Mayfield annoys the crap out of me and I don't know why. I just don't like him. Kenny Wallace cracks me up too, and Michael Waltrip, well, he does have a good attitude, but I think he would be much happier if he just came out of the closet already I've got drivers that I feel the same way about - can't put my finger on it, but something is just off - Harvick comes to mind. I like his wife way better than him, but ya know, I couldn't really dislike him because it was the 3 car . . . so torn. Mikey can't come out - he's married to a chick named Buffy - how could you possibly come out after that? LOL Personally, I think it's Jeff Gordon that needs to come out, that new trophey wife is just for show.

The suspensions are a joke! I understand the "grey" areas debate but cheating is cheating, if NASCAR wants it to end they need to make the penalty more severe. Its all a game within a game.
As for the Fav driver debate....I agree Kenny Wallace is hysterical! Def my fav personality. I will say I do like Clint Boyer's interviews. Mayfield = booooooring. I miss the days when Tony used to be angry all the time! Ah well, I'm hearing that Cole Trickle's team in BOL fantasy is going to be tough to beat!!!

My question is: Will Teresa let Jr have controlling interest in DEI?

My question is: Will Teresa let Jr have controlling interest in DEI? I think it will be a very cold day in a very warm place before she turns over any interest in DEI. If I am not mistaken, she just recently signed over the rights to his (Jr's) name! I predict Jr. will be in a Richard Childress car next year.

It look as if Michael Waltrip is going to be seriously screwed! This morning they booted his crew chief and they just booted his VP of Competition.
The wind gusts down here are wreaking havoc on the cars during these practice sessions. They have already put several cars into the wall.

What was the substance in his engine? They don't know yet. They are expecting an announcement and the end of this practice session. This morning NASCAR started stripping down his entire car. His backup car has not passed inspection, and there is only another 15 minutes left of practice for the Duels tomorrow.

I think she'll give him some interest but not 51% - not at this point. I don't think either one of them wants the company to tank and that's what would happen if Jr leaves.
I say he stays but gets a lower percentage of ownership.

Just in case anyone is interested. Michael Waltrip's VP and crew chief have been suspended indefinitely, $100,000 fine, a loss of 100 driver points and 100 owner points.
They are still trying to determine what the substance was in his intake manifold, and they are taking his entire car back to their R&D facility.

Wow! Still, I don't get all the fines and suspension if they still don't know what the substance was. Seems like they'd operate on the same principles as the country they were founded in - innocent until proven guilty ring a bell? I'm betting there's something there that shouldn't be, but still, I'm of the opinion that "the cop didn't see it, I didn't do it"
Who all has wrecked cars so far? I'm afraid to ask ::crosses fingers and chants "not Jr., not Jr."::

Now, I'm assuming they think the substance was a type of performance enhancer. But, what if it turns out someone dropped a mayo sandwich in the engine and it wasn't intentional. Would they get there points back? [And I know that situation's quite a stretch!]

Quite a few drivers hit the wall today from the wind gusts. Ricky Rudd, Kasey Kahne, David Gilliand, and I don't remember who else. But Jr. is fine, he's slow, but he is fine. As for the unidentified substance, basically NASCAR has stated that it shouldn't have been there, but since it was, twice, they can feel that it was something to try to enhance the performance of the engine. Interestingly I heard Rusty Wallace saying that it might have been Sterno. Apparently Sterno in the intake helps to oxygenate the fuel so it burns faster. They are going to allow Michael to race in the Duel tomorrow, but he is doing it in David Ruitmans backup car which he has not practiced in.

Would they get there points back? [And I know that situation's quite a stretch!] I believe that he would. However, since they confiscated the first intake and the substance was also present in the second intake, I think the mayo sandwich is very unlikely.

Well BB, looks like we are both out of luck with our theories. "Someone" is telling the AP it was some type of jet fuel. You'd think he would have qualified better than he did with that Waltrip and Jet Fuel They said right in the press conference that it was not jet fuel. It had a vaseline like consistency to it.

OH, that a big bummer for David Gilliand! Jr. will be slow all year. He doesn't drive worth a crap when his mind is elsewhere and considering the situation over at DEI . . . Well, let's just say I'm not really expecting him to even make the chase this year. Geez, I really am pessimistic today . . .
