I came back from the kitchen from making myself iced coffee, and there's JPM and Ganassi talking to the press.

Holy cow. I remembered when Jacques couldn't find a ride and considered NASCAR.

Just stunned me.

I'm good with street races (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It was Tony George who didn't want to go road or street racing! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So - where will JPM finish in his first oval race? 10th or better? Top 20? Seems his release is all but done from Mclaren, just waiting on when to turn him loose on the Cup circuit. Looks like he may debut at Michigan in August.

....oh I doubt very much JPM will do well in NASCAR at all....he seems to be VERY primadonna-ish....which will likely hurt him in several ways

1. He will try to do things "his way" rather than go with an open mind and blank page
2. "The boys" will likely take GREAT PLEASURE in knocking him down a peg because of this
3. Chip Ganassi is a man of little patience

He needs to be MORE like Boris....going in with an "aw shucks....hopefully them guys will lend a poor guy like me a hand.." and be all PC and stuff......not JPM style at all......

First race......he finishes 37th...... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

What's the difference between Tony Stewart's personality and Juan Montoya's? (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Tony Stewart is an A$$HAT to the 10th order, no doubt, but at least he would condiscend to talk to you.....I think JPM thinks most people are so much dog crap on the bottom of his shoe......

His attitude is WAY worse than Stewart, and it won't play well with "the boyz" THAT is for sure... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif)

.....gotta admit....even I WANT to see this.....I hope it gives what the NASCAR head office NO DOUBT hopes it gives us.....ANOTHER WWE circus type of "entertainment" and takes the focus off "real" racing..... (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)
