Dang. How in the world did the best NASCAR driver in the world drop to 10th place? Someone must have put him in the wall.

[TheOldProgrammer]

Don't think it has anything to do with being put in the wall... I think he's just showing us how 'skilled' a driver he his...

On the flip side; Hamlin is done... Reports are that he's given up on this year and is looking forward to next year... I guess the sport psychologist isn't doing him much good...

Another bad race for (Hello) Newman and he'll be joining Hamlin on the outside looking in...

As for your favorite driver Owl, I figure he'll join Hamlin after this weekend at Kansas... But everybody will ignore his incompetence and make a big production how he made the chase this year...after this Sunday, he'll be 123 races without a win.

I was talking about the driving skill wall. He has hit that wall on numerous occasions. He said his car wasn't fast enough which tells me he isn't giving the right information to his team, which is something the elite driver's do very well to allow changes in the car to make them faster. But he is still the "greatest diver ever in NASCAR!" Just ask his fans.

[TheOldProgrammer]

Thanks for the clarification on which wall he hit...

We don't have to ask his fans... We can ask you...

[Night Owl]

Yea, but his fans won't like my answer.:)

I thought I heard that Junior's car had a broken FRONT sway bar last week, and he lost at least one lap getting it welded back on during the race.
When I was watching, seems like he spent much of his time trying to stay ahead of Stewart, who said his car was "pogo-ing" through the corners.
Gotta love that one-mile concrete monster...
