2011 NASCAR Season: Anyone But The 48

Yeah
Nice save when he lost it himself and it seems 9 times out of 10 he ends up the same way, wiping out others while he crashes once again

Robby had nowhere to go on that deal.... The 14 came down and took the bottom lane away... When you are closing at 15-20 MPH, that didn't leave a whole lot of reaction time... Also, since the 2 car draft is in place, he can't hit the brakes either... Where was Robby supposed to go?

Edit: In fact, the 22 did the exact same thing 5 laps earlier, which resulted in the restart in question... But since Robby is evil, we'll just call him out on it...

Home is where he is supposed to go so he stops wrecking cars. Who is 22?

Way to go Wood Brothers! Great to see oldest Ford team get the win.

Great answer to the question!

So you are driving the 7 and closing fast in that exact situation... Where are you putting your car to avoid a wreck?

Nice to see Jack Roush get to victory lane again.


Or did the Wood/Yates/(Evernham/Gillette/Richard Petty) contingent quit getting their blue oval parts from him?

I am a very casual fan, I'm happy a Ford won the race, I don't care who built the car or supplied parts. Screw the bailout car companies.

Re: 2011 NASCAR Season: Anyone But The 48

You must really not care, because the only thing on it from Ford is the sticker that says it.

They probably don't even supply those!

Toyota cars are as American or more American than Fords these days. Sad but true.

...

Umm, I was taking a swipe at Jack Roush* and how anything Ford was (for the last, what, decade and a half?) filtered through Jack first, THEN to other teams. Well until Jarrett and Labonte left, Yates and Roush both had input on what they wanted Ford to do (hence the Yates/Roush engine package in 200-ish), and any "Ford" sponsored driver had to get their "factory support" from Roush.

That, and for a couple years, Roush was actually building chassis for the Wood Brothers out of his shops. At one point the 21 car was listed on Roush Racing's website (if I recall).


*yes, I know that it's sort of wrong to take jabs at the owner for my favorite NASCAR driver.

I was responding to Timothy A, but really I shouldn't have interpreted what he said that way. He was just annoyed at the bail-out companies.

Wasn't Ford bailed out too? Just by another country?

Shhhh, no one is supposed to know about that!

That's right, you were the one that told me about that.

Er, I mean didn't tell me about that. Because it didn't happen.
