Rain Chaos @ ALMS Mid Ohio 2011 HD - YouTube

...I don't think the ALMS guys are bragging after their last wet weather experience. :D

[73sbVert]

For the pansies that either won't race (or the directors that won't let them), two words for you: RAIN TIRES!!!

:rolleyes:


Good grief, F1 and most other sanctioned racing bodies race in the rain, at speed, and they make left AND RIGHT turns. :(

Woosies.

[mike100]

I bet the advertising interests lose a lot on this race due to most people having to be at work.

That and a lot more people call in sick i bet!

Was Joe Urine Stream a NASCAR fan?
Here's a small excerpt from the idiots battle with Bryan on last years Daytona. I think it was just before his epic meltdown of 2011:rofl:
I wonder why many of top drivers are not thinking like you about him being the real deal like 4 time champ Gorden ? Ok mister nascar lets hear it.:D

Read what I wrote before arguing with it. :rolleyes:

I never said he wasn't a good driver or that he wouldn't be great someday. The kid obviously has talent (just like Joey Logano, Kyle Busch, Keselowski, and a lot of the other young kids). I said that basing it on the fact that he won the Daytona 500 is premature.

...and it's Gordon, not Gorden.

...and on a side note, weren't you the one yapping about the fact that they are bringing up drivers too soon?? You don't think that a 20 year old who doesn't even have a Nationwide Series win is too soon? Let's look at his career stats from that series shall we?

Starts - 49
Wins - 0
Top 5 - 5
Top 10 - 12
Avg Start - 12.5
Avg Finish - 16.8 (looks to me like he wads up a lot of cars)

He was driving a Roush car in 2010 so you can't blame the car.

Like I said, the kid might turn out to be great but as of right now, he is a kid that got lucky and won the Daytona 500. The fact that Jeff Gordon will draft with him at Daytona doesn't mean a thing.

Since you claim I love Kyle Busch I thought I might use him as a little comparison.

Let's look at their first full season in a Nationwide car and see how Bayne compares to Busch.

Kyle Trevor
Age: 19 19
Starts: 34 34
Wins: 5 0
Top 5: 16 5
Top 10: 22 10
Avg Finish: 9.4 16.3
SERIES POINTS 2nd 8th


You say that Kyle got brought to Cup too soon but that Trevor is the "real deal" and should be in a cup car? :skep:

WOW, 3 posts I guess I hit a sore spot.:D and you are right Mister NASCAR it is Gordon not Gorden. That's about all you are right about. IMO

Please enlighten me.

I know I am not wrong in the stats that I posted.

I know I'm not wrong in saying that at 19 years old Kyle Busch had a hell of a lot better resume than Bayne.

I know I'm not wrong in remembering that you said that Busch was brought up too soon yet with Bayne you have completely contradicted yourself.

I know I'm not wrong in the fact that winning at Daytona (or Talladega) is not very representative of the best driver.

So please, rather than using a blanket statement... please tell me what it is that I am wrong about. :waiting:

...and feel free to stop with this condescending bullsh*t at any time.

If winning the plate races has nothing to do with being the best driver at the time then it should be all types of tracks because all of your reasons would work anywhere else. PS don't forget to spell check my post, we could also add that to your title here. " Mister NASCAR The spell check Moderator ":hurray:

You talk about not being able to have any fun over at the other place what's your problem. That only works when your on the giving end not the receiving end. Would correcting somones spelling be also classified as " condesending". :seeya::leaving:

Joe, Are you mad because you were not choose to be a moderator here?
:rofl::rofl::rofl: The best!
The spelling correction was a response to the mister NASCAR crap (which came first) so yes, it was meant to be condescending and it was very much intentional.

I have no problem being on the receiving end of good natured joking. Hell, there have been threads here dedicated solely to that purpose. However, there is a big difference between having fun joking and your replies. I don't see the joking in yours... I see arguing (with the condescending crap thrown in for good measure).

Pete not at all. Like they say things work out for the best. Like someone said this place is more for having fun than real corvette stuff. So I guess it is in the eye of the beholder what fun is to be here. Mad, hell no just trying to spark this place up a little. Some call it condesending, hope I spelled it right.:lol:

Ahhhhhhh yes.


I do believe that was right before he took his complaint against me and the Barn to the FCC. Hey Joe, how's that working out for you. :rofl:

What pissed you off, Oh Mighty One?

I think the track surface may be too cooked to race on......:shots:

The Fates are saying NO!!!!!!!! to Daytona this year!!

That track has to be f'ked.

[Sweet 90]

I always thought there wasn't anything on a track Montoya hasn't hit yet, Well he proved me wrong again:D

[RedLS1GTO]

Like I said in the OT thread...

Thank GOD it wasn't Danica that piled up the safety truck. I can't even imagine what would be said if it was her.

The interwebs might actually implode.

Oh how epic that would've been. She probably would have pulled the jet drier guy out and beat the shit out of him for getting in her way:lol:

Honestly, I don't know if her career could have taken that.

She gets WAY more love from the media than she deserves... but she also gets a LOT more hate from people. This would have been on the beyond epic scale.

When the media elevates you to a godess status, every sneeze and fart is a celebratory event! Maybe Montoya was jealous of Danica's coverage...."Let's take out the drier truck and get some press"! Even bad attention is still attention....just sayin'..

Jr got 2d!!! Biffle wasn't abandoning his team mate so Jr took the chance and changed a 3d place finish into a 2d!
:cert:

[Sweet 90]

Kenseth should kiss the Biffs ass for that one. JR 2nd, not bad

[RedLS1GTO]

I can't f**king believe Biffle didn't try to win.

This is Daytona. Worst case, you still have your team cars in the top 3.

I wonder how that 3rd place will feel 20 years from now.
