OK, so I'm planning a career change.....?

  • It has nothing to do with being a female.
    It's because:
    a) You're probably older than 10 years old. Too late to start karting for a Formula 1 career.
    b) You have no background racing professional karts, junior formulae, etc.
    c) You're not a millionaire and without a backgroung you'll never get sponsors to pay for your karts/junior formula cars. Unless of course your last name is Senna or Piquet.

  • Sounds great but i suggest you keep taking your medication...just in case.
  • I am desperate for cash too!
    Robbing Credit Suisse is easier than getting into Formula one without passion for it, good luck with your dodgems and get brain implants!
  • you've got to be member of the circle dude
  • Go for it!

    If you're good on the dodgems, nobody will mess with you on track that's for sure, just make sure your life insurance is up to date.
  • I know what your gonna say, I'm a female I can't be a formula one driver but I reckon I could be really good at it. Driving those cars must be a bit like a go-kart, and although I don't have a driving licence I really good on the dodgems at the fair.

    So what I want to know is, do you just turn up at one of those gran prix races and if you win like Lewis Hamilton did do you get a million pounds?

    I'm desperate for some cash.

  • Why are people so mad that jimmy Johnson keeps winning?

    May be...

  • uhhh jimmy johnson doesnt win he doesnt even race hes a sportscaster
  • For the same reason people were upset when Kyle Busch kept winning earlier this season: They will always hate the person who is dominating, unless it's their favorite driver, regardless of whether or not that driver has talent.

  • i see that most of the people who hate Jimmie Johnson are mostly Gordon haters too. they hate Jimmie because he's a Hendrick Motorsports driver and Jeff Gordon's teammate. and most of those Gordon/Johnson haters are royal Dale Jr fans (who routed for him back when Dale Sr was still alive and running DEI.) and most are too blind to see that Dale Jr is also Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson's teammate. and now the Mark Martin fans who hate Gordon and Johnson will also turn an blind eye at Martin being the new teammate for Gordon/Dale Jr./Johnson in 2009. and there's some royal Roush Fenway nuts who want "Cousin Carl" Edwards to kill all hope of an Jimmie Three-peat. and there's the Kyle Busch fans who don't understand that just cause he's won 8 races this year doesn't mean he's championship material yet (maybe in two years or next year, but he blew his chances this year when he had four bad finishes in a row.) and then the other drivers fans who hate Jimmie/Jeff/ HMS because of their success. they are haters in sports. Dallas Cowboys fans has the New York Giants/ Washington Redskin/ Philadelphia Eagles. New York Yankees fans have the Boston Red Soxs, Texas Longhorns Fans have the Oklahoma Sooners and the LA Lakers have the other teams hatting them (i really don't follow the NBA Unless it's the Mavs.) so people will hate because their teams sucks. i would be hating Roush Fenway or Joe Gibbs if they were doing it instead of Hendrick Motorspots. that's my opinions as an Jeff Gordon/Jimmie Johnson/Dale Jr/ HMS fan.
  • i aint mad i just wished you'd shut up
  • look why cant they just respect the fact that he is that good, and understand that you don't need to spread it around for it to be entertaining? just deal with it hes better
  • I respect his talent, but I'm a old school Cale Yarborough fan, and I want Cale's record to stand.. thats all..

    Go Dale Jr,.
  • People want to see someone else win something for once, mainly.(This win at Phoenix was Jimmie Johnson's 40th win. He's only been racing full-time since 2002. Amazing, huh?) Some other people just don't want to see Cale's record beaten.

    Jimmie Johnson(7 wins), Kyle Busch(8 wins), and Carl Edwards(8 wins) have combined to win 23 out of 36 races this year. That's over half. Nobody else has more than two wins. Thats ridiculous in every single sense of the word. That's why people are so angry.
  • Because there's so many drivers who have not won a championship and he keeps on closing the door on those drivers. Enough is enough. If wins the championship again this year. I'll be angry but next year he needs to be off the radar and let another driver win the championship.
  • No kidding! I've noticed that, regardless of the sport, people HATE good athletes. Give credit where credit is due.
  • He is a great driver, but fans are ready for someone else to win. Same thing happened to Gordon, fans still can't stand him.
  • I'd have a little more respect for him if he actually was RACING vs. starting on the pole all the time. You get the top spot in the starting grid AND get the first pit stall, then of COURSE you'll be first all the time, hence you win. I think that's what is annoying people....this season was practically GIVEN to Jimmie Johnson
  • because he's gay......go 88
  • Becouse he is winning, its the same reason why theu were mad when Jeff G.was winning, they wish there driver was winning.car water damage

    May be...

  • correction 196 points
    195 is the most you can get in a single race
  • Jimmie won 3 weeks ago. Don't fall for NASCARS scam of a chase.
  • Yes for the 100th time. If he leaves Phoenix with a 197 point lead then its over.ctrips china

  • i just only have one too. lol @ taz.
  • I love everyone on my contact list and a few I may have not added. I only think that 2 regular posters are a complete waste of DNA.
  • i hate picking favorites, and would hate it if i forgot anybody, so i'm just going to say that i have love all of my contacts :)
  • I like all of my contacts - no way I could pick a top 5. They are all valuable to me for different reasons. Some are smart, some are funny, some are just downright lovable.

    EDIT: "strО±О№tС"dgС" Viva La RockSt*r" is one of the smart, funny AND lovable ones. : )
  • I can't pick just 5 cause i think all my contacts are great
    and plus if i leave someone out they would feel bad so i pick all of you
  • I've got a alot of awesome NASCAR Nation contacts, there's no way I could just pick a top 5.
  • me too. i just got one and thats today. just don't have time til now so maybe I will get to talk to her some.
  • I have no idea. I rarely pay attention. I see some avatars with a contact symbol, it's because they asked me to become their contact and I accepted.. I rarely invite anyone.acuvue free trial canada
  • Comments from Rusty Wallace Again?

    May be...

  • He could very well be right. Negative things said sometimes are true.
  • Not "bashing" Jr., but you have to face it fan or not, Rusty is right he has not improved at all. Poor poor Jr and his fans - I am sick of hearing other people saying all great Jr. is the best - lets all face it, he kind of still falls short (way short) of being the great racer most talk about. If his father where alive I think he would be totally different. One way or another because I think his father would have kicked his all famous son's butt by now!
  • it would be freaking nice if I knew what you were talking about.
  • he is the worst commentator that I have ever heard. He know it all, and he tells you that he does. he needs to retire.Dale Jarrett is much better .
  • Rusty needs to retire and keep spending his millions on supporting his sons campaign on crashing everyone and every week in the nationwide series!
  • Rusty Wallace is the John Force (NHRA) of NASCAR. Rusty yammers about anything and everything. He always has.
  • Freedom of speech. I don't have to like or agree with everything people say.
  • Rusty couldn't be anymore dead on. He's only stating what a person with normal vision sees including myself and any fan of Jr that lives in reality. Jr hasn't improved one bit. The stats prove it.
  • What do you think of his comments about Dale Jr., seems to me he has stuck foot into mouth again.....he just needs to retire in my opinion..he must hate on everyone, this time it's Dale Jr???

    Give honest opinions, no bashing Jr or other drivers, just opinions of Rusty(No bashing really); just what do you think..he opens mouth before thinking or what??

  • Rustys just hating cause NASCAR listens when Jr speaks.
  • He is a announcer for ESPN isn't commenting in his job description. Im pretty sure freedom of speech is still practiced here in USA, God forbid anything said by anyone about Dale Jr. No bashing on Jr but lets do it to everyone else. (no bashing, really) If Rusty gets on your nerves change the TV station.

    Im not a fan of Rusty's TV skill nor am I a Jr fan bashing his crew chief or his pit crew every other lap on the scanner.
  • What did Rusty say about Jr? I missed it.
  • Not a very big Rusty Wallace fan, Big Junior fan. But, he has a right to say whatever he wants. Freedom of Speech. Not going to hold that against him. But I dont also have to agree with him either.

    I do believe Junior has improved since he left DEI. Maybe not alot but he has some. Next year will be better.2006 amplifier ces tube
  • Which NASCAR driver is Irish?

    May be...

  • Tony O'Stewart
    Jimmie O'Johnson
    Casey O"Mears

  • Brian Vickers is Irish, and "mulligan" is the term for his Lucky Charms.
  • hmmm, dario franchitti is scottish. i'm sure many of the others have irish ancestry.

    the term mulligan comes from golf. it is meant as a "do-over" and in a friendly game you may get one or more, depending upon how "friendly" your rules are. they are usually taken at the first shot off a hole. some charity tournaments sell "mulligans" so participants can buy "do-overs."

    they way they use it in nascar is incorrect. they use it to mean a "bad race" that everyone gets in the chase, based on the assumption that everyone will have one (or more). one or two golf-savvy commentators have mentioned that it's not really a "mulligan" as a driver doesn't actually get to do it over like a golfer does after a bad shot. it's not a bad assumption in that in ten races something will generally happen to each driver from finishing well at least once. but last year showed that not to be necessarily true as neither jimmie nor jeff had to use a "mulligan."
  • Kieran Dynes
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kieran_Dyne...

    He used his mulligans up. He died 2 years ago.
  • I think it's Carl Edwards and mulligan means a piece of luck.
  • I have no idea,but I am Scots-Irish :) Leprechaun with a kilt LOL
  • and what's up with the term "mulligan"?
  • a mulligan is a term used by the average golfer
    you get on mulligan per side [9holes] and only from your tee shot
    you hit a bad tee shot you take your mulligan if you done used it you got to play it where it lays
  • i believe its the driver who has o reilly auto parts as his sponsor and idk about mulligancbs fall premier
