Damn, people. Why can't Nascar fans be more into slash?
Look at this - this is from a Sports Illustrated story on Chad Knaus (crew chief for Jimmie Johnson, who just won his second straight championship):
"When Rick put those two guys together, it was like [Spencer] Tracy and [Katherine] Hepburn," said attorney Allan Miller, who specializes in motorsports and has represented Johnson for most of his career and Knaus for the past two years. "All of the sudden, there was this magic. You'd have to say Chad is the most successful crew chief in the garage ,and together they're the most successful combination in the garage."
They're all bestest friends and everything, fantastic partnership. But up to two years ago, they were still in the trying-to-kill-each-other stage of the relationship. They wanted to break up and their team owner wouldn't let them - made them come into his office and fed 'em milk and cookies. Because they were acting like little kids.
Even THEIR LAWYER thinks they should get it on. (And *cough* note that they've been winning ever since Chad signed that pre-nup. Or, you know, whatever.)
This is totally not even getting into the dynamics with the other drivers in that garage - the past king (who was expected to win this year) is Jimmie's mentor and PART OWNER who convinced Big Daddy owner to take a chance on the kid (I'm just saying. There's some interesting possibilities there.), and they've got the hothead rockstar Dale, Jr. coming onboard next year.
