Eh, Smoke dont bother me. Never would have thought #24 would push it like that though. He needs to start thinking points.

Can we move this into the serious business thread? Didn't we decide nascar wasn't a sport? It's tiring seeing it pop to the top of the sports thread forum when it clearly needs to be in the general business sections.

Eh..he still had a Top 10 finish though. Can't really fault him for falling in the points. He fought for that finish too.

Yep, just takes a lot luck to win plate races! It's just a matter of being in the right place at the right time.

Yes, especially when it moved Kurt into the Top 10, and Kurt was my fantasy pick. :D

He's one of the bigger whiners in the sport..so I love it whenever he fucks up at something. People bitch about Kyle, but Tony does the same shit. Gets pissed off and he throws a little temper tantrum or won't talk to the media.

restrictor plate = dumb. i say, if you don't want them getting up to 215, restrict the whole engine. i'm serious, make it 4.7L or something smaller than 5.86L for the Daytona and Talledega races.

ARCA was rained out, ran this morning. The last 30 laps were kick ass. Dillon beat Kimmel at the line by a fender. There was no big crash, lets see if the bigtime Nascar drivers can get to the checkered. The pole speeds are pathetic. 178mph? The slowest pole EVER at Talladega?

^^^Coyotes has internet problems right now and asked me to post for him that he LOL'd at that.^^^Also, wants to remind everyone that Jr will be in the same chassis that he had for the Gatorade Duel, it's #88-629...........and that Dale and Steve still like to chat with one another on the radio during caution flags. That's all for now, maybe update later as good info comes in.
