NASCAR 2005 Season Discussion

Let's just bypass all "OMG YOU LIKE NASCAR!!!" posts and discuss the upcoming season.

A lot of changes......a lot of new rides.......some of the more interesting stuff:

RCR dumped Robby Gordon, moved Jeff Burton to the 31, and changed the 30 team to the 07 team, which will be sponsored by Jack Daniels, and driven by Dave Blaney. I love Dave Blaney, and I love RCR, I think these will be the guys I will be rooting for this season. With Harvick and Burton as teammates, they could be a huge threat.

Kyle Busch is entering a full season in the 5 car....


A bunch of people are retiring..

This is the last season for Rusty Wallace and Terry Labonte.

The Gibbs team has added a 3rd car, the number 11 FedEx car...but they got Jason Leffler as driver....hmm....I could think of 10 guys that deserve this ride more than Leffler.

Truex is still in the Busch series for another year.....

Michael Waltrip has been told if he does not finish in the top 10 this year, he will be fired.


And of course, in the Dodge camp, they have stopped using Intrepids, and are now racing the new 06 Chargers....I think they are ugly as crap....but whatever.


Discuss.....

I'm excited about the new saeson. I'm a Hendrick fan so of course Gordon, Johnson & now a Bush will be the guys i'll be rooting for this season.

I kinda like the new Dodge, Looks cool imo.

I thought i also heard somewhere that this will be Mark Martins last season as well. The sport just gets younger every year.

I really don't think Atlanta will get it. Everyone is fighting for it here in Charlotte and it belongs here, I think it should be built here but not if i have to pay for it.

I have not heard any rule changes either but feb is coming so i'm sure we'll hear more about the changes.

I like the chargers. I think they look alot better than the Intrepids.

You can check out most of the new teams paint schemes and more charger pics over at [url]www.jayski.com[/url]

Everyone should watch Formula 1 instead of watching a bunch of cars go around an oval for 2 hours.

I tried watching Formula 1, Indy & even Drag racing and i just really could not get excited about it as much as i do for Nascar. I guess i like watching them going around and around cause i really hate the weeks Nascar is at the road tracks but not too much since Gorgon seems to dominate there.

I love all types of racing...including formula 1...the problem with formula 1 nowadays is...the ferraris win every week. This day and age...(as we saw last season) anyone can win on any given day. And hey, they don;t let junior cheat...expcet on the super speedways.

Yeah I agree with you on that part about Ferrari. I don't find NASCAR [i]that[/i] boring, I just find it a bit repetitive to watch them go around an oval for 2 hours. Though if I had access to a track with racing and had tickets, I would still go :D

yah...just like any sporting event, actualyl going to the races is twice as good. We have Atlanta Motor Speedway, which is the fastest speedway on the circuit (they hit 201 on the backstretch going into 3)..and the sheer size of the complex is breathtaking.....
