What will NASCAR do...?

[MRM]

It comes down to the end of the race at Homestead and it looks like it may get decided on fuel mileage. Light-foot Carl Edwards is going to try to peddle it to a finish on fumes. The other 3 contenders are well short on fuel. Does NASCAR throw a "debris" caution to prevent a guy winning the championship on fumes or let it play out?

I think they would let it play out. Personally, I usually like fuel mileage races.

I'm hoping Busch and Edwards wreck out early, Logano loses an engine halfway through, and Johnson wins the title with an unspectacular 17th place finish.

No way in hell there won't be a caution within 10 laps to go on Sunday, whether it be genuine or artificial.

 

[DUN24]

LOL, NASCAR won't let the Homestead Bowl come down to fuel mileage. No way.

Agree woth Yoda 100%. If you could place a Vegas bet on "caution within the final 10 laps" it would be like printing money.

I think a fuel mileage race adds exactly the drama NASCAR wants. What would be more interesting would be if the 19 (or anyone else) had a sizable lead on the competitors. Then, I think would be a dangerous balloon on the track, or a loose banner.

That's kind of what I was getting at. Edwards stays on the track with a huge lead just barely going the minimum speed when the other 3 have pitted for gas, but are way behind.

There are two thing I totally dislike about how races are won, One is fuel mileage races. The other is going a lap down for pitting under green and a caution comes out.

Yes there will be a caution, real or fake, in the last 10 laps in Homestead.

I don't have any affinity for any of the final 4 characters. Therefore, I will go for the one I hate the least, the 19.

Logano cannot be allowed to win at any cost.

I really don't care how it shakes out..... But I do think there will be a late caution.... I wouldn't mind seeing J.J. win his 7th..... history in the making.... Carl winning his first in retaliation for coming so close with Tony.... or..... Logano winning it because I think that would really burn Matt's butt ...... Matt made his bed last year and Karma is finally coming back.... It usually takes a while.... but.... it's a bi@@h when it does...

 

[bigspud]

also look for old rear wheel axel failure script option.
they also now have the new r/c engine blow via the ecu.

 

[Speedbowl14]

Yeah, no auto sports sanction would let a premier event come down to fuel mileage...

I'll keep an eye out for that.
