JoeP@TeamBeckyD · 02-19-2011, 01:19 PM

I'm the eternal optimist for Dale Jr....

How about you?

BackinBlackSS/RS · 02-19-2011, 01:24 PM

Of course anyone Chevy. My favorite drivers are Jeff Gordon, Dale Jr. and Mark Martin.

2010 SSRS · 02-19-2011, 01:24 PM

Gordon or Johnson with the win will make me happy

IOM Hokie · 02-19-2011, 02:55 PM

I think this is Smoke's year. We are gonna see the 14 in Victory Lane.

I like how its 2011 and the announcers still bend over backwards to make excuesses for Danica not being able to drive

"9 laps to go, 14th place and 1 lap down, Danica is doing great today!"

CatiaJockey · 02-19-2011, 05:26 PM

I'm still pulling for Dale Jr.

Well, she avoided all those wrecks and beat 26 other drivers.

I mean I don't think anyone is expecting her to compete for a championship yet. Things take time, I don't know if she can do it, but she has very few races under her belt in the series.

Other Indy drivers has no such troubles for so long.

They got in and blended in.

I don't think anyone them were that great after what 10-12 races. She has not been in many. Dario Franchitti didn't do so well, and he is kinda good at the Indy thing.

Anyway, if i had to bet, then i would say she will probably be average at best, but I just would like to see it play out before I make a judgement.

As long as a Chevy driver wins, I'm happy.

On a side note: I HATE the 2 car BS... This ruins the Super Speedways for me this season.

I'm so glad I decided not to go this year.

Dale Jr.-- he's had a long slump can't jump off his wagon though and come on ya gotta be pullin' for an Earnhardt at Daytona. It would be special for him to win on the 10th anniv of Big E's death too.

I will say though I am not happy with all their package changes that have now made it a 2 car partnership to win. No single car passes or power moves to take the win. Its not supposed to be tag team racing
