Will Jr...?

Question

Break his losing streak before 100 races or will he not win for another 25 races? I say it goes on to about 105-110.

this is a serious question, not being a hater, i accually do not mind the guy.

Answer 1

I think Jr nation left for the day.

My answer is no.  He'll win one.

Answer 2

I think he will win in Daytona in July of this year, so I don't think it will reach 100 races. I hope he wins before that race and then wins that race as well, but I definitely think he will win in Daytona this July.

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

his losing streak will be a long time. it looks like hendrick has realized he's not the greatest thing ever. i think he gave johnson and gordon great cars this week, while giving jr the 3rd best in the stable and look how well johnson and gordon are doing. finnally it looks like hendrick can win more if they keep giving those 2 the best equipment instead of making jr out ot be something hes not (the best)

Answer 5

Yes, I agree with another answer...Daytona if not before.

However, to the person who said that Hendrick gave him bad equipment this week and gave the good stuff to Gordon and Johnson - seriously??

Do you even know what the standings in points are?  And in the end, that is what they are racing for??

Because Dale is (was, sadly) in 3rd place.  Johnson in 9th and Gordon in 10th.  

Stats

Jr - 1 Pole, 0 Win, 5 Top 5, 9 Top 10, 0 DNF, 0 No Finish, 1 Race 1 lap down, 1 Race 47 Laps down

Johnson - 1 Pole, 1 Win, 4 Top 5, 4 Top 10, 2 DNF, 3 Races 1 lap down, 1 race 2 laps down

Gordon, 2 Poles, 0 Win, 5 Top 5, 6 Top 10, 3 DNF, 1 Race 1 lap down

(Based on how I am reading them...I believe I am right!)

Junior's stats show he has a much better season than the other two.  So your comments just don't make any sense what-so-ever to me!

Answer 6

I think he will get one this year.  He has finished up front every race this year except when he was caught up in wrecks that weren't his fault.

Answer 7

He will win before 100.  I think he will win the July race in Daytona.

Go Dale Jr & Hms

Answer 8

i really think he's gonna win at talladega. anything can happen there though so we'll see.

Answer 9

When he announced he was going to Hendrick last season, everyone said that if he can't win over there this year that he's not that good. Well he has the best equipment and it's the beginning of June and I'm just counting down the days to the end of the season...we'll see what happens.

Answer 10

I hope he wins one soon !

Answer 11

i think he will win on 100

Answer 12

Bestanswer, you have a great point there. I saw many comment that "If Junebug can't win at Hendrick he can't win" etc. etc. The season is getting along, what will be the official excuse if he remains winless this season?

Answer 13

When did Earnhardt Jr. become the biggest sympathy case of the Sprint Cup Series?

In a strange way, Earnhardt Jr. has seemingly become everything his late father wasn't in racing. You can blame him for that in some respects and in some ways you really can't fault him.

Earnhardt Jr. fits much more the mold of the average modern day Sprint Cup Series driver than his father ever did. Like so many of his contemporaries in the Sprint Cup Series today Junior seems much more marketing monster than hard nosed racer.

But it's a fan base, hands down the most passionate and defensive in the sport, that has become somewhat pathetic in their somber whininess. A fact that suddenly makes Earnhardt seem much more like sympathetic sap than ultra successful competitor.

Yes, Earnhardt Jr. might be the most intimidating force in motorsports marketing today, but the checkered flag doesn't go to the guy who cashes the biggest endorsement checks. Busch is proving that week after week this season.

His losing streak can be very long. Let's just try not to think about it.

Answer 14

He will get several by the end of the year and before he hits 100.

Answer 15

It is a shame the losing streak continues-- I think he will win 1 before he loses 100 straight!!!!!
