Best of Top Ten: Top Ten Ways A Driver Can Guarantee Losing His Ride

Mistie Bibbee · Tuesday December 20, 2005

 

10.  Halfway through a race, stop the car and demand a map.  Let your crew know you think you are lost because you’ve been driving in circles for the last 2 hours. 

9.  Tell NASCAR where they can stick their rule book - on national TV.

8.  Inform the media that your street car (a Yugo) is twice as fast as your race car.

7.  Refuse to use/promote your sponsor because you think it is poor quality.

6.  Set the teams’ goal each week to obtain a 43rd place finish because you feel anything else is just showing off.

5.  Just remember, licking your crew chief is bad.  It is not a sign of affection.   

4.  Hit on the team owner’s wife.

3.  Ask if you can wear pink satin stilettos with your uniform during each race.

2.  Park your car halfway through a race, and refuse to finish it because you had a craving for a hot dog and an ice cream cone.

1.  Hit on your team owner.

 

Do you want the chance to win a free Frontstretch T-Shirt, and are you really good at talking about NASCAR? Well, we have the perfect opportunity for you. Our staff will be giving away a free T-Shirt to the reader who makes the best post in our Frontstretch Forum between now and the end of the season. So, what makes a good post? It’s pretty hard to impress us, but here are some things we are looking for:

Does your post spark passionate reactions from other readers? Are you commenting on meaningful NASCAR-related events? Do your posts have substance? In other words, “Dale Jr. is the best driver ever” or “Danica Patrick is hot” will not cut it.

So go to the Frontstretch Forums, post early, post often, and post well! We’ll announce the winner following the final race of the season at Homestead.
