The turn 1 camera caught the wreck and yet no replays from it? Way to go ESPN...

Rather Harvick, Montoya or Reutimann than Bowyer.

Especially David was all over the place, pushing and being pushed.

I'm not an expert on the subject, so I don't know for sure, but it seems that ESPN either doesn't bring very many cameras tot he track, or the production crew really sucks. Not totally sure why they consistently miss things.


I think its both.

I'd assume FOX has the higher budget which means they hire more experienced personnel who have been doing it since the ESPN days, AND they can bring more cameras to the track too as a result.

FOX would've been all over that last wreck and probably would've updated on the condition of AJ much better too, rather than leaving us in a "not mentioning the wreck and only talking about the close finish" limbo.

Remember Daytona when Martin flipped? They managed to cover both the extreme close finish and all the mess behind much better than what we saw today...

ESPN needs to fire Rusty, Brad Daughtery, Marty Reid, Jamie Little, Ray Evernham and put their wages into hiring a better producer. Bump Bestwick back into the booth as well.

After they finally decided to give AJ some attention, I guess those 2 shitty angles of the wreck is all they got :(

Would've been nice if they re-showed the head on shot again though....oh well.

There is VIDEO PROOF of the finishing order, sorry, but you cant argue that.

Fantastic race, don't mind seeing Clint win at all, and it was awesome seeing Harvick up in the mis with that damaged car. Overall 9/10 for me. :flag:

While I think about it, did they replay the truck wreck/finish in the pre-race at all? :?

Very poor replays from ESPN. Where was the angle from the fornt?!


Otherwise, amazing race, typical Tally. Always a highlight of every years for me! :thumbsup:

Sorry to say this guys but that was a seriously shit way to end a race!

to rely on a TV director catching the leader at the exact moment they decide to throw the yellow, why dont they count back to the leader over the line last time round like every other race series on the planet?
