NASCAR Anyone?
Hey I was just wondering if there was any NASCAR Nextel Cup fans on TPWW? I doubt there are since there are no threads about NASCAR but just in case I thought I'd post this thread. So for the NASCAR fans out there; Who's your favorite driver and why? Least favorite?


I don't have a certain favorite driver because I am a relatively new fan. I didn't start watching until near the end of last season. But I have watched every race since I have became a fan with the exception of one of the night races. I haven't picked a certain driver that I'm a huge fan of although I really like Kasey Kahne. He's pretty good to be a rookie. I just haven't seen anybody that impressed me enough for me to become a die hard fan of any one specific driver. Dale Jr. is overrated in my opinion. He was doing pretty good at the beginning of the season but then he started slacking. I absolutely can't stand Jeff Gordon, Jimmie Johnson, and Tony Stewart. I'm not too crazy about Ryan Newman either. Matt Kenseth is ok though and Kevin Harvick is a straight up jackass. Anybody else got an thoughts on these guys?

I like Nascar.

Favorite driver -was- Dale Sr., now is Dale Jr. regardless of what people say. I can't just 'change' favorite drivers just because someone isn't at the top of their game anymore.

HAHAHAHAHA NASCAR!!!!


lol i ran the Inaugural Gertner 4 double I yesterday. I nubered 40 socks and put them in a drier. 4 socks got provisionals because they were good socks in the past. Then I let the drier spin around 400 times, and when a sock fell out, a full course yellow was called. Somehow car #3 crashed into the side of the washer and was never seen from again. At the end of the 400 laps I pulled out a random sock. #44 who ended up being the winter.


BTW this topic should be under the "Discussion" forum. We all know you guys are just pretending to be NASCAR fans. We all know that Trailers are not internet compatible.

Back in sophomore year we had to write satires for English class, and mine was on how lame NASCAR is. Now three years later I find myself intrigued by NASCAR as a whole. The atmosphere at the events is unmatched, the intricate scoring systems, the different styles, the controversys. Its something that I am slowly learning more and more about, and although I do not find the races amusing to watch (until the last few laps) I do find the league intriguing and am a fan.

I'm a big NASCAR fan myself, hence the #17 Kenseth avatar. But I don't post too much about it since I've tried before and it hasn't been well recieved.

But favorite driver is Kenseth, 2003 champion. Other favorites are mainly the FORD drivers. Not a fan of the Gordon's, Jimmie Johnson, and Harvick. I don't mind Dale Jr, but I've disliked him more when you see how much he gets favored. Have yet to go to an actual Cup race, but have been to a few Busch and Truck races. But this season has been one of the strangest yet. From lengthy cautions, to missed calls, Tony Stewart's behavior worse than usual, and now finally a green/white/checkerd.

Im a big Nascar fan also. I tried posting a link about Nascar a while back but the only person that replied positively to it was RGwhat316.

Im a big fan and i have been watching it for a long time. Im a big fan of Terry Labonte and this year I have started to become a fan of Kasey Kahne. Probably since its his first year and all. I seem to become fans of the rookies. I am not a big fan of either of the Gordans or Stewart and much to what people have to say I am not a big fan of Dale Jr. It just seems like hes everywhere right now. Sorta like how the Lakers are to Basketball and how the Yankees are to Baseball.

nice comeback dude.

and btw, I've seen the fans at car races. It's the same fucks who wear dirty mark martin shirts, wearing fanny packs, smelling of beer. The only reason why they are fans is because it's the easiest sport to get! watching cars make 1 left turn for 3 hours.

I think any series that gives drivers spots based on their past performance is retarded.

that would be like since the New england Patriots won the super bowl last year, they automatically make the playoffs this year.

Two more races before the post season. I'm really crossing my fingers for Kahne to boot Newman (the big prick), and I'm really hoping that Harvick wins it all.

I think this new chase is positive for fan support, ratings, advertising for the last 10 races, and really benefical to anyone but the leader of the points. This will make for exciting racing only question i have, what if a non-chase driver is leading with a chase driver behind, will they "move-over" for an easy buck or two? intresting in my opinion

I got a chance to go to the Busch/Cup weekend at MIS for the first time last week. Was a blast for me. Got to meet Scott Riggs, Ryan Newman, and Robby Gordon.

As for the chase, I'm enjoying it more than I thought I would. I originally didn't like it because they changed it due to my driver, Kenseth's, dominant year last year. But I do hate it for people who don't make it since they don't have anything to go for towards the end of the year. But I am really pulling for Martin to get into the top 10. Scratch off Daytona, Charlotte, Chicago, and Indy, Mark would already be in the top 10. So i really hope he makes it.

I was very against the new points at first but it's starting to interest me, especially with 2 races before everything is reset and then 10 drivers having a shot at the title instead of the usual 2 or 3.

But yeah my favorites are Rusty Wallace, Jamie McMurray, Terry Labonte and Ryan Newman.

You know, I would negative rep you, but it seems like you just enjoying being an asshole so it probably doesn't mean a damn thing to you.

But speaking of missing teeth, you seem to like hockey. You want to talk about missing teeth, most hockey players don't have too many. I don't like hockey, so I could easily bash that too.

It also seems that you maybe a closet Nascar fan since you seem to know an awful lot about whats going on, but maybe just not a fan of it.

Theres no use in arguing with an ass like this guy, Ok, you can make fun, and you can get ur cheap jabs in but just one fact says your in the minority...

8 of the 10 highest attended sporting events of 2003 is.. yea you guessed it NASCAR races.


Enough with the deush, Im lovin this chase now just due to the fact there is alot more people getting intrested because "their" driver got a shot at it, i mean for instance, all the bad luck Mark Martin has had this year and now hes in 10th and still got a shot at the title, just insane
