There are NO teammates in Racing!  Period.  End of story!

There are team-MATES on your OWN team. Crew chief, engineer, tire man, gasman, and even the PR guy/gal. People that wear YOUR colors, share YOUR team's winnings and the ups and downs that come with racing 36 times a year.

Jeff Gordon has a team.  And it DOESN’T include Jimmie Johnson!  NOR Dale Jr, Kyle Busch or Casey Mears! Those guys are just OTHER guys employed by the same guy… Mr. Hendrick!

If YOU think anything different, let me once again borrow the wise words of Dean Vernon Wormer from Animal house,

"Fat, Drunk, and STUPID is no way to go through life son!"

The TEAM concept in racing will be the undoing of NASCAR if they aren’t careful.  It’s already diluted Formula 1, NHRA, and what is LEFT of IndyCar & Champ Car.  The only reason Diamond Rick Hendrick acquired the services of Little E, is so HE could make BIG G!  Greenbacks baby!  Die casts, T-shirts and beer coozies that every fanatical race fan south of the Mason Dixon line can get their gloves on!!

Team my ass!!

When World Series Champ, Boston Red Sox Big Papi David Ortiz blasts a ball onto Yawkey way, Kevin Youkilis, Manny Ramirez and Jonathon Papelbon ALL swill expensive champagne, cash playoff checks, and SIGN big ass contract extensions.  When Jimmie beats Jeffy, Jimmie has courvosier, and Jeff snorkels cold duck!

Some team-mate eh??

This is Nuttz on NASCAR.
