What can the Jr. Haters do now?

they're going to make up stuff saying JR cheated somehow, looks like a couple already answered on this question, im not sure if anybody bumped JR but if 00 did whats the big deal, people did that all day, restrictor plate racing if your not hooked up with anybody your going backwards so bumping is all its about at Daytona and Dega so nice try by "Caribou "QUIT" Barbie" but not a good argument, and then "JimBob" is talking about last year, well this is a new year and JR might have been in the 20s in that race last year but he could have had a bad handling car, and where was the other Hendrick cars (including 14 and 39) in this race then? closest behind JR was Mark Martin in 12th, it amazes me that people still want to hate and will always find a way to hate, maybe some people are mad that JR isn't bad like they want to think

smileyboy i mean smileyman - what would real racing be? 400-500 miles of 0 crashes or wrecks? just going and going with nothing happening at all? i guess you liked last season when they said you couldn't go below the yellow line, no bump drafting and the smaller plates, if you say its not real racing only because of the plates then maybe its because of safety, they'd easily get over 200 maybe 210 mph without something slowing the cars down, the plates alone split the HP in half from 800+ all the way down to 400+, even only 400+ HP they can still go 190 HP, so to me its real racing, if you don't like those tracks then don't watch the races on those tracks, simple as that

Yeah Dale Earnhardt Jr. was very impressive today and most of the day he kept his car consistent in the top 15, top 20, around 16th place and had a loose car. He went from 10th to second in that green/white/checkered finish. That was a good performance for him so he could build up some momentum in the Auto Club 500 next week, and for the rest of the season. If he keeps racing like this he could get into the Chase and contend for the championship. The Jr. haters would probably still hate on him and call him overrated though.

You're right about the last sentence in regards to plate racing. Junior is going to need to show more consistency on the 1.5 mile tracks if he wants to shake off the criticism.

It'll be interesting seeing who Rick Hendrick will choose to be the odd driver out this season (poor cars, no help on the track, etc). It looks like he's going to have to pick between his four-time champions.

So far so good but there are 35 races left in the season lol. I was so damn excited when he came from 10th to about 4th with 1 lap to go and i just almost fainted lol. Ofcourse haters will still hate cause thats what they do. I just hope him and his team can be consistent this year cause everything seems to go wrong every year for junebug. This should give him and his team the confidence they need for the start of the season.

I'm a Jeff Gordon fan, and actually wouldn't have minded if Jr. would have won. Jr. is entering this season with a much better attitude and I hope he can find some success this year.

They are just going to hate him more, and if he wins a couple races this yr they will go totally nuts with hate. I ignore them.. One thing for sure today, he did not have the best car, but to see him drive like his dad from 10th to 2nd, yes he had a good bump from Reuti, but 2 more laps maybe he would have won... Great race today for Jamie Mcmurray and Dale Jr.. and CHEVY.

Go Dale Jr..Bring it on in 2010

One word: Respect. You've got to respect someone who can do that. You've got to respect a guy who went through so much crap from the media and the fans and the had the debacle he did in '09, and to come back from what really wasn't a very good run and go from 10th to 2nd in one lap is one of the most respectable things I've ever seen.

That will just make them hate him more. If he wins the Championship they'll just say he cheated. They won't stop until they are too old to use a computer I guess.

You do realize questions of this nature only add fuel to the fire, right?

Just sayin'..this is going to bring the "haters" out in full force, way to go with that!!

I give props where props are due, Jr. did good.
