Thanks for the ‘ping’ G.R.

Even w/the ping I’m posting in the mid 20’s. A preview of my score, I fear.

Can’t wait to see who will have the hot wheel this weekend.

I do agree on that one.

Seems to me I heard some scuttlebutt along these lines a few weeks ago.

I really got my intereset working after junior put on such an awesome display at Daytona, running his own car/team.

I don’t believe that Hendricks is helping Junior like they could.

Hendricks is poison for Jr.

Hendricks is JJ and a touch of Flash. Period.

You’d think such a stable could give him a car that contended.

Explain... JMHO.

Well, I think there is more to this. Frickin can’t stand Jimmie Johnson, but if they are getting the same equipment, what’s the problem? Hendrick has the best team in the business.
Perhaps all these “young guns” are closing the gap..... I want to see Jr succeed. I just know what it will take.

I think that he would do much better with Childress, to be honest.

I wasn’t really kean on his going with Hendricks to begin with. They already had vested interests in keeping their two boys (Gorden and Johnson) at the top of the heap. What better way to do that than to “control” Junior?

As I said...this is just my opinion.

I can go with that. But why not make Jr a winner? He’s got the fan base, sponsors, and name. His season could be worse. And a really question his victory in the #3. It was nice to see but what a coincidence.

If they put the resources behind Junior that they did Gordon and Johnson, then those two boys would come unglued. Could you imagine what that would be like?

At least that’s the way that I see it.

Remember, that the Nationwide race at Daytona was Junior’s car. His team. That was his deal, separate from his Hendricks deal. If I remember correctly, the engine came from Hendricks, but that was it. The rest was Junior. This is what really got my attention.

Coulda Woulda Shoulda = Jr. Isn’t it ironic that Gannnasi + DEI is having no problem finding drivers who can convey to their crew chiefs what their cars need in the way of adjustment. Like they say in racing, Just my humble opinion...

Well...I guess that we’ll just have to see how tings shake out, won’t we?

Wonder when Stroker will start taking his shots at NASCAR.

Gubmint Motors entering their Volt in the 2012 Daytona 500?

High qualifying speeds in excess of 30mph?

These are not your typical Voltsvagens ...

The owner of this Hot Rod was wearing a robe and had a long white beard much like the Disciples. I never saw the batter pack but I'll take his word for it...

Batteries or no batteries the extension cord was a nice touch...
