Days of nothing new being reported for Ryans team directly

there is proof of how racer is here to start trouble, calling people nutcases, takes one to know one.

So now some here are going to trash Danica--GET a LIFE--she brings more sponsor money to SHR or she will if she goes FT then all of SHR together> The few fanatics here know nothing about what Ryan needs, just whinners and complainers, and no-one is listening to the very few of you anyway. Just saw an interview with Ryan on speed and he sounded and looked happy so get over your negative cry baby attitudes and if all you can do is post whiny complaints then maybe several should leave here and go buy a crying towel for sure. BTW--I dont have to be a Nascar expert to see nutcase fanatics like some of you here.

I cant wait for the races when Danica has better results then Ryan, good grief, then you will have something to complain about even more--get ready.

Does Tony S read these "trash everyone but Ryan" threads, as he should, and Ryan should also. Maybe him posting saying everything is fine will shut you cry--babys up once and for all. :roll

Ok so let me get this straight lmao. You call yourself Racer1 let me teach you a little bit about racing then. If you race for a living and you dont improve year after year then why compete? I guess you could be like Racer1 and come back year after year and complain about Ryan fans because you have nothing better to do with your time other then trying to tell us how good Danica will be on a Ryan blog yes thats a Ryan blog. Why dont you go to Danicas side and post? Oh and put her in a pack of 43 cup cars and we will see how well she does. Then we will see how fast she is and just how well she can drive. You will be amased at the outcome im sure not whinning just stating a fact. I am not one to trash anyone here but racing is a competitive sport thats what you do is try to be the best. Improvement is a nessesary evil if you cant your left behind. So do us all a favor Racer1 get yourself a life like you tell us and talk your nonsense on Danicas side!!!! Thats why the site is set up like this. That way there you can teach everyone about Racing and how well Danica will do.....CLASS DISMISSED!!

as a ryan fan i can be vocal about the CC if i want, i know a good share about nascar, i know he doesnt have a CC that benefits him, if anything he makes ryan's job harder, and if ryan is content with that, then fine, that means he is content bein a mid-packer, and i dont believe that is the case, its a fact, tony gets what he wants, and all of the sudden tony knows the reason ryan doesnt win is because he "thinks too much." since when did tony become a sports psychologist? i long for the day when ryan leaves SHR........

"You call yourself Racer1 let me teach you a little bit about racing then. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"

LMAO over your lame remarks as you cant teach anything except how to rant over nothing repeatedly like others here. Theres one little point you missed commenting if Ryan doesnt win alot something is wrong--thats wrong--as the something wrong may very well just be the driver--end of my lesson for you.

BTW as someone said they cant wait till Ryan leaves SHR--be carefull what you wish for as I said earlier. A driver who doesnt win much has little options these days. Give Ryan credit as he's alot better off then you ranters realise as he isnt the one complaining, and i'll bet he's happy where he is, as its alot better then where he could end up if he leaves. Think about that.

let me know when danica wins a race, then talk, your a classless jerk, only reason danica got a ride is cus she has a pretty face, she sure as #### didnt set the IRL on fire, what was she top twenty at best last year, she is a joke and so are you to even compare her to ryan.

"-------------------------------------------- what was she top twenty at best last year, she is a joke and so are you to even compare her to ryan."

Grow up and learn the facts before you post. Danica finished 6 of her 7 yrs of Indycar top 10 or better in season ending points, and finished 12th in season points as a rookie and was rookie of the yr seting the racing world on fire, and her multi million dollar brand now was born.

Iam not going to stoop to your immature ranting level and knock Ryan as what he has or hasnt achieved is on him, but blaming others for all his woes is rediculous and holds no facts at hand.

Iam only knocking immature fanatic posters like you who have just shown you clearly dont have a clue about Danica and therefore you most likely dont have a clue about Ryan or SHR either. Go tell your mommy not to let you on a computer anymore untill you grow up and learn respect for others opinions and get YOUR facts straight before you post your incompetent immature childish rants.

Did you just say learn facts before posting?!?!

Did you just say learn respect for others opinions?

Are you telling us you have more of a clue around here about Ryan or SHR, because our respected opinions by you are different than yours?

Please Dude! Stop! Your killing me, with all your knowledge!

yup just by what racer1 has posted, it proves that he or she, or it is a troll,
with the equipment danica was in she should have posted better, the leads she had at the indy 500 were due to gas mileage, never passing cars on the track, plus the talent pool in the irl isnt that deep, your the moron who keeps bring up the awesome things she did, SHOW ME! Ryan has done more in his career then she could ever accomplish, your just here to rock the boat and get people mad, this is what we call a LOSER kinda like danica, what did rutludge call her the other day a woman with a 8th grader body, more like a a males 8th grader body hahahaha

"Ryan has done more in his career then she could ever accomplish, ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------"

LMAO again. Let me know when Ryan can get consistently in the top 10 or better in season ending points like Danica did EVERY YR for 6 Yrs and 12 th in points as a rookie in her Indycar career. Nothing against Ryan really but since you brought it up, Ive checked and he's not even close. Out of his 12 yrs he has 6 top 10's in season ending points only, but NOT consistently every yr like Danica if you want to compare. Ryan was actually much better in his earlier career as in his last 6 yrs he only finished top 10 in season points in 2 out of those 6 yrs. He finished the 2011 yr 9TH place in points and another 9th place in points in 2009. He finished 15th in 2010, 17th in 2008 and 13th in 2007 and 18th in 2006, not something to bragg about.

Also saying he's accomplished more then Danica--well--HE should dont you think as he is a Nascar veteran of 12 yrs and she has 25 races in NNS TOTAL ONLY. Thats not even a comparison, but watch and see where they both finish once she's more experienced in the cars. As of now comparing Danica to Ryan is not even a comparison worth mentioning other then by losers like yourself..as you're the one who brought it up and YOU lose.


Also critisising her body is a new low for anyone and just shows the low class loser mentality of remarks like that.. Besides the facts are that body has earned her millions in photo shoots and recognision and no different then many other female stars these days. I'd say grow up to you again but apparently you arent capable of that.

Whats the problem --did Danica not give you her autograph, so now you're throwing your childish little tantrums and insulting rants against her? Shame Shame.

Ahh, you stat mathematicians, drive me crazy. You nothing about nothing of this sport. This is an ultimate team sport. You will only be as good as the team you are on. If Jimmie Johnson (you know, the guy that has won 6 championships in a row) was on a subpar team, he would struggle to get in the top ten in points. If Danica is on a subpar team in stock cars, she wouldnt even sniff the top 25 in points. As it is she is on one of the best funded teams in the nationwide, so i expect her to get some decent results. Nothing spectacular, but decent. Indy cars have what? 8 really good teams? Claiming top ten in points in the Indy series is equivalent to being happy with a top 20 in points in cup. BTW Ryan was also rookie of the year, & finished much better than 12 in the seasons end. Ryan has never been on a championship caliber team, which if you ever paid attention to what is going on, instead of what you read from stats, or the media driven drivel, you might start understanding this sport.

Let me remind you & whoever else that believes stats, is what you rank some drivers abilities.
Stats to sports fans, is like facts to Lawyers.
You can make them say what ever you want them to be.
There are some drivers out there, that a excellent wheelmen, but most (typical) fans think they suck because they are looking at there stats. Where nowadays it is how marketable a driver is, to how good of a ride he will get. Danica in top equipment in Indy was average at best. That is simple logic, to those that are logical, & not wearing rose colored glasses. I believe Ryan is one of the best "drivers" in the sport, but if you look at stats, the unknowledgable of the sport would never understand that. He has more car control than probably 80% of cup.

Oh, & just so you know, I am not wishing Danica to do bad, in fact, as long as she is Ryan's teammate I hope she does well, but much more talented Open wheel drivers have come over here, & washed out. In fact Tony Stewart might be the only guy to come from open wheels with a fairly quick start. I think you need to realize, she wont light the world on fire over here. (unless it is in a fiery wreck) If Ryan was given the teams Danica has driven for, & only accomplished what she has accomplished, it would be very disappointing. yet you think it is awesome. Which at 1st I thought is weird you bash on Ryan for what he has done with so much less, but then I realized I am debating this with someone without a clue, & suddenly it all comes clear to me, why MJ (& others) bash you.
Since you like old addages
Ignorance is Bliss
You can say whatever you want, you can think whatever you want, & it willl always make sense....... to you.

Comparing Indy points results to Cup points results is apples & oranges.
You are out there.

This discussion is crazy. Fanatical fans bashes drivers..

1. Topic this thread: I am agree Tony Gibson is problem, but I do not think he is only problem. In Chace Ryan's crew had some bad pitstops. And I think Ryan has problem with COT and he had chemistry only with Matt Borland (I am not bash Ryan, I likes him, he is great driver and nice person).

2. Mike Ford is free, but he is free for Stewart-Haas? I do not think Gibbs is fool and he give Zippy and Ford to Stewart-Haas..

3. Schmoopy1000, you have nice words like: " instead of what you read from stats, or the media driven drivel, you might start understanding this sport.". I agree with you racer1 do not understand NASCAR, but you and Michaeljohn doing same thing.. I believe both nothing about nothing of IndyCar and Danica, minimal because if you watched the Indianapolis 500 last two years you never wrote she had top equipment. And Schmoopy Tony Stewart is only successful open wheeler, because he makes transition slowly.. Only Danica is doing same thing.. As Tony fan I remember that Tony Stewart in his first Busch season two times he did not qualified to Busch series race..

I agree, that the pit crew, has had its issues ( a lot actually) but it is the CC job to get that straightened out as well. Also after watching some of the pit stops, I dont know if it is personnel or technique. (which I explained in depth earlier this season)

About #2 I would have loved to get Ford in here for Ryan, but dont think it will happen, or it would have shortly after he was released.

About #3 I agree, I am not a student of Indy cars, & most of my knowledge about the teams over there, is second hand, from avid Open wheel fans, that I talk with. (I do believe they are pretty knowledgable on the subject) I actually was interested in how Desilvestro (dont remember how to spell her name) was doing in that series, in what I was told was mid tier equipment at best.I guess ovals were her weakness, but was quite impressive on RCs. According to other respected Indy drivers. I actually watched more Indy racing this year, than I have had in many years. I am curious, what part of what I have said about Danica's Indy team is incorrect. I wouldnt mind hearing your view of it, or anyones view that doesnt have Danica is great syndrome. I am sure there is a ton of behind the scenes things happenning in that sport, than a spectator of the sport like me wouldnt ever know. (just like in nascar) But using no logic or facts, or simply spitting stats at someone means absolutely nothing to any of us that know better.
As far as Tony is concerned I was basically talking about being in Cup, he was about the only one too do well his 1st year, but you are correct. He didn't rush it, like JPM, the Dinger, Speed, Carpentier, Hornish, & Franchitti did. Who all thought they would just jump in a (Cup) Stock Car & go racing.

Palino you have my interest. Enlighten me. (Knowledge is power)

WOW! Haven't been on this site for awhile now and a last i'm not involved in this one,yet. Since i do not know the answers to what all is wrong with any given team,i will say the #14 will always be top priority in my mere mortal opinion at SHR.The day Danica can out drive Ryan is a bit much, i will say that made me laugh,ok i'm still laughing! The only reason Danica is at SHR is the same for Jr.Motorsports,the sponsor and popularity,the rest remains to be seen. We've all seen Ryan run a #### of alot better in past years than we have recently,so i honestly don't think it's all Ryan.Danica was with a top five team in the IRL and only finished the season once in the top five that i can recall,so correct me if i'm wrong.The one and only win in the IRL was after Helio let Danica by thinking she was a lap down,which put him a lap down during a fuel milage race.Since Danica is fairly new to stock car racing,who knows how good or how long she'll remain in a stock car.The one thing for sure is,i was never honestly impressed with her driving or #### while she was in the IRL,but far as a stock car-i don't think anyone can be certian as yet.Last but not least,much as i like Tony,when Tony was in the IRL i do remember majority or most all the other teams including Penske were struggling while the team Tony was with had figured it out and there was little competition that season with the team Tony was with.That's not to take away anything from Tony,but that's the way i remember it and i like to look at the whole picture.

1. I am agree.
2. Seriously, I am agree, Ford will be more chemistry with Addington and Zipadelli - old JGR team..
3. From second hand? I know some IndyCar fans says: "She has only one win. Overhyped." But if talks about her ex-teamate Tony Kanaan, he had bad Andretti ride.. After IRL with CCWS merger, Andretti's team falls and team struggles. Ganassi and Penske dominate IndyCar, Andretti had only 7 wins from 2008. Kanaan was IndyCar champion in 2004, but after 2008 he had only 2 wins, 1 more than Danica. Danica beats Kanaan in 2009. From 2010 she falls, because she starts NASCAR career and it is very hard being succesful one week starts in IndyCar, next in Nationwide, next in IndyCar, etc. Two very different cars with very different styles driving car.. And Andretti last year was top10 car, because Newman-Haas and KV Technology were as strong as Andretti. Andretti is good team, but not best and last 4 years whole team struggles, period..

Simona de Silvestro - I am also her fan, she is nice girl, good road racer. She needs better team or more experienced teammate.

hey i wish JJ won 6 championships in row, 5 seems so inadequate, all tho it was a HMS car that won the last 6....
