Except for the fact that Johnson and Knaus experimented during the summer each year with different setups and a lot of them failed, leading to a lower average finish during those times. Under the old points system they wouldn't have done that, so there's no telling who would really have won.
Even though I cann't say I agree with what UKCats said I've gotta stand up for Kenseth. He has won the California race twice in a row, 10 wins since 03, 3 poles, and made the Chase every year
Make that Back to back and Defending Champion Jimmie Johnson. The real reason I root for the 48 = All those 2nd/3rd/etc finishes before the championship.
Even if the old points system was still used, while mathematically the results in each championship would've been different there's no guarantee the results would've been the same, The Chase causes the drivers to race differently, maybe if we were still on the old system Jimmie would've race harder knowing all points held the entire season.
Jerry Kincaid No I'm no Brad fan in fact I think that South Park episode about NASCAR depicts Brad Keselowski perfectly (Cartman playing Keselowski) but I'm sure you'd feel the same way if you (in Brad's situation) scratched his car and he's thinks the best way to make things even is to put you on your roof. Or in Matt's case, someone tried to make you flinch by throwing a punch and laughs about it Jeff Gordon are you listening? take out Edwards next year and I personally will forgive you for being a crybaby.
keslowski bumped Carl earlier in the Atlanta race causing him to crash wasn't payback from Talladega...But it probably came across Carl's mind. Let's see who else Brad crashes before the year is up.
Thats Right Baby!!! 4 In A Row! Also If Alot of These Drivers Were As Talented As The Hendricks Team They would Know How To Handle The Car In Which Hendricks Helps Build. He Also Sells Parts To Other Teams.
Why is everybody hating on Jimmie? Because he is winning? Last time i checked, NASCAR drivers drove in NASCAR to win. Nobody is going to go out there and say "I won the last race, so somebody else can win now".
i agree not all the beer throwers are dale jr fans. i dont like that you assume it was when you really dont know.. it coulda been but also may not have been.
@NissanTy umm, did you watch Atlanta this year???? edwards is a good guy but when you piss him off, (keslowski didnt even do anything to him) he WILL get you back. he'll get you back good.
There was no way they were joking. Did you see Matt's reaction? It was kind of funny, but he looked scared. Then Carl had a belated smile, probably for the cameras. Either way, he's a good driver. His temper seems to have cooled off a bit by now, anyway.
Ive still lost alot of respect for Carl Edwards this time.This is the second time he has showed his little angered emotions. Maybe Jack Rouch needs to send Carl to some anger management classes. Matt Kenseth is one of most liked & classiest drivers in NASCAR. Nobody f**ks with my boy MattKenseth !!! GO MATT GO #17 !!!!
The Bonus Feature was GREAT !!! The arguments between Jeff & Jimmie so far this year have been good !! Jeff needs to knock JJ back into reality !! YOU TUBE won't even let me edit my username !! I chose this one several years ago when JJ was my #2 Driver... NOW, I always hope he blows a motor; a transmission, spins out & hits the wall; anything to take him out of the race !! I don't have a problem with Junior or Mark but the #48, I HATE !!!
I agree totally!If you dont have a talented driver, then you cant win. Crew Chiefs dont win races, drivers win. A crew Chief is on the track to help make in race decisions. I.E. To pit or not to pit. how much fuel is needed to finish a race etc... LOWES PRIDE BABY!!!!!
Jimmy Johnson - the Sebastian Vettel of Nascar. Sebastian Vettel - the Jimmy Johnson of F1. I hope for a change in 2014: Tony Stewart or Brad Keselowski as Sprint cup champ and Raikkonen or Hulkenberg for F1 WDC! Will Power as Indycar champ.
@wes3tomcat Yeah I get what ur saying but, Jimmie goes out there every week to win like everybody else. He wins championships because he truly is the best. It makes other drivers work harder to win against him.
nice shot to who ever nailed the 48, although they have good aim, the downside is it was a waste of beer (even though it was probably shit beer like Bud or some other yellow fizzy crap)
@JeffGordon221 yea, so in a way Jeff Gordon created this monster that basically has kept Jeff from winning the 7-8 titles everyone thought he would win! Of course, we all know under the old points system that determined the best driver for an ENTIRE SEASON rewarding consistency and talent on ALL the tracks, Jeff would have 6 Titles at this pint and JJ only 1. That is FACT.
Sounds like you're the one hatin' here... equipment really only goes so far buddy, Dale Earnhardt Jr can tell you that. He's at Hendrick's now and he still sucks even worse than his DEI days. Martin's in his first year with Hendrick and he's already got 2 wins. Jeff Gordon and Jimmie Johnson are two of the best drivers NASCAR has ever seen... same with Kyle Busch. This is a new era, and the drivers you see are going to be a lot different. And yeah, I'd love to see Martin win this year too.
@gokb18 i think edwards is one of those guys that acts tough and holds his head up high all the time, but if you seriously confront him about something he'll back down in a snap. just my opinion though...
in a way carl was pissed but i didn't think he wanted to show is rage on camera so i think he played it off. look at matt's face near the end of the conversation and he looked scared and pissed at the same time...i DO NOT think carl was playing around, and it sucks because im a huge fan of them both and all of roush/fenway racing. the beer can thrown at jimmie at the end was PRICELESS HAHA, hes a good guy but im tired of hearing about him and gordon all the fucking time.
Didnt say he couldn't win without cheating.... 5 championships don't just fall out the sky. Just stating the fact that they have been caught so many times. Makes one wonder if they do in fact cheat more than what is known....
o all of u quit being jealus about gordon winning so damn much in the pass and actually being the only one with balls to race dale sr. the guy has never said anything bad about drivers, he's faithful to his family and fans..so tell me whats the big deal with him
living in an idiotic dream. Jimmie was playing it safe in the regular season that's why you think he doesn't deserve the freaking 5 titles. Here is one big proof, remember the all star race 2012? jimmie won the first segment and after that he kept his car clean for the last segment and o yeah he won it.
@SuperCrudedude How is Brad at fault at Atlanta when Carl is the one who WASNT CLEAR to come down...Brad was there low & Carl was in the middle & just decided he wanted the spot...if your not clear then why come down on someone..Carl should have held his line in the middle & he might would have finished...theres no was in hell its Brads fault at all...you need to go back & watch the replay of it...Im sure it wont change your opinion ....Edwards causes his own problems.
Carl Edwards might be cut, but I dont care. One punch will knock that fool out. J.P. Montoya would stomp this fool. Hell, Michael would stomp him. Hes gunna backflip on his head one day
legend has it the guy that threw the beer went on to play quarterback for some division 2 school! 💪🏈🎯
Looks like Matt and Carl are going to be teammates again! LOL!
That was one hell of a throw with the beer can.
"I don't know if they where teasing or not" Could anyone else NOT see that smile on Carl's face?
Except for the fact that Johnson and Knaus experimented during the summer each year with different setups and a lot of them failed, leading to a lower average finish during those times. Under the old points system they wouldn't have done that, so there's no telling who would really have won.
i see the smile everytime i watch a video of them fighting.
camo cargo shorts and a metal mulisha shirt?
C'mon man
Even though I cann't say I agree with what UKCats said I've gotta stand up for Kenseth. He has won the California race twice in a row, 10 wins since 03, 3 poles, and made the Chase every year
Gotta admit, that fan had some good aim lol
Brilliantly made video!
AWESOME SHOT!
Team mates fighting +Jimmie Johnson getting hit with a beer can + ZZ Top = WIN
lol i find it humorous Jimmy Spencer talkin bout "addressing the issue"
Yeah, he should've thrown something bigger :)
I think the guy who tossed the SteveWeiser wanted to christen the greatest driver of all times vehicle personally!
Jr definately is kicking Gordons ass but Kyle busch is kicking the shit out of both of them and he's got a toyota lmao! That's fucking priceless!
There were some hands on top of each other...okay Bob Dillner! LOL
1:43-Exhibit A: You hate who you envy.
I agree; reminds me of seeing Jeff Gordon win all those Sears Point races between 1998-2000. I know I sure felt like throwing something. :)
Make that Back to back and Defending Champion Jimmie Johnson.
The real reason I root for the 48 = All those 2nd/3rd/etc finishes before the championship.
You sir. Are my hero.
0:11 2 for flenching XD
true.... cookie-cutter tracks are all about aerodynamics, and Chad Knaus knows how to set up an awesome car at those tracks
ok. that thrown beer can had to be a perfect shot! LOL X)
Direct hit! XD
Even if the old points system was still used, while mathematically the results in each championship would've been different there's no guarantee the results would've been the same, The Chase causes the drivers to race differently, maybe if we were still on the old system Jimmie would've race harder knowing all points held the entire season.
Carl seems like an absolute psycho sometimes and I would die laughing if someone took out or put him in the wall this year
you must be a brad fan
Jerry Kincaid
No I'm no Brad fan in fact I think that South Park episode about NASCAR depicts Brad Keselowski perfectly (Cartman playing Keselowski) but I'm sure you'd feel the same way if you (in Brad's situation) scratched his car and he's thinks the best way to make things even is to put you on your roof.
Or in Matt's case, someone tried to make you flinch by throwing a punch and laughs about it
Jeff Gordon are you listening? take out Edwards next year and I personally will forgive you for being a crybaby.
"scratched his car" you mean sent him flying upside down into a catchfence while moving over 190 miles per hour?
Toby Stephenson oh, so he’s not the nicest guy in nascar?
Nice touch at the end!
keslowski bumped Carl earlier in the Atlanta race causing him to crash wasn't payback from Talladega...But it probably came across Carl's mind. Let's see who else Brad crashes before the year is up.
damn, hes got a good arm!
its funny that most of this clip is Carl vs Matt, but most of the comments are about jimmie Johnson
Go Kenseth!
I was right in front of Johnson when his car got pelted with that beer can.
Thats Right Baby!!! 4 In A Row! Also If Alot of These Drivers Were As Talented As The Hendricks Team They would Know How To Handle The Car In Which Hendricks Helps Build. He Also Sells Parts To Other Teams.
spot on
The best part was the beer hitting Johnson.
1:41 nice shot!
i like how the cops stopped to watch. lol
Oh I had no idea that football was the same as NASCAR, had no idea that all the teams are on the field at the same time at every game.
Raikkonen And Harvick FTW
at least carl has a personality
Why is everybody hating on Jimmie? Because he is winning? Last time i checked, NASCAR drivers drove in NASCAR to win. Nobody is going to go out there and say "I won the last race, so somebody else can win now".
CARL IS SMILING
someone has good aim
hendrick has the bestest drivers in nascar
you got that right
i agree not all the beer throwers are dale jr fans. i dont like that you assume it was when you really dont know.. it coulda been but also may not have been.
They did the beer can to Busch at Dover this year, seeing it in person was great. Both Johnson and Busch are cry babys
Direct hit!
14 Owns Hendrick's ROFLZ
Senior said he would've retired in 2002 anyways
@NissanTy umm, did you watch Atlanta this year???? edwards is a good guy but when you piss him off, (keslowski didnt even do anything to him) he WILL get you back. he'll get you back good.
And this is why The 48 has 3 titles in 3 years. And the fan doesnt!
Good Lord, whoever threw that beer unto Jimmie's car has an arm, but it's still idiotic to do.
Yeah the chase is SHIIIIITITTTT
There was no way they were joking. Did you see Matt's reaction? It was kind of funny, but he looked scared. Then Carl had a belated smile, probably for the cameras.
Either way, he's a good driver. His temper seems to have cooled off a bit by now, anyway.
@floridacrackerish yup yup! Lowes pride since 2002! always had faith in him
you see 1:49, that was awesome.
awweman, someone wasted a beer
nice throw
Ive still lost alot of respect for Carl Edwards this time.This is the second time he has showed his little angered emotions. Maybe Jack Rouch needs to send Carl to some anger management classes. Matt Kenseth is one of most liked & classiest drivers in NASCAR. Nobody f**ks with my boy MattKenseth !!! GO MATT GO #17 !!!!
And now Carl would be a 2x champ.
@Sk8BoardTrucker i bawled my eyes out wen Dale Sr. died... and i was 19 at the time
The Bonus Feature was GREAT !!! The arguments between Jeff & Jimmie so far this year have been good !! Jeff needs to knock JJ back into reality !! YOU TUBE won't even let me edit my username !! I chose this one several years ago when JJ was my #2 Driver... NOW, I always hope he blows a motor; a transmission, spins out & hits the wall; anything to take him out of the race !! I don't have a problem with Junior or Mark but the #48, I HATE !!!
did they ever find out why carl and matt were fighting that day?
Looks like Cousin Carl has been hitting the "flaxseed oil" Hey, Brian France maybe it's time to give "roid rage" Edwards a pee test.
hey bigbad8 if ur gonna say jr is better then jeff ur wrong dude how many wins and champs does jr have compared to jeff
I agree totally!If you dont have a talented driver, then you cant win. Crew Chiefs dont win races, drivers win. A crew Chief is on the track to help make in race decisions. I.E. To pit or not to pit. how much fuel is needed to finish a race etc...
LOWES PRIDE BABY!!!!!

no, i believe it was jimmie johnson tht won it in 08'
What the hell is up with jimmy spencers hair?
@JeffGordon221 yea, so in a way Jeff Gordon created this monster that basically has kept Jeff from winning the 7-8 titles everyone thought he would win!

Jimmie johnson deserve the beer can because martinsville is jeff gordon track, but jeff gordon will win the championship anyway.
@gokb18 i think edwards is one of those guys that acts tough and holds his head up high all the time, but if you seriously confront him about something he'll back down in a snap. just my opinion though...

Report: After the Daytona Bud Shootout which Junior won, claims of Hendrick cheating is re-ignited.
Didnt say he couldn't win without cheating.... 5 championships don't just fall out the sky. Just stating the fact that they have been caught so many times. Makes one wonder if they do in fact cheat more than what is known....
of course he gets hit with a BEER CAN
nice shot man-filter song
lol look at the cops at 0:38 xD
o all of u quit being jealus about gordon winning so damn much in the pass and actually being the only one with balls to race dale sr. the guy has never said anything bad about drivers, he's faithful to his family and fans..so tell me whats the big deal with him
Carl is a badass! JR Sucks, Carl's gonna be 2011 Champ, Get over it!!!
living in an idiotic dream. Jimmie was playing it safe in the regular season that's why you think he doesn't deserve the freaking 5 titles. Here is one big proof, remember the all star race 2012? jimmie won the first segment and after that he kept his car clean for the last segment and o yeah he won it.
@Mustangman675 haha me too!
I agree in every way. This point system stinks.
lol @0:33 the police or seciruty people were about to come!
The point was still valid however.
Yeah but Martin Did get crapped out of a few titles because of bad luck.
And i thought Tony Stewart was an idiot! Turns out there is a bigger one right here!
@floridacrackerish i bet u all love the new spoiler dont ya?
@SuperCrudedude How is Brad at fault at Atlanta when Carl is the one who WASNT CLEAR to come down...Brad was there low & Carl was in the middle & just decided he wanted the spot...if your not clear then why come down on someone..Carl should have held his line in the middle & he might would have finished...theres no was in hell its Brads fault at all...you need to go back & watch the replay of it...Im sure it wont change your opinion ....Edwards causes his own problems.
johnson got canned lol
man nice aim
Is that a dead animal on Jimmy Spencer's head?
What's the big deal? So Edwards faked a punch... so what. Looks like he and Matt get along fine now.
Carl Edwards might be cut, but I dont care. One punch will knock that fool out. J.P. Montoya would stomp this fool. Hell, Michael would stomp him. Hes gunna backflip on his head one day
lol carl edwards is wearing a john cena outfit, btw matt kenseth is #1
09 would be Tony Stewart not Jimmie Johnson and 06 would be Matt Kenseth or Jeff Burton
