Seems he's a little past 50/50 now.
unfortunately for a lot of you I think ole Caviar Boy is going to kick a lot of "Fried Chicken Ass" And it won't take him a lot of time to start doin it!!!
I'm sure he'll manage to come up with a top20 result every now and then, as soon as he gets used to the new car.
Penske racing have anounced on jayski that Sam Hornish will run 5-6 races in the #77 this year.
I'm looking forward to Jacques driving in NASCAR. I've been a big fan of his since I first saw him race at Nazareth in 1995.
I find this funny and well obviously a sign of how you feel about OWR.Quote:

There are some good O.W. drivers and I expect to see some of them win a race. That is what is great about Nascar, even the mid-pack drivers can win a race now and then.
I disagree - I think when he started nailing Danni Minogue, his racing career went down in flames - but happy flames, mind you ;)Quote:

Number One is that this is the NASCAR forum.
While the openwheel drivers looking at NASCAR is news ...
the number of threads to be used for openwheel drivers has to be limited.
If that offends someone I guess you have the right to complain to someone up the ladder.
I will also be merging NASCAR driver threads when they occur.
Just so it is known, I used to love openwheel racing before the split.
I still have favorites in the openwheel series'.
My openwheel favorites are :
In ChampCar, Paul Tracy is a long-time favorite of mine.
I'm also liking a young driver named Will Power.
I got somewhat familar with Oriol Servia when he subbed for an injured Paul Tracy. (good driver !)
Many of my ChampCar favorites are gone/retired/went to IRL/now team owners :
Jimmy Vasser, Mario & Michael Andretti, Al Unser Sr, Bobby Rahal, Danny Sullivan, Alex Zanardi, Rick Mears, Emerson Fittipaldi, AJ Foyt, & Scott Goodyear.
In IndyCar my favorites are : Scott Dixon, Dario Franchitti, Sam Hornish Jr, Helio Castroneves, Scott Sharp, Buddy Rice, Buddy Lazier & Al Unser Jr.
So, people shouldn't say that I hate openwheel racing because I don't hate it.
In fact I find several of the Champ/Indy drivers quite capable & sometimes entertaining.
The split damaged both series & yet they both still STRUGGLE to survive.
The openwheel racing just doesn't speak to me the way it used to ......
On the technical side of merged threads: When viewing in "hybrid" thread mode which I normally do. The display of messages only goes as far as the first thread. The rest are orphaned below, and the only way to get lower is to click on each message in the overview box. Is it possible to append them better so they flow?Quote:
