If you could drive the #18 car.....?

Question

For one whole race, with Kyle Busch's car, his pit crew, Cup engine, Alan Gustafson crew chiefing what position will you finish?

Answer 1

Stuck at the starting line.

I can't drive a stick shift!

Answer 2

i would probably total my car on the pace laps before the green flag and be permanently banned from NASCAR.

Answer 3

I'd get a DNF.  =D

Hahaha, that's the only reason I have no burning desire to drive in Nascar, because I'd be a danger to everyone else on the track. It doesn't matter if I have the best equipment, I'd wreck everybody at least twice in one race.

Answer 4

Well if I were being Kyle for a day I would run the car too hard just to show off,wreck anyone who raced me too hard,and crash before the race was over...

Answer 5

first, i'd have to keep gustafson away from the car. no hms crew chiefs are going to steal jgr secrets.  and since i can't stand to be the number two driver on any team, i'll probably settle for 43rd (at least it's not 2 :-).  whether it's because i'm running too slow or that i've hit the wall and am sitting in the garage, i only wish i could drive like those guys.

i did try it once.  i had a little 1989 gold honda prelude and had covered the back with "97" stickers, as it reminded me a little of one of kurt's old sharpie cars.  i had that thing going 130-140 easily, switching lanes, and even doing so in traffic, sometimes the wrong way.

i don't do that anymore as i was given a six-month vacation from freedom for that one...  hey, those flashing lights from the pace car were behind me and i was just trying to beat him and his friends back to the line, just like the old days...  ;-)

Answer 6

i finish first because i got racing in my blood.... and it is petal to the metal all the way to the finish line..... of course i have to take out some other cars along the way.....:-)

Answer 7

43rd but I'd have a blast! BTW Rick and Joe are trading crew chiefs for this race only.

Answer 8

I did some go kart racing when I was young & was pretty successful so I'm thinking I could finish in the top 35 - LOL!

Why would Gustafson be the crew chief & not Steve Addington?

Answer 9

somewere in the back since i have never driven a race car. lol.

Answer 10

43rd place.

I would hit the wall - right after I got done screaming like a little girl and probably p**sing myself!

"NO! STOP THAT! WHY ARE YOU FOLLOWING SO CLOSE?? STOP PUSHING MEEE!!!"

"SLOW DOWN, WOULD YA??"

"AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Answer 11

I would finish last because as soon as I would take the green flag I would put kyles car in the wall! Just joking! I really don't know.

Answer 12

Assuming we were racing at Dover, I think with some practice under my belt before the race and with a great team behind me like JGR, I would get a top 15. But in my mind I would go in thinking I would finish first, otherwise I would just be a field filler.

Like Teresa, I used to race Go Karts as well and got a championship my first season...but never against 42 other go karts lol.

Answer 13

43rd.

I'd probably hit the wall after the green flag flew to start the race. I'd spin the tires, take out a couple cars around me,(depends if I qualified or Kyle did) If Kyle did, I'd take out half the pack, If I did I'd take out who was starting 42 (Waltrip). Then the crew would fix the car, I'd go back out and probably hit the entrance wall to the garages on pit road and call it a day.

I have never driven something like that with that much horse power, the closest thing is my 78 Camaro with a 350 small block.

Answer 14

DNF in the 61st lap when I take out Denny Hamlin just for the fun of it , because I only get to drive one race.

Answer 15

I'd probally be in the wall especially since Kyle's car is always fast, fast, fast!! Or I'd be way in the back driving like an old granny and I'd be on lap # 10 while everyone else was on 50!! LOL!!

Answer 16

Checkers or wreckers, more like wreckers.

Answer 17

r.i.p. Winter Glory, be it me hitting the wall, or stroking out,  I swear I don't think I'd come out of it alive!
