I think Robby Gordon has gone completely nuts. He needs some anger management classes.

It was a pretty good race though.

My predictions.

Robby Gordon - Big fine, points penalty, and maybe some time in the time out chair.

Kasey Kahne - Big fine

Kurt Busch - Big fine.

Speed up, slow down, turn left.

Repeat endlessly.

Nope didn't watch it.

Real race cars go too fast to turn left. ;)

Any body can drive a car fast and straight for 1/4 mile.

And only few can handle the turn. Figure Eight the ultimate Race.

Those are cool. Especially using school buses or towing a boat trailer. Or blindfolding the driver and have the passenger give directions. Or putting the steering wheel on the passenger side, passenger steers while the driver works the go-pedal.
Yee-Haa! Gotta love redneck racing.

Our local short track is having the figure 8 School bus races and the trailer races again this Saturday.

I'll be there.

We have school bus races here in Vegas too. And gravel truck races.

To us it's just normal everyday traffic. A school bus doing a figure-eight in the intersection is cool! You should see the look on the little kids faces! :o

Nextel's gonna have to do something to stop all this fighting. It's bullsh*t that some act like big babies out there. If they can't stop the fighting, maybe they should put a boxing ring in the middle of the track and let them duke it out after the race.

I Agree 100%... I am a HUGE Nascar Fan.... I mean I have been following it for years and have Thousands of dollars in stuff...

But they did the Same Old Same Old.... Points & Cash...
Something has to be done, but the problem is they won't until someone gets Hurt or Killed, probally an innocent bystander....

I liked it better when Winston was in control... These Nextel guys are a bunch of Pu$$y's, scared they are going to lose ratings by benching a driver......

I know now why I do not watch as much as I used to... used to never miss a race, but now if I see it, cool.... If I miss it.. Oh Well.....

Have a Nice Day

Same for me, except I have seen every race this year, and will watch the remaining 9. Since it is the last time I'll see my driver race. But the drivers are starting to act just like every other type of professional athlete. The reason I like Nascar so much is that the driver's used to have some standards and knew how to conduct themselves like grown ups. Before you know it they'll be doing burn outs every time they pass a guy....... ::)

I know that ....I am going to miss alot of the Vet's.... Martin, Wallace, Labonte.... They were at least, I guess what you call Good ole Boys.... but they had compassion for the sport.. Seems like all the Young Guns want to do is go out and make Money and Break Records.....

I just hope that Martin, Wallace & Labonte install their idea's into their kid's racing carrer.... It won't be long and they will be in Cup Racing.... All of them are forming teams for their kids to Race for..... Might be some light at the end of the tunnel....

Just seems like the personalty.. maybe.. I don't know.. but something is missing from it.... just like you said.. "Its starting to get like every other sport"....

Looking for that Winston Guy..... maybe we can talk some sense into them..... Start a ProNASCAR Series....

The bottom line with what happened Sunday is that Robby Gordon has gone completely insane.

He risked his life when he ran out there in front of 40 cars doing 60 MPH to throw his helmet. For this alone, he should be parked. If he's stupid enough to do something like this, he obviousely doesn't care about his own life and will do something really stupid to retaliate.

If I was Tony Stewart, I wouldn't have swerved around the dumb bastard when he ran out there. If he's stupid enough to run out in front of me when I'm doing 60, he can pay the consequences.

It's not the first time he has been involved in stuff just like this yet he still tries to find a way to blame the other guy.

Kasey Kahne pulled a really stupid stunt too but you've got to excuse him temporarily since he is a rookie and let emotions get the best of him. I doubt he will do something like that again after being fined and docked points. He's mature enough to learn a lesson from it.

Robby Gordon on the other hand will continue to drive like a fool and do stupid stuff until he gets someone killed. Then, the wimps at NASCAR might decide to crack down a little on this kind of behaviour.

I don't understand how the biggest arse hole in motorsports history can be imortalized, and Robby Gordon is hated by so many. I like Robby's "FU!" attitude. He has been given no respect or leeway by any of his competitors since he came on the scene. He bumped Jeffy Poo to get his first oval track win and everybody cries foul. How many times has Jeffro bumped Rusty out of the groove at Bristol or Martinsville for a win. I guess it's only ok to act like an ass if you are winning.

Modified to add. I wish Robby would get a steady ride, that way I can buy some hats and t-shirts. ;;D

Financed with 25% down and 36 monthly payments is only $25,800 a month (plus a little interest). Say, $30,000 a month..........that ain't too bad.
Do they come in all black. That red is a little tacky.
