The statement's only stupid if one is stupid enough to think it's stupid. |

I'd like them to start using a dash display of lights that coincide with the flags so that all drivers get the flag signals at the same time. Yo... that'd be great for the "passing flag", wouldn't it? The little blue and yellow lights would come on and suddenly 43 cars all move to the outside and slow down to let... who(?) go by? Again, with spotters, radios, etc. the courtesy flag is entirely unnecessary. But each car does have its own transponder and could have its own courtesty light if Nascar felt it was necessary. |
library on how to be funny on usenet...

If "the leaders" aren't good enough to pass a car two laps down, they don't deserve to be leading. |

I was trying to be funny. I gotta go get that book back out of the library on how to be funny on usenet... |
here lately, I wasn't even thinking toungue-in cheek.
But to be fair, it wasn't all that funny. I'd go ahead and check out that
book if I were you.
;^)

Being two laps down, and no where in the running for the win when there are less than 20 laps to go does not give him the right to race the leaders and cause problems for drivers to win. Next time he does that, NASCAR should park his ass for the rest of the race. David |

That is a totally stupid statement. Anyone who knows anything about racing understands that if you are two laps down you *have* to get out of the way, unless your name is Earnhardt or Schumaker. |

I was trying to be funny. I gotta go get that book back out of the library on how to be funny on usenet... Sorry Mike. I missed it completely. After some of the exchanges I've had in here lately, I wasn't even thinking toungue-in cheek. But to be fair, it wasn't all that funny. I'd go ahead and check out that book if I were you. ;^) And here i was about to award Mr.Marlow the 'Funniest Post of the Week'! |
armpit--that was a good last sentence, however i feel for u & some of
yore recent exchanges, especially with trying to deal with a
pretty good tongue in cheek female known as Julia ;-p
CRU-gotta remember to renew my library card one o these days.

Have you ever heard of the term for being a gentlemanlly driver? Dale JR is no gentleman to do what was right by letting the lead lap cars go. David "Mr. Walt" <taking-it-ezee (AT) webtv (DOT) net> wrote in message news:6145-42E658C3-1193 (AT) storefull-3135 (DOT) bay.webtv.net... If "the leaders" aren't good enough to pass a car two laps down, they don't deserve to be leading. I must have watched a different race. I didn't see Jr. holding anyone up. |
Rusty (in 2nd at the time). If Kurt cut a tire (etc.) Jr. would have a lap
back. With a fast car and a number of cars also a lap down he could have
gain many positions in just a few laps. I am not a big Jr. fan (go 12) but I
do admire the never say die attitude.
