redd35 Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Jimmy Johnson causes the big one again at DEGA. He needs to watch his interveiw from Daytona about Harvick.He might rethink all the bs he said. Of course this one wasnt his fault again because he makes no mistakes.

KISS_Racing Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 " It's wasn't my fault, I was being bump drafted from behind!" Then the owner of his car says, " It's up to Us to control our cars!" Gee maybe the boss and the driver may need to get on the same sheet of music... I'll agree Jr. was close, but it wasn't till Jimmie made contact... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierDaddy Posted October 2, 2005 Report Share Posted October 2, 2005 Thats about all them damn hendrick drivers are good for is crying and complaining. They're never in the wrong, blame it on the other guy. Jimmie and Jeff are both [edited out by Nick Holt, 10/2/05] if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termite#99 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 It really sucks that a real racer like Mark Martin got taken out by a wannabe like Jimmie Johnson. I think he does stare at himself in the mirror, and try to figure out if he shaved his unibrow straight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REBELRACER Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 yeah ole candy a** johnson caused another one, and then in true hendrick fasion blamed another person for it.........i guess he never looked at the replay because he was into the back of sadler before jr ever got to his bumper.........mikey and riggs both had wild rides, it was good that they were alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARFAC Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Johnson is an idiot. That's 2 races at Talledega this year he's caused a wreck. Both of them were his fault. I'm glad he had problems today after that mess he created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truck99 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 One of the things I don't like about the new points system was shown in today's race. Gordon and Kyle Busch drop to the rear of the field just to "help" the 48 get back to the front despite the fact that the 48 was damaged beyond hope. Johnson caused his problems, so Gordon and Busch should have been free to get to the front, not nurse him along. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE JONES Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 When Harvick turned Jimmie in Speedweeks he was wanting RC to get rid of Kevin. He also said Harvick was stupid for bump drafting in the turn. Look who's stupid now. If I was an old clean drivin fart like Rusty Wallace I would be happy watchin dega on the yacht next year too.

txtom Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Enough of Jimmie and Harvick and those guys-- How about Dale Jarrett? Stayed out of all that young gun crap, and after winning, he looked like a kid in a candy store again. Congratulations to DJ and the gang at RYR. How about it, Colt? You guys done good.

thrss1 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 help us out Colt, do the burn outs change the tear down processany? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abrungot Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 my understanding was there were several teams running "Experimental" motors.. maybe his was just that and he wanted to get it back to the shop to take a run at The 500 in Feb?? Either way DJ drove a smart race!! and handled victory lane celebrations like a classy vet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, he was angled and ready to smoke em' when 45 came in sideways behind em'. I think he woulda' burned it up otherwise. On a side note, I think it was pretty funny of Petty to stick it out literally to the end. He went 499.5 miles, what's another 1/2 mile or so sideways?

KahneFan Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 If you look at the results, it has Petty as completing 189 laps... I'm not a Petty fan or Petty hater, but I would think they should credit him with 190. Is there a time limit on crossing the checker if you're on the track? Especially under yellow.

thrss1 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 probably has something to do with it being a green white checkered finish. they freeze the field when the caution comes out and since Petty was crashed and not moving when the field was froze he did not officially finish. just a guess.

MIKE JONES Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 I remember Kyle lining up on the bottom a lap down a few times and not sure if he ever got his lap back. My guess dawg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE JONES Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Also, I like that burnt rubber smell and all the smoke. It is kinda boring when they just go to victory lane with no hoo rah! If I wanted to watch a boring sport I would watch baseball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REBELRACER Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Jimmie Johnson acknowledged Tuesday he was at fault for an eight-car crash at Talladega Superspeedway that scuttled at least one other driver's championship hopes. Johnson had denied responsibility immediately after Sunday's accident, which cost both himself and Mark Martin valuable ground in the race for the Nextel Cup title. After watching tape of the accident that occurred 20 laps into the race, Johnson said he realized he ran into the back of leader Elliott Sadler to start the wreck. Johnson initially claimed he was pushed into Sadler by Dale Earnhardt Jr. "I feel bad, I don't know what else I can say,'' Johnson said. "I started a wreck and took out a lot of good cars. That was the last thing I intended to do and I feel horrible for it. So I'm taking the responsibility. "I needed to see the video to really understand what took place.'' i'll be damned, he does have some integrity.........mark it on the calander, the day a hendrick driver acknowledged he actually started an accident............has to be a first............lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
