He could have, but didn't. If he had it still would not have given you the outcome you desire, since your driver was beaten by two other drivers.

Lol I wish there was a video of Jimmie falling out of that golf cart. That would be really funny! Shame he won't be racing in the race of champions though - they should try to get Smoke to replace him.

Doesn't sound as exciting as how Paul Tracy broke his arm in a golf cart accident :p

Is it just me or does Jimmy always look stoned??

Cut out the rudeness.

Seriously, Johnson was not at the wheel of the golf cart, and they say it was a celebrity tournament incident. I don't know if it was that for the Jimmie Johnson Foundation or if it was a golf outing with Lowe's or other sponsors.

From the report, the person driving the golf cart made a hard turn which threw Jimmie off-balance. Whoever did that could face course discipline. You don't do that -- when I golf, I prefer to walk.

He is out of action for the ROC, unfortunately.

Actually, he wasn't IN the golf cart.

From Jayski:
UPDATE: The Citrus County Chronicle reported that Johnson was laying on the roof of the cart when he fell.(Associated Press)(12-11-2006)

CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Jimmie Johnson was "horsing around" on top of a moving golf cart when he fell off and broke his left wrist, his team told The Associated Press on Monday.

The version clarifies what happened during the celebrity tournament in Lecanto, Fla., one day after the initial account from Hendrick Motorsports implied that the Nextel Cup champion had fallen out of the cart.

Although Hendrick officials gave no details of the accident, Johnson released a statement that said he was "in" the cart when he fell out.

"I was in a golf cart and the driver took a sharp turn," Johnson said Sunday. "I wasn't holding on tight enough, landed awkwardly on the ground and heard a little pop."

That account differed from one in Monday's edition of The Citrus County (Fla.) Chronicle, which had a reporter at the Black Diamond Ranch who witnessed Johnson horsing around during the Mike Hampton Pitching In Celebrity tournament.

The newspaper said Johnson was sprawled across the top of the cart Friday as it headed toward the 16th hole when his playing partner hit a berm, throwing Johnson several feet.

Johnson was unavailable for comment Monday, but a spokeswoman for the driver confirmed he was on top of the cart when The AP asked for clarification.

"Jimmie was horsing around and was on top of the golf cart when he fell off," spokeswoman Kristine Curley said. "He wasn't trying to deceive anyone and is sorry if anyone believes he was being untruthful."

What kind of course discipline should one receive for riding on the roof of the golf cart then Bobby? :p
