Johnson won 3 races as a rookie (the fewest number of races he's ever won) with a start-up team, 4 his 2nd season, and 8 in his 3rd, ALL pre ricer-wing era, so unless Fudge-Hammer France & his loonies make Johnson run with only 7 spark-plug wires, or a showroom stock Impala, he'll be just fine...

that's true, but Johnson's biggest weapon, Knaus, doesn't seem to have a burning desire to move-on and start & run his-own team: Knaus seems very-content to build cars, think outside the box, calm his driver, and call the race from the pits, atop a tool-box additionally, Johnson himself seems...

Linda Vaughan might be worthy of her-own thread... :chuckle imagine had Katona won Daytona :ugh

... if I'm not-mistaken, they finally ran the 500 on the Tuesday, or Wednesday, that year...

'73 was a bad year @ Indy :cry

at the last NHRA National Event,the studs sheared-off an axle, allowing a slick & wheel to bounce over the wall, into the stands, killing a spectator: imagine what would've happened if the car would've entered the stands :ohnoes while accidents are part of auto racing, this was no 'accident'...

Take all of Edwards' points earned @ Atlanta away from him, and because 156 laps in the pits @ Atlanta wasn't long-enough for him to cool-down, park him the first 157 laps at the next race: if he says word-one, park him thenext complete race, and the first 157 laps of the following race ...
