I'll give it a 10 no one hurt, Kurt Busch wrecked car still running a top ten and where else do you see a triple car spin with no damage to any car?
I'll bet Kyle Petty and Chirstian Fittipaldi would rate it a 1, did they even know the track was paved? :lol:
A ten at least.
Love these road courses. They do bring the best to the front.
This is one of the few races where Kurt Busch showed massive aggression and poor judgement. BUT, he wasn't the only one. There was a lot of that in the race by different ones. His ability came through when he finished in the top ten.Just shows, every driver has thier day for screwing up.
Kudo's to Ryan Newman, another great job. As for Kyle Petty, well, the dark angel bit his A$$ more than once and he bit a few butts himself but it was a pleasant surprise to see him doing well. Almost makes me wonder where he would have finished if the slammin' and bammin' had been behind him. As for Fitipaldi, he seems to be just another pretty face on the scene. No excuse for his excursions. Not just yesterday but last week as well.
When oh when will Petty Enterprises get thier act together and put a GOOD driver in a STRONG car??? One can only hope a revival of the glory days with the 43 might be in the wings.
One thing for sure, as much as I dislike the shoving routine, if Fellows were in front and a championship contender such as Kenseth (or any other driver in contention) the last lap might prove disasterous for the leader. These "ringers" are in there for one of two races a year and the rest of the contenders are fighting for every point they can get in the highly competitive series. A win without leading a lap before the checkered flag means ten more points.
As Fellows himself commented, Winston Cup drivers are the best in the world. That is a pretty broad statement.
