Sarge+ 3,436 Posted April 19, 2012 (edited) Biffle has always been one of those guys who has been right on the cusp of winning a Cup but has never been able to make that extra push when the chips are down. Edited April 19, 2012 by Sarge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted April 19, 2012 I hate the Biff. But it's a long season and anything can happen after the Chase begins. I'd be pretty surprised to see him in the Top 5 after the last race. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted April 21, 2012 I think he hates Biffle because he was a fag at the end of the Daytona 500 and didn't try to win. As for this weekend. Tim George, Jr. won his first career Truck Series pole at Kansas today, but didn't even last a corner in the lead. James Buescher is leading the race currently looking for his first career Truck Series win. AJ Allmendinger is one pole for tommorrow's STP 400 on the Cup side. It is his 2nd career pole and first since Phoenix in 2010. Starting Lineup STP 400 Kansas Speedway Race 8 of 36 1.#22 AJ Allmendinger 2.#29 Kevin Harvick 3.#20 Joey Logano 4.#11 Denny Hamlin 5.#55 Mark Martin 6.#56 Martin Truex, Jr. 7.#88 Dale Earnhardt, Jr. 8.#15 Clint Bowyer 9.#5 Kasey Kahne 10.#12 Sam Hornish, Jr. 11.#2 Brad Keselowski 12.#31 Jeff Burton 13.#39 Ryan Newman 14.#51 Kurt Busch 15.#48 Jimmie Johnson 16.#10 David Reutimann 17.#16 Greg Biffle 18.#17 Matt Kenseth 19.#27 Paul Menard 20.#24 Jeff Gordon 21.#99 Carl Edwards 22.#38 David Gilliland 23.#14 Tony Stewart 24.#30 David Stremme 25.#18 Kyle Busch 26.#43 Aric Almirola 27.#34 David Ragan 28.#9 Marcos Ambrose 29.#78 Regan Smith 30.#47 Bobby Labonte 31.#49 JJ Yeley 32.#83 Landon Cassill 33.#36 Dave Blaney 34.#23 Scott Riggs 35.#93 Travis Kvapil 36.#1 Jamie McMurray 37.#98 Michael McDowell 38.#26 Josh Wise 39.#42 Juan Pablo Montoya 40.#13 Casey Mears 41.#87 Joe Nemechek 42.#32 Reed Sorenson 43.#19 Mike Bliss Failed to qualify: #33 Jeff Green, #74 Tony Raines, #79 Tim Andrews Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted April 21, 2012 I think he hates Biffle because he was a fag at the end of the Daytona 500 and didn't try to win. the problem with that theory is that he probably wouldn't have won, had he passed Kenseth then Earnhart more than likely would still have gotten around him putting the two Roush Fenway drivers (Kenseth and Biffle) in 2d and 3d rather than 1st and 3d, he may have even been told not to fight Kenseth for the lead at the end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted April 30, 2012 The Nationwide race between Kurt Busch and Denny Hamlin at the end looked great. Too bad I missed Kurt getting a win, but the NFL Draft is too big. Talladega should be wild this weekend. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glanvilles Grits 142 Posted May 6, 2012 That was a pretty sweet Nationwide race yesterday. To see the fact that a guy can pull out and make a move on someone in the last few hundred yards again is great. Danica wasn't penalized or talked to about putting Hornish into the wall intentionally AFTER the checkered flag. I bet if that was Kyle Busch, or really anyone else, they would have received a fine or something. Danica Patrick, the most over-rated piece of advertising I've ever seen.

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted May 21, 2012 So, the All-Star Race sucks. It does. This format was awful, it allowed Jimmie Johnson to sandbag the whole race and win for no real reason. I went to last year's All-Star race and had fun, but I could tell you the actual race was pretty bad. They need to move it to a new track, Charlotte sucks.

Milla4Prez63 678 Posted June 15, 2012 It has been 26 years since someone has had a qualyifing lap with an average speed over 200 MPH in NASCAR. That record will likely be shattered tommorrow. Over 14 cars practiced with a lap over 200 MPH in today's final practice at the repaved Michigan. Unless NASCAR makes a last second rule change to slow the cars down, the pole sitter will probably have a lap of 201 MPH or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Milla4Prez63 678 Posted June 16, 2012 Marcos Ambrose won the pole at 203 MPH, it makes him the 3rd fastest qualifier in the history of NASCAR behind Bill Elliott and Cale Yarborough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
