As long as Scott Speed respects all that is NASCAR he will be welcomed. Don???t come in here and try to push anybody around.
There are drivers that have serious racing to do while you are just learning, so remember to let the faster cars pass you without incident. Listen to your spotter and make sure you are clear so you don't spin anybody out. Don't ever make any wild- unpredictable lane changes. This unprofessional behavior will not be taken kindly by the other drivers. Follow the lead of the other young Toyota drivers who are in the hunt for a championship and you may one day be there too.

Buschy Baby left out the most important part!
and whatever you do, don't have any respect for others, or you will get none yourself.

oh, LMAO!

Maybe he can team up w/Kerry at TEI

Were is my ape buddy. I thought my opening comments would bring you out.

Asbel will be back in a few days, but he is doing fine.

What a cool name but understand his real name is Percy Putz.

Scott is taking the right road and not pushing the issue too soon. He'll be a great one once he gets to Nationwide and Cup full time.

Ummmm, he lost his F-1 ride for a reason!!! So now he is going to get a shot in a Sprint ride??? This my friends is just absolute BS!!!!

I agree with that, If you can't handle a Cessna, oh lets see, well let you try out in Tomcat.

He lost his F-1 ride because of F-1 politics.

You are going to have to explain that to us Nascar fans who know nothing about F-1. Just make it short, cause I don't wanna know that much about it.

He didn't get along with the big wigs in F-1, and openly mentioned the fact the team couldn't give him enough speed to compete with the higher up teams. So he got the boot.

The team he drove for was junk too... A satellite to the Red Bull team.

F-1 does not like American drivers

Asbel Had Knee surgery on both legs yesterday and is recovering
at the present time HE"LL BE BACK soon

As per Speed = well it just ain't gonna happen this year,
he needs a lot more seat time before that happens.

He lost his f1 ride because he drove for a team that couldn't compete at the f1 level.

The team he drove for absolutely sucked and was one of the worst in F1. Things have gotten marginally better for the team. The team had scored a single point in the F1 constructors championship in the season and a half Speed drove for them. The reliability of the equipment is terrible, and they had bad luck as well brought on in large part due to poor equipment getting them in bad positions on the track.

Scott Speed had 11 Retired's (DNF's) in 27 F1 races. Many of those were due to mechanical failures.

In 44 total races (88 drivers as a 2 car team), The team has scored points in 5 of those 88 runs (top 8 finishes). Only once have both cars scored points.

This wasn't a matter of Scott Speed being able to drive, it was a matter of him driving for a team that can't get out of its own way.
