TNFL Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Yeah, I'm glad I don't get only 3 months off !!! And get a million bonus for being the 11th best guy at my place of employment. BOO WHOOOO. I just wish I could get more than 3 weeks off. Sorry, your just not going to get a pitty party from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMickish Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 Your right, it sure seems like they complain about the schedule, but from my side of things I don't think it would be that bad. Big money, a job that is fun and you get to travel. I'b bet there are alot more people willing to trade with them than there are guys willing to step down.

lawdog Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 Here's the thing about that schedule, the races to us are a blast and the travel is nice. To them, its work (albeit great work that is well compensated) and the travel is non-stop. When you travel isn't it nice to get home too? They don't hardly get to be home as they are on the road at least 40 weeks out of the year (by the time you figure testing outside of the schedule and sponsor appearances I'm sure its much more). I don't think it would be as rosy as we all think (aside from the cha-ching), the grass is always greener after all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnMickish Posted December 15, 2005 Author Share Posted December 15, 2005 I don't think that the life of a top driver is easy, and like anything else once a hobby becomes a job I'm sure it loses some luster, but....With what these guys a making I don't think they have much to complain about.

harvey lee Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I would be willing to bet that next year Jr will win the most popular driver again,so if he didnt make the banquet it probably doesnt matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
