Blue Duece Wins Championship

[commando1]

I'll give you my 2 cents NASCAR and as usual it's an angry man rant.

REAL stock car racing:
You drove out of the showroom to the track.
Junior Johnson would show up in overalls and chitkicker boots after finishing a still of moonshine.
He strapped on a Bell Helmet, parked his *** on a bench seat and put the chitkicker to the floor and didn't let up.

NASCAR:
Identical cars with decals for headlights and grill to differentiate the "brands".
Pretty boys chosen for their endorsement appeal.
They strap themselves in a bulletproof coccoon and relay movements to the steering wheel via R/C from the pit.
The see out out a slit so that they are merely playing a video game totally detached from reality.

Who is this Jimmie Johnson girly man anyway?

EXACTLY why I can't "totally" get into modern NASCAR....seems phony and contrived if ya ask me.

What you talkin' 'bout Willis??

Nope, that's not it. The Hispanics have become highly skilled at their trade & they work extremely hard.

You must know something I don't.... It seems you have to go through 100 Hispanics to find one who gives a damm. They may work hard but they don't work smart.

The good part is..... Theres a lot of them around.....

I have been around Mexican & Guatemalan roofers since the late 90's & they are almost 100% good, honest, hard working people. The trick is to find a good foreman who is skilled at managing the worker bees & then you need 1 or 2 skilled guys on each crew to do the detail work. Pretty simple formula.

So how did you feel years back when Petty went to Ford?

I was a kid.

I'm surprised that Gordon and Bowyer behaved during the last race. Bowyer was pretty mad. I'm sure it's not over and will carry on in 2013.

They didn't want to pay any more fines.

Angy old man rant you mean. ;)

I already said that the old stuff is cooler but you can't just have guys getting killed out there if it's preventable so the sport evolved. It is still a sport where highly skilled drivers drive very sophisticated cars at ridiculously high speeds & beat & bang the whole way. I love it.

Jimmy Johnson & Chad Knaus are one of the best teams to ever participate in motor sports. That's who he is.

You got that right. The worst driver in a NASCAR field is better then most all the drivers in other types of auto racing.
Ask Juan Pablo or Danica..... Both ace drivers in their perspective fields... but can't hardly get around the track in a NASCAR stock car.

I love it too.... the best sports events out there.

I thought this would be synchronized swimming.

 

[commando1]

We end up talking about synchronized swimming in a Mopar C-body forum...

Thought that would cheer you up after the oni camber thing. My mistake.

Why do you have me in two quotes when I said neither one of those things?


After seeing your posts I reiterate, you are part of the problem.

I work around these "people" all day long and most are dirty people who have no respect for America or any body other than the people of their own blood.

You are on the Corporate greed side of things then, yes?

I don't know how that happened, I just quoted bluefury.

I'm a huge part of the solution so don't start with me there. I create jobs, I pay lots of taxes, I give back to the community both cash & volunteer work. Don't even try.

I'm on the common sense side of things. Work hard & perfect a skill & you will be rewarded for it.

An awful lot of people see it differently then you ........ Again, in your mind.
