Congrats to Jimmy Johnson

Just got back from Charlotte and wanted to congratulate Jimmy on his Rain shortened win (he would have won anyways). He had the fastest car all week. Coming from the last row to win proved this. Also want to congratulate Matt Kenseth on his Busch win and Frank Kimmel on his ARCA victory. Good job fellas.

I agree,Jimmie Johnson IMO would have probabaly won the 600(414) anyway,but We'll never know for sure,as so many bad/weird things can happen so quickly in any given race to change the outcomes and or fortunes for different drivers,JMO!Matt Kenseth & Bobby Labonte were IMO the only real competition on the track that might have pulled it out,but I do think that Jimmie(barring any unforseen mishaps)would have won it in the end anyway!JMO!

Too bad that Jimmy can't win a race & NOT get a fine for illegal parts.

Both Charlotte races that he won- He & His crew Chief was fined for illegal parts. Would be nice if he won & didn't have any fines that make peoples eyebrows raise & minds think....Hmmmmmmm......

I disagree a "little" bit. Anything can happen on a track and usually does. Kenseth and Labonte and a few others had a good chance of winning. Cut tire, gas problem, lose control, get punted, etc. Would have liked to see them finish the race. My pick would have been Kenseth.

Now 24T- Would I do that???

No- I would say that about anybody who has won the last 2 races & both times something was illegal. Now- I am NOT saying that these infractions were BIG enough to make him win/

Now I have heard that cooling the fuel DOES get an advantage. But I am assuming by the fine amount- that it was more or less a cooling device for the driver. They better not be messing with coolants & fuels- many of the freons are deadly if burned.

Gheesh Thunder...... You make it sound like I post all my opinions in a anti Jeffiee fashion.

I leave that to the Ozzieman.

It really IS too bad that he can't win with out having illegal parts found. Maybe someday they will learn. A win without controversy is a real WIN.
