Talladega RACE thread

It did look like he moved down but he slowed for a wreck, which, IMO, is what Dillon should've done.
Unfortunate, but this is what sucks about plate "racing."

Kyle had a ton of room. He panicked and slowed WAY too much, then turned down without looking.
 
Damn that would suck if Kyle its still 2 points to the good and Jimmie or Brad wins and bumps him out. I would rather be out of it completely then to have to wait till the last lap to get eliminated.

Not a lot of time to look. Not sure what you can see from the driver seat anyway. Maybe he was listening to his spotter. Kyle wouldn't have hit anything. Dillon was the one that ran into something.
It doesn't matter now.
 
Did Joe Gibbs just say Kyle wrecked because he braked?....NUP

Even the owner sees it how it was. ;)

Not trying to argue with you Clutch but yeah, Kyle did come across Austin while being too slow.

It's not entirely his fault but he helped.
 
really? so every driver use their brakes when cars our spinning in front of them, non of them just drive thru it?
My dad said that's probably what Scott Riggs must have been taught to do since he was in so many wrecks. Just mash the gas, close your eyes, and pray.
 
I dunno how much of a teammate Johnson will be today.

He hasn't been a teammate today

Dale certainly hasnt been a teammate to him today. So not much. Its all or nothing today.

Johnson has never been a good teammate. I can't remember a time when he helped anyone out on the track.
Why would they help the other here? Both have to win it's not like either are basically locked in.

Slowing that much is a Danica move, but It doesn't matter now.
 
Gibbs simply said what happened. I didn't hear him blame anyone.
 
Smart move by Gordon pitting with the lap down cars. No sense risking damage or anything like that. Definitely want to start as far back as possible too. This restart will be nuts.

Oh, I wasn't trying to imply that they should be helping each other. I was just making a general statement.

Jr. has still benefitted from being in the same garage as the 48. Not much more to ask for.
Definitely.
