Another solid top 5 finish for Jr. and how about that Kyle Busch!? I thought it was kind of funny how he and his mom were booed during driver intro's.

U.M.

 

[Kraw]

just goes to show the lack of class some fans have

but really, they weren't booing his mom


I read a quote somewhere by KyBu that said something like "some fan threw a beer at me, just remember next time to throw a full, cold one for me to drink"

It's hard to say if HMS got the bad deal here. The season still has a long way to go. I'm sure they are making a ****load of money of the Jr Nation merchandising, but it's almost a given that KyBu will win the chase this year.

But again, Dale has been super consistent, and that's what it takes to win a championship. Well, guess that was sort of disproven last year. He could go on a tear this summer and win a bunch of races.

KyBu could get even more bold and wreckless later on in the season and start DNF'ing. He's awesome when he doesn't wreck, but how many times did he take himself out of contention last year?


What about Dale and his engine problems? Seems like the HMS power is holding up for him. But, how many DEI cars have had failures this year? Maybe Teresa was sabotaging him

Here's where that magic happened

Say what? How the heck can you make that assumption at this point in the season?

Scary thought huh? I'm betting there were some serious changes made between last season and this season as far as the DEI engine program is concerned...

just assuming



I hope I'm wrong. I think the 48 will come alive during the chase and defend his title

 

[foghorn67]

Kyle Bush is an ass.


That's all.

 

[Kraw]

how so?

If I was him, I would be flipping off the crowd instead of bowing to them

 

[Uncle Meat]

Again Little "E" shows he has the talent to run up front, but the racing gremlins keep him away from that illusive first win with HMS. Even with a cut tire and some intimate contact with the wall he was able to salvage a 5th place and maintain his #3 position in the points. Maybe Jr. will go all year without ever winning a race, yet get handed the overall championship!

U.M.

 

[Kraw]

he's been very consistent... something he hasn't been in the last 2 or 3 years. If he could stay out of trouble, he'll be fine.

There's the door over there pal, don't let it hit you on the way out, but please do feel free to participate in the any of the numerous open wheel threads already active within the Sports Bar.

[Kraw]

what is this IRL you speak of?

do you mean URL?

this is a NASCAR thread... Sprint Cup that is. No women allowed

 

[Kraw]

so, how many cars were on the lead lap in the end? When Jimmie was 7th and went a lap down with 23 to go, I quit watching

 

[COramprat]

I hate Toyota.

 

[Kraw]

did you notice the stands? They were pretty empty

I tell you what, if Jr and Gordon don't start winning, and if Yota's keep winning, you can mark this season as the downfall of NASCAR. People will lose interest and stop watching if a "young punk in a foreign car" keeps winning

too bad people can't see his wins for what they are.... dominance. A true race fan would appreciate what's going on

 

[Kraw]

well, you KyBu haters can let out a sigh of relief. He just tried to squeeze in a hole he wasn't destined to, hit the 26, then the wall he was talking trash to his spotter but still KyBu shouldn't be such a dick

 

[Uncle Meat]

Love it! heh.. heh.. heh..

U.M.

 

[Uncle Meat]

'Nother top 5 finish for little "E". I think he's saving all his winning for the last 10 races when the chase starts.

U.M.

I was reading some of the comments on that site, this one is great (if you can understand it)

Kyle Bush doen not impersonate Sr. He is out there to win and race, the other guyes are there to make pts like your JR. JEFFY GORDON and who ever else. Nu 18 Kyle Bush can't help it if he is out there to race and win when everyone else is there to make POINTS!!!!!! JR is good but all of you got to know one thing he WILL NOT BE LIKE SR WAS his (DADDY) get off the Bag Wagon
Ive always liked Kyle Bush even though he was a teamate to Jeff Gordon Jimmie is alright. Can't hate the GAME (HATE THE PLAYER) Hendrick for leting Kyle go and the REAL TEAM (JOE GIBBS RACING) to pick up the NEW BAD BOY OF NASCAR to his unqiue team of members.
