Auto Racing - June 2007

The Indianapolis 500 used to be THE All-American Race. Now, it's just a bunch of Hondas.

NASCAR is letting in Toyota. Will NASCAR Racing end up being just a bunch of Toyotas? Is this what Americans want to see?

in my eyes a young boy that raced most of his life,had the balls to come to NASCAR with a business card showing he was a driver and wanted to race with the big boys.i believe a owner named jack roush told him to go home and keep trying.now he drives for THE CAT IN THE HAT undoubtly one of the best owners in NASCAR.now he won a race that will benifit a lot of charities.and everyone in the race had one of the best races of all their lives.

I don't care much for the NBA but I'm not knocking their fans.

I've heard a few people, both in this forum and outside of it, claim they feel that Kurt Busch should be completely kicked out of NASCAR for his stunt Monday. While I know we don't know what penalties NASCAR will impose on Busch, what if it were an expulsion from NASCAR entirely? Would there truly be no love lost among NASCAR fans? (except the members of his few and far between fan base). Just curious as to what you on this forum feel your reactions might be if this is in fact the case.

Now to avoid misinterpretation, I'm not saying this will happen, because I don't know what will happen. I just want to know what everyone thinks. I will delay my thoughts until I choose the answer I feel agrees with my view the most.

Just wonderin' what everyones thoughts were on the Old Spice Presents - NEXTEL PRELUDE TO THE DREAM. Haven't heard alot of feedback on it yet like I expected. I thought that it was the BEST SHOW EVER on dirt... and even though I had to pay 25$ for it and watch it @ home...It was INCREDIBLE. I was jumpin', and hollarin' just like I would have if I was there. I grew up @ the dirt tracks watching 360 Winged Sprints, Dirt Mods, and IMCAS but this was ONE AWESOME RACE. For the price though, I think we should get coverage of the $100,000 to win Fri/Sat night DREAM RACE @ Eldora too. For the people that ACTUALLY SAW IT, Was this not the best show on DIRT you've ever seen?

Williams have dominated the motor racing like none other racing company, puny Ferrari are pale with comparison to Williams.

Unbelievable!!!! I ordered the Eldora Prelude to the Dream on PPV and had it set to record on my DVR, after 3 and 1/2 hours of watching the race at the end they stop the PPV and put a little message that if I want to see the ending I need to switch the channel!!! Since it was recording by the time I got to that part it was already over!!So I paid $25 for NOTHING!!!!!!


I am so mad I could spit nails!! I called my sattelite provider and the agent (Who was from another country and sounded like a timed robot) repeats over and over again that they only allotted 3 and 1/2 hours for that PPV.......In essesence bend over and take it!!!!


Did anyone else have this problem and Who won the race?

It's offical! NASCAR told Kurt Busch "Just don't do something like that again." and cut him some slack. There will be NO suspension, NO docking in drivers or owner points, NO fines, NO probation, NO Nothing. He's free to go.

Ok, so there's the deal. I'm so glad NASCAR was willing to give Kurt Busch another chance.

I can't believe nascar don't going to do nothing until Friday about Kurt Busch. Get caught cheatting or a part not approval by Nascar your fined, points taken away,crew chiefs sitting out races. Then some clown who mad almost hit a crew member on pit road and nascar waiting several to do something about it. Come on nascar.

If they don't then NASCAR should never give out another fine for crew cheif violations or anything.Busch should sit at least 1 race.Kevin Harvick was suspended for 1 race a few years ago but he didn't endanger someone's life.

I have noticed that everyone is concerned with Gibbs, Hendrick and Ginn Racing teams. They all say Jr is going with Gibbs...What about RCR, what is Richard Childress saying about all this.

Here's what I think is going to happen:
1- RCR will announce that Dale Jr will be driving a #3 or #8(I think that he will buy the number from Teresa) Black Car
2-RCR will be buying out Budweiser's contact from DEI and announce that it will be Jr's new sponser for the car number that RCR chooses for Jr.
3-All this will be announced at where else but--DAYTONA!!!!
Kelly said she wanted something done by the end of July.
And there you go, thats my opinion on that.

Yes I am a JR Fan and a loyal one at that. Teresa is making a huge mistake in the way that she is taking that whole operation.

The last live airing on free (over-the -air) t.v. happened monday on Fox until september. I feel that nascar is trying to boost ticket sales at the track,at the expense of the armchair fan. In the meantime they are selling us(armchair fans) out for the pay-t.v. revenue. This move,in my mind,dilutes the meaning of the final point chase.It cheap'ns the whole series. Has nascar sold out to the media? Is this the beginning of the end?

To see Ray Evernham get behind the wheel of a race car?
To have Juan Pablo Montoya and Ryan Newman settle their differences - without running for points, in
cars their respective teams don't have to repair?

The Nextel Prelude to the Dream at Eldora Speedway, organized by track owner Tony Stewart, is set to roll tonight with over two dozen famous Nextel Cup stars trying their hands on the tricky dirt oval. Located in tiny Rossburg,
Ohio, about an hour north of Dayton, the half-mile track banked 24 degrees in the turns will play host to 2,300-lb cars running over 800 horsepower. And behind the wheel? Names like Kasey Kahne, Montoya, Gordon, Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, and so much more. The list also includes drag racing
superstars Cruz Pedragon and Ron Capps, trading straight-line racing for turning left as they compete against the NASCAR faithful.

I know NASCAR wants to give cable some of the air time for events but I like Fox broadcasts the best! At least this year the other 1/2 season is only on TNT and not NBC.
