When you get to a certain age, having stared death in the face and come back, and you have major money to boot, you can say pretty much anything you want. Kind of like Kathy Bates said in “Fried Green Tomatoes,” “Face it girls, I’m older and have more insurance.”
Jack Roush didn’t mince words when the subject of Toyota Racing Development officials complaining the discrepancies in Carl Edwards’ car post race in Las Vegas created a horsepower and downdraft advantage.
During a press conference at Atlanta Motor Speedway on Friday, Jack made it pretty plain.
“I was not complicit,” Roush said. “Carl Edwards was not complicit and I’m gonna treat Lee White and Toyota for their accusations in USA Today today like they were an ankle-biting Chihuahua and be done with it.”
And we say Tony Stewart has a big mouth. Wait, he drives a Toyota. Wait, doesn’t he have two Chihuahuas?
Hmmmmm.
We all know there’s no love lost between Jack Roush and Toyota. Or any foreign manufacturer for that matter. He won’t even drive a rental that’s foreign made, I read in “Men and Speed.”
Roush Fenway President Geoff Smith called for NASCAR to investigate TRD, which admitted in the USA Today article to having tested a car with the modification of no oil reservoir lid and achieved considerable addition downdraft and added horsepower.
Who says they only drop the gloves in hockey?
