I thought Ricky blew a tire at first, then they showed that it was the motor.. glad he still got the win instead of Carl.

I don't get how Carl is talking about Ricky being aggressive etc, I thought Carl was the one being the douche in this race.

That was one of the craziest finishes to a Nascar race I've seen in a long time. I've never seen a guy blow his engine, get wrecked and still win the race. I think that wreck was totally unavoidable on Edwards' part. He ran through the oil from Stenhouse's car, so he couldn't control it and he also couldn't see on top of it. There was nothing Edwards could do there.

What could have Edwards done differently at the end? His car was sliding in the oil from Stenhouse's car and he couldn't see through the smoke coming from Stenhouse's car.

I wish some people wouldn't automatically place blame on Carl Edwards in every crash he's involved because they dislike him. I don't see any way he could have avoided hitting Stenhouse's car.

To be fair, Carl's reputation kinda precedes him. It's the reason most of us automatically look towards him whenever he's near the start of a huge wreck (check out Dover's Busch race this year - it wasn't his fault, but he was too near the start of the wreck for us to not blame him initially.)

Earl can be told to STFU purely for whinging about his teammate racing him hard. This series means a hell of a lot more to guys like Stenhouse than Edwards, who is already leading the points in a higher grade series. Never mind the fact that Stenhouse is unsponsored while Earl has all sorts of dollars trying to crawl up his butt.

In short, Carl, fuck off.

I'm just glad Ricky blocked Carl like a motherfucker when his engine went.

Yes.

Finish of that race last night was just, I was speechless when it happened. (not really, I was probably yelling out alot of "whoas" and WHAT?!s). I think that is the first time I've ever seen the leader blow up coming to get the checkers, and certainly the only time I would have seen him still win the race.

I still can't figure out why the trucks are running here instead of some cool short track. This place is the antithesis of truck racing.

Caution for the 66 truck stalled on the access road.

Not been a good week for that 66 team has it.
