As a driver you hold yourself to really high standards and expect things out of yourself that other dont. Not to make mistakes and win every night you hit the track. Which in Jon's case has been alot the last few years. Atleast he came out and said congrats. He didnt have to do that. What else do you want from him? Have him have no emoition. Play the kiss ass game. I dont thing so. That is not Jon. He is a class act. And if you think he is sore loser then everyone i have ever met is a sore loser. He is not a kid out there doing it with daddy money and to keep him out of trouble. This is his JOB. Tell ya what come down from those stands and just try to make the show before you say someone that has domated the sport is a sore loser.

Your right Billy. I cannot remember how many times after loosing a close race I have not spoke to my driver for 15-20 minutes. I have learned that you just give them their time, and then just give them a cold beer and they settle down. For some reason the drivers I have helped for years have this thing for tearing up the sun visor when getting out of the car mad LOL. Cannot remember how many times I have replaced them. Whether right or wrong, the day they are satisfied with just a top 5 and quit tearing up sun visors is the day I quit helping.
Congrats on the success at Kokomo.
