What ever happened to the people who said he would be good at Nascar and Nationwide Series? Only a few of us were saying he didnt have a chance at succeeding if I remember right. This should show you how touch NASCAR really is. He couldnt even sniff the mini tour.

I don't recall him being too bad? Just a lot of bad luck and too high of expectations for him. He started up front a lot, just couldn't finish high.

Big difference in driving without anyone around and driving in traffic at those speeds.

I know he got one pole, but in the NNS if you are on a good team like he was, you only have to compete with about ten other cars.


I wish he was still racing in NASCAR, he got people to watch that normally didn't

It's probably hard to drive with balls as big as his.

That crazy fricker bailed out of a plane without a chute........along with a bunch of other crazy shite.

Nothing like bashing a guy on the way out who brought new fans to NASCAR.

Common sense says when a highly liked athlete from one sport decides to try another one, he'll bring along some fans. I'm not going to bother to look up the Nielson ratings or anything like that.

You just come off as petty and I told you so-ish over a subject 99.99% of the board/sport couldn't care about.

Common sense? NASCAR had a huge following already. Not sure the ratings changed to see him except maybe for his first race. And he sucked. Lol
