I’m not a fan of his personality but for pure car control, shrub is probably the best ever in a stock car.

Not as good as Dale Sr. ... but starting to remind me of his style of driving.

Thanks to you and everybody,, I’ll toss a ping out Thursday the 23rd and hope I can find some speed channel somewhere..

They will have the qualifying for the first row tomorrow on Fox.. and then the Duel 150s will decide the rest of the field..

Kudos to Kyle! Good race!

[NormsRevenge]

He Got R Done.

Well Tony, Addington told you exactly what was gonna happen — and it did.

No kidding.. he sure set up Flash and half the field up there at the end,and then Smoke’d the champ in the end at the line. wow.. ;-)

[GRRRRR]

I think the sponsor was TAG HEUR, a German watch company...???

[vox_freedom]

Yep it is the start of a great NASCAR season. 2012 will be a crazy year for just about everything!

Glad we have FreeRepublic to watch it all happen, together!

"TAG HEUR, a German watch company...???"

I think your right. I probably just heard it wrong.

[GRRRRR]

Yep, I thought so...

I don’t like the rule change. I knew this was going to happen.

Yep. They tried this a few years ago, but before someone got hurt they changed the rules to let them push and get away from one another. The pushing may have not always been the best, but at least most teams made it to the end. But over the winter, I guess a wave of amnesia set in and they decided to go back to the demo derby rules.

No doubt Dale Sr. was a better (and smarter) racer.

But Shrub is amazing as far as reflexes and instinct.

Oh-my-gosh Roccus. Like the 18 or not I have never seen multiple saves when a car is going sideways. Gee whizz that kid can drive.

The understatement of the year is that the new modifications make those cars twitchy. Any driver who tries to push a car on it’s left rear needs to sit in the corner. I forecast a new rule for the race - NO PUSH’N IN THE CORNERS!!

But Shrub is amazing as far as reflexes and instinct.

Indeed! He proved that last night. I'd like to like him based on his skills, but he needs to check his attitude. Hopefully we'll see that this season.

[Pete-R-Bilt]

Ya couldn’t help but notice that him, and big brother put on their smiley, happy faces on for the interviews...

that hadda hurt!

[NormsRevenge]

It's all reflex. lol

He's usually driving on the edge anyway.. piece of cake.

"Cousin Carl" seems like a really nice kid. I talked to him and his Mom at the Nationwide race here in Indy a few yrs ago, seemed like good folks.

Carl's Mom is really cute
