Just how bad does JC France suck?

Postby David J Marguglio on Tue Jun 06, 2006 2:29 pm

So is the notorious France family's influence run so strong in road racing to excuse the antics and lackluster driving of JC? I have watched all of three or four Rolex races in the last six months and during that time, I have seen JC: spin countless times, take himself and others out of the race, begin a redneck-style fist fight/pro wrasslin' exchange ON THE TRACK after wrecking another driver and jumping out of his car all-bowed up.

But the latest, and possibly my favorite, was this weekend at the 6-hours at the Glen. Under a full-course caution and following stacked up traffic that was proceeding at a crawl, JC managed to loop his car, then drive across the track and through the stream of other cars and become stuck in the wet grass.

After being towed out, thus causing further delay, he proceeded to hurry his fat azz around to catch back up to the parade, still under caution mind you. Half way around, he loops it again, only this time slamming into a guardrail and nearly flipping the Brumos DP. This time, he jumps out of the car and storms back to the pits.

My suggestion, keep on walking JC...all the way to Nextel Cup. :roll:

Yeah not pretty, I'll have to give Hayden the team engineer a call at WEVO and see what's up.
I guess the Brumos 59 car does help with 2nd car data for the 58.
Still a bit of a disgrace for the Brumos 59 and colors.
Watching France has inspired me to take the Brumos theme off my 911. :wink:

JC France is one of those "gentlemen" drivers in the pro ranks. Typically these guys are short on skills/experience and long on MONEY. Seems pretty clear he fits the profile.

Take away the family bucks and he would be fighting it out in club racing.

Dave,
Funny, but truly accurate! Dang NASCAR hillbillies.....
I really miss having you in the 944 spec class, buddy.
How much faster could you pilot a spec car around Willow now that you've lost all that weight? Your 944 spec car is for sale again....
