Cut one car from Roush and all others starting 2008.Made some rule changes favoring other makes.Now that Hedricks & chevrolet is donimating and given a new eng.WHERE IS NASCAR?Media Horaying everyone in a big buz.Dont hear any thing from any teams.Conspiracy,manipulating every one
making big money is it one big joke?

Answer 1

I am sorry but there is no conspiracy. Roush even admitted that he just bought a 7 prong shacker; a piece of equipment authorized by NASCAR and used by every single Chevy Team out there.

Yeah, making Roush cut back to four Teams was not right. Yeah, he dominated. It suprises me however that when NASCAR was looking for help from Teams to develop the COT; Roush was absent. When the new shackers came out; Chevy Team bought them and benefited; where was Roush? He just bought one.

The truth is Chevy is throwing alot of weight behind it's Teams. Ford nad Dodge have been cutting back and it is showing big time. Without proper factory support; it's no wonder Chevy is dominating right now. Soon Toyota will be right beside them if Ford and Dodge don't wake up and get with the program.

I don't like Jack Roush; but I am severly disappointed in him and his Team for not stepping it up and putting a truely competitive Team on the track. I have always counted on Roush to be a strong foe for Hendricks, Gibbs, and RCR and aside from Kennseth; Roush has been real sad this season.

Answer 2

Geez, even when a Ford wins you still hear the conspiracy cry. Let's think reasonably please. NASCAR is too large to be manipulated even by the highest of the higher ups. It has too large a fan base and too much of a money flow from the fans to risk favoring or manipulating. Ok, let's say they do manipulate. What if it gets out? The fans find out, NASCAR loses most, if not all of its fan base (because I know I wouldn't stick around), and NASCAR ceases to exist. That's what they want? To die? Seriously though, that's what everybody is saying when they accuse NASCAR of conspiring for a particular team to win.

It is very easy for pride to get in the way of sanity and reason. That is exactly what has happened to all the NASCAR conspiracy theorists. Their pride is hurt because their guy, or brand, isn't winning, so the only solution they can come up with is that NASCAR is cheating. If people would just think reasonably, they would realize what NASCAR would be risking if they were playing favorites. They aren't, so just be patient. No one team will dominate forever. It's already starting to change.

Answer 3

I don't think you know what you are talking about. It was really only one guy dominating for the fords and that was Biffle, not Rousch as a whole. And didn't Newman win about nine races that year in a dodge? Nascar is all about being on a tear. A team will stay on top until another team figures something out and then that team goes to the top. Plus, your arguement doesn't have any good reasons for nascar stepping in. Because a team has good drivers and good equipment nascar should penalize them. Because a team jsut came out with a new engine and that engine is performing well they should be penalized. I hate people like you. They think too much abnout things they have no clue on. You're an idiot. Quit posting on here. And if you do, have actual facts or an arguement.

Answer 4

Truer words have not been spoken.Yes from the Roush dominating lead to improvements with Chevy,Dodge,Chevy,Toyota and Chevy.
My favorite driver(s) drive Chevy's,my favorite team runs Chevy.but a lot of concessions have been given to level the field but the given concessions have developed another adominating team.
Will politics allow concessions to shift powers.Not for the next few years.

Answer 5

No such thing, it's all a joke started by some nut under a rug somewhere in Whoflungdune. If you or anyone else thinks that in this day and age, racing could be fixed, I got 7 million acres for sale on Staten Island that is covered with gold plate.

Answer 6

you have ir right. it is history repeating itself.. the france family is very pro gm and chevy. proof is that they chased the other 2 co.s out in the 1970 rules changes. and it was quiet in the 70's while the Woods bros. went solo and won all the time that David P. drove for them. Then it was Bill Elliott who set track records and nascar tried to penalize the fords, but the CO. said everybody this time, and nascar had to treat everyone the same.. but you have to look at the popularity growth of nascar and the return of dodge, and now toyota. but mark my words , I want to be the first to say it, when the cot comes on line next year, the popularity will wane, and then decline. in 5 years nascar will bring back the bodysyles of the maunufacturers. and why did the cot come pass? they could have changed the bodies of the chevys and fords and dodges, but they had to bail gm out. they did not want to have to spend so much money on their races program, so nascar has delivered them from the burden of body deisgns.

Answer 7

A big soap opera, like the WWE. Above was mentioned about the new Chevy engine. Funny NA$CAR won't let Ford or Dodge have a new engine design. In fact when Dodge came back to NA$CAR a few years ago, NA$CAR told Dodge that they could come back under one condition : NO HEMI. Talk about stacking the deck.

Answer 8

could be why some teams are taking on partners like Roush/Fenway to bring in the bucks needed to compete...My problem was when Roush wanted to bring another engine in and was refused, but hendricks did and they were fine with it,,, favoritism is nascars thing

Answer 9

i might force any between the automobiles from Joe Gibbs Racing, Or a Fed Ex Truck, or the united statestruck. on the Glenn. If a cow replaced into to snigger particularly stressful, might milk pop out that is nostril???
