Can you imagine how many people went on iracing or nascar heat and pulled that same move last night to see if it worked in the game just like it did in real life. 

He could probably try that again 10 times and not get the same result

Agree 100 percent ..

from what is being told is that Myatt told Austin that ever since he went to RCR he has been a Cocky mf’er. 

ok gotta  it but did matt get the warnings . that is the question i want to know  i have been told i was a no good driver and few other words  those are words i shook off as  an opinion ,,but not backing off when warned  if i was or others i warned   just makes matters worst ..i never want to hit anyone but sometimes the point has to be made .  .now will nascar send austin  to anger managment  ..we will see along with matt ..

What happened Saturday? Do you live under a rock that was all over the place. Ty Gibbs took out Brandon Jones on the last lap to win the race. He flat drove through him.  But heres the catch Ty Gibbs is locked into the final 4 for Phoenix, Brandon Jones has to win the race to be locked into the final 4. So instead of helping his TEAMMATE and making it 2 JGR cars vs 2 JRM cars at Phoenix going for the championship you now have 3 JRM cars and 1 JGR car. Blatant dumb stupid move. 

But here's what gets me where is the outrage on this page for what Ty Gibbs did? 

Oh thats right we only want to focus on the wrong doings of Bubba and no one else.  If your mad at Bubba for letting Hamlin pass but not mad about this you need to check yourself in the mirror because you got problems.

I thought it was an awesome move. Better that it happened to Hamlin he passed. This may be something NASCAR is not going to allow in the future but definitely one of the best moves in a long time.

well he didnt hurt anyone  .but i will agree with u .some stunts need not be allowed

Yes, but Reb you and I both know the list is long in this area. And then you look at what happened between teammates on Saturday afternoon. 

what happend  saturday rails .

 WELL IT DRUMS UP FANS INTEREST  .gotta be a bad boy somewhere .  nacar has missed the rusty  dale   tony  darrel   rudd  .shows ... the fans have missed that . the outcry  over dale and terry  i was just  trying to rattle his cage  was big  .so  all this isnt much different  . big issue nascar can not  follow a fairness rule . every driver depending on his popular status is penalized differently on a common issue  . . ONE  driver can wreck someone  attack them  personaly and  get a one race  time out  no fines no points lost  ..another get fined loss of points  and so on for doing  less  .. ..nascar is in the middle of a crissis alright .it lost its true identity   with sponsors now controling the show .........ross is headed  the bush ways  lagano ways  BUT NONE OF THEM WILL EVER MATCH DALE SR ..... BOY WAS THAT CRAZY  what ross pulled  .. but it worked he is in the title fight  .....i do not think i watched 50 laps of that race .. the ending  was worth  it .the 11 team is out ..

Going  port lavaca  in the morning . sam and i  have a doner helping us with  the roof parts ...... sam can then fix that rusted area  . the only rust  we really found ,,   i am going to ask the person donating that part if i can announce his name  .i am sure alot of racers knows who he is  .. i will have a list of names when this is over with WHOM  played a  major part ..  NOT TO UNDER CUT   everyone else  i hope  .. rhe car will  be  at sames ford on the 19th  for sure  one way or another ..

HT, I am offshore working right now. But when I get home I will get with you and drop a small check in the mail.

 THANK U   .. 

 I SPOKE ABOUT HELPING A VET .. .. for the last few weeks the repairs have been in motion on his car 2000 camero .. ....   owen has helped  my wife and i alot letting us sell raffle tickets  at his tracks  .  PIT  BOSS TAILGATE  PELLET SMOKER  my wife and i DONATED  as first place . and second place is a 52 quart rtic ice chest and third place   and sames ford donated yeti ice chest .. .... we have not done bad at all but not as good as we need  . this weekend will be the last race for us to attend  ,  .. we have had some great  racers  step up with fans aswell  ..  but still just a alittle short  of the goal we needed  .... .. the one thing setting our tables near the stands is getting to alot of racers ..  makes it hard to get into the pits where we can visit ... so i asking any one who will attend this weekends races in corpus ..  look us up   get some tickets or donate  nothing is to small  ..or just say hello .. . there is to much to type about what is going on . .. .. .. SO ILL SAY THIS  .  for those who have been in combat  know what self isolation is..... 1000 yard stare ..  i. am a cilvilian i can only imagine  and that could be way off ,.  if i never burned my finger  i cant tell u it does not hurt .. i never question a vet i never judge a vet i was not there ..but if i can do one thing   that may help i will . and  this is why  i took this on . along with my wife and a few others .. its been alot of sleepless nights and stress  to make  this happen ..   ONE  catch is  the vet does not know  at what extent  this car is being repaired . that is where the cost comes in ..   ANOTHER  THING  he  does not know  on  NOVEMEBR THE 19TH  AT SAMES FORD   in corpus   starting at 1 pm  we will   be having our drawing  for the  prizes .. and he will then see why he is at  sames .. the car will be there for his to take home along with his two young children and wife ..  .we will have many veterans there  along with civilians  all are invited  ... i hope . i stood in front  of 45 vets  from all the wars   three ww2 vets  .very humbling  to speak to all of them , .   ill send nick some phottos  .. to put on here if he wlll   if u want my number  just ask here and ill get it to u . ...  .. I WANT HIM  TO REALIZE  he has brothers and sisters  outside that  care .. .. 

WELL TO ME  he is a  grown man . he is in a sport that so many better  drivers than he is by far   can  only dream about ..he is a lucky very lucky one .. . if he has anger issues he should have worked on that with somewho who could help ..  this just proves if this is the case for his attitude  he should not be in a 200 mph racecar and blow another gasket  like he did here .. the danger is bad enough  and we would be talking another story  had anyone been seriously hurt .. . on top of  the temper attacking after words .. i am not happy with nascars  slap on the hand penalty ..

Now that this has passed I wish Bubba would hire the services of someone like Tony Dungy or a great sports therapist to teach him how to handle adversity, loss, tragedy all the things he can't cope with. From what I gather the dude "don't need help" he says. I think many of us can relate to that thought.

 nah he just needs a good old texas style butt kicken .thatshould do it ..u dont attack a texan like that and  feel good about it after words ..

I absolutely agree Radical, that it wasn't enough punishment. But at least they did something. I haven't yet dared to look at any main stream media. I'm sure the Al Sharpton's of the world are having a field day. HiTech, the $$ & points aren't a deterrent, and never have been. Plus Bubba isn't in the playoffs, so taking points means even less. I don't typically watch many podcasts, but did see Corey LaJoie's Stacking Pennies yesterday. I was a bit surprised at how firm his stance was that Bubba deserved being parked. He was also asked if fines & points deducted had any deterrence for drivers. Guess what he said? Not One Bit! Hell I've known that for more than a decade. NASCAR knows it too. There are only 2 reasons that they assess fines; 1) It gives the appearance that they are trying to convince the public that they are doing something. 2) Unless they have changed the destination of where that fine money goes, it goes to their children's charity. That way at the end of the year at tax time, NASCAR gets to take a big deduction for the donation, but most of the money comes from the fines assessed to drivers & teams. That's a publicity win & a tax win for NASCAR.

My last 5 years in my insurance agency in Tucson, I never grossed less than $140K per year. I still have all my 1099s, and I sold it in Dec 2004. But because of all the standard deductions that were available (office rent, salaries of employees, unemployment payments to the state etc, plus my racing operation, and sponsorship of another car and track ads, I paid nothing in federal taxes & very little state taxes. When I decided to sell my agency, I went out and bought my wife a new SUV through the business. That made it an equipment purchase for the business. In 2004 the federal tax code allowed you to depreciate that purchase over a 5 year period. I paid cash for it, and took the entire depreciation (100% of the cost of the SUV) in the first year (my last year in agency). I then retitled the car in her name as a private citizen. If I had been a private citizen doing that, the IRS would have owed me a bunch of money. Instead I just didn't owe them any. Is that fair? By law yes. Do I think it's right? No I don't. That's why I think the IRS should be abolished. There is a much better way, that would be fair to all. As long as tax laws are written in Congress, the biggest tax cheats in this country, it isn't going to change. I said all that to say this. Now you know why NASCAR fines drivers & teams. They make money doing it.

ron  i am not all that  mad at no fines really ..i think he. needs parked for the rest of the season .. points so what . and sent to anger  management .if kyle and others had to go    through  i wont say that word again that so many  including a  certain ethnic  does daily  .he should have to go through anger management before he gets back into a car .. one race ..lol   /come on .. and i would say that for any driver who pulled this stunt .. if i was bell i would not be such a nice guy ...... .i paybacked a racer at cc .. put the  hurt on his car   even told him why i did it . he knew why // after words what he did to me and the payback i did to him .was stupid we both could have been hurt  a lot more than we did ..  plus seeing we were pole sitters and i took him out before the flagstand  i could have hurt others ... i never ever took someone else out  like that again  . we were not doing 180 mph  .about 50  .. walllce knew he was going to turn that car into the wall  ..that was intent with out a thought of how much kyle or another driver would be injured  .plus knowing his team mate had to retire and bowman is out  tells me he is selfish to a point he cares not about others .

ron one race no loss of points and no fine .. proves my thought  bubba is nascars new bitch ...

Bubba Wallace has testy response to question about retaliating against Kyle Larson (msn.com)    He didn't mean to.

 

well bubba i didnt mean to wont work .seeing you did not mean to attack  larson not once but more than once .. bubba got his head big when  the noose thing came about ..he was in the spotlight . i like  him and pulled for him till then ..ever sense he htinks he is intitled . seems i heard that before ...bubba was lucky larson did  knock  some sense  between  bubbas eyes  .. that helmet  could put a hurt on u .. ..MAYBE ITS JUST ME BUT  argue with me all u want . push me  .. no ..

I am not racist ..but i am wondering  if nascar is going to just give Wallace a slap on the wrist or teach him a lesson .. 

i am going to try that before i change the injector on a 98  tahoe .. i never change just one injector i change the whole spider ... tahoe has been sitting up sense 2019 with ever being started .i took me three days of running it for hours with marvel to get all 8 cylinders on the same page .motor runs so smooth u dont even notice it standing run next to it ..have had 4 poeple finding it  was running all the time we stood right next to it ..but .it seems i have one injector leaking into a cylinder after driving it .i have to  build the fuel pressure back up ..for it to start then i drove it hard and found its lean .. so ill pressure test the system monday .. i have a feeling it is number 8 .. ...if i can get that stuff to clean it better i may just go ahead and change the pump ..this is a truck my brother  went in with me to repair for another brother who  needs something that runs better than what he has ,he is crippled enough  where he cant afford anything much and   can not work .. so as i get some money i change something  i can upgrade so thanks for the tip and even old dogs learn new tricks ..  ..
