Nascar 2009

I greatly admire the amount of fabrication and engineering that goes into building a NASCAR car, but that is all dialed in and allmost a science now.

You obviously have not followed Nascar very closely or you would not make the statement about being dialed in. I think every Cup driver and crew chief would tell you up front that nothing is dialed in. These crews make changes from start of race to the end trying to get their car "dialed in". Most never do. Track conditions change over the course of the race and so does their setup.

If in NASCAR rubbing is racing, in KOH they dont rub, they will drive right over your car if they cant ram it out of the way.

There are tracks that rubbing is all that the cars can stand without major damage. There are tracks like Talledega and Martinsville where ramming is just a part of racing.

Rumor has it that Danica Patrick is actively trying to get a ride with Penske racing probably on a limited basis for 2010.

I was reading in the NASCAR Scene rag that DP will run a few races at the end of the season. Tony Stewart has been talking to her and he hinted at her taking the wheel soon.

Kyle Busch fans....

A question?

Do you think that if KB kept his schedule to the Nationwide and Sprint series he would have a better chance of winning the Sprint Cup?

The dude can drive-but I think that since he drives all three series that he doesn't focus on the 'prize'.

I am not a KB fan, but seeing him spread his weekends out make me wonder about what he could do if he was 'dedicated' to racing Cup and just a few races in the NWS.....

I wonder what the numbers look like when he does one or two races a weekend as opposed to 3?

What a wild ride! So glad Joey was okay!!

Internersting stats for the week...no driver that has won Dover has won the championship....

No driver thathas been leading the points after Dover has won the championship....

I have to hold on to the little things!

Didn't agree with the call for Tony to pit onthe last caution...I think he would have finished better if he hadn't...but Top 10 runs for both SHR cars. I'll take it.

Again,

"Go forth, be humble....You can't win every race....second place is just as good"

Amen.

That wreck just took my breath away. I was so glad that he got out and was alright. Those cars sure have come a long way.

And I agree, Tony shouldn't have stopped. I was really surprised he did. Oh well.

Insterenting facts Amy. Let's hope it works out like that!
