mikaloyd: vegaswench: Whoa, where'd Kurt come from??

A cross between Dumbo and a klingon?

I was going to go with Romulan.

What_Would_Jimi_Do: i didn't say she replaced him, i said she is only there due to his absence.

The guy from the Speed channel is there due to his absence, Danica was going to be there no matter what.

That is all

vegaswench: penguin31: OK, so Kurt Busch is racing for some little tertiary also-ran team. I clearly have missed something here - what the hell happened? I mean, I assume there was douchebaggery since a Busch brother was involved, but after a year and a half out of the loop I'm rather confused.

Someone released a video of him throwing a temper tantrum in an interview with Dr. Punch. He'd been throwing them for a while, but no one cared until it was against Punch. As a fan, I don't excuse it and didn't like it, but there it is.

His team was a also more than a little tired of him bad mouthing them anytime he had a bad race. He was never at fault in the least. A lot of the radio clips from his car were along the line of "I'm doing the best with the piece of sh*t you guys gave me."

Shadow Blasko: So... Who do I have to kill at Budweiser for that abortion of a commercial that is destroying Fire Woman?

I was going to say the ad agency DDB, but I see Budweiser dropped them for US advertising last year.

ClavellBCMI		2012-02-18 09:01:29 PM

Now then... since we will have 50 laps to go when the green drops again... with a 44-48-lap gas mileage estimate.... fuel-mileage race??? In the "BUD SHOOTOUT????????

Pretty much. And I wasn't even thinking about racing when I started it.

Just flipped over to the thread, what's the opinion of the racing we've seen thus far?

They'll never make a full fuel run without a caution. There'll be a wreck or a "debris" caution, guaranteed.

I wonder if anyone's going to Bobby Gerhart it and pit after a few laps for fuel. It seemed to work out for him pretty well in the FARKA race earlier.

It's been pretty old-skool, complete with Mikey Waltrip making it an official race.

It's halftime in Daytona and soon they'll hear the roar of our engines again.

Yep, they got at least one more crash in 'em.

Just like being a Habs fan in the land of the Bruins. It's been insufferable this year.

with the reduction in fuel capacity, whenever that was, 50 laps hasn't been a window for like 7-10 years

Based on an Alfa Romeo. So it will have the soul and the passion James May is always on about.

Honestly, I like humble Kurt. If his attitude and reality check is genuine, this could be a personality on par with us getting happy Mark Martin after years of dour depressed Mark Martin.

Nothing wrong with a Dodge. I just have to roll my eyes every time someone calls it an American car company. By that reasoning Honda and Toyota are American car companies. (Heck, the Camry is the only Cup car actually built here.)

My money is on Juablo getting impatient and giving someone a shove into their left rear quarter-panel to get them out of his way.

Danica got tall and ugly during the commercial break. On the plus side, she became a better talker.

It's not genuine. It's a P.R. move. Still love the guy, but I don't believe it for a minute.

I'm in the minority, but I gotta say, I love Mikey. I want him in the booth with his brother.
