What's with Vickers???

It is hard to say that after what Junior did.

Two different wrecks. Junior hit Waltrip while trying to pass. He still caused the wreck, but it wasn't intentional. Vickers ran through Elliott, just like he did Bliss. I don't think Vickers planned on taking out that many cars though. Just think about it, he knew how to do it after last week. He had the best car. He needed a caution and he'd be caught right back up. crazy.gif

Sure the wrecks were similar. I don't know for sure if Junior hit Waltrip or if it was an "air off the spoiler" deal. You sure couldn't hear bumpers hitting on the replays. But Vickers tried going through Elliott. Heck, he can join JJ on my "list". grin.gif

Re: What\'s with Vickers???

When I seen the replay it didn't look like junior actually hit waltrip to me, but I am not sure. The only other wreck I seen was Vickers, and then they replayed juniors. They were both different. Junior was trying to pass, but Vickers just got into the back of Elliott. I guess for me it would be hard to say park Vickers (which maybe they should) for a race or two, after watching Junior wreck his teammate. But then you really look at it and realize it wasn't intentional, and not really agressive driving, just trying to pass. If he was aggressive he would've hit him out of the way. So yeah park Vickers. LOL

how did i know that JR's would be...."different".....geez fellas he flat out ran over mikey!!!!.....he is a,...how did he say it a couple weeks ago....'idiot'!!!!... i also like how it's always the crew chief's fault with him. i need to change, or i need a new one , i think he needs to grow up, & stop trying to act like he knows it all.....

First off, Junior wasn't the one that wanted the crew cheif change. That was Richie Gillmore's idea.

I still don't think Junior hit Waltrip. You never heard a "clunk" on the replays. I think he was just so close when he tried the crossover that Waltrip just got real loose and spun.

Notice the 21 car difference in a pass attempt gone bad and an idiot block? confused.gif

Do you have TrackPass or something else with online replays? confused.gif I had TrackPass, but it wasn't worth the money after a while.

I'll watch my tape over a bit. I tape them all. grin.gif As much as this particular tape as been recorded over, it should blow up sooner or later.

I don't know deldeer.... It flat out says in the article that the decision was Gilmores. That link kinda proves Chrud right

Re: What\'s with Vickers???

wrong,..... how about....("iv'e) driven cup cars for a few years now, and HE'S been a crew chief for a year". (I) felt like we needed to make a change....or how about when he said "what (I) would like to do is find someone (I) can work with really well" sounds like a whole lot of me's & I'S in there to me.sounds to me that JR had the idea & he got richie to go along with it......CHRUD IS WRONG....YET AGAIN.....it's ok.....

Re: What\'s with Vickers???

This is quoted from your link deldeer....

" GILMORE: It was my decision. I've been sitting on the pit box of the #8 team the last four years and just listening and watching, I felt like it wasn't there and I had to make a decision. Junior always has input in that and Theresa (Earnhardt) has a big decision making part in that. So, it was kind of a group decision. But, at the end of the day, it was mine."

Can't argue with that. That is right from the horses mouth.

Re: What\'s with Vickers???

obviously you did'nt read down any farther, or you would see JR pretty much saying what he wanted.....not gilmore...& speaking of the horses mouth, JR said it right on tv. he needed a change & he ran it by gilmore,WHO MADE THE FINALE DECISION....i heard him say it...gilmore will say or do what ever master jr says.......& you heard it here first, this guy WILL NOT last either....

What guy will not last? Steve Hmeil? He has more experience than any one in the DEI organization. Or, are you talking about Eldridge? Thats not a done deal yet. If I were him I would stay with Casey Mears. He has too much to lose by taking the #8 crew chief job. Just my opinion
