Sideways is easy.

Try it with a fully loaded trailer then say you want more power

Hms looks strong. 4 cars in a 19 car race. They should be able to command the lead

JGR will win it again

Quote from Racer Y :

All these people from other countries whining about our gun laws.... Let them. They don't really have a clue. Most of what I've read from them are typical
rehashed responses. If we were to do something stupid like follow Europes's example, I highly doubt the gang bangers in my neighborhood will comply.
In fact, it would be the green light they've been waiting for.
When there is gun play in my area, cops rarely show up - even after being called. Why? Because they know they'll just get their asses kicked. So when I have to throw down with SSP or M13 or SEC or SWC, I'd have more faith in the bullet hose I have than a 911 call.
These anti-gun types don't have a clue about living like that. In fact, they need to stay where they are at and keep up the arm chair quarterbacking. Cause if they were to make the mistake of venturing out into my neck of the woods, they'd get one hell of a wake-up call.
Like I said, you make a gun law that keeps you from owning a gun, it's NOT going to stop me. And worse it's not going to stop the homeboys down the street one bit. All it's going to do is keep YOU from owning a gun.
Didn't we learn that with Drug laws?

Comparing gun laws and drug laws is stupid however. Guns directly kill somebody. Drugs (for the most part) do not. You read about shootings, right? How many times do you read about somebody being suffocated by marajuana leaves or injected with pure drugs so they die?

Those 'anti gun types' do have a point. Just as pro gun types have a point and just as people around the world have a point.

Fact is pre-1996, Australia had a murder and gun problem. Post 1996 and the buyback of guns, Australia has had zero mass murders, the goverment bought back somewhere in the region of 300,000-500,000 weapons.

Your area is not the US as a whole. Yes, you live in a rough area (and that's putting it lightly), but do you honestly think the whole US is like your street or hood? It isn't, there's plenty of areas that are on both sides of the debate.

Lastly, rehashed responses? I could say the same for your posts and other American responses, so it isn't just from one side.

Quote from Rappa Z :

Dawedust points out the obvious irony of removing the 2nd amendment. If we ever did it, I bet a few politicians would end up getting shot for it.

As much as we do need to restrict firearm ownership in the US, we have a gun culture (one I will probably join at some point in the future) that simply will not be erased. Honestly, I'd be surprised if anything at all comes of the current legislation push and even then, it'll probably just be smaller clips and maybe (I doubt it) an assault rifle ban for a few more years. Fact is, people with guns tend to selfishly think of their own right and how they can safely operate a gun, but there's that insane minority that make guns a danger to all of us.

So what's the difference between people with guns being selfish and people with cars, or knives, or planes?

There's thousands of responsible butchers and chefs with knives, but there's a tiny, insane minority (as with guns and cars) that make knives a danger.

Quote from flymike91 :

It is logistically and constitutionally impossible for the government to remove all 350,000,000+ guns without sparking a civil war, so if your goal is to save lives you're going about it the wrong way.

Mass murder and citizen disarmament go hand in hand, with Nazi Germany being the best example.

Australia disagrees.

Since 1996, no mass murders.

Well NASCAR Europe already goes to Spa and Le Mans, so....

No, there's worse that have raced. Like....oh I dunno, the Days of Thunder cars? Horrible schemes

Newest series for 2016

So, test NASCAR boats. Problem solved

Jeremy Mayfield called into an off-season radio show to talk to Brian France . Confront might not be the correct word really as the article suggests.

No way he'll be allowed back in

Quote from Cornys :

The shootout is no more.. Now we get a Sprint Unlimited!

http://www.nascar.com/en_us/ne ... /07/sprint-unlimited.html

Goes back to the race's roots actually. Pole winners and past event winners only

Dumb name though.

Bring back an exciting and sexy sponsor ASAP! Sprint is boring

Am I the only one remembering when Group C died off and the fallout from that and relating it to the current situation?

Here's hoping for Dauer levels of ingenuity from somebody at Le Mans

Quote from Mustangman759 :

oh I agree, but the town is also run by people who potentially lost a family member. I know someone who's mother taught a bunch of those kids in the summer. In times of despair people do weird things and try to place the blame on anything they can.

Which is stupid though and very, very short sighted to focus in on one media and one media only.

Guns don't kill people, People do. Games don't train people to go and get a rifle and murder anyone any more than LFS trains you how to race a BF1 at 220mph around London.

Burning or destroying one media is a straw man argument. For argument's sake, let's say the shooter liked rap music, would the town now be destroying every bit of music they could? Or if they liked TV, the town would want to turn off every TV? That article had a comment saying to burn every religious text, That I would get behind.

The town's reaction is knee jerk and just as stupid as the people who went online and attacked the Mass Effect fan page.

Quote from Mustangman759 :

Well some people were more affected than others. And I will tell you it is completely different when its so close to home and not in another state. trust me it hits home and makes you think about how that could have been any school.

That reaction (the town's, not your reaction) is stupid though. Target one media but leave others alone?

Picking faves anyone?

GT40 at any track plus rain means al oad of sideways action

Least Denny's first in something this year....

Like the 80s Miller logo, but that's the only thing I like about it

Nooooooooooooo

And NHMS under the lights? http://blog.masslive.com/racin ... _according_to_survey.html

NHMS and lights won't happen, they got to get out of the contract and convince two police departments and towns to let NHMS run under lights.

Charge from the rear in 3....2....1...

Is it me or has Brad's total followers skyrocketed after Homestead.....again?

I wouldn't say his dad failed though, he had the funding and talent to run a full Truck season and go down in history for flipping a SuperTruck, something that still gets talked about by some fans, he took a win in 1997 at Richmond, he ran 3.5 years of Trucks. That isn't a failiure, that's sticking it out. Brian, I'm still on the fence on, I think if Penske put Brian in the 22, and gave him good equipment we'd have Brad/Brian duelling for wins out there. I would love to see Brian in a Hendrick car or a Penske or a SHR car and have a top ride and the talent to match it.

I shall just leave this here

Brad's gonna look back at that and wonder WTF he was going

Quote from UncleBenny :

I need to find one of those huge Miller Lite glasses for sale, as a Brad K fan I'm sure my brother would love one for Christmas haha.

eBay? I'm sure I've seen a few there or Amazon. Just make sure it works first and keep it for yourself!

Brad is flat out hilarious. First his rant at Phoenix, then his tweet post-race, then that press conference and interview, that has so many soundbites in it
