Official 2011 Nascar thread

  • GoChiefs
    First changes for 2011 have been announced. Hendricks Motorsports wasted no time making moves to get ready for next season.

    Crew Chiefs for 2011 at HMS:
    Mark Martin, Crew Chief: Lance McGrew
    Jeff Gordon; Crew Chief: Alan Gustafson
    Jimmie Johnson; Crew Chief: Chad Knaus
    Dale Earnhardt Jr.; Crew Chief: Steve Letarte

    Big move there. Kinda shocked Letarte is on the move. I don't think Gordon is probably too thrilled about that one. Here's your chance Jr., if you can't win with him, you're not winning with anyone. The Nation won't be able to use the 'Crew Chief' as a scapegoat anymore after next year if Jr. doesn't have any success.

    So, what was Gordons excuse then, this year? :D

    It won't happen in 2011, bit it is strongly rumored that un 2012 they will start rotating the last 10 tracks.

    Also, The 88 and 48 will now share a garage, and team shop.

    Hendricks is pulling out all the stops for Jr. this year. If he doesn't succeed this season, Rick might just say buh-bye to Junebug. Isn't this the last year of his contract at HMS?
  • j_crazy
    are they changing the car at all this year?

    I'm gonna say that for whatever reason, the Chevy's seem to have an advantage in the COT.

    Activision is going to produce the first NASCAR Video Game since EA stopped making them.

    I will be interested to see how it looks and plays compared to the EA version.

    They're changing the nose, getting rid of the splitter, doing a nose similar to the Nationwide cars.

    No, contract goes to the end of 2012, but can be extended beyond that, at the end of 2010 (this year).

    I like the splitter. I think it looks cool.

    Plus, you can use it to cut down someones tire. :D
