Auto Racing - November 2007

Is the stampede from F1 to NASCAR going to destroy this sport? Spend years following and watching the Busch drivers develop their talent for stint in the Big League...then their time is spent waiting again for the big break...F1 drivers remind me of illegal aliens trying to jump in front of the people trying to go through the correct process...money prevails...I am sure losing interest in NASCAR...a fan for 32 yrs...

The expression "Cookie Cutter Track" as much as me? It may be an fairly appropriate description but dayum!!!!

Melbourne has a contract to host the GP until 2010, but due to increasing costs (and losses), the Victorian Government (who pays the bills) has come under intense pressure to ditch the event. Bernie wants Melbourne to do night races but Melbourne said no. I hope we won't lose the GP! It's too far and too expensive for me to travel to overseas races.
Oh well, I'm going to enjoy it while I can. I have my tickets secured, my seat is on the grand stand metres away from the start finish line!

I am just trying to see how recently a champion who didnt make the race finished in the top ten at a race. I would be will ing to bet it was Earnhardt or Elliot.

2 more races & the post-season banquet remain before DE Jr. joins Hendrick Motorsports and becomes Jeff Gordon's wingman. How are Earnhardt fans coping with this impending doom, LOL?

I know that Jr. is voted the most popular, but could it be that because of his father that he is the name that most non-nascar fans remember. Ask a non-fan to name a driver...chances are they wont be able to name five and in that group of five, they will say Jr., even though they know nothing about him.
another question, How popular would Jr. be if his last name were Smith or anything other than Earnhart?

Which track would it be???
Watkins Glen or Sonoma???

I would pick Watkins Glen only because I live about 30 minutes from the track.

Then HMS will be 1,2,3 in the chase. Interesting article:

What do you think of that? I don't think it will happen, at least I hope not. What a season for HMS if he does.

Go Jr.>>>>x

Since Kyle is running CTS, Busch and Cup this weekend, what are his chances of winning all 3? I say he'll do best in the CTS. What do you think?

Go Jr.>>>>x

I know Gordon and Johnson have the best numbers over the past 5 or 6 years, which would mean they are good drivers. Not taking anything away from them. They are also with by far the best organization with unlimited resources. How good do you think they would be if say: They were in a a Petty car, With Roush or Gibbs. Would you say "they are still the greatest"? I'm not bashing anyone, just curious. Was there a little luck involved in getting the rides they got?

I have one start left for both. Do I spend them both this week or one this week and one next? Which one which week, if so?

If so, where can I get some?

NASCAR driver? It's definately Jeff Gordon. Johnson has been doing good this year too. But when you compare Gordon to other Hall of Fame drivers, he's moving up there quick for the time he's been racing. The points system have changed soo much that I think Gordon would have already equaled and maybe even surpassed the 7 Championships of Richard Petty and Dale Earnhart. What do you think?

Just curious about what kind of expenditures are made in the name of IRL Fandom. I ponder my travel, hotel/motel costs, ticket prices and souvenir/memorabilia collecting all winter long, and wonder what others spend.

Flavo is inlove with the guy and it sometimes creepy to hear him talk about him. And why were they always hugging? Hopefully i'll provide a chuckle for someone. What do you guys think?

2007-11-08 04:34:02 · 11 answers · asked by 24fan 4 in Formula One

Last year at this point in the season he was 10th in points, 6 wins, 11 top 5s, 17 top 10s!
This season so far he's 17th in points, 0 wins, 1 top 5, 8 top 10s!
Something really went wrong? I expected him to do at least as well if not better than last year!!
