Words of wisdom........from a veteran.

An interesting perspective from another driver.

“I was listening to Mark [Martin] on PitCommand last night. His car was great for long runs. He was happy with it most of the night. He tried to hold KB off but KB was faster at that time. Then he got faster and couldn’t get by. His spotter and CC were on the radio constantly telling him what his times were and those around him. He was yelling at them to tell the lapped cars to quit battling for the lucky dog in front of him and let him by. He was cussin up a storm over Kyle “driving like a damn Idiot”. Then when KB punted Jr he was really POd. Said he was gonna hurt someone one day with bonehead moves like that.”

THIS WILL BE MY FINAL NASCAR THREAD REGARDING NASCAR ON FREE REPUBLIC. THE LADY IN BLACK - DARLINGTON IS A PERFECT PLACE FOR ME TO END MY RUN HERE. WE USED TO HAVE FUN AND HAVE A RUNNING CONVERSATION ABOUT RACING.
HOWEVER, LATELY IT HAS BECOME MORE ABOUT OTHER THINGS INCLUDING BULLYING AND STUPIDITY WHICH I CHOOSE TO NOT BE A PART OF.
IT'S BEEN A GOOD RUN, KEEP ALL 4 WHEELS ON THE GROUND....

Another weekend...another reason to dislike either of the Busch brothers. (Where is Jimmy Spencer when we really need him?!)

Thanks for that perspective. Mark is, and always has been, a true gentleman -- on the race course and off.
