Anyone watch it? Anyone agree that Tony Stewart is a douchebag?


Anyone care about nascar for that matter or is it just me.:rolleyes:

[Jaged]

Just you.

Stewart = Fucktard that should be fucking banned for his fucktardedness.

Johnson = Should also be banned because I also dislike him too, about as much as i like stewart right now.

I swear, If mears went with newman, newman would have won. If stewart didnt fuck up kenseth then Kenseth Would have won.

I love nascar by the way. My 5 favourite drivers are listed in order:

1. 16 - Greg Biffle
2. 12 - Ryan Newman
3. 17 - Matt Kenseth
4. 88 - Dale Jarrett
5. 99 - Carl Edwards

Also, Im one of the few people that doesnt Dislike Kurt Busch that much...

On top of that, I think I did poorly in Fantasy racing too, as I used Kenseth, Mears, Jarrett, and Petty...

[Hamma]

I watched it - not an avid follower but I agree Stewart is a dolt. :lol:

[BUGGER]

yeah Petty got owned by Edwards in the face....literally.



My top favorites be:
1. Jeff Gordon. Since i was 5 i always recognized the rainbow colored car. It stuck to be my ultimate favorite driver.
2/3. Jimmy Johnson/Dale Jr. (these two are debateable for 2nd....half because now i love it when jr. won the 500 when i was there)
4. Carl Edwards...just cause.
5. Elliot Sadler.....his hair...

Funny after the race, Sadler was talking about how nice the Megatrons were and how during a caution he would look over to see who caused the crash on them or nice moves made earlier in the race. That would so be me.....almost bored in the middle of the race just looking over at the giant tvs. :lol:


There was also some good commercials on too. Like one with the bowling ball flying out and nocking out that one guy.....it made me laugh real loud.


Out here in California next Sunday....hopefully for a birthday present i can go to a restraunt and devote their big screen tv to nascar. :D

Now, see, the ironic thing about this race, is, Stewart said that people should be careful, because if they arent, some one is going to get killed. I guess his quotes dont apply to him. Its ok if he messes with #24s susspension and body work, and there defintley isnt a problem with sending the #17 through the grass, and back up onto the track, facing cars traveling at 190+ mph. What is this guys problem?

[OneManArmy]

vanu driving lessons.

[Marsman]

Yeah that move by Stewart was totally uncalled for. Aggressive driving violations that blatent should be dealt with more severly than moving to the back of the pack imo.

[Hamma]

Aye - remove his steering wheel. :brow:

There is story behind that. Apperently earlier in the race Stewart got very loose coming out of turn 2 and apperently he blamed Kenseth.

To me it looks like Tony Stewart is going back to his old habbits.....playing dirty.

It wasn't Gordons suspension he screwed up, just the tail and a scrub on the nose. I missed how Gordon's tranny got hurt. Was that Stewart, or just a rare cause? Because that was really hurting him on the restarts having to go from 1st to 4th gear.

I think that getting run into the wall may have contributed to the transmision problems. And I do recall stewart saying something about kenseth arround lap 20. He says that stewart took his air away and made him loose. I say, oh well, its racing, cars drive beside eachother.

I was at the race, end of the front stretch, 2nd from top row seat. It started out pretty boring, but after the Gordon/Stewart incident, it became a pretty good race.

Stewart definitely is an idiot. The Gordon incident, granted, wasn't his fault, since both cars were aero pushed. However, as I was listening to Gordon's channel on my scanner, Gordon got really mad over a block Stewart made on him shortly after. The whole Kenseth thing was the most blatant move I've ever seen. Kenseth is a saint for not retaliating anymore than flipping him off. It is extremely ironic that he would be the person to initiate such rough driving after he called for a reduction on bump drafting. He should be suspended for a race along with Knaus for that shit.

As far as Gordon's suspension, it was messed up when he moved off the banking onto the apron and back again to avoid the Carl Edwards wreck. Heard that on the scanner. Was shocked at how well his day was actually going to end up until he got collected in that last wreck.

The ending sucked, but a green white checker on a restrictor track always does. I was happy though since I had Sadler in my pool. Overall it was a pretty decent race, just really hate that Johnson won, as all we're gonna hear about for the next week is how he "overcame adversity."

[Mag-Mower]

In my opinion, for a G-W-C finish at a superspeedway, it should be G-G-W-C. These cars just simply cant get up to speed in 2 laps to have a decnet finish.

[Kikinchikin]

Totally agree. My idea was as follows:

Intermediate tracks (Over 1 mile- 2 mile) keeps the current GWC format.
Short tracks (1 mile and under) does a 5 lap shootout.
Restrictor plate races (2 and up effectively) does a 3 lap shootout like you said.

I think you could keep the one try policy the same for all of them, but it would give the drivers a little better chance than just two laps, because 2 laps at Bristol or Daytona just won't help anything.

[BUGGER]

True dat.


Cept for Roadcourses....Sonoma everyone is up to speed on turn 3 and Glen on turn 1. Never watched a Glen race though....Nascar goes to TNT at that time and i dont get cable.

[Jennyboo]

When I think of Tony Stewart one word comes to mind *asshole* :lol:

[xuur]

Stewarts problem is he wants to be perceived as the new "Intimidator".
Sadly he hasnt a clue what that means and ends up the exhassperator instead.
