For me HATING Kryle and others, I always have pulled for Kez for some reason. Was still hoping he'd beat JJ even after all that. Oh well.

When Chase Race #1 rolls around next year, we should post clips of all the fights from this year.

You know, it probably wouldn't have ended up a fight had Harvick not come in and pushed Kes.

Looking at the replay again, it really was just a nudge and then a rub. Jaff's anger would be better directed at NASCAR for allowing the flared fenders and Goodyear for making tyres out of Stilton.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

I'm retroactively amused that Gordon unfairly lost millions in a divorce.

I dunno, at least NASCAR's not in danger of losing a third of it's grid by Daytona. Unlike other motor-based sports I could mention.

I always imagined the hillside spots would sell out before the grandstand at PIR. Guess it's the other way.

lol, I wasn't correcting you. (just noticed it looked like I was)

Was just showing how they said it's "sold out" but there's only 67k seats. Phoenix previously had 105k in attendance less than 10 years ago.

Can't sell out a huge venue anymore. Reduce the seating capacity, tarp off the old seats with banners. Sell out the smaller selection. Resounding success!
