jimmy spencer is from somewhere not too far from me in central Pennsylvania..... apparently he used to get banned from all the local dirt tracks for playing dirty..... sounds like nothing has changed and he is just a little ignorant........

Hmmmm maybe someone should tell Lord Spencer that his precious Dodge is owned by Mercedes Benz; Hitler's choice of automobile.
We live in a global market and forunately for us a free market. Jimmy should go take his "cousin-screwing" remarks back to the hollar he crawled out of. along with it's 50's attitude

i like the comment made by schumacher, drive straight turn left...woo woo, i would rather watch hwy traffic than the dinosaur cars of nascar. To support the poor quality of talent of nascar vs other motorsports...did anyone watch the thing on speed vision that pitted drivers from every aspect of racing and they raced each other in rally's and etc. needless to say jeff gorden was invited, and faired very poorly against other drivers such as F1 and etc.
I agree that nascar drivers are better than I am, but I think they do not even remotely compare to the skills that rally, F1 or Indy drivers have. Put a nascar driver in a D1 event or the JGTC....
again just my .02

I've always been very much of this opinion, but watching the 24 hours of Daytona last weekend forced me to alter my perspective a little. Dale Earnhardt, Jr. was teamed with another NASCAR driver (can't remember his name right now) in one of the prototype cars. After 23 hours of racing they were ahead by about 6 laps (~10 minutes). Then a piece of their rear suspension broke. They continued to drive for another half-hour until another part of the suspension failed catastrophically, ending their day. As much as I hate to admit it, those boys could drive.

Does it really matter? It (NASCAR) is the professional wrestling of auto racing. So Jimmy Spencer doesnt like Japanese people or automobiles, doest it really matter?
America is diverse, and if Jimmy Spencer doesn't like it, its his right to complain about it, regardless of the fact that he uses poor judgement.
