ARCA throttle? Martin and Smith had no time to avoid that.

But if you're talking about the start of the wreck you're still mistaken. Keselowski was getting lose, Truex was checking up to miss him, and then Harvick had no time to react. They're all digging as hard as they can to get off the corner with a good run and try to make a move under the guy in front. Just restart craziness.


Well who was the first on-board we rode with that didn't even get caught up in the accident? (sound on low due to 3am watching and too drunk to remember details )

That's the one I'm referring too, looked like the car ahead was getting loose and instead of breaking and ducking to the inside to avoid it he just floored it and plowed on through, spinning the car ahead in the process that had a half-chance of gathering it all up if he'd have given him some room....(yes, only a half chance but we'll never know now...)

Dear god Robby you need to find some kind of speed on tracks that aren't short or road courses.

It doesn't matter how long it has been I still think of Ryan Newman when I see that Mobil 1 livery....

Some livery/driver combinations stick in my head more than others...

All that strategy they tried to pull and Tony blew it speeding onto pit road.

oh btw they should do that more often, showing the actual timing and scoring they use to determine pit penalties. Tony Stewart was about 2mph over the 5mph allowance in the first segment.

If they would show that all the time, things would be so much clearer.

Tony Stewart is still only 1 lap down, he could still make something out of this.
Brilliant strategy move too. If he wouldn't have sped the race would have been his. It still could be...

First win for Kenseth in over two years. I'm glad to see him win over quite a few other drivers, or Harvick a third time in a row.

Very interesting to see all the strategies play out. I don't know how long it's been since we've seen that many green flag pit stops in a race. That's what kept it interesting to me. Kenseth dominated, cool to see him back in victory lane though.

Dale Jr. keeping his hot streak alive. Consistency is key and he's making it work right now.

Glad for Kenseth and Junebug.

Harvick blew chunks today. Not sure what happened.

I would of loved it if Harvick came out of no where "LOLZ TURBO ENGAGEDD!!"

If it wasn't for Menard and Ambrose running so well I would of played games. Poor runs by Harvick, Dinger and Robby.

I actually thought it was a pretty good race. Then again, I was hanging with several friends at a bar, so maybe that made it more fun.

It wasn't a bad race, it's not like Kenseth didn't have pressure the entire night. Showing more battles and less on-boards would be a start, but that's TV's responsibility.
