Over at the SpeedTv boards they have a driver look alike thread. Check out some that I found. Some are a scream.

Hey Deb, missed the race today. I heard my boy Jeff had alittle hit and run at the end to get his win.

Hit and run He booted him out of the way...but it's really a non-issue in my book because Matt ran out of gas and wouldn't have won anyway.

I'm sure if you catch the shows on SpeedTv this week, you'll see the replay a zillion times. Watching Wind Tunnel now and some lady just called in and said Jeff was a lowlife...Dave was so shocked for a moment and was speechless and like...now do I say.

Now, I'm not a big Gordon fan by any means, but in my opinion, Matt slowed down, Jeff had the faster car and ran into him. His comment after the race was I didn't mean to spin him. Reminiscent of a certain #3 car that just meant to rattle his cage.

What's done is done and the media will have a heydey with it this week. You see the speedtv forum...holy mackeral are they up in arms over there.

Not many people do like 24 But he is a good race driver. I remember not to many liked Dale at first, but he sure did grow on people.

See which car Montoya drove at Chicago. The big 24. I think he is going to bring some good back to NASCAR.
I did see the bump. I've seen worse. No conspirecy. Just hard drivers.

He's got plenty of fans for sure. He's one of the many drivers who people either love...or love to hate. You can add Dale Jr, Tony Stewart, Jimmie Johnson and the Busch brothers to that list as well...and probably a few others. NASCAR fans are very passionate about who they like and dislike as you well know.

BTW...at the end of the race after Jeff won, it was like that Talladega race he won a year or 2 back. Stuff was being thrown by the fans at his car. Not cool in my book...whether you like him or not.

Thats not cool at all. Somebody has to win. If its not my driver I get annoyed but they should respect the winner.
