Marry outside half his race, his daddy is a honkey. This fact is often overlooked by the narrative driven media.

What are you laughing at. A year afterwards Bubba was still playing the race/noose card.

Here’s an article (clips) from Yahoo writeup long afterwards:

quote:

NASCAR’s Bubba Wallace Stands by Discredited ‘Noose’ Incident in New ESPN Documentary Tue, December 14, 2021 at 9:31 PM CST


quote:

And despite the evidence to the contrary, Wallace and his family continue to believe that a noose was placed in Wallace’s garage to send a message. In the documentary, Wallace submits that the fifteen FBI agents sent to investigate got it wrong, offering of the knot, “that took time to do. It’s a noose.”


quote:

His sister, meanwhile, called the investigation “bullsh**,” and insisted that “we’re never going to find out who did it.”


quote:

“Look at the picture, what’s it look like to you? Is that a noose to you?” Wallace asked his interviewer in Fistful of Steel. “You tie your shoes like that?” “It’s so sad that people don’t want to take the time to read the facts, and just make a judgment off of B.S.,” reflected Wallace.

He’s got driving chops but he’s underachieved because he has trouble maintaining consistency, he loses his composure too easily and he hasn’t learned that revenge is a dish best served cold. Someone fricks with you, you get your payback down the road.

The other stuff, I’m not touching.

No, he’s just the token black guy that brings a few more black viewers to the sport every once in a while, so they push his agenda. The noose issue didn’t help the sport, so they’re trying to figure out a way to recover by using him as a pawn in marketing.

Is Bubba Wallace relevant as a contendor in NASCAR or is he just benefitting from his skin color?

He's like the 12th best driver in NASCAR and that's because of the Toyota team he's on. His best chances of winning are in Daytona and Talladega which is why he won the Duel race on Thursday night

I wasn't aware of that. That's awful and would explain the chip he appears to have.

Was Jr ever a real contender? Marketing and talent are two different things.

Out of 351 starts in the Cup, Infinity and Truck Series races combined he has a total of 3 wins.

So no, those aren't contender stats.

Yes.

He finished top-5 in points 3X and was literally a bad finish at Atlanta and a dropped s-bomb in victory lane at Dega from winning the tile in '03. He won 26 Cup races and probably would have won more had he made the move to Hendrick and had Steve Letarte as his CC sooner. Letarte saved his career. He also came close to winning it in '14.

Junior also won 2 Xfinity(Busch back then) Series titles in 98 and 99.
