Re: hot pass (directv)

I did not purchase, but I would if I had the extra money. I think it would be awsome. As far as nascar sucking, to each their own, IMO there is alot to be learned from any form of the automobile world. If there was no racing I don't think alot of the performance gains that have been made through the years would have been made at all. Technology transfers from racing to the street in many ways and vise versa. That coment is the same as saying F**D sucks which I have said from time to time myself and everybody has their right to opinion, but Our beloved GM would recognize when they make a fundemental jump in technology in counteract in turn. Just as Toyota comeing to play with our american teams will certainly bring everybody to higher level. Also one added note The rear suspension on nascar cars still to this day mirror our 67 to 72 truck arm rear suspension so any advancements they make with their million dollar budgets will definatly be a bump for us. I don't want to start a long drawn out debate because Like I said before every one has their right to opinion. this is just my .02

Re: hot pass (directv)

they're having it for free this week so i'll see how it is on sunday// the main down side is only 5drivers a week are covered so you could go a long streach without seeing hearing a driver you care about

Don't worry about his intake, I'm sure he didn't inhale.

It was the whole car and he going to a back up with no practice, new team, and no prior championship provisional he may not even make the race.

Re: hot pass (directv)

nobody knows if it is good or not since it hasn't been on yet. I purchased it when it was 79.00. hope it works good and will certainly be worth the money if it works like they say.
I believe that Dale Jarrett is going to substitute as the 5th driver since Micheal Waltrip is having problems.

Re: hot pass (directv)

Nascar just fined michael100 driver points, 100 owner points and two of his people suspended indefinatly. crew chief got $100,000 fine. Chief of operations suspended indefinatly. It looks like the fuel was doctored. His qualifying time was thrown out but He still gets to try to qualify in the duel 125's with a backup car. His car is still impounded and will be sent to Nascar for more tests. Not a good way to start the season with a new car. I doubt if michael knew what was going on.

You might be onto something, I knew they didn't get the spare car out,but hadnt heard about the new paint job on the #00 car.

Re: hot pass (directv)

Does seem a little fishy about not getting his back up out doen't it. Also it will be alot harder for him to qualify in the duals with little to no practice.

Won't matter, his name is on the sign out front. Toyota will most likely not enjoy the bad press generated from this. Back in the day, this would have gotten a fine, wink, and a nod. Darrell was caught with NOS under his intake in the mid 70's and it wasn't the end of the world, but that was a different NASCAR. I'm curious to see Toyota's reaction and hope Mickey and Buffy have put away something for a rainy day.

Re: hot pass (directv)

from what i hear its worth it, i watched the free spot last year and i liked it and im gona watch it sunday but id rather put the money into my truck or my rc cars

and saying nascar sucks is like saying ford sucks or chevy sucks it makes no damn sense and everybody has there own opinion, also to each there own plus if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything at all right?
