Watkins Glen in the rain

#22 may come to regret that bonehead move before this is over.
 
I guess Kurt's pissed that Kyle's getting all the attention, so he's gonna be an even bigger ass so he's the center of attention again.

The younger Busch seems to be minding his own business lately and concentrating on drivng the car. As for the older, that's just Kurt being Kurt.

I am going to side a little on Kurt on this one. AJ should just have let him pass, he was faster and wasn't a threat. Well at least until he rammed him into the corner.

Kurt wasn't close enough to pass... so AJ should've let Kurt gain a few carlengths then given up the lead for Kurt to pass.

Kurt didn't hit the brakes going in to the corner, he used AJ's car as his brake pedal.
 
I think Kyle is being smart here. Looks like he is playing the rain strategy. If he keeps going with this strategy he should be the leader after halfway and if it rains...well he probaby will win.

AJ should have moved over. Kurt had newer tires and was a lapped car. Made no sense to race him. Kurt waited and waited, then showed AJ how much faster new tires can get into the loop.

I've seen a lot more drivers lose races by staying out than win races (cautions during the run). It's a risky strategy, but it might be the only way to beat the 9 and 43.
 
18, 14 and 2 stayed out. They could be screwed if this is half a race. This whole thing wll be a crap shoot.
 
Okay, nevermind, the top-7 stayed out, everyone else pitted. So ESPN didn't show several of the cars that pitted on their race off pit road graphic.
 
Remember when Robby Gordon used to be a major factor factor at road races? Just sad.
 
Huge talent, but working with 5 CC's in 2 years hurt him, and Jay Guy wasn't a good choice. It's unbelievable what Paul Wolfe is doing in his first year as a cup CC.
