I like Harvick, Stewart, Waltrip, McMurray and both Buschs. I don't like
Edwards because he is just as vanilla as Gordon is.

Edwards has that back-flip thing plus a smoke'n-hot mom
which I thought would remove him from the "vaniila" group.

It can be argued that the JGR and RCR teams have equipment
every bit as good as HMS. the JGR COT's have lead more laps
than the HMS COTs, they just haven't won (for various reasons).
Harvick had a fast car at Daytona and Burton is up there every
week.

I'll admit that JJ and JG are very homogenized but that's what
sponsors are looking for. Guys that can drive and keep their
noses clean. However, I don't think you're being completely
honest with us.
"Us"?

There is nothing more pathetic than someone who is arrogant enough to
assert that they speak for an entire group of people.

There are plenty of boring drivers that you
"can stand". How about Terry and Bobby Labonte,
Don't like either of them.

Denny Hamlin,
Whines after every race because he's not winning. Love him.

Casey Kahne,
Made all sorts of remarks about Stremme being "fat," then when given a
chance to backpedal on NASCARNow, he kicked Stremme a few more times.
I am not to where I like him yet, but he gained a lot of points in my
eyes.

and Matt Kenseth just to get started.
Can't stand him.

I would say that the less robotic drivers are Harvick, Stewart,
Waltrip, Edwards, McMurry, Sadler, and Kyle Busch to name
a few.
I like Harvick, Stewart, Waltrip, McMurray and both Buschs. I don't
like Edwards because he is just as vanilla as Gordon is. Sadler is
just a piker. I don't have opinions of career Busch guys, and Sadler
is no better than they are.

You hate JJ and JG if:
1. You hate Hendrick
2. You hate California
3. Their voices are too high
4. All of the above plus they win too much
5. You don't like boring, vanilla douchebags.

Given decent equipment, those two can drive.
You have to admit that!
They have good cars, I will give them that. Give everyone equal cars
and they don't win a race this year. Give everyone equal cars, and
Stewart, Harvick and Hamlin finish 1-2-3 in every race this year.

Thomas, you are out of your little mind if you think that Jeff Gordon
won 78 races and four Championships just by the luck of the draw.
I didn't say anything about luck, bud.

He won everything that there is out there to be won because he is the
best driver of his time.
He's the winningest driver of his time.

Way better than Dale Earnhardt.
Enh. I know you're trolling for a response, but I never really cared for
Earnhardt. Both of them are intensely overrated.

Way better than Tony Stewart.
Not even close. Tony Stewart is the best driver in the modern era of
motorsports. Schumaker is a moderately close 2nd. You might be able to
make a case for Gordon at #3, but it would be spotty at best.

Way better than everyone. Jeff Gordon is the best there ever was and
the best there ever will be.
Heh. Whatever you say, kiddo.



I do not care about Formula One driving. F1 is all electronics and
politics and the cars never pass each other after the first two laps.

Tony Stewart seems to be winless so far just as the recent hot shoes Ryan
Newman and Dale Earnhardt,Jr.

In the stick and ball leagues they have about thirty teams and only one
of them wins. At the glorious Indianapolis 500 they have 33 entrants and
only one of them wins. But in NASCAR they have 43 entrants which makes
it the hardest major sport in which to win. And Jeff Gordon has won more
often and quicker than anyone who ever was or every will be. Facts is
facts.

That doesn't make him the best driver. That makes him the driver in the
best situation.

-Thomas
It doesn't even mean that. It means the #24 team has been the best team.

Harvick? um, yeah. He's good, but top 3? I don't think so.

IMO, given equal equipment, either Stewart or Kenseth would win every week.
Kenseth would win when Stewart has his head up his ass. Otherwise, he
finishes second to Tony.

Jeff Gordon used to have a rockin 'stache. He was and still is a
complete douche.

I don't find his mom attractive, and having an attractive mother doesn't
make you any less of a stain.

Gordon is a douche. When he missed the Chase in '05, he blamed his team.
Usually, I like people who don't just say what works best politically,
but in his case, he just sounded like an arrogant prick. In every
interview I have seen, he comes across as an arrogant, boring little shit.

The only time I have ever seen him do something that wasn't boring was
when he ran at Kenseth and shoved him. But the gutless little shitbag
didn't even take off his helmet first. He's lucky he didn't get
absolutely fucking pounded, as while Kenseth is a douche himself, he has
lumps in his morning turd that are bigger than Gordon.

Their cars aren't as good. In Hamlin's case, his pit crew screwed him a
couple times. In Tony's case, he got wrecked by Johnny Hill and Dipshit
Gilliland. But if they had Hendrick-quality cars, that wouldn't have
happened. Gilliland wouldn't have been able to wreck Tony, because he
wouldn't have been able to get around Hamlin and Harvick at the #2 and
#3 spots, much less get close enough to Tony to wreck him.

Quote:

Yep, sometimes the Hendrick team doesn't get their cars set up quite as
well as at other times. Doesn't change the fact that the car is the
reason why Gordon and Johnson win.

No. I like Denny and he will win a lot of races in his career, and quite
possibly a couple titles, but at this point he isn't yet a top contender at
every track.

You say there car aren't as good then you give all these non-car-
related
reason why they haven't won. What are you smoking?

So, why hasn't Casey Mears won yet. Or Brian Vicker last year.
