Swamphunter Posted July 31, 2004 Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Re: Whats Your Reason? [ QUOTE ] So, there are my reasons for why I don't like those guys. Now, why I like Dale Jr. He's the son of the greatest driver of all time. He worked his way up through local racing, up to Busch and now Cup. He hasn't had everything givin to him like some think. He's a great driver and seems like a pretty cool dude, based on his DVD. [/ QUOTE ] Dale Sr was really the only driver I followed. When he died I guess I kinda just hooked onto Jr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrud Posted July 31, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2004 Re: Whats Your Reason? I like this post. It really shows how Junior fans truely outnumber Gordon fans. I've only counted 1 or 2 so far. Could have sworn there were more. I have to add Greg Biffle to my list too. He did drive a Chevy last year in Busch and probably will next year. He's a good guy and a heck of a driver, when not snake bitten. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrud Posted August 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Re: Whats Your Reason? Yep, but thats minor. He'll only be ahead by 5, if he can stay ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrud Posted August 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2004 Re: Whats Your Reason? I thought the Pocono race was pretty boring. I'd like to see them be 400 mile races instead. Pretty interesting thing I noticed. I have TrackPass turned on during the race, to listen to driver radios. You know when TNT said "we just found out that Junior will be making the driver change." Well, that was about 7 minutes after they talked about it on the radio. I'm surprised TNT wasn't a little quicker to report it. The convo went something like "I can finish the race, but if we are going to switch drivers, now is the time to do it. My left leg is numb and I can't feel the breaks." Plus, his car was junk. When they talk about drivers screaming on the radio about loose cars, they don't lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrud Posted August 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2004 Re: Whats Your Reason? I do like Ward, but he's not up there with my favorites. I was glad to see him on the outside pole at Indy. But, I knew he wasn't going to get a good finish when the green dropped. He and Mears were beating and banging all the way into turn 1.

Chrud Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? Bump for the new guys. I appreciate Dustin for actually replying as a Gordon fan. Earnhardt fans had no problem for their reasoning, where were all the 24 fans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VABuckSlayer Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? Drivers I dislike: Toney Stewert: He is a punk! I lost a lot of respect for him when he was arguing with R. Gordon in the garage after a race then shoved him in the back. Real hot head. Don't care for him at all but he is a good driver. Jeff Gordon: Pissed me off when he was raised by Ford then went with Hendrick in a Chevy. Bump and running Rusty at Bristol made my blood boil. I loved it when Rusty put him in the wall at Richmond several years ago. You should have heard what Rusty said on the radio before he did it. I just can't stand JG! Any driver with the last name Bodine: These guys should not be allowed on the track. They can't finish a race without taking a few cars out with them! Drivers I like: Rusty Wallace: Have liked him since the year before he won his championship in 89. Was super happy when he left Pontiac to drive Fords. That black Ford was sweet! Ryan Newman: He is awesome. Rusty's teammate. I like Roger Penske so I'll like whoever drives for him. Others I like: Martin Kenseth: High School buddy of mine is his gasman. Casey Kahne Dale jr.: My wife and kids like him and he seems pretty cool and down to earth for being so popular. My wife was a big Davey Allison fan. Man I miss the old days with Cale, Bobby, Pearson, and Neil and them. I love watching the classic races on ESPN Classic! Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest deldeer Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? im a nascar fan, a racing fan, i use to be a allen kulwicki fan, and after his death & petty retired i became a gordon fan,(heard a lot of grief over that.everyone in my family is a dale sr. fan ). so i can say i like most but there are some that get on my nerves. i will start with jr, snotty nose little punk.(just kidding)..but he only has fans because of his fathers death, can't tell you how many #8 flags popped up at the races after his death. he will NEVER be as good as his dad, or for that matter jeff gordon.i been to a lot of races, didn't see a lot of dale jr. fans before. & mark martin......now there is the biggest baby to ever get in a race car......when dale sr. was winning all the time it was because rcr was cheating......then when gordon came along & started winning all the time hendricks was cheating!!!!grow-up mark!!!!!! the bush brothers, i won't even wast my time with!!!!!!

Chrud Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? Hmmm...this post was for civilized and decent replies. Guess not anymore. I made this post last year so everyone could make their case why they do and don't like certain drivers, for good reasons. Not remarks to bash drivers.

Chrud Posted February 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? I believe the first go-round with this post, you (Dustin) and Oneida were the only Gordon fans that replied. And both of you did it just like us Junior fans did, you gave good, decent replies with facts and didn't bash the driver. Just the way things were meant to be done in this post.

IowaDeerHunter Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Re: Whats Your Reason? I think things should be interesting this year again, but most of it started when Gordon won at Talladega last year and Junior didnt.
