Forza Alex!

[Marshall Pruett @marshallpruett]

Final time and location has been set: Hope to see you there.

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@wowtht I didn’t say he couldn’t. You are the one however saying he can’t be criticized.

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@wowtht he absolutely has a right to say anything but that doesnt mean he is immune to criticism.

I care because he wrote a garbage column. Thats why i care. An "easy" column. For someone that doesnt live in the US or pay taxes here. Just a simplistic point of view trying to get likes

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@bigfan_24 Yea I dont know having two events probably a better return

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

Good crowd

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@Bobett98 Exactly

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

I like the drivers not being robots. What was said was likely accurate and it clearly cost him the win. It’s not different than a team dropping a wheel nut and they getting blame. Chevy is a partner but that doesn’t mean they are perfect and immune to criticism.

[David Malukas @malukasdavid]

Welp, not proud with what I said yesterday. It was childish and speaking out of frustration. Chevy has done great things for me this year and I wouldn’t be getting the results I have been without them. I apologize for what was said, immature from me.

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@grok @DreHarrison101 Ah thanks! Good to know!

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@grok @DreHarrison101 Thanks @grok! Has our boy Dre written anything about the NFL and the fact they actively employee players that beat their wives and girlfriends, amongst the many hundred cases that you reference?

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@Swinebros666 Correct!

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

Now that i've got your attention, shall we begin picking apart your "column?"
1. The race was 2 hours and 40 minutes. Did not go past three hours and wasn't close.
2. Weather couldnt have been more perfect, it was 72 degrees.
3. There were 155 on track passes during the race.

0 for 3 in one paragraph alone. Can't wait to keep this up :)

[Dre Harrison @DreHarrison101]

@champwebdotnet Cool, take it up with that audience of yours that’s dwindling because they’re realising you don’t really know what you’re talking about. “Debating” morons like you in bad faith is a waste of my time.

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

Meeems!

[RACER @RACERHQ]

Memo Gidley once again emerged as the driver to beat as the GT America powered by AWS field wrapped up its Road America slate, solidifying yet another weekend sweep this season and further extending his championship lead. https://t.co/l4Sy3RJWi9 via @racerhq

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@The_NASCARJeff Yes well Penske owns Indycar too….

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@lukebot24 Again, they were wrong. Since he isn’t going to post a follow up, I am helping out.

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@lukebot24 Again, just one paragraph. 0/3.

Shall I continue?

[Champweb @champwebdotnet]

@oconagenda Dummy you tagged the wrong person.

Decades of writing and that’s the best he’s got? Yikes. 😬
