Yeah... I can't stand anybody from Hendrick racing! I do feel bad for them, tho, in the loss of Ricky and others in the plane crash.And, Kitty, I loved Dale, Sr. He was the best. I think he was 1/2 Duke. =D I think Jr.'s OK now, tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DixieDavenport Posted February 13, 2005 Report Share Posted February 13, 2005 I tpo am glad the race season is here though I worked Sundays and can't keep like I'd like.

Garrett Duke Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Y'all think I am the one that needs help? I think y'all are confused because there is NOTHING wrong with anyone in Hendricks Racing or anything wrong going for them.Granted we all have our drivers and we are all entitled to go for them and against others...that doesn't mean I am the one in need of help. Because it's not me...Gordon has four championships under his belt and had a great season last year. If it wasn't for the new point system, he would have won last year.I'll give you all some credit, because Jr is a good driver ...otherwise he wouldn't be where he is now. And for Tony Stewart...you don't want me to get started there either.Gordon will always be the man I root for...him and Jimmie Johnson.-Garrett Duke- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted February 14, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 Go ahead about Tony Stewart. The ONLY driver to win an open wheel (IRL) and a NASCAR championship. One the few drivers who actually wants to race and race anything , midgets, sprints, Indycars. A championship car owner in both USAC and The World Of Outlaws. One of only a select few to win the USAC midget, sprint and Silver Crown championships in the same year. The only thing he really hasn't accomplished is winning the Indy 500...I will give you Gordon's 4 championships, but will take Tony Stewart's accomplishments over that anytime....Darrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Duke Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 OK...I realize I came off as kinda harsh on my last post; I didn't mean to. I am sorry if I offended you or anyone.I'll say the same as I did about Jr...Tony is a good driver...he won the championship only a couple of years ago. He is a good driver, but a very aggressive one at that. I respect you and everyone elses choice of driver. If Stewart is the guy for you, then that is great. I didn't know all that about him...thank-you for pointing that out to me. Those are some pretty good accomplishments he has.As I tell a friend of mine...who is a big JR fan...I don't have anything against JR or any of the other drivers out on the circuit. They are all pretty good to one extent or the other. I just go for Gordon. -Garrett Duke- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethie88 Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I have no problem with you, there, Garrett... If you've read Hazzard in Trouble lately, I'm trying to talk your twin into being nice to you. lol. But anyway...I agree with you... NASCAR is all about everyone having their favorite, and that favorite not being the same with everybody. If everybody liked Jr., it wouldn't be so much fun. And therefore, although I do NOT like Jeff or Jimmie, and do not pull for any of Hendrick's drivers, I respect them, and their accomplishments speak for them... It's a good team. My favorite driver was Earnhardt, Sr. for many years, and alot of people talked trash about him. But they had to respect him and his accomplishments. I do not like Jeff personally, but I do give him that much. And you have every right to pull for him. I simply choose not to!So, let's all just get along... Or is it a long neck. ~Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted February 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 No apology necessary.....I always bust on Gordon fans and so do most people who who don't like him. That is what NASCAR is all about, cheering for your favorite no matter what. But in the end, WE all will have a beer together no matter who we pull for or who wins th race..Darrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethie88 Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Well, y'all will all have a beer... I'm underage. lol! But maybe someone'll give me a little sip of their shine. ~Beth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonzi242004 Posted February 15, 2005 Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 i am pulling for Kasey Kahne,driver of the #9 DODGE and im also pulling for Jimmy Johnson but my main driver of the 2 is Kasey because of his efforts and wins last season plus he has a good mentor(Awesome Bill Elliot)well look at this im pulling for KK and JJ lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted February 15, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2005 Kasey Kahne - What wins? 5 second place finishes. He was the first rookie in about 5 years not to win a Cup race. He will definately be in winners circle this year if he races like he did last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fonzi242004 Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 SORRY I DIDNT MEAN WINS, I MEANT 2ND PLACE FINISHES LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Duke Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 I understand what y'all are saying! I am the same way...most people I know are Jr fans -still don't know why - (LOL!) but we all get along other than teasing back and forth about eachother's drivers. I don't have a problem with JR or SR...they are great drivers...in fact Sr is one of the two drivers who has more championships than Gordon....Sr and Richard Petty both have seven. Gordon has four...for now at least. LOL! Bethie...thank-you for your input on "Hazzard in Trouble" hopefully you can talk some sense into my twin. LOL.Hopefully all our drivers will have good seasons and that we all shall enjoy the season while it lasts...five more days until Daytona! -Garrett Duke- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethie88 Posted February 16, 2005 Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Well, Garrett, I'll try talking some sense into him, but you know how Bo can be. Anyway... Later!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_Redneck Posted February 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2005 Now this is makes NASCAR a family sport. I am sorry I just like to pick on Gordon fans. It's funny Jeff Gordon is like a curse word in my house, my kids are not allowed to say that name...LOL..Everyone the beer is me this weekend, except Bethie , you get a Dr. Pepper since you are a youngin' Darrell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Duke Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Gordon a cuss word? *shakes head in disgust* Y'all don't know what you're missing out on. LOL. I still don't see what y'all see that is so wrong with Gordon. LOL. Oh well, as I said, we all have our right to a certian driver.As for that beer...Gordon fan or not, it is very much appreciated! -Garrett Duke- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bethie88 Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 Well, thanks for the Dr. Pepper, there, Darrell! I appreciate it...Hey, Garrett! You're right!
