I cry foul, nascar sux. Like Don said, tough stones when Gordon had the track breakup in front/under him. He didn't get any breaks.

Oh crap, Musky. Just tune in so you can comment in real time. You haven't missed much except the twerp. I'm getting a little tired of the Fox broadcast crew kissing nascar's you know what. They should not be being praised for their inconsistencies.

That's why I can't wait until NASCAR moves to the other networks for the rest of the season. Never cared for the FOX/NASCAR relationship........

My daughter and I started watching Star Wars Episode II - Attack of the Clones last nite(for the millionth time). It ended at 11:30,
1 1/2hrs past my bedtime. Soooooo, we'll finish off the movie.......

Re: Coca Cola 600 - The Longest nascar Race

I actually think NASCAR got this right. Just because they haven't done the right thing, or have done something different in the past, doesn't mean they can't try and fix it now. For me anything that keeps more cars competitive, like allowing them to repair damage they had no control over, is good. With that said, I know a car that hit's debris from another car had no fault, but that's where I would draw the line. There have been other times where drivers/teams got ripped off. I think Robby Gordon got screwed by a burning up camera or something and he was going to win. Not sure how you can solve everything, but you they should solve what they can.

OK, Musky - Spend time with your other family. Enjoy! :) Dover is the last Fox race this year. Hoorah!

QC - As much as nascar likes to write rules, you would (as least I would) think that they had some contingencies covered. It's not like there is no history with external factors. Both Gordons, Danica last year in Montreal with the shoe. Maybe I'm over reacting because it's the twerp. I don't know.

Funny, because I was initially more concerned about Ambrose. I was hating that he was stuck on pit road while the yellow was out, so I was screaming for the red flag in the beginning although that would not have helped if you couldn't touch the car. I mentioned after Talledega that I think they should be allowed to work on their cars under red at the plate tracks. These 20 car wrecks are just ridiculous. Same kind of concept, so maybe I was predisposed to the idea.

Yes. As a twerp fan, I'm happier - NOT. No W/E sweep. LOL

I guess Jr. lost the motor by the smoke. The Biff was having a hard time of it tonight, it didn't help to be right behind the 88. Maybe the other two, 7 & 93, hit the oil.

Re: Coca Cola 600 - The Longest nascar Race

I thought 'Dega was a few weeks ago. How many involved?

Sorry, Lipp. Oops. And the 78 just died.

Did Ricky crash Danica? Why not, not much skill showing right now.

Harvick, Kahne, Busch, Hamlin and Logano are the top five. Burton was 12th, not bad considering all the mayhem.
