Is there any members here that likes Nascar? If so, which Nascar Cup series do you prefer, the Nextel or the Busch Series...? And also, which driver(s) do you like, even if it's more than one driver...?

I personally like the Nextel Cup Series...where the bigger names races in...and some of the drivers I like is as follows: Sterling Marlin, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Kevin Harvick, Matt Kenseth and Mark Martin...there is one driver that really is interesting to watch and does looks like he may become a phenomenal driver in the future as he's a rookie driver...and that is Kasey Kahne, driving the number 9 car. Anything else you would like to add, go for it....

I used to follow NASCAR and watch it whenever I see it on TV. Liked to watch Dale Earhardt, Jeff Gordon, a few others as well. Just been a bit behind on watching it these days.

I'm not exactly a Nascar fan. I do watch some of the races when I'm bored though.

Don't follow Nascar, although I have a good idea of who Jeff Gordon is. One of my exes had a picture of him on his living room wall. He was mighty proud of that man...or envious, you pick!!

Roadrunner

Well, guess what? Gordon wins it today under the caution/yellow flag...*sighs*...when the caution was brought out on lap 4 or 5, and I sure was thinking they would restart on lap 2, but apparently didn't and finished the race under the caution, I was kinda disappointed that they didn't restart with at least two laps remaining...*shrugs*...I don't too much care for Jeff Gordon either, but I do respect him as a man and driver, so therefore, my hat's off to him for the win today!!

Its not fair. It suppose to red flag. What a suck!

Anyway, I glad that Jr is still lead for point standing.

Jacques Villenuve has always been my number one driver, I followed him from Formula One to Nascar. Jacques has always been compared too often to his late father, Gilles, which I believe is unfair because both Gilles and Jacques, respectively have their own spotlight. The fact they're French-Canadians also helps!!! Vive le Canada!!!

Roadrunner

The final outcome is still unofficial...it's worth noting that after the race, Earnhardt had mentioned that once he had passed the number 24 car and passing the caution lights and noting that the yellow light wasn't even on....It'll be interesting to see how this turns out, when a caution is up, the field is frozen immediately....I still think there may be a possibility that the number 8 car was indeed in front of the 24 car prior to the activation of the caution....although, Jeff Gordan went to the victory lane and celebrated...wouldn't it be something if Nascar did overturn the final standings and rewarded Earnhardt the victory?! However, Earnhardt was polite enough to say that it wasn't something he was going stomp his feet about....shows true character of sportmanship!

Huh? I dont recall Jacques Villeneuve doing NASCAR.....

He did CART Indy Car (the old series before the Indy Racing League-CART war ) before jumping over to Formula One. During his time there, he won the Indianapolis 500 in 1995.

NASCAR fan here!

I watch the NASCAR when I can.

My favorite drivers are:
Dale Earnhardt Jr. (Budweiser, 8, Chevy)
Bill Elliot (Dodge, 9, Dodge)
Sterling Marlin (Coors Light, 40, Dodge)

I personally love those Dodge cars but Earnhardt Jr is a expection because I loved the Earnhardts!


Number 3,
Forever in our heart!

Socrates

A car's a car to me!! However, his face.. *swoons!*

CrazyMomma

I am a BIG fan of Nextel Cup.. I loves Little E (Dale Earnhardts Jr.) and his red Budweiser car. He got a fast car and I just love his driving stunts.

My previous favorite was Big E (Dale Earnhardts - #3) and I bawled my eyes out when he died from hitting the wall.

I have been in Darlington Race Track, Dover Race Track, Bristol Track, Martinsville Track, Richmond Track, Charlotte Track and Daytona Beach Track.
My favorite to go watch NASCAR is in Daytona Beach Track.

sablescort

FYI....Bill Elliott is semi-retired right now. Kasey Kahne took over the #9 car this year.

Kahne was so close to winning this year with 2 2nd places. Look for him to be the next Jeff Gordon (after all Kahne is driving for Evernham)....

Yeah, my cousin told me. My cousin is a big NASCAR fan, bigger than me, lol.

Roadrunner

Heard of the Grand Prix, and have watched it several times in the past...and the cars are more capable of achieving more speed in these races and is also fun to watch too....although, I'll stick to Nascar as the popularity of this sport has risen over the past few years....but Red~Rum, enjoy your Grand Prix races with your hubby!!!

Any of you have any idea who's gonna win the Fontana race in California tomw. (May 2nd)? I'm going with either Kasey Kahne or Kevin Harvick....it's about time one of those two win a race...as for Harvick, he's a California native...although, it's more likely someone else may win it....if so, I'd rather have my fav driver win, Sterling Marlin, the number 40 Coors car....let's hope for a great race tomw....*awaiting for the race to start!!*...Enjoy the race!

*raise my hand* I am NASCAR fan.

When Dale Earnhardt, Sr. died, I was upset and sad for NASCAR. Everything was on newspaper. Then one year later (2002), I met my ex-girlfriend online who was NASCAR fan. I became really addicted to NASCAR after that. I influence my parents to get interested in NASCAR. Now, 2004, I am still fan of NASCAR. Right now, I am trying to influence my current girlfriend to get interests in NASCAR. I visited 2 racetracks (Darlington Raceway and Atlanta Motor Speedway). I have goal to visit Daytona International Speedway.

DeafSCUBA98

dang... Jeff Gordon won again today seesh.. at last 50 laps i was chanting " jeff gordon crash! jeff gordon crash!" guess it doesn't work

i'm surprised #9 did excellent job today and he's a rookie. however i think he should be in 1st place.. but its close till near end he got some bad lucks.

Wallace blasts Stewart after early-race incident
By Marty Smith, Turner Sports Interactive May 2, 2004
9:13 PM EDT (0113 GMT)


FONTANA, Calif. -- Tony Stewart's on-track aggression has been a topic of concern for several weeks now, so much so that Nextel Cup Series director John Darby sat the former champion down for an ol' fashioned talkin' to late last weekend.

Following the pow-wow, Darby said the issue was dead.

Rusty Wallace begs to differ.

Following a collision with Kurt Busch on Lap 58 of Sunday's Auto Club 500, Wallace exited his car, surveyed the extensive damage to the left front of his ride, then stormed off to his transporter.

Several minutes later, he emerged with a verbal lashing for Stewart.

"I'll talk to him, right in the eye. He needs to a good talkin' to by somebody," Wallace said. "I'm gonna do a lot better job talking to him than NASCAR will. I'm going to talk to him driver-to-driver.

"He needs some help. He's in a ditch right now. I don't know what's wrong with the guy. I like the fella. He's a good friend, but he's really screwing up a lot lately."

Wallace named several instances this year when he received what he considered unnecessary hits from Stewart, including one early in Sunday's race.

"He got me in the back really hard at Bristol, got me in the back real hard at Martinsville, caused a huge darn wreck last week at Talladega then runs me right through the fence this time," Wallace said.

"I'm on the outside, right against the wall, and he comes flying up and drives through me, knocks the side off of it, completely ruins the car.

"Then, he pulls up alongside and starts flipping me off on the restart. I wanted to get out of the car and whip his rear end, I'll tell you what. The kid needs to calm down a little bit. He's really frustrated for some reason."

Stewart saw it differently, saying Wallace was the instigator.

"We came off of (Turn) 2 and we got together, and that put him in the wall," Stewart said. "But the corner before that he drove right down into the left side of us like we weren't even there. So I don't know why he's pointing the finger at somebody else."

Jimmie Johnson, Sunday's second-place finisher, had a front row seat for the skirmish.

"I think what you had today was a battle of two very strong-minded guys, competitive guys," Johnson said. "Being behind it, I saw those guys racing really hard. Nobody was doing anything wrong.

"The problem was they were racing so hard, so early, that they were so close it sucked the air off the back of (Stewart) and took (Wallace) into the fence. I could see something was going to take place, it was just a matter of time."

Ironically, it was Wallace that stood up for Stewart in the media this past week. Folks wanted answers why Stewart was having so many on-track run-ins. He'd gotten into Andy Hillenburg and Kasey Kahne at Darlington and hit Scott Wimmer during a caution at Bristol.

Last week at Talladega, he hit Kurt Busch to trigger the "Big One," then swerved into Terry Labonte after taking the checkered flag.

Wallace said his defense of Stewart is over.

"I'm not sticking up right now, 'cause I'm about sick of this childish action," Wallace said. "The boy needs to grow up a little bit. I think he's just frustrated. I don't know. He's just got to keep his emotions in check. I'm tired of getting taken out by him. This is ridiculous."

Wallace said he felt Stewart had lost respect from many of his peers this season.

"He's a good kid, but hey, we respect everybody out in this field and I'm not respecting him at all right now," Wallace said. "Half the garage area's not respecting him. He's going to have to get out there and earn the respect his peers again, because he's screwed up a lot of cars because he's pouting."

Joe Gibbs Racing president J.D. Gibbs doesn't view it as much of an issue.

"He had a meeting with Darby the other day and that went pretty well, so as far as we're concerned, that was racing, there," said Gibbs of the run-in with Wallace. "I was watching the replay, and I don't think either of them had seen it yet.

"I'm sure (Wallace) is frustrated. His car is totaled now. I'm not sure how much Tony had to do with that. This is racing. More often than not, you'll walk away unhappy."

Wallace's team repaired the damage and returned him to action 43 laps down. He finished 57 laps down in 35th position.

"I had a good top-10 car. I don't know what (Stewart is) driving like that for. I'm tired of poor lil' ol' Tony right now. He needs to get his act together. He's a good driver and needs to act like one instead of driving like an idiot and taking a bunch of cars out."
