Re: Nascar - 5-Hour Energy 400 at Kansas

Did midcarolina think this was a boring race? I don't think it was.

Haha.......... was wondering if that would come up.............. I didnt see it all but what I did see sure wasnt boring I'll give you that for sure, you think it was the rework of the track that made for such racing?....... I know if the cup guy's raced like those truck guy's it would be great....

I really wanted to watch it, but was out on boat all day got back about 7:00.......had too much to do to watch it all...

Ya know someone had to ask,mid. :smile: If the start/finish was moved about 50 feet, I'm guessing Harvick would have given Gordon another 2nd place finish.

I can't recall any debris cautions, either. Surprise, surprise.

I would say that was one of the best races to watch in a long time.

Even tho they had a bunch of wrecks...... Hmmmmmmmmmmm.....................:facepalm: How many debris cautions do you see in trucks and they're wrecking a lot more than Cup?????

The only questionable flags were for donut holes on the track from clean spins with no contact. Would those be considered "debris" cautions?

You know I don't see any flags in truck races, Musky. :facepalm:

Yeah, I was gonna mention driving skills to midcarolina, but Danica got a 7th...

Hey, don't be dissin' on Danica........ Maybe that was her breakout race......:lol:

I think with modern race equipment it doesnt matter if a driver has a inee or a outee.......There are certain things you cannot teach

She either does not think she belongs up front....or refuses to be aggressive enough to get there.......I think mistakes early in her nascar career still haunt her.........

The best drivers are the ones who do not mind who they **** off....they are there to win! The one that was the best at that is no longer with us..........

Or I could be totally off my rocker..........who knows

Re: Nascar - 5-Hour Energy 400 at Kansas

Actually, finishing 7th could be a huge confidence builder. Maybe instead of being so timid all the time she decided to race. Or, it was a fluke. To be honest, I'd like to see her get it together and start performing at a higher level... Time will tell....... A short time, we'll know in a hurry.......

Re: Nascar - 5-Hour Energy 400 at Kansas

She has actually been changing quickly this season, I suspect whe will get it together over the next couple of seasons, once she gets over the rubbing is racing thing, I believe she is going to start fighting back.

When she give someone the chrome horn we'll know she's fitting in.

Sam - You better talk to Kyle and Tyke.
