    That is kinda like saying you would have won Eldora if all those other teams stayed home, it didnt happen. You dont have to believe me, but he will be on the chopping block if he doesnt perform in 2016. Time will show you that.

      Everybody has their opinion, but he is young, marketable, can drive, a racial minority (even though most people don't realize it).......He'll be in Nascar as long as he wants to be.

      You still never answered my question as to who you are a fan of?

        Maybe I should pose the question this way.....If Larson is a bum, who are you going to put in the seat that runs better?

        My answer: Nobody.

        What is yours?

          In the closing laps he was running down the leader like he was stopped and already drove right around bush ... How do to figure that's like saying if no other cars came he would have won ? If there was a legit caution I wouldn't even mention it. It was a typical NASCAR phantom caution that has driven real fans away in droves. Larson is a legit talent period

            I dont believe I ever said that. I guess you could check with Rico. I said he was a bust as he is. He isnt the first to fail in NASCAR after being so good in other type cars.

              You have zero way of knowing he was going win as the race wasnt over. Was he fast? Yes. But he could have had a millions go wrong other than a caution. Including driving into the fence at any second. On equal and new tires he was a non factor. He is a legit talent in a sprint car. He has shown nothing in a cup car. The caution was legit. It was not for the water bottle they showed on TV. It was for the crush panel laying on the track...

                Hey fart. I don't mean to speak for zach but I think he was saying that he meant to insult you and he was wanting to know who among the NASCAR drivers you are a fan of. I'm curious who you are a fan of. Come on fart, clear the air..................again! LOL

                  I'd much rather be a bust in nascar than to be some sh!t stirring keyboard warrior.

                  I don't think he's a bust.....I just think they moved him up too quick.

                    A bust at 23 years old. OK.

                      10 top 5 , 27 top 10's in his first 75 cup races and he's 23 ....what a bust.... I think most of you clowns would bust a nutt in your pants over the chance to smolder his tip .... When was that 42 car some dominate piece that wins regularly ??

                        I was going to bring up the fact that Larson did more in a year than Montoya did in what 5-6 years? But considering Montoya DID win a road-course race I figured Oldfart would shut that one down quick,

                          If Larson is a bust, I don't even know if there is a word in the English language to describe Danica. The only one I can think of is "Marketing"

                            I can think of another, "eye candy".
                            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                              Was wondering how long it would take Litey to chime in.

                                I wouldn't consider him a bust seeings as it is the 42 CG car. If he was with Penske, Hendrick, JGR, yeah. He's running from what I gather on here pretty consistent, but no wins. If Ganassi is still doing his own cup stuff with no insight from the top cup teams, I don't see it ever being a top cup ride. Unless he steals some engineers etc from Hendrick, Penske, etc. Hope he gets his shot at Indy, and wins a cup race. He has talent no doubt, team and chemistry mean a ton though.
