NECKCAR on TV, I can take it or leave it, but it would be cool to see a race live at Bristol.

2 or 3 years I caught some of the Evening Bristol race on FX. Was fuggin hilarious, Rusty Wallace was whining because Jeff Gordon bumped him to win. I cannot remember if it came to blows in the garage, but it was funny.

ok, fine, I guess we'll call the NASCAR drivers athletes too. They do it for people who play video games for a living, calling them "cyberathletes"...might as well be calling them race car drivers Nasthletes.

OK, we can just classify you as a tardpostalete then. A very poor one, so how bout rookietardpostalete?

Gordon is whinning again because Stewart did it to him yesterday at Dover. Someone should give him a hauler of crying towels. Only difference was Tony's little tap did not look intentional.

Now I am definitely not any kind of Jeff Gordon fan....in fact any day he gets a DNF is like a holiday for me. But to say that what Stewart did wasn't intentional is bull****. Tony knew exactly what he was doing when he ran the right front of his car up under Jeff's left rear.

Aww c'mon. Smoke barely, I mean BARELY tagged him. It was more of an aero thing than a contact thing. What Brian Vickers did in Charlotte was a bump and run. I didn't hear Gordon chastizing him over it, but then he's a Hendrick driver so it's fine and dandy. Gordon's a puss.

Anyone able to recommend a good driver autobiography or history of NASCAR book.

Last American Hero by Tom Wolfe is a pretty good biography of Junior Johnson. Old school NASCAR.

"rubbin'" is racin'.....Everytime Jeff Gordon has a bad day it's everbody's fault but his own, and he's always runnin' dryin' to the NASCAR officials about it. He should stop being such a ***** and take his lumps like a man. He already has a huge advantage being part of one of the richest/best car building teams out there(not that I can stand any of the Hendricks Dirvers but they do build awesome cars)

When you are slower than another car, you can only hold him up so much before the faster car is going to punt you. That is what happened to Gordon, and even he admitted it.

Like I said before....anytime #24 fails to finish is fine with me. Personally I wouldnt mind if he never finished another race in his entire life. But saying that what Stewart did was accidental is just ludicrous. He knew exactly what he was doing......its not like #24 hasnt done the same thing to others in the past.
