Also he does not whine about anything on the track and has been punted by many a driver out there. Unlike many of you and some other drivers he realizes that this happens in racing. The childish nicknames are truly offensive and show your maturity level. I realize I shouldn't bother responding and for the most part I do not but today you've taken me over the edge. Vickers got into Brad for the last crash at 'Dega and then he got into Kurt whose bumper basically fell off because he was already torn up from the rest of the race. Get the facts..

Sorry..I shouldn't have gone there you are right aunty but my blood is boiling a bit today.

^^^ I'm not offended. I've been called much worse - here and elsewhere.

I was about half with you until the "he doesn't whine" part.. as I've heard him many times whining that the cup drivers were bullying him and he was just not going to take it- that was his excuse for wrecking them..

and Brad said absolutely NOTHING of the sort in regards to the end of the Talladega race.. made no mention at all about the 83 hitting him.. said he went to push Kurt and didn't realize how badly his back bumper was torn up.

PS- I think he'll do fine once he gets the chip off of his shoulder.

Brad was hired by Dale Jr. because his previous drivers tore up his equipment on a regular basis. You will note that he has stayed with Dale for 2 1/2 years and has been highly competitive WITHOUT tearing up equipment... P.S. Loveydovey seems a highly inappropriate name from what I have seen from you ...

If you re-read my last post, you will realize I said he tears up everyone else's equipment. Ask the Penske NNWS team fab shop how many of their cars have gotten torn up by Kez. That's where my intolerance of him comes from, as I am an Allgaier fan.

Also, many of my seemingly anti-Krash posts have actually been aimed at NASCAR's stance on going under the yellow line, as Regan Smith did at Dega last year, vs what happened in this year's Spring race at Dega. I find it that passing under the line is much much safer than sending a car flipping towards the stands.

And finally, as per my screenname, Lovey-Dovey...when I picked that name I was looking for the most ironic name I could possibly use. The ironically titled song by punk band Local H, "Lovey Dovey" came on, and I said "That's PERFECT".

I am somewhat surprised by the amount of HATE directed at Brad, the kid is VERY GOOD. As mentioned earlier, he's been with JR MOTORSPORTS for a couple of years and they have already said they are going to miss him. Some here have very short, selective memories. When Brad first came to NNS, he WAS PUSHED around by the Cup boys. At first he did what most newbies do, nothing. This year he started pushing back. I would tell all the "fans" out there, either you push back or you'll be pushed out! He will learn pretty quickly how much he can push and whom. If he doesn't, he will be in lots of wrecks. The problem with lots of drivers is trying to get them to go harder. As a couple of really great CC's have said over the years it's a lot easier to get them to slow down, then to speed up. That's Brad. He'll learn and I look forward to some great battles between him and kyle and Smoke and.... well you get the picture.

The word is Kurt may be the MOST DIFFICULT driver to work for in pit lane. Being talented nowadays isn't enough, if you constantly complain about the crew and the equipment, you're not going to be in the car. Kurt is a very good driver, but if what has been said is TRUE, it's time he watched his P's & Q's.

As YF said, once Brad looses that chip on his shoulder, look for him to be a top 10 year in and year out. AA JMHO

If I were just a Kyle fan, I probably wouldn't have a beef with him. As an Allgaier fan, I despise him.

And he wrecked a lot of cars Sunday by trying to bump draft a car that didn't have much rear bumper to bump draft on...which also forced the race to basically be cut by one lap.

I've heard a few negative things out of you about Kes, young lady..

you've only recently stopped whining about Brian Vickers wrecking Jimmie Johnson 3 years ago.. just because Kes hasn't wrecked Jimmie yet, doesn't mean it won't happen.. maybe now that he's in the 12 full time he can get it done without so much heat.
