  Kyle Busch                                                 GO CARL ! 

[Ponch ®]

Kyle Busch               

I was glad to see him have some troubles too.

It's too early to count anyone out, but I think that at this point it's Johnson's to lose. Him and Knaus have the Chase figured out and pwned.

So what's the deal with GEM buying Bill Davis and it's "Toyota association"? Does that mean they're switching to Toyota? I think it means that GEM is buying out Davis' ties to Toyota and turning the 22 into a Dodge, but the way it's worded at Jayski is very confusing (no surprise there).

That would be interesting, considering its history!!!!

Looks like the best driver in Nascar is starting to self destruct some over the past few weeks!

+1

still 9 to go but i won't be hurt if KB doesn't do a thing the rest of the year.

Although I do maintain he can drive, but I put him in "the Bif" category, he can drive the wheels off the car.... not always a good thing IMO.

I thought Tony Stewart did an awesome job of salvaging a crappy day. I do wonder if his team told him he threw another one away and thanks alot. I like Tony, but sometimes he lets his Passion take control of his mouth. He was quite the cheerleader this weekend.

I think Kenseth is out of it for sure now.

As far as KB is concerned, I am not crying at all. Hope he has a few more races like this to take him totally out of the hunt.

Edwards did pretty good for a crappy car at practice, and the Biff sure looked strong.

210 points out...ouch. Not impossible, but not likely either. I know Johnson has overcome 200+ deficits before, but Busch would need Edwards, Biffle and Johnson to ALL have at least 2 bad weeks to have a chance of catching them. That just ain't gonna happen.  I'm still picking Johnson.

[General_01]

I am pulling for Stewart, but I am thinking Edwards will win it this year.

[pettyfan43]

I'd like to see Biffle get it done, he and Carl are my favorite Roush drivers and I like Biffle, He is in my opinion the best all out DRIVER at Roush.


Oh yeah, about Kyle Busch....

[Chargen69]

his true character comes out when he has trouble and runs away as fast as he can so he doesn't have to talk to the media and expose himself.  How many times last year did jr. have motor trouble and talk to whichever reporter got to him first, and say things like, "well going to unleaded has effected the motor dept, but they'll figure it out and we'll be better."

what your heard Kyle say was crap like, "well, it just doesnt matter, I wrecked in new hamp and blew up here at dover a few years ago and where did I end up, 12th, so it doesnt matter."

if jimmy had felt that way in 06 he would have not been 1st.

If you are a KB fan, I'd have to ask why, he doesnt even pull for himself.  One of those owners said it best, "anybody can win, but you have to learn how to lose."

Stewart had a very bad day and took himself out of contention. I find it very funny that Gibbs kicked but all year until the Chase. Now they just fell off the map. Guess I will have to wait until next year when Tony is in a Chevy to compete for a Championship.

And yes, Kyle Bush....

I loved the move Carl tried at the end. He was trying hard. He should have lifted a little sooner and he might have made it work. I loved how he said he has done that in the video game and made it work, so he thought he would try it in real life. That would have been the move of the year if it would have worked. Can't say the guy doesn't want to win.

Go Carl.

[The70RT]

Kyle Busch                                                 GO CARL ! 

yep

[mikepmcs]

gotta like the move, didn't work, but he is there to win.

[pettyfan43]

I don't think I have EVER seen a team IMPLODe to the extent of Gibbs since the start of the chase! The 18 car seemed to be the invincible team until a couple weeks ago, then they just went into the dumper! WEIRD!!! But good!

[400/6/PAC]

Good race.
I like Carl, Never here too much bad talk from Him and is a clean driver.

[pettyfan43]

Carl has gone from a loose cannon to a very solid driver, and has matured a TON over the past couple years.  The guy IS the real deal.

[moparstuart]

carl is cinda of a local guy here in the aera , have heard alot of bad press about him not being fan friendly in person , or promising to call local radio and tv shows and not showing up . Carl has a big head they say !    While clint boyer is also consider a local home track kansas speedway guy and he really goes out of his way to be extremely fan friendly and show up for tons of local events . He is a big backer of the new petty victory junction camp here by the kansas track .  Just the the local word is on these two !

Thats kinda suprizes Me.
We don't get much local news about the drivers, But I thought Carl would be one of the more Friendly One's
I remember when He was begging for a chance to drive and tryiny to get a sponser.
How quickly We forget where We came from.
Mabey He's just shy.
