Richmond RACE thread

[DanicaFreak]

wonder what he said on the radio.....I think theres nothing wrong with what edwards did. Thats racing!

 

[Kiante]

He handled that very well.

 

[AdoubleU24]

If it was a non JGR car he likely would have been more visibly shaken by it

 

[ISUFan22]

Awesome. Great job Carl. lol KyBu.

 

[Rick]

This one will give Martinsville a run for rate-the-race!!!!

 

[BobbyFord]

Cool 18 interview.
All JGR in the top 10.

 

[jws926]

He handled that very well.

Well on camera anyways, I am sure he took Carl of the Christmas card list

 

[ISUFan22]

He handled that very well.

Because it was a teammate. Only reason. Behind scenes he's gonna cry.

 

[Racer1930]

You can't hit a car in the ass if your can't catch em....and if you CAN catch em then you are the faster car

 

[Johali]

A helluva good race. 9

 

[ISUFan22]

Love that Carl just openly states what he did.

 

[Joe Hartshorn]

Woohoo - what a cracking finish! Was absorbed so by it, I had to take the laptop into the lounge to show my wife the last lap again!
What a cool sport!
And the interview summed up NASCAR - what a super reaction -
guys don't change this sport!
If that had been any other sport, Edwards would now have a 10 race ban!
Kyle is gaining more respect in my eyes

Shame the streaming coverage has gone so can't see any more interviews

 

[jws926]

Love that Carl just openly states what he did.

Because he really didnt do anything wrong, it wasnt like he was trying to wreck him, he bump and ran him.

[DaBiff1618]

4th place for Kasey Kahne!!

 

[DaBiff1618]

Oh well not that mad he's got 2 wins already. Better Carl then Jimmie

 

[Michfan]

Respect for Kyle for not overreacting. I remember 08 when Kyle got really mad for Carl bumping and running.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Congrats to Carl should be a great battle all year between he and Kyle

 

[BobbyFord]

Oh well not that mad he's got 2 wins already. Better Carl then Jimmie

3 guys tied with 2 wins. Great start for a season of multiple wins.

 

[Racer1930]

Awesome finish...been done a million times...I'm faster than you, gonna hit you in the ass and back off and then gun it...Dale Earnhardt would be proud

 

[Pat]

Not mad, nope..

In postrace news conf, Kyle asked if he expected contact from Edwards & if it mattered both had wins, he responds by saying he had great car

 

[jws926]

And Kurt declines post race interview

 

[BobbyFord]

Textbook bump and run. I hope Joey was paying attention, it could keep him out of the fence later in the year.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Not mad, nope..

That's good. He's not biting the hook

 

[lisa]

And Kurt declines post race interview

I still feel sick.

Nothing wrong with being mad, its all how you handle it and yourself that matters.

 

[jws926]

I still feel sick.

So do I , so damn close

 

[Jonesi]

Respect for Kyle for not overreacting. I remember 08 when Kyle got really mad for Carl bumping and running.

And that's why he can win Nascar Cup Championships now. He matured a lot last year while recovering from the leg injuries.

 

[JBone88]

That's good. He's not biting the hook

Racing deal. He's got every right to be mad. Nothing to be gained by giving the press a soundbite. He handled it well.

 

[Pat]

true

 

[HoneyBadger]

4th place for Kasey Kahne!!

Like magic. Dude knows he's on the hot seat and magically starts performing well.

Story of Kasey Kahne's entire Cup career.

That said... #VotePitchBlack

 

[HoneyBadger]

Why do they always give Kyle's wife so much air time?

Because she's hot. Duh.

 

[Racer1930]

Textbook bump and run..

Yes Sir...actually if you wanted to show how a faster car gets by and wins - this race should be the video - "textbook" is exactly right

 

[BobbyFord]

Next week he'll be 23rd

 

[Racer1930]

Next week he'll be 23rd

LOL...if he can get by Danica

 

[lisa]

I don't blame Kurt for not interviewing. I wouldn't want to either.

 

[jws926]

I don't blame Kurt for not interviewing. I wouldn't want to either.

Oh I dont either.

 

[BobbyFord]

I don't blame Kurt for not interviewing. I wouldn't want to either.

Damn, Kyle interviewed.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Feel really bad for Kurt. SHR needs to get their pit crews figured out. They've been giving races away for 3 years now

 

[DaBiff1618]

Also, nice recoveries for decent finished by Larson and Chase
