Agreed. But class don't pay the bills....or fill your trophy wall.

OH...almost forgot....anyone remember when after Shane Hmiel flipped off Dale Jarret....Sterling Marlin made the comment "I'd show that boy what the rest of the hand is used for"

I am sure that there walls are filled and as far as bills not a problem, How many dealerships is it that Martin owns ?

Really, but I remember that race, God that was funny. Last year they interviewed this up and coming young black driver, I don't remember his name, but they asked him if he were ever to win a Cup race, what would he do. He replied "Well I won't be partying in the infield at Talladega"

Sure....but how many CUPS do they have on that wall? Granted, Martin came in 2nd 5 times, and if they gave them away for sentimentality, he'd have 5 titles.

Dale Sr. and Petty both have 7 titles....under the old points system. And under that same points system, Gordon would now have 6. I hate the Chase. It sucks. I liken it to the electoral system....the same one that gave us Obama. Granted, it's been great for J.J., for which I am grateful, but still.....most points should win the cup.

OK, rant off .

I was sitting in turn 3, row 1, about 10 feet from where Kurt hit the wall on this one...

Still, nothing was funnier than Gordon rubbing it in their faces for a second time. Priceless. Bunch of cuzin-phuckin' hillbillies.

I've always admired Gordon. I like anything that upsets the status quo.

All good picks but Tony will be

in victory lane.

Don't get me started on " JJ " ( Good Times ) IMO and only IMO that team are the best cheats in all of NASCAR because I don't really think today the driver has as much to do with winning as in the old days, how they get away with it I don't know. If not then why are the other Hen. drivers cars so different ? He pulls away from them all the time.

Chad Knaus is hands down, no question, end of discussion the most brilliant crew chief in the history of NASCAR. The only possible competition would be from Ray Evernham had he stayed in that role.

JJ is good enough not to screw it up and has a good enough understanding to tell Chad what he needs (the second part is where Dale Jr is lightyears behind the curve).

That is a distinct possib....I mean, probability.

Although I'm new to watching Nascar (08'), last year something went wrong with the 48 and they had to keep pitting to fix it, down 3 laps and finished the race 10th-

that showed me why, between JJ and CK, they've won 5 yrs in a row.

Not a bad observation for a NASCAR nOOb.
