

TNT is still gonna have racing but only a few in the summer.
I found the breakdown of next years TV package

NASCAR expands its relationship with News Corp as FOX becomes the official home of the Daytona 500. FOX’s broadcast agreements for the NFL Playoffs, the Super Bowl, the Bowl Championship Series and American Idol provide an excellent opportunity for cross promotion around the Daytona 500 held each year in mid-February. The deal also includes a brand-new comprehensive multi-media distribution program which includes Internet, wireless and broadband platforms. “FOX is extremely excited to extend its relationship with NASCAR for another eight years, and come 2007 be known as the official television home of the Daytona 500, by far the most watched auto race in this country,” said FOX Sports President Ed Goren. “Our production team has done an amazing job over the last five years to put NASCAR broadcasts on par with America's most popular sports, and we look forward to pushing the production envelope further as we move forward.”

SPEED will increase NASCAR programming as the continuing exclusive home for the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series as well as the new home for the Gatorade Duels, NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series Pit Crew Challenge and NASCAR Nextel Cup Series All-Star Challenge.

NASCAR looks forward to continued great exposure and coverage of the sport from TNT, which will be entering its 22nd year with NASCAR, the longest continuous relationship of any media company with the sport. TNT will broadcast six consecutive races in the middle of the season including the July 4th weekend extravaganza, the Pepsi 400 from Daytona.

ABC and ESPN will provide comprehensive coverage of NASCAR on their numerous outlets. The final 17 NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Series events will be broadcast on ABC or ESPN with the last 10, the Chase for the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup, on ABC. All NASCAR Busch Series races will be broadcast on ABC, ESPN or ESPN 2. In addition, ESPN will bring NASCAR coverage to its full suite of media including its cable TV networks, ESPN360, Mobile ESPN, ESPN.com and affiliated international networks throughout the world. “This agreement totally embraces NASCAR’s multimedia future,” said George Bodenheimer, ESPN Inc. and ABC Sports president and co-chairman of Disney Media Networks. “NASCAR is a strong and growing property, and the ESPN of the 21st century – an array of new media platforms and content outlets reaching fans wherever and however they consume sports – will take the sport to even higher levels of exposure and growth. ABC Sports first exposed sports fans to the racing excitement of NASCAR in the 1960s, and ESPN and the sport grew up together in the 1980s and ‘90s. Our tradition is rich, and our future is bright. To NASCAR, its drivers and fans we say, ‘Welcome back.”
“NASCAR thanks NBC for its stellar coverage and commitment to the sport for the past five years and looks forward to another great year in 2006,” Glover concluded.

[hangoverbuffet]

We gotta unite and this asshole wants to know if we think NASCAR is a sport. We should fuck up his vote and tell him what we think.

[Turtle]

Is there anyone here who is not happy that the hall of fame is in NC cause it just makes me happier than Ant when he shoots someone

UPS is following DJ over to MWR, not a big shocker there, and if NAPA is following Mikey, then who's going to drive the Burger King car? I'd find it hard to believe either UPS or NAPA would be happy sharing primary sponsorship on a car.

[Ballbuster1]

SHEETROCK 400 LINEUP
Jeff Burton gets the Bud Pole Award for the next race at
Chicagoland Speedway. Brian Vickers makes it an all Chevy
front row. Khane, Harvick, Johnson and Bobby Labonte round
out the first 3 rows. Hopefully Bobby can get a decent
finish out of this one. He really deserves it.

FULL LINEUP HERE (http://www.nascar.com/races/cup/2006/18/data/lineup.html)

[Ballbuster1]

UPS is gonna follow DJ over to Mikey Waltrip Racing. That's a pretty
big deal for both the team and Dale. Since he has stated that he isn't
planning on racing for alot longer it really shows how much UPS likes
being associated with DJ. You can bet this is really pissing off Yates.

NUTCAR STORY HERE (http://www.nascar.com/2006/news/headlines/cup/07/07/djarrett.ups.2007/index.html)

I beileve it will be Ward Burton in the burger king/dominos car. UPS has signed for the lenght of Dales Contract which is 2 years. Yates is not that pissed off they knew a while ago that UPS would leave. I would imagine and i have heard rumors that TIDE will be going to yates. I have heard that ward burton has been talking to yates. Common denominator ward burton ha ha

Good run by Casey Mears in the Busch race today. I thought for sure
that he would either run out of gas or get beaten by Edwards.

That was a good job by him. I thought the same thing as you. Too bad he ran out of fuel on the cool down lap and didn't even get to smokem off. But congrats to him. I'm glad he finally got his first win. Casey Mears pulls of the weekend sweep at Chicagoland? Find out at 11.

[hangoverbuffet]

ah but a win is a win... unless you are a cynical fan like me ha ha who says he has not won a race by beating someones ass with out gas milage or leading when the rain falls. But a win is a win and i won't take it from him. I just think he will have the weight of the world on him when he goes to the 25 car and it goes to hell like it did with brian wreckers

[Bud8Weiser]

WOW. Jeff Gordon is a son of a bitch. Nice win asshole. He just flat wrecked Kenseth. I've always hated Gordon but man does that make it worse. Good points day for Jr. :clap: Good run for Happy too. Sucks that Smoke ran out of fuel.

Gordon is a douche, and you could tell when AB was talking to him after that he wrecked him on purpose. Not a big deal, Kenseth will get him later, that's a given. If Jr and his crew could've made a few changes midway through they could've won the damn thing, he was flying there.

[Ballbuster1]

I missed the last half of the race since I went to the movies but I
did tape it. I'll watch it later. Sounds like another cheapshot win by
Gordon. Watch for payback by Matty some time later this year.

Kenseth did let up a bit when he was under Mears, but not enough that would have prevented Gordon from letting up as well in time. He had the faster car and could've passed him easily the next lap. During the Victory Lane interview Gordon basically said "He didn't mean to wreck me at Bristol, and I didn't mean to wreck him here" The guy is a hell of a driver, but he is a little shitdick with his attitude.

[hangoverbuffet]

Jeff is a cunt, no question about it. Someone needs to kick his ass. I wish i was one of those fans throwing shit... id throw a brick at his homo ass. Gordon needs to get aids. plain and simple... matt kenseth is a pussy because he should have went down there and kicked gordons ass.... like Harvick or Smoke would have done

ha ha time for a cheap and shameless plug, i wrote an article about this on this website http://www.stockcarreview.com/

[hangoverbuffet]

I think that Juan Montoya or what ever his name is, is in for a rude awakeing when he steps up from "gokarts" to the big boy league. I think once he enters bristol cocky and smug he will leave asking Ramone for help finding his car because it will be stuck in the wall.

As for the hole/cunt. Danicunt Patrick I don't think she can cut it in nascar either. She has not won a race in IRL so what makes her think she can come to NASCAR and do any better. Shes here for the money... WHORE. They will send her packing her sweet ass back to where ever she came from.

[Ballbuster1]

Montoya's only stock-car experience came in 2003 when he and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon "exchanged" race cars for an exhibition at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Montoya drove Gordon's Chevrolet while Gordon took a spin in Montoya's F-1 car.
I remember watching the special on this. Gordon did great in the F-1 car
and Montoya didn't fare so well in Gordon's car. I'm sure he'll need a
big learning curve to compete in Nascar.
Then there were reports of Danica Patrick considering a move to Nextel Cup from Indy Racing League team Rahal-Letterman Racing.
She really hasn't been a stand out in IRL except for the fact that she's
a woman. I don't see her doing that well in Nascar either.
They are both doing it for the cash. Nascar is now the big money sport.

[hangoverbuffet]

I don't know if its about money for Montoya.... F 1 pays more than NASCAR way more so he might be taking a pay cut.

[Sutsu]

I don't know if its about money for Montoya.... F 1 pays more than NASCAR way more so he might be taking a pay cut.

It may not just be the base salary, it maybe the endorsements and the greater recognition too.

[Ballbuster1]

It may not just be the base salary, it maybe the endorsements and the greater recognition too.
Yup. F-1 just doesn't have the following in the US that Nascar does.
The money that is being generated from endorsements, apparel
and accessories sales is really big now. People in the other series
are now starting to see where the big money is in the US and it is Nascar.

[hangoverbuffet]

F-1 is world wide know and big as world cup soccer, i just think that Juan wetback (ring inappropriate bell) had no where else to go and in his mind he thinks he is going to bring his skill and whip up on the rednecks

[Deadhead]

Jeff is a cunt, no question about it. Someone needs to kick his ass. I wish i was one of those fans throwing shit... id throw a brick at his homo ass.


Hey, Hey, Hey, MISTER!!!!!! Didn't you hear Benny AND Wally say that those Chi-town fans were , I think the term was, 'no account'!
You dont want to get on their bad side!

As for the hole:
I think she'll do as good as tha last one.



What was her name?

[hangoverbuffet]

Benny and wally are not qualifed to call the drag race across the border of illegal immagrants. Erin Crocker is the new hole of NASCAR she drives trucks and some busch(hold your naughty thoughts you crazy kids) and ARCA, Dodge and Betty Crocker pump a lot of money in to her.(Insert your woman doing woman's work jokes here) But they also have a minority program so blacks,and mexicans can steal... i mean drive race cars in NASCAR

That other hole i can't think of her name either, but her husband changes tires for Dale JR.

[Calbucfan1]

Everytime I have seen Erin Crocker race she is causing a wreck. I still love it when JR blasted Shawna Robinson after she wrecked him at Texas a few years back, nothing about her being a woman but you could tell that is what he wanted to say.

As for Danica I don't think she could cut it in Nextel Cup or even Busch since most of the time Cup guys are driving Busch. She never contends for a win in IRL so what makes her and her dad think she would even be in the running. If she came to Nextel Cup she would be in the back with Derrike Cope.

[hangoverbuffet]

thats the woman, Shawna Robinson, her husband was or still is a tire changer for dale jr thats why he did not call her a dumb cunt... well that an the penelty he would get for saying dumb(lol give me those ribs you)

The August Bristol race kicks ass. My uncle won tickets to the race in 2004 and I got to go. I have been to California Speedway numerous times and Sonoma but that trip to bristol is the better than all of them combined. JR won both the Busch race and Cup race that weekend it kicked ass. If you do go be prepared because it can be loud as hell.

[hangoverbuffet]

i have been to many races including the 2001 daytona 500 noise is the part of the fun

Hell yeah noise is part of the fun. At bristol the noise awesome. I hope to go to the 500 someday.

[hangoverbuffet]

The 500 was awesome untill the last lap. I gotta find that picture my friend who went with us. he took of tony stewart (who i hated back then) Upside down in the air while cars are going under him during the big pile up that day

[Mother Shucker]

I have two words for ya Smoke:

HA HA!

Tony, get the tampon out before you go on TV and whine like a bitch about getting spun out. You of all people should shut the fuck up.

[hangoverbuffet]

i just want to say that Kyle Busch is a douche bag and that I hope Ryan Newman gets aids from Jeff gordon. Nah mother shucker he was just saying it will out cursing... its hard.... i don't think i could be a nascar driver. cause id cuss and fuss and kick someones ass.

SHRUB WINS AT NHIS
Kyle Busch wins an overtime finish for this race. Roush
took the next 3 spots with Edwards, Biffle and Martin
leading Harvick for the top 5 spots. Big drop in the
point standings for Smoke who got wrecked earlier and
finished 37th. But he still finished ahead of JR who
dropped a motor and finished dead last.

Dude, Stewert the pole smoker spins everyone in NASCAR, and cries every time someone spins him. What a pussy. Hope he stays out of the chase.

[Bud8Weiser]

Awful. What a shitty race. Most of the guys I like had shitty days and then fuckin Kyle Busch wins. What a waste. I should have done other stuff I had to do. Hopefully next week is better.

[hangoverbuffet]

Nah other than Matt kenseth i can;t name a person this year he has spun. Gordon however is the asshole who crashes everyone and then cries on nascars shoulder when someone fucks him over... Lets just say bristol is coming soon and im hopeful that he will get his

Yeah all the guys i like, all of them but harvick and burton had bad days. atleast kurt busch crashed and ryan newman was dumped

[WetChicken]

I guess I need to get on the board more often, I didn't even realize there was a NASCAR thread!

Did anyone see the show references that were sent to the Sprint text messaging thing before the race?

[hangoverbuffet]

What did it say?

[WetChicken]

Let's see, there was "Hi from Steve from Yellowstone" and "I love Ramone and his hog".

[Ballbuster1]

Let's see, there was "Hi from Steve from Yellowstone" and "I love Ramone and his hog".
Nice. I was busy working on the house and missed that part.

[hangoverbuffet]

holy shit... i gotta do that at martinsville this oct its RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOTHERFUCKING CHASE OH HELL YEAH

[Sutsu]

I dunno who said it a few weeks back, but Dave Despain really sucks goat balls on Inside Nextel Cup. Mikey Waltrip really wanted to go off on Robby Gordon and Despain kept swerving the conversation away from it as fast and hard as he could. He's like the show's hole almost. Eeehyugh.

I'm embarassed that I actually share a birthday with this jackass.

[WetChicken]

Before the race starts, watch for the yellow screen to pop up. It tells you to send a text message to 31233 and that's how I got them up.
I tried "RAMONE!!! Put #24 in the wall", but they must have screened that out.

[hangoverbuffet]

Yeah im going to try to get something with Ramone when i go to the race... does anyone know much it cost?

[WetChicken]

Yeah im going to try to get something with Ramone when i go to the race... does anyone know much it cost?

They state that normal messaging costs apply, so that is according to your plan with your cell provider. I have 250 built into my plan, so it didn't cost me anything extra.
Can you normally see the big screen from where you sit? Watch for the yellow screen to appear.

[hangoverbuffet]

I don't know but i do know Elliott Sadler is leaving that shit hole Yates

[Sutsu]

That sucks for Yates, but c'mon, his team hasn't been really competitive in awhile so it's no wonder why both driver's bailed. I don't think swapping Mayfield for Sadler will do any good for either group. Might be time that RYR fades into the background that the Wood Brothers is pretty much in and some of the new Toyota teams take their place.

[hangoverbuffet]

I don't know Yates might have a card or two up his sleeve... i would not count them out... not yet anyhow. I just think that he got behind when everyone else was doing experimental work, they were doing the same ole thing and doing a great job at it. But it has caught up to them.

Mayfield is the most overrated driver in the garage area today well him and Brian Vickers and Casey Mears. Atleast mayfield has won a few races.

[Sutsu]

I don't think Mears is as overrated as Vickers. He's got talent, I just don't think that Ganassi ever really had a good NASCAR program. IRL, sure, good stuff. But not NASCAR.
Vickers, the real test I think will be when he's more the headliner with the Toyota team he'll be with (Red Bull was it?) I mean, he's the small guy in the Hendrick organization, and even when Labonte left they replaced him with Shrub who, while he's an ass, he is a decent driver from a big name of drivers in today's sport, so he's always been the little tagalong guy. Maybe when he breaks out he'll do better... but I'm not going to hold my breath for him.

[Beeman99]

I see Yates as the RCR from 2002-2005. RCR went through a number of mediocre years and they have it turned around now. Yates will do the same, especially with Robert turning more of the "boss" duties over to his son so he can be more involved with the engines and chassis. Yates will be back, it'll just take a while, same as RCR.

[Ballbuster1]

They all seem to go thru cycles of being hot & cold. Yates had 2 good
drivers and still wasn't getting the results. Maybe it's best that Dale
and Elliot move on and he has to shake things up and restart.
Give them a couple of years to reorganize and they'll be more
competitive again, I'm sure.

[Calbucfan1]

I don't see Yates being down for that long a couple of years they will be back in the running every week. As for Mayfield being overrated I totally agree with that after last year at Michigan when he won and his own crew chief said they had a 19th place car and it was all luck.

[Ballbuster1]

So who's dumber this week? Smoke for getting pissed and trying to
wreck Clint Bowyer and taking out Edwards too or Carl for slamming
into Stewart on pit road? Edwards is just throwing his chances to make
the chase down the tubes by stooping to Stewart's level.
Bad call by Carl and Tony needs to go back to anger management class.

[Ballbuster1]

DENNY DOES IT AGAIN!
Hamlin goes from pole to checkers again at Pocono Raceway.
The kid just has the track figured out. God bless video games.
Kurt Busch takes 2nd followed by Gordon, Vickers and Harvick.
Another bad outting by JR drops him out of the top 10.
This win now puts Denny into the chase so far.

[TDRacing13]

Im gonna have to say Smoke, did you hear his fuckin speech after the race about how these young drivers need to know what to do when someones faster than them. Yea thats how you tell Clint Bowyer what he did wrong, by wrecking Edwards, that hand gesture would have been enough although Bowyer did nothing wrong to begin with. Oh yea and Edwards is a dummy for dumping him on pit road.

[hangoverbuffet]

ah let the smoke bashing begin.... i tell ya that crash was his fault he did wrong but i can't blame him for doing it. The pressure of the chase is hard and its ever harder for a defending champion not to make the race so when some rookie (who i like very much ) does not give him enough room that earily in the race i can see where he would snap.... and I never liked Carl Edwards... hes too humble if that is possible, and he did not handle him self that well either

[Ballbuster1]

I like Stewart, don't get me wrong. But that shot at Clint was unnecessary.
He was squeezed but it didn't really hurt him. The Smoke of last season
would have let it go. He needs to get back into that mind set.
Edwards did himself no favors dumping Tony on pit road.
They all need to calm down a bit.

[TDRacing13]

Like I have said before, I usually like how Smoke races but for some reason since day one this year he has had no problem roughing people up but if you so much as rub doors with him he loses his mind

[hangoverbuffet]

They need to hold their rage until martinsville oct 22 so i can see the best fucking race of the chase ha ha

[TDRacing13]

now i think thats something we can agree on, i wish they would get rid of some of the cookie cutter ovals and add some more short tracks

I have watched him for a while and something that just bugs the shit out of me. Why does he squint so much when he is talking. ANd he is a big baby, everytime he crashes he throws a tantrum like his father used to do. Only worse.

He's a little too uptight like his dad was/is, but I think he's going to have a future at the cup level. You think his squinting is bad, watch Burton when they interview him, he squints/frowns at least once a minute, it drives me nuts.

House cleaing at Yates.

Seems Yates fired both of his crew chiefs so that puts the searching up to

2 drivers

2 crew chiefs

1 sponsor

lots of talent

maybe if he got rid of those damned fords and get a toyota or dodge he might be able to do something

the Germans and Japs are coming zig high

Maybe since he owns Bill Elliots 00 he'll just change the paint scheme and number and run that. He wouldn't have to pay for that either. Pretty decent 26th place starting spot for that car as well.

[Calbucfan1]

I was reading at Yahoo Sports that Mark Martin is intrested in buying Robert Yates Racing.

[Beeman99]

Possible, but he did tell TNT that he will not buy his way in this time. I know the 00 is his car, but I can't see him telling Elliott that he won't run sunday.

[Beeman99]

I was reading at Yahoo Sports that Mark Martin is intrested in buying Robert Yates Racing.

I saw that as well, but I don't think he'd buy RYR. I could see him partnering up iwith Yates and making it Martin-Yates or some shit, but I really don't think Martin would just step in and buy the whole team. That's a ton of capital to come up with and with his close ties to Roush, a partnership seems more realistic.

[Ballbuster1]

Among the drivers who didn't make the field was two-time Daytona 500 winner Michael Waltrip, who also failed to qualifying for the Coca-Cola 600 in May at Charlotte. Waltrip bought a ride in that race from Derrike Cope, who had qualified for the field.
This time, Waltrip most likely will spend his Sunday afternoon in the TV booth, working as part of TNT's announcing team.

That's from CNN/SI.com. I haven't heard of any changes being
made so I guess it's probably the best bet.

[Sutsu]

Even if Waltrip ran the 00 car, he's got his obligations to Burger King to run their paint scheme for this race. Sucks for him, this has just been one loooooong year. Him in the TV booth might be interesting, might actually make it watchable.

Mmm.... now I'm hungry damnit.

[hangoverbuffet]

nah hes not driving, he said it on tnt today. He will be in the booth, like he said he can't get any owners points and now his chance for the top 35 is shot so he could careless. He knows with his current equipment he can't win a race if he was the only car in it. But next year with Toyota i think he will do much better and might win one or two. maybe non restricted.

Bill will drive the burger king car because he needs someone other than himself to shake down the car and the team and tell him what he needs. he knows what he needs but if someone who is a former champ and a damn good driver himself can throw in something michael might have missed it wil lbe better.

2007 Year of waltrip

[Sutsu]

2007 Year of waltrip

I certainly hope so. If not him, then MWR.

[hangoverbuffet]

finally someone who don't hate waltrip..... i like the guy, and i think with him being the boss and running the top of the heep equipment he might win a race or two. I think DJ could be a darkhorse to make the chase

[Bud8Weiser]

Having Mikey in the booth tomorrow should definately make it better to watch. I love listening to him. I'm a big Mikey fan. Started in his DEI days and I still like him. I really hope next year he and his team get things turned around and get back to running up front.

[Sutsu]

I started liking Waltrip a few years back when, in a postrace interview after he and Jimmie Johnson got tangled up, he said "I'll still shop a Lowe's for quality home improvement goods if you still come to NAPA for quality auto parts."

I immediately did my best impression of Opie screaming "YOU WHORE!"

[hangoverbuffet]

if he had condoms and dildos as a sponsor, that fucker would say after a race

"go get ya some with trojan man and if your alone ladies use billy bobs dildos."

I love him ha ha (no homo)
car crash*
I got his autograph twice

I have liked him since he drove the damn Country Time lemonade pontiac grand prix and thats old school

[Sutsu]

I'm going to the Dover Chase race later this year, and I have a pit pass so I definately want to get a few goodies autographed by him. If I can see him, Mark Martin, Jr, Smoke and tell Gordon or either of the Busches to piss off (from a distance), I'll be a happy redneck.

Well, I've watched half the race so far and holy shit did Jr have a shitty ass car in traffic. I was happy to see Gordon have a shitty day, but it really sucks that JJ won, I really see him taking it all this year. The shittiest part about that is I've finally got my tickets ordered for the all 3 races at Homestead, and the last thing I want to watch is JJ hoist the trophy. The only thing that pisses me off about Homestead tickets is I can't find any pit passes for it, there are some for sale on Front Row tickets, but I think they may be pre race passes, but I want passes for the practice and qualifying sessions.

[hangoverbuffet]

I don't know if they have ever sold practice pit passes, but ive never heard about it or thought much about it for that much. Yeah it would suck but atleast hopefully you will see harvick lift the busch cup.

Jr got on to the team again about the shit car. This weekend we will find out if he has what it takes to make it or will he fall out again

Thats a good point. I just don't think he's been around long enough just yet to be running his mouth to a two time champ. BTW. I love the Harvick userbar. Mind telling me where you got it. :icon_mrgr

[hangoverbuffet]

I am one of the few who hates carol edwards, I think he is overly humble.... a fake humble if you will. I do hope he ends up like gordon or the buschs.

Someone might get suspended and points will be lost but Pride is forever and the fans never forget an asswhipping. I see one coming at Bristol or Richmond, or martinsville( i hope its martinsville oh please be martinsville) But Carl will go after tony and try to knock him out of the chase and if he does. the shit will hit the fan.

Cases in point. The 1979 Daytona 500 the first race ever to be broadcast live, who won? no one remembers that Richard Petty won, But we all remember the fight at the end between the Donnie and Bobby Allison and Cale Yarborough.

There was a fine of like 1,000 each but it was out of their system and they went on to next weeks race at Richmond.

NASCAR will not do that now sadly, They will be pussies and probably suspsend and fine people for fighting on television, something that made the sport what it is today will be shunned.

But i do hope tony kicks his ass... to teach that rookie a lesson

[Sutsu]

Word on NASCAR.com is that Mayfield will be replaced by Bill Elliot (http://www.nascar.com/2006/news/headlines/cup/08/08/jmayfield_belliott/index.html) this weekend for the Watkins Glen race. Given that Mayfield's fallen out o fthe top 35 in owner points, and not guaranteed a spot if I'm not mistaken, this is a good move by Evernham to keep that team in the races but definately shows that Mayfield is on the outs and could be out sooner than later.

Personally, I never saw that much talent to Mayfield. He's been lucky the last two seasons sneaking into the chase, but his luck ran out this year.

[Ballbuster1]

Ray's gotta do his best to try and get his team back up into the
top 35. I can't blame him for doing what he has to. It's very
obvious to everyone that Mayfield is gone very soon. I doubt that
they will stay together thru the end of the season.

[hangoverbuffet]

what is really funny about that Mayfield deal is that Bill Elliott should have gotten a Champions Provisional but since they got their entry blank in late. Ole Awesome Bill won't get one.

I bet Mayfield is laughing his ass off

Maybe they'll let Martin run it the rest of the year or him and Junior will share time in the car. Any time I get to watch either of them race more I"m a happy camper.

I'd be happy with that, as long as Bud will let Junior run more than one race evey two months in the Busch Series.

[Sutsu]

I'd be happy with that, as long as Bud will let Junior run more than one race evey two months in the Busch Series.

Highly doubtful. After what happened to him in that road race practise two years ago, Bud has probably no intentions of letting their golden boy do anything more than he absolutely has to outside of a Nextel cup race.

Bill may not have gotten his Champ's provisional, but I doubt that he'll have too much trouble getting into the show. The
