I mean did we think anything different? We've never had a clean finish here as it is.
I mean had he not did it, he probably misses his chance at the playoffs. It might be different if he took out someone who needed the win, when he didn't need the win himself.Sometimes you do, so there is that too.
Oh I know, and I understand why he did it, but it just sucks when it has to be done on the more dirty side.I mean had he not did it, he probably misses his chance at the playoffs. It might be different if he took out someone who needed the win, when he didn't need the win himself.
That comment just exemplifies everything Austin is.Oh yeah, that's it, Kaz made him dump him..jackass
I don't know, you need the win for the playoffs sometimes you gotta do things.

Definitely a dump rather than a bump. Kinda dirty... but it is what it is.
Speaking of dirty, I love how Gragson shoved it in there 4 wide, taking the 8 and 74 out of contention... then holds up the eventual winner, gets nudged, and is damn near in tears about it.
I switched back over the NBCSN so I didnt hear what Michael said, what was his opinion ?Unfortunately there is truth to that, and that is the situation created by "the playoffs" and the pressure these kids face to make it. Races don't play out as they would normally, wins are taken at nearly any cost by drivers not yet in. For once I share Michael Waltrip's opinion, and the clear resignation in his voice as he describes that's just how it is.
I want to ask the people who don't like the move, what you would do if this was probably your last chance to make the playoffs? Would you just settle for second?

Exactly. I agree the move wasn't clean at all, but I can't honestly say I wouldn't have done it. If I had a win already and was in the playoffs I would handle it differently yeah and try a cleaner win. But the championship at the end is what matters.You gotta go for it. It just wasn't as pretty as it could have been imo.
ThanksI don't have direct quotes, but his tone was dejected and reserved, and he stated that drivers doing whatever it takes to win is just the reality nowadays.
Who is saying he had to settle for second? He had five more corners. He could have tried bumping and running. Instead, he chose to dump and run. I knew Austin would do it because that's who he is, but there are options in between settling for second and wrecking someone.I want to ask the people who don't like the move, what you would do if this was probably your last chance to make the playoffs?

The thing is, sometimes a bump and run might not be the easiest move, plus beside Ryan Blaney has anyone won clean here? It's just how this race always ends.Who is saying he had to settle for second?

One MIS fan to another... I completely agreeWho is saying he had to settle for second? He had five more corners. He could have tried bumping and running. Instead, he chose to dump and run.

I realize others have wrecked to win before, it doesn't mean it's any less dirty today.The thing is, sometimes a bump and run might not be the easiest move, plus beside Ryan Blaney has anyone won clean here? It's just how this race always ends.
And I agreed it's dirty, but I also don't blame him. Nascar made these win and your in rules, this is the mess that happens.I realize others have wrecked to win before, it doesn't mean it's any less dirty today.

I'd say it was a dirty move. Yes, bump and run are harder, but this is supposed to be hard. When you resort to wrecking someone because it's "easier" that's just sadAnd I agreed it's dirty, but I also don't blame him. Nascar made these win and your in rules, this is the mess that happens.
Would you have a problem with it if it was a driver you like? Say if Carl was still racing what would you say about it?
Still didn't answer me about if it was someone you like. You're one of the members here I actually like and I don't want to ruin that or anything tho.I'd say it was a dirty move.

I said I would say it is wrong. How is that not answering?Still didn't answer me about if it was someone you like. You're one of the members here I actually like and I don't want to ruin that or anything tho.
My bad, I had missed that part haha. Like I said in the other one we're good man. Different of opinions happen sometimes.I said I would say it is wrong. How is that not answering?
The bad thing is his dad will almost guarantee he eventually makes it to cup. He'll be one to root against for years.it's good to learn what you are dealing with early instead of being surprised later. Cendric showed me what he is made of. It isn't much IMO.

Honestly I hate seeing the same **** every year. Some daddy's boy wrecking someone for the win. I guess NASCAR's okay with this race just being a free-for-all.I'm not mad at Cindric at all.
Its the same sh!t we see at Mosport every year.
