Re: Bristol..........

I totally agree. Shrub may be the best driver out there as far as car control. With him it is more about emotions and patience or he would have at least one Championship in Cup.

I can't remember if it was Daytona or Phoenix, but he (Kyle Larson) raced clean beside Jimmy Johnson for many laps. That is when he sprked my interest.

It was Phoenix. 1st Nationwide race for JJ in a looong time. It was awesome. They were glued together for a long time.

Re: Bristol..........

OK. All better. I do love Bristol though. Sucks when your guy is out so early. And the car was good all weekend. Grrrrr. I am so fickle. Usually don't like Logano, but I was hoping he'd get to Hamlin on the last restart. Hendrick wins, but has two cars into the wall. That's racin' I guess. I was actually happy the 78 did well. Kurt Busch sunk so low I am now rooting for him :facepalm: I usually root for the #31 (wreck), the #7 (Blaney, wreck), and I follow all the RCR cars. I guess the #78 is an extension, so there you go. The #27 did OK (9th).

Boy the reality is setting in on those who saw Danica as ready after Daytona. Knew that, but the whole world was on that bus. I'd love to see her do better, but this is flippin' hard!!

Re: Bristol..........

I was hoping Logano would get to Hamlin too! How many laps at the end did Hamlin bounce off the wall because he couldn't steer the thing??!! It was comical...... Yeah, Danica still has a long road ahead of her. Hopefully she can make it... It will be a while before I board that bus. QC, you're rooting for a Busch??????:facepalm: I just can't do it......

Danica....Chereos.....and Penguins?.....In the same thread!! :confused:

Listening on the radio it sounded like a good race. When we heard Danica got the "lucky dog" my fishin' buddy (who is a Danica fan, probably like many of us) says " She got the "lucky bit..." OH...nevermind! A female dog. :facepalm:

Re: Bristol..........

Danica, needs to get over her open wheel, "Don't get close to me" fear, she has to realize that these NASCAR's don't blow apart like an indy car, she is so afraid of getting hit, or hitting someone else, she is never going to do anything. Rubbin is racing and she needs to figure that out.

Re: Bristol..........

That was a good race. I got back into the fantasy racing after many years of retirement. It is kinda fun! I won in my group this week for the 1st time.

It is the nascar fantasy live thing. Next year we will start one for those that frequent dockside/nascar.
