Matt Kenseth

Yeah, it's kind of ironic that a bad finish at possibly his best track doomed him. Hopefully they can get a better hold on things next year.

Yeah who would've thought he'd finish 25th at Texas and 3rd at Phoenix.

I think the opposite happened. I don't ever remember Matt doing what he did to Kez

Actually "Matt the Brat" is still what he's called at WIR, Madison International and Slinger. He went toe-to-toe with his future car owner and crew chief Robby Reiser in the Oregon pits in the early 90s. He's had his moments, just not in the big time.

Don't forget, he won his first Busch Series race in 98 by moving Stewart in turn four at Rockingham on the last lap.

Awesome, I never saw that before.

 
That was one of the coolest days of my childhood. I ran all over the neighborhood bragging that that was the guy my aunt knew.

Extremely emotional day for the Kenseth camp because they desperately needed a sponsor to keep that thing going. Lycos saved the day and a couple of careers.

On the last caution that red and blue car pitted with the leaders; I swear everyone in the stands thought some lap-down back marker came in early. Then Mike Helton chewed on him a bit for tearing up the front stretch grass. I suspect that's why he did it again in '03.
