It takes a lot of knowledge to make a NASCAR NEXTEL Cup race car go fast. Tires, engines, setups and safety all play a part in getting to victory lane. How much do you know about NASCAR race cars and the basic setup terms that you hear the teams talk about each week? Here is a fun quiz to test your knowledge of the NASCAR NEXTEL Cup Race Cars and how to make them go fast.

I’d like to comment on D.W’s calling of the race last weekend. He should not be so obvious on his favortism of Junior. There are other drivers who win races and never have I heard an announcer so excited about someone winning, I will never respect him again and wish they would remove him from broadcasting all togeather, how does he think that makes the other drivers feel.

I would like to comment on D.W. also…..It was an awesome job and Jr. needed to hear some positive thoughts on him…He is an awesome driver and personally I am glad to see him in victory lane again…and I take it that “Sandra” is a fan of someone else…lol…and btw…D.W…….i love your commercials!!! and I believe if you were gonna be predjudice…wouldn’t Mikie be the one?…everyone in my house likes a different driver…thats the beauty of it…and yes….imma Jr. fan ALL the way….but in my home..Jeff Gordan,Smoke,Truex,and our old time favorite Mark Martin are all right up there in the “we love ya” catagory with Dale Jr. So D.W. keep up the good work and continue to make us laugh on Nascar Sunday!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Patty. We all like different drivers at my house too. Dale, Jr is a wonderful guy. He dosen’t make negative comments about other drivers and when he causes a wreck or bumps someone he owns up to it. You don’t hear many of the other drivers do that. I am sure his Dad is looking down and is very proud!

I agree with both Patty and Karen. DW is probably the best NASCAR commentator that both FOX and NBC combined. So what if he was showing favorism to Dale Jr. He even said that Dale Jr was going to win the race.

We LOVE DW at our house. We hate it when NBC calls the race. And I agree that if he was going to show a favvorite, wouldn’t it be Mikey.
