I wholeheartedly agree that Jr. screwed himself (and me! crying ) with those mistakes on pit road. However, as I said after the Fall '06 race at Talladega and I say again today; it's one of those racing deals.


I was SO waiting for someone to bring up the fall race at Dega in 06 xD


I was thinkin about it, and the more I think about this and that dega race, the more I think of the desperation to do good, with jr now and vickers then. It was a racin deal and it wont be the last time it happens thats for sure.

Ya with one little difference.
Jimmie Johnson was nowhere near that accident like he was in the Dega race.
But he still did get caught up in this one.
Hmmmm... wonder how he managed that one.
I think you just nailed it Dark Minion. "It's Junior, with a Hendrick Car, at a superspeedway. Why hasn't he won yet?! scream HE SHOULD"VE WON 40 RACES LAST YEAR!!!!1"

The pressure could be getting to him.

As for Jimmie, I found something that should explain how he managed to avoid the wreck this time:

Ha Ha. Considering there are only 36 races in the season, the Shootout, the duel, and the All-Star race, he would only have the opportunity to win 39 races last season. LOL.
And Jimmie Johnson didn't really miss the wreck, because he told Chad Knaus. "That was pretty cool. I did a good job! I did a cool 360 and got it straight and kept going! Did you see me?"
Or something like that...

I'm pissed about the entire way jr raced. Had he worked with burton, burton would not have wrecked at the end. He did wreck vickers on purpose, it's hard to justify that.

DW said it best, no mater what happened before or after. Dale Earnhardt Jr. caused that wreck and him and the other annoucers said during practice today. They believe it was Jr driving that way intentionally.

Oh yeah, Jeff Burton is pissed at Jr. cause Burton said Jr. did that intentionally and it was very stupid.

Actually, Jeff Burton said: "I don't think people ought to be critical of him. I think it is what it is. It's not like Junior is a constant problem. It's not like Junior causes a bunch of wrecks or like he doesn't have respect. He's one of the most respectful race car drivers out there."

I didnt hear what Jeff Burton said, I just listened to DW. What I said was what DW said that Burton said, either way Burton was still mad.

It doesnt bother me anymore, the way he talked and handled it during his interview with DW has me happy.
