NASCAR needs to say no to Mexico City until Safer Barriers are put in
First, congrats to Kyle Busch on a hard-charged win.
Now, on to the safer barrier thing...oops, I forgot there are no safer barriers in Mexico City. Why is this? All the other tracks that NASCAR races at had to put them in, some even coming under fire for not having them on the inside walls, but at least they have safer barriers on the outside walls.
Two red flags because of wrecks and to fix the walls, the concrete walls, with no safety features, at that. Luckily this was a road course and the speeds weren't higher.
I think NASCAR needs to say, "You want us to race there, put in the safer barriers," if they choose not to, for whatever reason, say "adios" to the Mexico City race.
Your thoughts?

The word is is that Tony is seriously considering purchasing an ownership interest in CNC Haas (almost a Hendrick satelite) and will be given a very lucrative contract to replace Casey Mears at HMS who'll then probably be given the chance to drive at CNC Haas or else.
If all this is true, and my sources are typically unimpeachable and without reproach, Tony probably will not initially drive for Haas - TS Sports because he wants to remain competitive from the get go and HMS has the iron that will keep him winning races while he's overseeing the development of his racing team Haas - TS Sports.
K2, can you and your Pit Crew Water Fountain Council confirm this bit of news?
Posted by: Jon2 | Apr 25, 2008 8:58:37 AM
I think Smoke will be at RCR or HMS.
Never say never (i.e. Smoke will never be at HMS) and never say guarantee (i.e. guarantee Smoke will retire at JGR). Because nobody knows for sure.

where yah been and whats your take on tony and where is going exile??
i'd been waiting for the cable tech to get here to fix my f'ed up cox cable tv picture.
for 3 months i've called and explained they didn't take out the filter the last time i changed my service.
they of course say i'm too dumb to know jackshit about filters.
so, this nice hispanic dude shows up, checks it out and says... hey, they didn't take the filter out.
tony...
a writer said, before his last contract negotation tony shopped, got a fat offer from chip, and resigned for much more with jgr.
i don't think he wants to stay with joe the christian. tony ownes other teams and wants a nascar team.
maybe.
anyway i think the 18 gets the good shit. tony and hamlin get what's left over.
he probably didn't want a john 3:16 sticker on his car and is outta there.
but then, like cable filters, i might not know jackshit about tony's future plans either.
cox cable sucks.

you know the numbers, office depot is what 15 mill for the 99in 07, now rfr wants what 24 million?? So ups might step up to the 99
or
Ups could look good at the 31 but I think ups is more in fav of rfr rather than rcr
jb is tops siliar age to dj not a rock and roll guy but that might be a diversion from ups??
Wow 24 million for the 31 sure would feed their goats iam sure??

chev says hey ts we'll step with $$$ for where u anyywhere u go, come back to chev and whats a year to build up, we'll figure this out and we'll build u a team and give u control, just slug it out for a year like trd did with mwr
its about change and they can build their own program not like jr did and step into a ride/program
TS wants out, he wants control and his own team

I do respect his driving skills and his charity work. But, it will be a tough job, turning those two field-filler teams around.
i agree but with 3-4 key guys and smoke and an engine program he will be right there........its the cot/iroc car now,
put ts in a dodge and he's be top 10 right now........the shit teams are just that no$$$ mostly TS brings lots of cash 20 mil from ups alone iam sure and another 10-20 in associates, then he drags zippy and the key crew guys and Mark C over with him and a 4 gig usb key with the cot sets up lol and their OFF
people people people make a great TS wont have any problem attracting good cup people........TS is a likeable guy PERIOD and a winner!! on and off the track and he is from a sane mid west family, just by helping out ole errol at eldora to me makes the guy a stand up guy
ups wants a rock roll star they have one except for no tattos,,,,,,,ups with that suckhole phoney CE to me is a brutal marriage........the 17 is the pain in the ass at rfr, iam starting to think the guy cant get along with anyone BUT still CE suxs
Posted by: aggie | Apr 24, 2008 7:59:17 PM
DJ,
The Talladega race, last year, was the first race there, in the COT. It was also in the chase. So, the chase drivers were driving very carefully. The rest of the field was still unsure of how the new-style cars would handle, when racing two and three-wide. They raced the COT, at Daytona, so those doubts should be gone and we should have a great race.
Robby's doing double duty, this week, with the make-up of the Dakar Rally(?) Congrats, on the MVP.
As for Tony, I think he does want more say in what happens on his team. Besides, with 50% ownership, he can say and do anything he wants and not have to worry about "the Coach" coming down on him, or sending him to "anger management". Tony's a great driver, but something about his personality doesn't click, with me. I do respect his driving skills and his charity work. But, it will be a tough job, turning those two field-filler teams around.

Yes, the UFC. Sweating, crazed men beating the hell out of each other. He watched some fight on PPV recently, not sure who it was. I like Ortiz and Lidell. Wasn't them he was watching though.
Actually he's been watching NASCAR lately, but I make him nervous with my vocalization during the race.
He likes the # 29. (He's about as skinny as Harvick with a head just as big.) Stepdaughter likes the "m and m car"- regardless of who drives it- and Kenseth.

Gretch,I got turned on to Southpaw lite while living in South Charlotte.I always like to try a new one,especially 5.0 content.Went to a beer cave down 521 and it was 9.99 a case.There is your winner!!Actually isn't bad.Anywho,After we won that tourney late Sunday in Va,we stopped at a store and it 4.29 a 12.Cold,got me where I needed to be for the 4 hr ride...as if I hadn't had 2 to 10 all day.One of my buds had bought 2 cases of Keystone Lite and I got turned on to that as well.No Boolites for me.Beer,Softball,beer,racing,ACDC, and boobs!The good life.........and beer.
I'm a RG fan whether he is doing well or racing the leaders 2 laps down.I either like TS alot or he gets under my skin.Same with Kyle and KH.I guess they kinda remind me of myself(minus the driving skill and a few more $$)with their "attitudes".You know, don't take any crap deal.These cats can drive and don't hold anything back on the track or off......beer.
Posted by: DJ | Apr 24, 2008 4:17:40 PM
A Pinto, heck, Tony could drive a lawnmower around the track and find a way to beat half of today's Cup field.
Posted by: Kari | Apr 24, 2008 3:52:25 PM
I've always felt that Tony was a major factor to win in any CUP race he's entered over the years.
Damnit. Twice in two days I agree with you.
He is one of those drivers who I posted about last Summer that could prolly take a Pinto and pull a top 20 finish with it. Just a goddamn good wheelman.
Posted by: gretchen | Apr 24, 2008 3:43:56 PM
I knew you'd enjoy that one.
Tony's probably at the stage in life where he's accomplished much and wants to get into the CUP owner thing. He'll probably still drive if he does become an owner, sort of like #3 and Mikey.
A guy with this great of talent would be a major loss to the sport if he hung it up as a driver during his prime. I've always felt that Tony was a major factor to win in any CUP race he's entered over the years.

But at any rate. Myself and a few co-workers got off at 3am and converged on my house to drink S'Paw, throw darts. and play......showing my age......Playstation ONE!!! LOL....good times....
Posted by: gretchen | Apr 24, 2008 2:56:59 PM
Aggie - Maybe I'm wrong but I don't think Tony cares about being "powerful". The ownership deal might mean he's looking to the future since I don't think he wants to be a driver for very many more years.
Some have said that Tony doesn't like having 2 young, successful teammates. But I think he has enough self confidence not to care about that kind of thing. He's already proven he's ONE of the most talented drivers ever.
J2 - I didn't say anything about the reason Robbie was "promoted or demoted". I have no idea why it happened. Thanks for making this statement:
"I thought so all along and I'm usually right".
I actually laughed out loud on that one.

iam still duh onhow teh french make such a good vodka??
k2
where tehre is smoke there is fire and NO iam not ragging on you but the infamous gasman's rummour is coming true with TS just the wrong team ........20 and the ups deal and where ever makes sense.......smoke wants what his buddys khi and jr and jg have a foundation to be team owners one day and a powerful one and at jgr it aint gonna happen,,,,,,,so he cuts himself a deal at hass and get some engines and brings in ashit load of cash
yeah 10 years at the depot and hey maybe its time to move??? that deal was done when bob d was there and bob d gone bub bye so who knows with the depot
the buzzzzz and comercials ups could do up with ts are an addmans dream
should be interesting next few weeks..........makes sense for ts to be with chev in the big picture for chev and TS.....ts usually wakles up right about now and an announcement and some wins and its like a lil aded bonus for ups for 09 with the buzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
trucks are the real race most weekends
Posted by: aggie | Apr 24, 2008 2:28:19 PM
So Diane are you getting the impression that Robbie's "promotion" to being Director of Sitting Behind A Desk was for other than the family reasons we discussed a while ago.
Here's the bottom line. Robbie wanted to remain CC for Kenseth and the "I miss my family" line was nothing but a smokescreen that was offered to shade the real reason why Robbie was "promoted," and that is: Jack and Fenway gave him a choice either to get behind a desk or hit the road.
In an ESPN article (Terry Blount 4/3/2008) on the, Robbie is no longer the CC for Matt deal, matter the Terry stated it was a very reluctant Robbie to move to the director's chair at Roush-Fenway. I thought so all along and I'm usually right.
Anytime I hear the "personal reasons" or the "family reasons" line, I will win the bet almost ever time that the target is getting shoved out or into a lesser position.
It was an either/or choice with little wiggle room offered to Robbie. Promoted, don't think so, in light of the high profile job he had as being one of the better driver's CC, he got demoted.
GA,

Hola Gang...Gretch,you are a marketing dream with all your "equipment" for Dega.I'm with you on the GG.Negatory on the CL.My adult bevrage of choice this week is Southpaw Lite!I want to be pumped but wasn't the COT used in the last Dega that was a snoozer?Hope this race is not,as it has always been my favorite track(beside the ROCK of course!).
I see FS #1 is battling someone that is actually in the loop.TS and HMS?Surely not.Jr was bad enough.I'm sure Nascar would love to see him move over to Haas to help give them some much needed driver/CC/PR ect...to get them more on the map and draw potential sponsors.
Gang,I'm still sore from 8 softball games this past weekend.My old ass got the MVP out of 32 teams!Bragging?Damn right.Showed the younger punks what it takes to shut the pie hole and that is hitting missles thru them!!
Well I'm getting stoked as well for the weekend.No ball,decent weather and Dega.K2 give me a head's up when you find out about the Rock.Be safe ya'll.........
Posted by: DJ | Apr 24, 2008 2:25:35 PM
Yes F5 it is a Corolla. I drove a damned KIA for about 1 week. LOL. Drove it from Tallahassee to Jacksonville and back. Used 1/4 tank of gas. Damn Koreans.....
Now, I did crank the G'Am up yesterday, was quickly engulfed in a cloud of smoke from the tailpipes and the hood. BUT.......it runs a little bit, and I pulled it into the garage, so we wouldn't look like WHITE TRASH!!! with my brokedown car. It sounds as if a pipe is just rattling around under the hood, knocking around, bouncing off something. Hell, I don't know.
But....fear not Proud Americans. My Cousin owns a "salvage yard". I assume a salvage yard is a junk yard. He has found a wrecked Grand Am, same year model, 2001. Car was wrecked from the rear. Engine has 19,000 miles on it. It is en route as I type.
So, I will be wheeling around soon in my AMERICAN made car. But alas I will drive TC to work still. 70 mile round trip. I can't afford to drive the Grand Am at 22-25 mpg, when TC gets 35- 38 and my gas is $3.59 pg.
Now, back to NASCAR.
On TS: I forsee sometime in the future him owning a team, but maybe driving for someone else. Sort of like Dale E did.
On Peyton Sellars: WTF was that NASCAR? A shock absorber? Get real. Making a fucking example out of a Eastseries driver? WTF? Get some cajones Bri. Let's talk about missing Oil Pan lids, altered spoilers, Fuel additives, etc. Jesus christ.
On Dega: MY FAVORITE RACE OF THE YEAR!!!!!!
I am STOKED people!! I mean STOKED. Got Junior PJ pants, new hat- SANS the HMS logo, NEW Shirt, A case of RED amp, a bottle of Grey Goose, a case of Coors- the official beer of NASCAR, and some Bobby Flay recipes for the grill!!!! Whooooo Hooooo. I am READY!!!!!!!!!!!! AN
Truck Series.....THANK GOD THEY'RE RACING THIS WEEKEND!! I was having withdrawals. I am SOOO hooked on the trucks!!
Aarons 312. ALWAYS exciting, because the CUP regulars can drive that fast- MOST of them LOL- but the Buschies have troubles, and wrecks ensue.....
On the NOTION that TS would go to HMS. God, please don't let that happen. Please God don't.
Posted by: gretchen | Apr 24, 2008 2:04:44 PM
I think Kyle Busch's performance in the 18 this year shows the impact that driver talent can have on a team. The 18 was mediocre for a few years there and now leads laps every race by virtue of the guy behind the wheel. Therefore, I think Tony could definitely go to a team like Haas CNC and win races. I gotta believe Chevrolet would THROW money at Haas CNC with Tony over there to help ensure their success. As for another driver to be Tony's partner in crime over there--I like Scott Riggs but I think he might belong in Busch and/or Trucks--I would LOVE to see the Bud Boy as Tony's teammate.
Posted by: Kari | Apr 24, 2008 1:45:50 PM
k2
I know more about what goes in in NASCAR when I am freaking asleep than you do prancing around in your HMS underoos and pom poms..
wow that was a gretchen type post lol
mt jr iam kida of wondering about and yeah RR is a top crew chief and can work anywhere
F5
lol u like bottom feeders lol but whith chev $$$ and ups and a few other its one rich fat cash bottom feeder LOL
and engine wise well you can always get some from rcr which dont blow up anymorenow that jr is not blowing them up
Posted by: aggie | Apr 24, 2008 1:21:10 PM
K2 - Thanks for the info.
F5 - I agree that Tony is better off with JGR than a bad team. However with the right employees and enough money I think a bad team can become a good team. But how long will that take? Tony is almost 37 years old and I don't think he would be happy running in the rear or mid-pack for even one year.
The bad thing about Haas CNC is they get their tech support and engines from the "dark side".
K2 & F5 - The interviews I've seen with Robbie R. show that he's not at all happy. And in Jack's interviews you can tell he doesn't care whether Robbie is happy or not. He's said "in so many words" for Robbie TO DEAL WITH IT.
Posted by: Diane | Apr 24, 2008 1:14:48 PM
J2 Your comments to K2 are uncalled on this subject. I remember the race you are talking about when Shrub had the long pit. I also remember him stating on the radio he would wreck the car. It was long after that race Mears was told to let Shrub by because he was in the chase and needed the points. That was played on the internet for all to hear. Mears was clearly disappointed that the had to do this but he followed orders given by Hendrick. What makes you think he would not manipulate a pit stop if he would manipulate the ending order of a race?
Posted by: Graceann | Apr 24, 2008 1:06:11 PM
I agree K2 since Rob's dad passed he hasn't been the same
Posted by: Fan#5 | Apr 24, 2008 1:02:52 PM
Diane,
Zippy's contract is up in 09 as well with JGR.
I think Jack Roush will technically keep all the cars, but shift one to Yates to "fit the mold "NASCAR" wants done.
First thing that should be done is get someone in the 26.All I can say is RFR best pray they keep Robbie R happy...or he will walk
Posted by: Kurt2 | Apr 24, 2008 12:47:28 PM
Does anyone know when Zippy's contract ends?
Haas CNC has lots of money. With Stewart as a partner they probably could attract another top-notch driver.
Joey Logano is waiting in the wings for a ride at JGR. Maybe they won't mind losing Tony after the 2009 season.
The next few months are going to be very interesting. So many driver and sponsor contracts are ending, Roush must move one of it's teams.
Posted by: Diane | Apr 24, 2008 11:48:27 AM
But K2 I'd rather be in a #1 Toyota team than 50% equity in a bottom feeder Chevy team
Posted by: Fan#5 | Apr 24, 2008 11:12:37 AM
J2, ahh we digress once again FS...
The Rick order, yeah okay. I had the helicopters buzzing that day..
I know more about what goes in in NASCAR when I am freaking asleep than you do prancing around in your HMS underoos and pom poms..
The whole game changed years ago when Kurt was bought out of his final year of his contract.Plus should Smoke getout early Chevy foots that bill
J2 or FS whichever you like please continue the barb with me:)
Posted by: Kurt2 | Apr 24, 2008 10:59:22 AM
Don't depend on K2 for breaking news in NASCAR. He hangs out at the wrong water fountain. He never heard about the TS possible gig which is BIG news, had him staying at JGR forever. K2's still trying to rebuild his credibility after spreading misinformation about the Rick Order. He took a major hit on his cred with that big whopper of a story.
Don't say never there K2 about TS, remember what occurred with Junior. The JN never thought he'd go with the Dark Side. Junior chose wisely.
Posted by: Jon2 | Apr 24, 2008 10:44:48 AM
few thing about TS knows, he knows his abilities, he knows what he wants to do and i think he knows and has seen whats it like for guys like mwr so with that said
for TS to start at a bottom feeder team could be a lot easier with a real well funded team and engines ect, who knows who would go with him??for jgr
one more thing TS will never own JGR with jd there so iam sure he is looking at the future and saying ive got to make my deals
there is more to him helping out chrissey wallace than just their friendship
people can think what they want about ts but deep down inside the guy is and PUTS back into the sport
there is no right or wrong for how guys make $$ off the track, but i have more respect for ts buying eldora than jr for opening a bar.
k2 @ the water fountain lol two funny
Posted by: aggie | Apr 24, 2008 10:40:15 AM
Smoke would basically have control of the team and would have his pick of another driver in the other car. SOOOOO is sounds like there could be more to the rumor, who else has a contract ending that Smoke is pretty friendly with and could get along with as a team?
Posted by: Graceann | Apr 24, 2008 10:32:00 AM
Kurt 2
Any other chevy teams you see Stewart going too if he does indeed leave Gibbs? Are u hearing of any other big driver moves?
Posted by: staci | Apr 24, 2008 10:25:40 AM
FS,
My fountain is just fine there. But issue being I dont sleep with Smoke, dont want to nor will.Sothe whole Haas CNC thing hit everyone with intially a WTF..
Least I can read the fact he isnt going to HMS. Never will. Not sure where your chai and your expresso mixed to come up with that.
F5, think about it, Haas has the $$$ with Chevy behiond the scenes pulling the rope on Smoke.
Posted by: Kurt2 | Apr 24, 2008 10:18:59 AM
K2,
Wasn't it you just a short while back who told us in your all knowing way that Tony was gonna retire at JGR?
