The Start Of The NASCAR Season...

[Bob Denman]

:roflblack: C'mon now, Bob. Don't hold back. Tell us how you really feel.

:roflblack: You're right; I could have been kinder to him... :shocked:

Let's just say that his accomplishments on the track pale in comparison to his Dad's... :bowdown::bowdown::bowdown::firstplace:

 

[dannymax]

The only thing she is really good at is wrecking cars.

Looks like spotter error to me....Danica was clearly the faster car.

 

[arntufun]

I disagree! Any racer that's on the track will tell you that it's easier to be in the wrong place at the wrong time than it is to actually win a reace... She's a real good open-wheel racer; She might even turn out to be a pretty decent stock car racer too. Only time will tell...
Kyle Petty... Living proof that winning races skips generations!! :roflblack::roflblack: The King should have killed him and boiled his bones for soup when he was youg... :joke::joke::joke::joke::joke: (For you KP fans!)

She won one race in JAPAN !!!! You can hardly call her a good open wheel racer. She is even worse in Nascar. If she was a guy, she would have been booted from the sport along time ago. nojoke



Kyle Petty is a strong advocate for motorcycles. He also sponsors and attends many motorcycle rides. :doorag:

 

[Bob Denman]

I know that Kyle rides... but that don't make him a racer any more than me ryding a Spyder would make me a good skier...
She's new in NASCAR; give her a chance to see what she can do! Do you remember when Jeff Gordon came into the sport? For the first couple of years he REALLY had trouble staying away from accidents. Four Championships later... :firstplace::bowdown:

 

[arntufun]

If she was any good it would be different, but they give this girl (a 35th place driver at best) way to much air time and I'm sick of hearing more about her than the people that actually up front and winning the races. :barf:


What really bothers me about her is this.............

Well I can certainly agree with you on that point at least... She's had more than enough rabid press coverage...

 

[dannymax]

NASCAR's a show! Yeah, they drive cars around in a circle and it kinda resembles racing but basically it's big time entertainment!

Danica's good for the show, her being there is gonna boost ratings and bring in more legal tender....she's a commodity, we'll be seeing a lot of her.

:agree: Racing turned into show biz back in the Sixties/Seventies. It hasn't been the same, since. The one that always gets me is the well-rehearsed thanks to the long list of sponsors at the race-end interview. I remember when the driver with the greasy face and goggle eyes just smiled and got a kiss from the race queen, as he held up his trophy.

richard petty

remember when we were kids and richard petty used to tear it up on the track, and race cars were real cars. now it's just like every other sport, all about the money. i hate this world sometimes.:banghead:

 

[Trickie Dick]

Poor Danica

Just can't drive. Unless of course it's for the Pole position in the Nationwide race at Daytona:roflblack::roflblack:. I'm sure it's a conspiracy, right Artufun.pps:

 

[dannymax]

Vicious hit with 17 to go

Eerily similar to Danica's crash yesterday but even more dramatic....and walked to the ambulance! That would have been really nasty without the steel and foam energy retention (or whatever the last word in the acronym is) wall!

The pole you say...............hyea:................opcorn:

 

[Bob Denman]

While ANY pole is noteworthy :thumbup:; it's probably easier to mash the loud pedal when you're out there all alone and not in a pack in of :cus: who act like they're all trying to kill you!

 

[NancysToy]

Rubbin' is Racin'!

 

[dannymax]

Rubbin' is Racin'!

......Harry!...."Rubbin's Racin' Harry"!! :roflblack:

 

[arntufun]

I told you she can't drive !!! She single car wrecked on lap 49 !!!! :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack::roflblack: She is already saying it wasn't her fault, like always.


What lap will she wreck tomorrow ???:roflblack:

 

[ARtraveler]

My vibes say she will wreck on lap 53--now that she has made it all the way up to 49. :roflblack:

 

[Sarge707]

Only reason I will watch part of it Sunday is to see Danica, You Go Girl!! Kick some Butt?:clap:

 

[arntufun]

150 duels 2-23-12 ------------ wrecked
Nationwide Race 2-25-12------ wrecked
Sprint Race 2-26-12 ----------- she will wreck on lap ??? :roflblack:

I hate to say I told ya so.............. but I told ya so !!!! :yes::yes::yes:

 

[dannymax]

All the really good ones tear up a bunch of cars early in their careers....they're pushing the limits, seeing what they can & can't do, displaying fearless, agressive qualities.......essential in a winner!

All the greats did the same thing! Any ol' mediocre driver can pussyfoot around at the back of the pack....ya gotta take chances to win. :lecturef_smilie:
