Don't hate the 48 just because your driver can't catch him!!!!!!?
I'm tired of all the crybabies out there. All whining about Jimmie and Jeff. If you all were such big race fans you would start whining and crying about the driver you like and why they can't catch up.
What do you want Johnson to do? Slow down so yall can catch up? Yeah cuz that would make for some great racing?!?
STOP CRYING AND CATCH UP!!!
For the record, I'm not saying this to the fans of the 24 or 48. They are by far the class of the field right now!

It is so funny how many excuses are on this post. I'm tired of this crap too. We know it's early in the season. These retards just don't wanna give any credit to anyone but their driver. I will be the first one to congratulate any of the other drivers when they win a race. We aren't saying that the season is over and that HMS will win the Championship, we are simply stating the fact that they are on a roll. So give them a little credit and stop making excuses.

They are not the "class of the field." I am so sick and tired of Hendricks fans saying that! Jeff is leading in the points, right now. But, it does not matter who is leading the points after the Martinsville spring race. It matters who is leading the points at the end of the Homestead race. That may, or may not, be Jeff Gordon. We've still got 20 points races until the "Chase for the Cup." And, after that, there are 10 races to decide who is Champion. That may, or may not, be Jimmie Johnson or Jeff Gordon.
As far as whining goes, Jimmie Johnson is the biggest whiner of all NASCAR drivers. Oh, sure, he smiles and gives a great post race interview IF HE WINS! But on days that things don't go exactly his way, he sounds like my 5 year old daughter when I tell her she can't have any cookies right before dinner!
The "class of the field?" I'll give you some "classy" drivers. Jeff Burton. He never whined once last year when he fell off the points lead during the Chase. He bragged about his team, his organization, his fans... and then took responsability upon himself. A great sportsman.
Mark Martin. I'm telling you, he will without a doubt go down as the greatest driver to never win a championship. He should also go down as an awesome competitor and sportsman. A man who has the admiration of fans and fellow racers. There's not a man or woman in the NASCAR organization that would say one bad word against him. That's because he has class.
Kyle Petty. He's not his father. His son was on his way to becoming a better driver than him. But, he has class.
Elliot Sadler. Bobby Labonte. Ward Burton. More "classy" drivers.
Yes, Jeff has four championships and Jimmie now has one. But, they are NOT the class of the field. Stop crying? Sorry, haven't shed a tear. Catch up? Sorry, I don't want to SLOW down.

I think that Jeff deserved that win and you saw how close that finish was he was caught up.. Seriously I mean the only reason people are complaining is that their drivers arent as good as Jimmie and especially Jeff and that the Hendrick Teams have more success then anyone and their drivers aren't as good. Some races yes and some no but their is always going to be something controversial, like who should of won, or why did so and so spin this person out intentionally, or why wasn't this driver docked points for cheating but NASCAR makes the rules and you have to live with what they say but you don't ahve to agree.

There are 43 cars/drivers quailify for a race/
.The media makes a circus to follow a select few.The fans of the sport don't want this circus.Sure Johnson and Gordon are good drivers but neither would have stood a chance with the Greats that started this sport. The drivers such as Darrel Derringer,Curtis Turner,Lee Petty,Buck Baker The Flock Brothers.............
Would have put them in the wall and not blinked.
But the media has presented these drivers as the sports saviors,sorry they will fall.
That's all I have to say about that.

Wow, you're question looks like my answer on the question about "Who else wishes that f*g Gordon would have wrecked...". I agree and have been saying it all year. The whiners going on about Jeff and Jimmie should maybe find someone better to root for so they aren't so bitter all the time. It would suck to be in a funk for days after the race, every week, because your driver can't get the job done. It's like the person that has to tear everybody else down all the time because he can't talk himself up. It's a defense mechanism for really insecure people and you especially see it with children a lot. Just because they have the best owner, equipment and teams doesn't mean they are not at all responsible for their outcomes. EVERY driver at Hendrick is talented, even Mears, just some more so than others. I laugh at the people that say Jimmie can't drive, he just has the best cars and crew chief in NASCAR. He raced motorcycles as a youth and progressed to off road racing on 4 wheels. He has proven himself on EVERY type of track and has represented himself well in the 24 hours of Rolex and that international race of champions thing that he missed this year with his broken arm. Jeff Gordon can drive just about anything with 4 wheels and has proven his ability time and again (though they used to say that it was just because of Evernham and the Rainbow Warrioirs, much like they do with Jimmie now). He's also on the verge of Sr's record of wins for the modern era and the Earnhardt fans are getting nervous. Kyle Busch might have the most talent of them all but he needs to learn to pick his spots better and show more patience during cup races. We are no doubt priveledged to witness an historic time in racing. Rick Hendrick is the winningest owner in all of sports since 1995 (6 championships). Anyone that's EVER driven for him has nothing but good things to say about him. He obviously has a pretty good blueprint for success and everyone else only wishes they could duplicate his system. The haters will keep hating and the whiners will keep whining but don't look for any apologies from Rick or his employees because they are better than you are. Use them for motivation and get better. Worry about what YOU need to do and quit worrying about them all the time. Those that make excuses do so because they can't produce results. The people that always say the Hendrick drivers are the biggest whiners in racing need to take a good long look in the mirror.
For the wanker: Everybody says Smoke this and Smoke that but Tony couldn't catch Jimmie to try to dump him. You know what else, Jimmie is now only 3 wins shy of Stewart's 29 and has a much better winning percentage. Jimmie wins %13.76 of the time (26 wins/189 total races) where Tony wins %10 of the time (29 wins in 290 attempts). Oh yeah, Jimmie has NEVER finished worse than 5th, NEVER missed the chase and they didn't even have to make up a new rule so he could insure getting in it this year. I do respect Tony's driving ability but it's too bad that many of his fans (and Jr's) are so ignorant.

I'm a Jeff Gordon fan and I'm not whining! All the drivers need to catch up to him. ( living drivers that is. no offense to #3 fans!) He is leading in championships and wins. With this said I would like to say that I'm disappointed in Jeff and Steve for hooking Jimmie up with their setup. He stunk at Bristol and at Martinsville until he got the hookup. No crying here, just smiling!!! Go #24!!!

We all know that Chap cheats. He's been caught more than once. And crybaby Jeff was put at the back of the field at Daytona for a set up violation. I was at Atlanta and watched Jimmy put Tony in the wall to pass him, that's a Jeff Gordon like move for sure. WHat a dirty driver. All Hendricks crew chiefs probably cheat. Yeah Jimmys been pretty fast lately, guess Chad's learned how to cover up his cheating.
I can't wait for Gordon and Johnson to get taken out at the same time. Hopefully it'll be by Kyle Bush. That'd be awesome. ha ha ha

True. I'm not a fan of 48, but you have to give credit where credit is due. You can't argue wuth 3 wins in 4 races.....
- Anonymous1 decade ago
I'll stop 'whining and crying' as soon as Johnson & Gordon do.
lol.
And trust me I won't be holding my breath waiting for that to happen.
I think so many people dislike them because of the way they act.
They're always complaining & blaming other people when they wreck.
Heaven forbid they ever take the blame for anything.
That's why I dislike them.
One more thing.....why don't YOU stop whining?!
This question was a waste of my time.
- shaggyLv 41 decade ago
I'll give credit to Gordon... all Johnson did was take Gordon's setup, then block the hell outta him at the end... Everyone knows if it was anyone but his teamate Gordon would have wrecked him, cuz he has proving time and time again that he races like that
