Wow, this fell all the way back to page 3, can't have that. So who thinks that Travis Pastrama ( he's currently training to switch over to NASCAR) will be fast tracked to either Nationwide series or even try a race or two in the big show, just based on his name? I wonder if he will live up to the other motocross superstars, Robbie Gordon's, record....discuss :) :beer:

I just think the whole process of going from a bike to a car is to much for these guys to adapt to in a period of time that is compatible for a car owner and today's sponsors. I was a huge Ricky Carmichael fan and look at him, he is lost for the most part and has been racing for what, 3-4 years now? Pastrama will bring his followers to Nascar for a look so that is great marketing but if you put Kyle Busch on a dirt bike and told him to go supercross racing people would tune in once, laff there azzes off and go back to regular programming. Lol.

His fans will expect nytro circus stupidity to stay tuned.... They'll run him in Nationwide for a season with a couple of races in the cup near the end of the season, he'll get bored and disappear.

Do not forget he can haul ass in a rally car. Not saying that will win him championships, but I think he'll do better than RC.......and I'm the biggest #4 fan!!

So who is everyone picking to make the Chase this year in no particular order? My choices are: Edwards, Kenseth, Stewart, Johnson, Kahne, douche Busch, Hamlin, Gordon, Harvick, Biffle, Keselowski, and Earnhardt.

Ahhhhhhh, chit, I knew you posted this but Ive been thinking who I should pick. So I guess there is no time like the present huh???

Let me think.

I need 9 more teams in my league till it's locked. Its in the private leagues as the name is "Northern Nascar" we cant pick drivers till the league locks. If it doesnt then I will have to let is go to a public league just to fill or I will have to join a different one and forget about this one.

Voting with your heart instead of your head. Never a good idea.

You have to remember, 11th and 12th dont necessarily get into the chase. You have wildcard wins. So gordon and kenseth could finish 11th and 12th with no wins and a couple drivers that have wins behind them get in! :eek:

Kasey Kahne had a scope on his knee last week but will be able to race in the Bud Shootout Saturday night. Some discomfort but good to go. Not much news out there lately. Sorry for the weak story. Lol.
