    Is it still whining if you are right about what you are whining about?

    If he says the track was chit, and it was chit, that isn't quite the same as whining.

    With that being said, I cannot stand guys complaining about lapped cars.

      doesn't someone who has won 800+ times have the right to be a voice that tracks/promoters better listen to???

        Right. I've heard Moyer complain about track conditions numerous times. I've also heard drivers from the same race complain about it too. Yet, there is a 6 page thread about Moyers comment and nothing on what the other guys said.

        Chris Brown threw Lucas Oil Speedway under the bus 2 weeks ago and not a word was mentioned on here.

        So when I say the what other drivers say go unnoticed.... This is exactly what I mean.

          Good points, Zach. You must be talking about the leaders that expect a red carpet pull to the side, even if running for position.

              Not really. Why should that give him the right to dictate track prep and conditions to his favor? too much cushion or traction and I'll WAAAAAAAA!!!!

You can't back up anything! I really like the one you mentioned where he complains about tracks being too fast. 800+ wins and he's afraid of speed? Really? Good Lord GearHead it's time for you to change gears-I recommend a quick change for you ASAP!
                It's not at all about being worried about speed. In reality, it's the fact that he knows that his slick track advantages will be taken away and that he will have to actually race the whole field including the locals. Sorry but there were plenty of rumors about special tires in the past.

                  You are correct, I agree 100%.

                                Depends how you look at it (your lead post). If your a fan, yes. If your not, Great. No fan on this end. Never am, Never will be. JMHO
                                I know for a fact last year before Knoxville he decided to go practice at a track about 30 minutes away. And unload his car to load it back up, when Matt Furman wrecked his car. He said the track was to fast!!!! I was jumping for joy when he said he was retiring. And to see him at Eldora again just pisses me off. I know 800 wins is a lot, but how many of them 800 did he Cherry Pick?
