Anyone on the boards into racing?  What is up with Danica Patrick's  flame out the other day?  She had my respect up until she threw a temper tantrum  and stomped her feet around the track.  Talk losing control of your emotions.   T. Stewart has been upity lately too.  Guess the heat  is gettin to some of these guys... Ooops I mean gals.  G Friends going to    in the stands.  Guess that's why I watch. Â

I have got to the point I won't watch eather one anymore.
Indy car racing isn't the way it used to be since the split.
NASCAR has been nothing but a bunch of whining crying 2 year olds that cant race with out being dirty.
Just My 2 bits worth.

Just a guess but maybe liked seeing the paint swaping events and wanted to get in on it.

He's a good driver, just a little over-agressive, at times.... Not being competitive in F-1 prolly made the decision easier....

Listened to the Race on XM on the way back from Havasu. Â The announcer guys definitely held my attention the last 20 laps or so. Â Sounded like a pretty exciting finish with a few guys staying out on the track during the final caution with only 16 to go. Â 
Heard the wreck at the end was a pretty hard shot as evidence by the above pic.

Heard on a followup interview that the reason they didn't throw the caution until after Johnson crossed the finish line was because there was plenty of time for the rest of the field to cross the line and slow down prior to reaching the crash site
