More exciting than playing on a deserted island with some dude named stumpy?? Clipping toenails is more exciting than sitting on a couch watching television commercials interrupted by guys driving weird cars around an oval. Realistically, though, slot car racing on a nice sized and banked commercial track of mid 1960s was more exciting, and there were fewer commercial interruptions. I really think the race oughta stop for commercial breaks. IT would create many more opportunities for pile-ups. Yeah, but you are stupid when it comes to racin'. Kind of like a guy that says he can run a Vista machine based on the fact that he used to program in cobol. Stick to your heritage classes and your buddy stumpy there nork... |

Thanks for helping me help you to understand! His care was "missing a little something", so that he could run wide open. I'm guessing I could drive my pickup wide open, too!

"KYLE BUSCH, No. 18 M&Ms Toyota Camry, Joe Gibbs Racing Finished: 4th After leading the most laps, can you talk about your feelings at the finish? It was a good day. We had the dominant car all day long. I could hold it wide open every single lap of the race." "Handling - the all important indice - being able to stay in the drafting pack that is moving forward. The rest comes down to who is with you on the last lap and how close you are on tire wear. The car and driver most capable of running wide open laps on older tires will separate himself from the rest of the field at Daytona - and the final element is pure luck." While I'm just a lurker here I have to chime in and agree with Sam. I know for a fact that the drivers run Daytona wide open the majority of the time. They only let off slightly when drafting close, have excessive tire wear, bad handling, or are in a tight situation on the track. Most drivers are wide open 99% of the time at Daytona (I still enjoy watching it though) |

I watched the whole race on Directv's Hot Pass and mostly watched the Jr. channel. Never saw/heard him lift at all unless he was behind someone with nowhere to go. That includes 3 wide in the corners. Anyway, I'm glad you liked the race |

Anyway, I'm glad you liked the race Stop right now unless your idea of a good time is banging your head against the wall. I didn't think anyone was banging their head against the wall. We like the COT at Daytona, you don't, bfd... It's not like we are the only ones who are sitting around with mixed feelings, hey, it's car racing, and we are talking about a huge change to the cars. To the basketball guys, imagine the NBA deciding to raise the net a foot or so, so they have to actually shoot again? Or the tennis net up a couple of inches to slow down the serve.. In a few years when the teams sort out this COT, I think it will be better. Yes, they can ride wide open now. Is it that the car will stick forever, or do you think there might be some more speed in there they have not found yet. Do you not think NASCAR is watching this too?? Anyway, here is a litte joke I told my kid the other day: My youngest asked me why they always turn left. I said, "because racin' started in the south, they forgot about right!"... Sorry Loogie, it's just racin' ;) |

Is gordon as good as this guy: http://www.stirlingmoss.com/ The best driver never to win the World Championship, Sir Stirling Moss OBE is arguably the greatest all-round racing driver of all time. Known during his career as ‘Mr Motor Racing’ he began hillclimbing a Cooper 500 in 1948 at the age of 18. His early career was meteoric and soon he was driving works cars for Jaguar and HWM. In 1955 he was signed up by Mercedes-Benz to partner World Champion Fangio. That year Stirling shadowed the great Argentine in most Grands Prix, beating him to win the British GP. Famously, that year he won the incredible Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio and the Tourist Trophy – all legendary sports car races. For four years he would finish runner-up in the World Championship and, after M-B retired, led the Maserati and Vanwall teams. He also continued to drive saloon and sports cars and during his remarkable career drove more 80 different types of car. In the late 50s and early 60s, he led the changeover to rear-engined F1 cars, achieving the first victory for such a car at the 1958 Argentine GP and was in a class of his own during this period. A near-fatal accident ended it all in 1962 but he was to remain a superstar to this day. One of the original jet-setters, he still dashes round the world fulfilling engagements and competing in historic racing. You trust your laptop to the airlines? |

Is gordon as good as this guy: http://www.stirlingmoss.com/ The best driver never to win the World Championship, Sir Stirling Moss OBE is arguably the greatest all-round racing driver of all time. Known during his career as ‘Mr Motor Racing’ he began hillclimbing a Cooper 500 in 1948 at the age of 18. His early career was meteoric and soon he was driving works cars for Jaguar and HWM. In 1955 he was signed up by Mercedes-Benz to partner World Champion Fangio. That year Stirling shadowed the great Argentine in most Grands Prix, beating him to win the British GP. Famously, that year he won the incredible Mille Miglia, the Targa Florio and the Tourist Trophy – all legendary sports car races. For four years he would finish runner-up in the World Championship and, after M-B retired, led the Maserati and Vanwall teams. He also continued to drive saloon and sports cars and during his remarkable career drove more 80 different types of car. In the late 50s and early 60s, he led the changeover to rear-engined F1 cars, achieving the first victory for such a car at the 1958 Argentine GP and was in a class of his own during this period. A near-fatal accident ended it all in 1962 but he was to remain a superstar to this day. One of the original jet-setters, he still dashes round the world fulfilling engagements and competing in historic racing. You trust your laptop to the airlines? This one is an old, old laptop, and not worth much more than U.S. currency these days. I keep the "data" on a USB drive, not on the hard drive. No biggie if it turns up missing forever. Sure. |

Can't even go out of town for a few days without gracing us with his presence. What a pitiful life Krause has. |

LOL, you said the exact thing almost last time JG came up, Then you said you googled him and knew who he was.. Short memory, tough when you are making it up to remember what you said only three weeks ago;) Is gordon as good as this guy: Is he "this gay", yes, he probably is.. I mean, look at the car, listen to him talk... he is gay.;) But he can sure run the wheels off a racecar;) Well, obviously Gordon didn't make much of an impression on my memory. There's no reason why he would, as I am not a fan of left turn only race cars or their drivers. I still don't believe you don't remember a strappingly handsom, possibly gay guy...;) |
