why do they call Tony Stewart "Smoke".?

he would always spin his tires creating smoke \nin the IRL he used to either blow an engine and have smoke come from the back or win the race

Well people i am sorry but it is all to do with the sponserships and if they say "winston cup" it help the WINSTON SIGERETS Not the NEXTEL CUP. So if you still wondring ask dave dispane on wind tunnel on speed.

By no means am I a Tony hater! I think he is one of the best drivers, not to mention he will probably win the championship...again.  I think Tony is an awesome driver, and I think everything he does is part of racing. We can't blame him for being aggressive, he only gives what he gets.  bumping is just a part of racing, and to be #1 you have to get in there and do what you gotta do.  Smoke has what it takes to win.  I am personally a Biffel fan, however, I have to give credit where credit is do.

I don't know for sure, but:\n\n1) These drivers get very hot and often dehydrated during these races. It's possible they just don't have to go.\n2) On the occasions that they DO have to go, my guess is they go in their jumpsuits.\n\nIf you contact NASCAR and get an answer to this question, let us know!

I am happy that Tony Stewart keeps crashing, but not happy that my Gordon keeps crashing. And what do you mean by KEEPS CRASHING. this is the first time hes crashed into the wall this YEAR, honey. He is not a whiny spoiled brat...JR. is. The only reason Jr. is famous is b/c of his father. ONE WORD for dale Jr.= OVERRATED. \n\nBudweiser sucks a**\nDUPONT RULES The world FOREVER \n\nYou know nothing about Jeff Gordon, so you have no right to say hes whiny and spoiled. hes worked hard for everything he has, and he deserves all the success in the world. Just because he's not a SOUTHERN BOY- doesn't mean hes any less of a racer. IN FACT.... if Jeff Gordon left NASCAR today, he would go down in the books as one of NASCARS greatest drivers ever.

Sounds like people from the 10 team and the Harvicks were exchanging words as they were walking. While this was going on, someone deliberately or accidentally bumped into them and they were both knocked off their feet.  Yep, everyone got called to the Oval Office (as DW calls it).  Didn't hear the part about the foot being run over.  Wouldn't surprise me, though. A lot going on in a small space.  It happens.  Bob Dillner broke the story. I think, so he is going to be REAL careful to get his facts straight this time, especially when Kevin Harvick is concerned.\n\nSpeed Report just did an update--there was yelling and some shoving. Both Kevin and DeLana were knocked down.  A NASCAR official injured his ankle (it sounded like they were in the area of the pit box, which was moving, and the official was trying to break it up).

Ditto Misti J.\n\nI don't think so.  Anyway, I read this qoute on Power Rankings (NASCAR..com) It was the power rankings for Bristol, I believe. Anyway- they were quoting Kevin Harvick telling about a time when he was in the shower and he turned around an Tony was standing there.  So I think Kevin and Tony must have a thing. \n\nI can't stand Jr, Tony  or Kevin, that makes it even funnier.

I'm a smoker (no, not bragging or trying to justify it....stupid habit). Still, as a smoker, I'm really irritated by smokers who do that. I always use an inside ash tray, besides making sure I'm way downwind of non-smokers even when I smoke outdoors. I think it's just the decent thing to do. Also, throwing cigs out of a moving car window is dangerous, not to mention stupid!

Don't worry!  The cigarette smell covers over the "stench" you're asking about!!!\n\nNow, if we can only get these nit wits to use their car ashtray and not the roadway.......................

I'm sorry, but I have not heard of any available NASCAR fanclubs for Austrailian fans. I live in the USA, so I'm afraid I can't help much. However, I would encourage you to teach your fellow Austrailian friends about NASCAR racing and get them interested in it. Then, maybe you all can start your own club!\n\nP.S. Your screen name looks like you're a Tony Stewart fan! Same here!!!!!! He's my #1 favorite driver!

Smoke won it last year.\nK Busch is on the pole\nJeff G has usually has a good run on the road course\n\nThose are the only three I can think of.\n\nStay away from Jr,and Edwards (I love him), but doesn't seem too confident.\nJr gets fustrated quickly. (that's my opinion)\n\nAnother one...Maybe Boris,because os his F1 experience. \n\nGo to NASCAR.com I find  it helpful.

wether he was or was not is not what bothers me it is the fact that whenever there is a bump that he is involved in everone makes such a big deal about it.While someone else who bumps someone ,all they will say is THERE WAS SOME CONTACT BETWEEN..... but Tony always gets a bad rap whether it is accidental or payback.....I do not think any of those guys should be wrecking each other out of temper but realistically there are dirty drivers out there that get no attention for it while Tony is constantly in trouble.Gotta love him.Nascar fan who NEVER misses a race.

I DON'T THINK ITS RIGHT THAT NASCAR DOES THAT. I THINK THE MEDIA NEEDS TO QUITE SHOVING A MIC IN FRONT OF THEM AFTER SOME ONE JUST WRECKED THEM.. LET THEM COOL OFF FIRST.. SOMETIMES IT CAN BE COMPLETELY TAKEN OUT OF CONTEXT
