Auto Racing - August 2007

I am trying to understand why Robby Gordon was benched in his NEXTEL Cup race for something he did in a Busch race?
That just doesn't make any sense to me? How do the rest of you feel? Someone please explain.

I'm sorry, but Robby Gordon was robbed this past weekend in Montreal.. I was not particularly supportive of his agressive behavior after the yellow, but NASCAR flat missed the right call. Robby should have been aligned in second place for the restart. What a shame NASCAR cannot admit they missed the call. They have every right to penalize Robby based on his behavior as they have done, but they still should own up to making the WRONG call against him after the caution. Just admit it... It's OK... You're allowed to make mistakes. Everybody does.......!

I do not usually brag, yet I have to this time. Because I am a Gibbs fan. I told everyone on here that Kyle would be going to Gibbs. I said this starting a day or two after he was announced to leave. If you do not believe it, just look back at my past answers. Everyone (almost) said DEI. Why would he go there? O.K. Here is my question. Do you think that starting next season, Joe Gibbs Racing will be the new number one team in NASCAR? I know Hendrick is currently the number one team, yet is this the start of Gibbs domination?

Article on yahoo said nascar brought the best and worst to Canada. I think the worst was the best. After that race I bet next year the crowds will be even bigger. I think Nascar owes Robby a little thanks.

I have several NASCAR Action cars and I have no idea what size they are... I just buy them when I find them and I can recognize if they are the same size as the ones I already own. How do I know what size? The length and width is 11 x 4 inches. I would like to know since I want to start buying online and want the same size.

Should Marco Andretti be headed to a Formula 1 team as test driver for a year or so with the idea of jumping into a full-time drive?

He did well in his Honda testing and he certainly can drive a road course. Perhaps he can do one more year of IRL while also testing in Europe for a team willing to take a chance. I would rather not see him go to Honda, although that seems to be the best bet right now. Maybe with Gil gone he can move on to a better second tier team. Williams or Red Bull? Can we see the Andretti name back at Ferrari? I doubt Mike would let him anywhere near Ron Dennis!

There is no doubt that McLaren is the best team for now.But Ferrari it's really close now. They improved very much since Indiannapolis.And at least in the next 3 races they seam to have the best chances of winning.

In my part of the world, they do not show nascar races anymore so i havent really watched a full race since 1998. I watch a few clips on youtube recently, and i noticed that nascar commentators are boring as hell. In the race in canada, all hell was breaking loose, there were cars spinning and overtaking during the yellow flag. The commentators, if anything, talked even slower.

Someone said that it was espn's nascar coverage crew that were boring but all the races commentary are all the same, it all sounds like some announcement on c-span or something..

what do you think?

There's a reason why he has to run an unsponsored car from time to time.

You couldn't ask for worse advertising.

As a big Kyle Petty fan, I am afraid with his TNT Broadcasting that he may be trying to end his career. could he win just one more? if he could, what track does he have the best chance?

I know they have those gas masks, but wouldn't the explosion/fire use up all the O2? Do they hold their breath when they jump out of the middle of an inferno?

In your opinion, who is the best Funny Car racer in the NHRA today?

For most people, this question is really up for debate, but for others, most of which are true die-hard fans, there is only one real answer.

John Force . . . 14 time Powerade Points Champion, no one has ever been able to duplicate it, nor is anyone able to duplicate the success he has had on the track in his 30 plus years of racing, the national elapsed time record (4.665 seconds), and the national speed record (333.66 mph), as well as being the only person in the NHRA, past, or present, that has at least one win on every track that the NHRA races on.

I recently bought a pack of cards, something I never do, and I found a Tony Stewart autograph (Press Pass Stealth 07 Maximum Access 25/27.) Any idea where I can find how much this is worth? I look on Beckett.com and didn’t find anything there.

Thanks.

Dont get me wrong that was a ridiculous crash and he is lucky to walk away like that. But its so exaggerated. Everyone who is talking about it is saying that he went 30 feet in the air. One story even said 35 feet in the air, and he even said it himself. Unless i am only seeing bad camera angles it doesnt look like he is anywhere near 35 feet up in the air. That is 3 and half stories up. That is crazy he didnt go that high. So what does everyone think. Did he go that high. If not why is everyone acting like he did.
