    Dale, Jr. is overrated, we hope the race announcers will learn the names of the other great drivers on the track and quit cramming Jr. down our throats, just like they didhis dad

    I don't know what is going on with the nascar officials. Anyone in their right minds can see that kyle Busch did that intentionally. JR was going to pass kyle for the win and Busch knew that and intentionally ran into JR.

    Dale Jr. is a great person and represents Nascar with the greatest dignity. Kyle Busch is a whinny kid and nothing but a big mouth.

    Junebug doesn't have to stoop to an immature driver's level like Kyle. Junebug has way too much class. Junebug just has to keep his mind on racing and staying in the top 12.

    Dale Jr is not overrated. He is not riding on his fathers shirtales. Let me ask you how many races has he won since his dad passed. You are just jealous your driver cannot compete with his popularity.

    A WIN to be proud of. HMS is at the top of their game. Johnson wins a fuel mileage race, as does Junior with a pass of the pace car. That was illegal wasn't it? Nice!!
