Whats wrong with jr.?

May be...

He's been running fine...hes just had mechanical problems... Dover... cut tire... Talladega... strongest car... gets in someone else's wreck. Lowe's... Running top 5-7, cuts a tire. He should have won a couple more races.. but overall its been a good season. Nothing is wrong with him. No one is saying "Whats wrong with Denny Hamlin, or Matt Kenseth, or Kevin Harvick"

I wasn't expecting him to win the championship this year. He is under alot of pressure. He did what I wanted him to do and make the chase.
He has ran good all year long but struggles in the end, they need to work on that for next year.
No I do not think is overrated.

don't think anything is wrong with Jr, he's having a better year than last year...

i'm a fan of jr. but yeah he is kind of overrated.

NA$CAR didnt give him his best chance at a championship, Rick did. He's in his first year at the stable, I would have to say that he's doing pretty good. As far as being an over rated driver, he's far from it, Casey Mears and David Stremme are what I would consider over rated drivers.

Now if tires blowing, getting caught up in someone elses mess is an indication that something is wrong with Jr, than you have a ton to learn about NA$CAR.

Each driver has his own driving style, I read a comment about him riding the rim of the track. Some of the greatest drivers in NA$CAR would ride the rim of the track and were very successful at it, Jr himself has been successful with it.

As far as Jr bringing his "bad habits" with him to HMS, just because the guy has other interest outside the car, doesnt mean that he doesnt focus on his career. A lot of drivers have interest outside the car, Jeff Gordon in his prime started Action with Dale Earnhardt. Carl Edwards has his music stuff, Tony Stewart has his tracks. There's nothing wrong with it.

I also get tired of hearing that Tony Jr is a thorn and is what is holding Jr back. Tony is a great crew chief and him and Dale will start hitting their stride and make a great championship run. My predication is next year.

My expectations as a Jr fan has been met this year, if he doesnt do anything next year, then I'll start being a little more critical, but in the end, he could finish 43 in the standings and it really doesnt matter to me, because I just like Dale Jr. IMO, regaurdless of your driver, that is what makes a fan.

a rating is a rating. And "we the people" can rate anyway we want.
And that I will agree on.

He seems to have trouble driving anywhere on the track and ends up going to the top where he hits the wall or has a flat tire. He needs to learn to drive the car anywhere on the track like Kyle Busch seems to do,and get better at avoiding wrecks.

NO TALENT

You can put any product in a package and say new and improved but have the same results.Thus Junior is the package.
He came to Hendrick as the media king,the championship contender , and he is.But he brought his habit's from DEI.
He is too involved with interest away from the track and does not concentrate on the event.
Then he keeps Tony Jr as crew chief,which there is nothing wrong with family loyalty,but Tony Sr was the brains and both Juniors have a ways to go.
Junior took the media by storm when he announced he was leaving DEI and he played up to it and showed some brief periods of being a top contender but would let himself get caught up at the wrong place at the wrong time.

He quit drinking!!

Just think about the pressure that he is under to win a championship....I think right now he is trying to drive his car a little too hard and pressing too much...........He can forget about it this year but I firmly believe he will do much better in his 2nd year.

I am totally happy with what he has accomplished in this stable of drivers..............

I will never say that Jr is the greatest driver ever (not even close) but really get sick of people saying that he can't drive. He has 18 career victories including 6 victories in 2004 where he finished 5th in the points. In 2003 he only won 2 races but finished 3rd overall...........Kyle Petty has been racing for nearly 20 years on the circuit but only has 8 wins but Jr. is the one that every one like to harp on about "riding on his daddy's name"............Dale Jr also won 2 consecutive titles in the Busch (Nationwide) series and I guess some poeple would argue that his Dad won that for him too.........I realize that many folks will never change their opinion of Dale Jr and will "hate: forever but the guy has some pretty good career numbers and as they say.........numbers do not lie.

HATE ON BABY, it's ok............................


KK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,you are an idiot, plain and simple (minded)

R 4 Roberto................Uh, NO you are NOT a Jr. fan if you make that kind of statement; trust me on that one.

ok now that nascar gave jr his best chance for a championship and he was in the strongest organization out there do we all finally agree he is way overated !!!!!!!!!acapulco club en gay gro
