NASCAR 2010 Season

[Mr Tony]

Kyle Busch is "Historic" winning all 3 events over the weekend .....

Yippie

yay

 

[Ramy]

I bet you guys had no problem when Earnhardt, Sr. was doing the same things? When he took out Labonte out to win there, I guess that was just him being the Intimidator.

I know all you Junior fans hate anyone who actually lives up to the hype, unlike a guy who only has a name and hardly any ability. If his name were Smith, the criminal, err Hendrick, would of fired him already.

Not me. I wanted him lynched after doing that. Terry was my favorite driver and I was already pissed at DW for spinning Terry out a few laps before that.

Road Race...

 

[Ramy]

Blah, and it is Nationwide

 

[Mr Tony]

I'm not big on the road races but this one was crazy especially at the end.

Boris Said wins it (finally he wins a race)

 

[Scott Greczkowski]

Great finish to the race. That's what you call racing.

 

[Jimbo]

Great finish to the race. That's what you call racing.

I didn't know you were a Race Fan :up

 

[Ramy]

I didn't know you were a Race Fan :up

A closet race fan.:up

It was a great finish, glad Boris finally won one!

 

[stimpson]

I bet the Said Heads were happy!!!

 

[Mr Tony]

Smoke wins

sadly Saturday's race will pretty much be non-exciting as 10 spots are already confirmed for the chase...and 11 & 12 are pretty much locked unless something catastrophic happens

 

[Mr Tony]

well now the playoff system starts and lets see how NASCAR "Jimmy" Rigs the last 10 races

Hamlin is 1st and Jimmy is now 2nd...10 points behind

WOW

 

[Mr Tony]

well they reset for the Chase

Top 12 start at 5000 points
10 points for each win in the last 26 races

so Hamlin had 6 wins and Jimmy has 5
Hamlin 5060
Jimmy 5050

 

[Mr Tony]

Isn't that the way it's suppose to be ?

6-5 wins equals 10 points difference ?

I like the OLD way better.
