Yes, because it causes such a rush, which makes a person hyper, so anger problems excell.
I seen a little bit on a show called 1000 ways to die. A girl at this office drank these energy drinks all the time & she got such an over load that her heart literally exploded.

I thought that was really what the show was all about.

Jeff made stupid move, but Clint deserved it. Bowyer and his dirty racing..

I think Jeff can be a dirty driver if he wants something bad enough. After a stunt he pulled many years ago I really do believe he isn't above taking someone out. It was when Kenny Schrader drove for Hendricks. Jeff was behind Schrader and wanted the spot so he hit Kenny square on and Kenny flip floped at least 3 times and of course that ended his day. Jeff never apologized at least in public and I always thought what a rotten way to treat a team mate.

Check out "Beyond 200." Schrader tells that story. Pretty funny, LOL.

Nana where would I find "Beyond 200"? Is it a book written by Kenny? I'd love to read it. I have the feeling of a sister to Kenny ( I do not know him) but I've always felt he was one of the most honest drivers NASCAR has and was an all around good guy. I never missed his broadcast with Johnny Benson. Those two were a hoot and Allen (Beckwith I think was his name ) was the host.
As for the words "dirty racer" I think each one has a different view on that. Now for what happened between Boyer and Gordon was the fact Jeff thought he'd had enough and made a point that Bowyer if he is smart won't mess around if he is trying to make it to the championship. There was a story about the Martinsville race regarding Hendricks and all the emotion that went with that. Emotions have no business in racing and no one is going to step aside so Henricks racing can make the 200th race win. That is suppose to be the reason all this commotion got started either that or the reporter was full of bull.........

Can't remember the name of the show, it was something like "Week In NASCAR." Allen Bestwick was the host, and he is now on ESPN. That show evolved into Race Hub, and I really miss the original show. AB is the only one I really care for on ESPN.

Yes he made stupid move, but he had emotions and Evernham and Schrader himself had to get on the radio after he was in the infield care center to calm down Jeff.
Yes, young Jeff was dirty driver, but older Jeff isnt. Bowyer was racing dirty with Gordon whole year and I think Jeff had enough..

Thanks Nana for the info. I missed all of that original and didn't know for one thing that Kenny got hurt. All of this happened when our cable didn't have zip for NASCAR and our local paper didn't carry NASCAR stories either.
