Oh and as for the Toyota thing, I don't know about the backlash against that, I am not a part of any NASCAR fora (though I did join the SPEED channel fora after the Indy debacle last year, however I stuck to the F1 forum).

I am actually a proud owner of TWO Toyota Camrys and a member of ToyotaNation, we are nothing but excited about '07 and I am just disappointed that they couldn't scare up anyone better than Michael Waltrip to drive the Camrys...but who knows there are still spots open.

Speaking of Tony Stewart:

One or two years ago he was winning a race going away...but he was having severe stomach cramps. He called for a relief driver and they got Boris Said all suited up and ready to go...it would be a tight fit but hey they needed the points.

Anyway they were waiting for a caution to have enough time to switch drivers (no small feat) and basically as the race wound down Tony all of a sudden stopped complaining about the discomfort and won the race.

In victory lane he declined an interview and immediately rode a golf cart to his motor coach, citing illness.

Basically what happened was he crapped his pants about 3/4 of the way through and won the race. He couldn't very well give a post-race interview with diarrhea draining down his pants and into his shoes so he had to go clean up first.

Name one other sport where the victor shat his pants in the heat of battle.

I went to college in Batesville, AR, hometown of Mark Martin. There's a car of his (likely a replica) outside the McDonald's.

I'm only familiar with fantasy NBA, how does NASCAR work? just pick a group of drivers, go head to head and compare standings at races?

Name a sport where sh1tting your pants is considered impressive

I dunno if it's impressive, cos it's probably his own damn fault for eating MExican the night before.

However, winning an extremely competitive sports event while in extreme physical discomfort is impressive in my book. Sorta like when JOrdan played in teh NBA finals with the flu, stuff like that.

Also, get off this thread if all you want to do is criticize.

It can be played any way you want.

You can draft drivers and start a subset each week, and go head-to-head or total points over the season. NASCAR.com does something like this

You can have a salary cap and same thing. ESPN does this.

In this case all drivers are categorized as A, B, or C. Each week you pick 2,4,and 2 drivers from each group to be on your active roster. You have to pick your roster before quallies. However only 1,2,1 drivers actually "start" each race and you get a tiny bonus if your driver qualifies in teh top 5 or so, and then are awarded points the same as NASCAR points for whatever drivers you start fo rthat race.

The season is 36 races long, and you can only start each driver a maximum on nine times.

The competition is total points over each segment of the season. I think there are three segments.

Is there a way of attaching a MIDI of dueling banjos to a post?
