Why hasn't Jr. won a championship yet?

May be...

wich jr?

Dale Jr. is a good driver but it takes a huge amount of consistency to win the Sprint cup. Just think about it. He had to beat.....
1. Jeff Gordon 2000-
2. Jimmie Johnson 2002-
3. Kyle Busch 2005-
4. Mark Martin 2000-
5. Matt Kenseth 2000-
6. Kurt Busch 2001-
7. Dale Jarrett 2000-
8. Carl Edwards 2005-
9. HMS 2000-
10. Roush Racing 2000-
And anybody else that is great.
Also he hasent had the best crew cheif.
Tony Eury Sr. had Jr. from 2000-2004. Jr. won the DAYTONA 500 in 2004 and won 7 races and a 3rd place in points. Tony Jr. steps in and puts jr. 19th in points and from there he sucked. Tony Jr.'s fault and Dale Jr is almost consistent enough but not quite.

It is not up to the driver to win the championship. It takes the pit crew, crew chief, and spotter, plus the drivers and all other members of the team. It takes a team to win the championship, just like Lowe's Racing Team.

Because he hasn't been good enough to win one. Simple as that.

He hasn't won a championship in Cup because he's not as consistent as other drivers. Bobby Labonte, Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Matt Kenseth, Kurt Busch, and Jimmie Johnson all won championships since Jr. got to Cup because they consistently finished well and won races. I think Jr. should let his crew chief make the calls on the adjustments, not him, and they may have better results. Focusing a little more might help too. But, who really knows. Maybe one day he will win one, but who's to say? People thought Mark Martin would have won a championship by now...

If he is as great as all of his fans say, why has he not won a championship yet? Jimmy Johnson came to Cup after Jr. yet Jimmy has, I think doubled Jr's win total and won 3 championships.

Lets not use the idiotic "equipment" argument. If you use that argument then you acknowledge that DEI has crap equipment.

So can the Jr. fans at least admit that Jr. is just not that good? Or will they continue to scream "Jr. is the best, man"?

LOL I remember when Kenseth and Jr came up to CUp the same year. I heard, " Oh, Jr. will own Kenseth, just like he did in Busch" LOL, great prediction, don't you think?

It is ok Jr. fans. Kyle fans were in the same place when Richard retired. They thought Kyle would dominate like his dad, so I guess we really can say:

Kyle = Jr.

Both is the son of a 7 time champion that really has not done anything.

IMO, I think a lot of people compared him too much to his father. The standards were always set way too high for him. He'll never be at that level of greatness. He's a good driver, but not one of the best. I don't see him winning a championship anytime soon, probably none at all. Just my opinion though! We will see....

Because there are so many drivers out there better then he is.
Get over it Jr fans, he sucks.

Junior hasn't won a Championship yet, because he hasn't. Simple.
Should I throw a couple "LOLs" in there for you, Buddy...

Ha ha ha ha, Jr. is just mediocre at his best.

Being a champion and earning a championship is like an equation. It takes many factors for it to come alive and to be fulfilled.

Talent + good crew chief/crew + team effort/confidence + some luck = championships.

Jimmie Johnson has had each of the 3 components the last 3 years...Jeff Gordon has had it when he won his 4..

Every driver needs those..

Jr. has vast/average talent BUT not a good crew chief... what I mean is the connection between the two are not that good.. again and again i repeat.. family is not good together when it comes to WORK/sports.. bottom line...

Team effort and confidence is okay.. and the luck.. well lets just say Jr. is not that very lucky...

I believe that is why Jr.. however, may have had parts of that equation in recent years, it wasn't complete, for one, and it was enough for another.. and the last 2 years, there's been very little..

jr fans are hung up on the days when jr was actually good at what he does.
those days are gone, replaced by a celebrity rather than a racer.
a guy content on finishing every race 10th with his cousin on the box, rather than win with someone else.
a guy who has an ego so big, it's amazing he can put his helmet on every sunday.
a guy who whined to rick hendrick that he felt like people were conspiring against him.
a guy who threatens to beat his crew with a hammer.
a guy who puts a towel over his head, rather than face the press.
a guy who sulks when things don't go his way.
drivers who win busch championships rarely go on to win a cup championship.
bobby labonte is the only exception.
he hasn't won, because he goes out there on sunday to collect a paycheck, rather than win the race.
it's a fact.
jr. fans are blinded by their loyalty, and they throw temper tantrums when people call out their beloved jr.
but it's FACT!

Cause he's a no-talent bum?

because his performance isnt really that balanced (atleast this year it isnt). he started out pretty bad then he had a 10th, 11th, and 8th place finish or mabe 11 10 8 but anyway he started to straighten things out and then yesterday.......ugh i wasnt able to catch the race and after watching the video's of him on nascar.com today im pretty sure i didnt miss anything exciting except gordon getting his first win at texas.

He's just not focused enough. His head clearly is not in the game and I'm not so sure his heart is anymore either. Facts are facts and the fact is that when his daddy died, so did Jr.

Let's give credit where credit is due:

I admire Jr for putting up with everybodys crap! When the time is right, he will be a champion. If you want to mention drivers who haven't won, what about Kasey Kane, Denny Hamlin, David Stremme, David Ragan, Mark Martin (I really love this guy), David Reutimann, Casey Mears, Robby Gordon, just to name a few. Why isn't everybody concerned about them not winning a championship?

EDIT: Someone a while back summed it up like this: This is racing. This is called racing. Some years work for some drivers and not for others. That's what the sport is all about.

You're right slither...
Jr may have won more races than Kyle but that doesn't make him a champion, if it did there would be so many champions out there that it would lose it's meaning. Jr can't even keep up with the cup drivers in the Nationwide races. I think the biggest difference between Kyle Petty and Jr is, Kyle is not pretentious.

Everyone but you should know by now.,not Jr's fault, it's the CREW CHIEF..

Don't be stupid.. If you just want a forum to say you don't like Jr, just say it.. Two former Champions had fewer wins, than Jr did, until very recently.. The criteria isn't the same, from year, to year.. Mark Martin, in one of his most recent close calls with the Championship, accumulated enough points to have won the title in any one of the ten years before, or after.. With a commanding lead.. Didn't get him the title in that year.. Bill Elliott won eleven races in 1985, but DW won the title with only two wins.. It means something, but not as much as they try to make out of it these days.. Mark Martin will be in the Hall of Fame anyway.. Jr may not be, and Kyle may not be, but Mark is a shoe in.. So is Jeff, and Jimmie is workin' on it.. BTW: Dale said that Matt is better than Jr.. Even Jr knows that..
Where do you even compare Kyle Petty to Jr.. In 04 Jr won more races than Kyle did in more than twenty years.. I don't think Kyle was in the top ten in points, ever.. Where do you pick up fairytales like that.. They are as bogus, as you are..

You mean DEI didn't have crap equipment? Hell they've only had 1 win as a company since 2006. Let's not forget 2007, 13 blown engines, including 3 out of 4(and an RCR car using the same engine as well) in one race and one that didn't even last 15 laps at California. Even now, as EGR, the 42's using basically old Ganassi cars and the 1 and 8 are using old DEI cars, Montoya's 14th in points, of the 2 guys that were at DEI last season, Truex is the highest at 25th, not good. While we're at it let's compare DEI and RCR, whose engines come from the same shop, Bowyer and Burton have more wins combined than DEI since 2006. Or how about this one, until DEI absorbed Ginn, JR Motorsports had more advanced testing equipment(7-post shaker, etc) for a Nationwide car, and 3 local late-models than DEI did for 3 Cup cars.

He.s not a good driver Periodcoke double point reward
