Come on! If JR had won you guys would all be running around cheering like you had just chugged 2 AMP Energy drinks! That would be the talk all week.
P.S. Don’t forget Rowdy was the first person to win in the C.O.T.

Come on, take your loss like a man. Don't you worry, Rowdy's got lots more like that in him and will be around at the end. Just watch next week at Bristol for some real excitement.How do you like him now HMS?

Where is everybody? Sal, Sally, son of racefan, jacko?? Congrats, racefan, on Rowdy's win.

Son of Racefan is probably busy packing for Bristol.

When was the last time Jimmie Johnson made a move that made you saw “Wow, now he can drive a car?” How about Jeff Gordon, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Matt Kenseth? The list goes on and on. “Drivers wanted” isn’t just a Volkswagen ad campaign, it’s the sign that’s up outside the Joe Gibbs Racing Shop. Gibbs wants wheel men, not guys who consider being behind the wheel like a day at the office. Wheel men come with warts, they come with tempers. Think A.J. Foyt. Guys like Johnson and Kenseth aren’t wheel men, they’re extensions of good crew chiefs and good teams, interchangeable part in the machine. Give me a “driver” any day over a points racer. Rick Hendrick’s decision taking Junior over Kyle Busch wasn’t about putting the best driver behind the wheel of his car, it was about dollar signs and he saw many more of them in the eyes of Earnhardt than he did in Busch. When it comes down to hiring the driver that brings in more money and not the driver who has the chance for more wins then there are issues in racing.

Well said SJH. I totally agree. There is an issue with Na$car.

Kyle reminds me of the old school drivers;Rusty,DW,Dale Sr and others who went out there every week to win not to settle. He's brought back real racing.

Anyone see Rowdy race the truck this week? That was wild.

Texas Motor Speedway will pay a $15,000 bounty for any driver that gets mad enough to throw their helmet before the TMS race.

The money will go to the driver's charity of choice.

Well said SJH, just not well spelled. Please try spelling check.
You had it coming.

Congrats to Kyle. Twenty years from now when fans talk of race car DRIVERS from this era, Kyle's name will come up as often as anyone. That kid was just incredible in all three series this weekend. I said before that that kid makes his own lane on any track, including Oxford. His passes on the apron at Atlanta were awesome.

The race itself was less than stellar though. I hope they get the tire situation fixed.

It will not be a tire issue at Bristol this weekend though. It will be the wife's first time at any track other than Loudon. Look for me. I will be in turn 4 with about 60,000 others.

Wave to us, Son of Racefan. We'll be watching.

Where there's Smoke, there's tire!

And who do you favor for this weekend, MsBoogity?
