I have a couple ideas as to why Mark Martin has never won a championship.
He
will go down as the best driver in Nascar history never to have won a
championship, IMHO. But there are a few reasons why that may be true.
Firstly, the guy is just not an aggressive driver. How many times can you
remember where he bumped someone for a win? Or got into any scrapes for
aggressive driving? Guys like Tony Stewart, Jeff Gordon and Dale Sr. won
championships because they were willing to take some risks if need be.
They
weren't afraid to use the bumper if the need arose. So in that respect
Mark
is just not aggressive enough. Also, Mark has never been a dominant driver
at restrictor plate tracks, which are four races each year. He constantly
complains about them and never has done very well, unlike Gordon and
Earnhardt. I would love to know his average finish at Daytona and
Talledega
compared to other past champions. Basically, he throws away four races
every
year. Roush has never been known for its restrictor plate program, which
has
hurt Mark over the years. I just don't think you can win a championship by
tossing 4 races out the window. Mark has always done well at intermediate
tracks and road races, but when it comes to restrictor plates he just
isn't
guaranteed there.

Mark doesn't have enough 'killer' instinct...

to add my 2 cents worth the penalty in question was like the 2nd or 3rd race
of the season....so it wasnt like a last few races of the year to screw him
out of the championship. 1990? spring rockingham?

No penalties on each. As for the points penalty on Mark, that was the year
he was neck and neck with Dale. And many people point to that penalty as
what did him in.

I have an idea too. I think he has never won because he ended up with less
points than at least one of the other drivers every year. Call it a
hunch......

Oh, and he cheats in ways that get him caught. Well, and sucks. :-)

Congrats on being a fan for at least 5 years. But that's not what I
said, or
meant. Please do try to keep up.



I've been a fan for 25 years, shithead. But if you want to look at
recent history, then two Fords have won recently. Fact. And frankly,
it has nothing to do with the allegation that NASCAR hates Roush,
since two Roush cars have won recently. And secondly, it has nothing
to do with my original post about MM. Pay attention, numby.
WTF is a numby? God, I miss the days of CFS. He said funny shit like
"yore ass sucks buttermilk". You guys never say anything funny.

God only issues "killer instinct" to people over 5 feet tall. Mark got the
"I am food" instinct instead.

Well, Kenseth and Busch won titles recently, both in Fords.

RR had threatened legal action unless he got his turn to win so the deal
was either Matt "Who?" Kenseth or no one, so Jack took the deal. nascar
had so much fun with that they gave KuB the title, knowing no one really
liked him and it would really torque Jack to have to be buddy-buddy with
ol' big ears. When KuB left RR ... well that was icing on nascar's cake.

Sounds like the grassy knoll theory...

nascar doesn't like Jack Roush.



Or Ford. Chevy is their pet, and always has been. I mean, you don't
see
Ford
advertising how many titles they've won out of so many years during
the
Daytona 500 broadcast, do ya? ;-)

LOL! You are an idiot, and one that is likely less than 25 years old, but
since you're that dense, I will spell it out for you. During the Daytona 500
this past Sunday, Chevy ran ads about winning like 38 of 48 (or some similar
ratio) of the TOTAL NASCAR Cup titles.

Now, WTF does that have to do with Kenseth and Numbnuts Busch? Fucktard.

Yeah, the loser posting to hear himself thinks I said Ford had won no
titles, which isn't even on the same page as what I was talking about, which
was the total number of Chevy titles versus any other make over the course
of NASCAR's history.
