DEGA

Okay, so the whole thing with Tony Stewart was blown out of proportion. It's good that NASCAR actually told him that they put out the caution for a reason. Okay...then Fox obeyed, by showing us ALL the debris during the cautions. GOOD!

I think that all this "Tony was wrong for saying that" stuff is just wrong. He had a reason for it at the time. He saw what everyone has been saying, including myself.

(Hey, maybe he saw my blog, I linked it to my Infield Parking page...HA! Yeah, right.)

The race was a snore for a while, because everyone was walking on egg shells, so they didn't 'slam draft' the person in front of them.

Then there was the unfortunate wrecking of Casey Mears, by his teammate, I think? Was it Gordon? He was pissed off and rightly so.

Hey, Jeff, it's not VICKERS in that car, okay? Lay off!

In Dega, blown motors a plenty. Looks like no team was immune, nor was any manufacturer, with the 15 of Menard and the 00 of Reutimann.

Drafting partners are also hard to come by, as they are when it comes down to the final laps. "The big push from behind" might as well be a kick in the ass for some drivers. Some even can't rely on their teammates.

And look...guess who's in the lead? I wonder how THAT happened. Not the WWE, my ass. Geeze. And NASCAR thought that Tony was wrong? Yeah, right!

They ADDED 3 laps to the race? WHAT?! So, Gordon can make sure he wins? What is up with this? I really don't get it.

Race is over with a final caution...the field better be locked up.

At the end, fans throwing trash and what not at Gordon. REAL classy. I'm proud to say that I would NEVER do that, even though the race was fixed, so he could pass Earnhardt to win 77 races.

CoT wasn't used this race, but it will be, in October. Can't imagine what will happen then. (An aside...does anyone have a schedule of when it's going to be used? I don't think the fans will ever know. If anyone has a link to any information on the net, please comment with that information.)

On to RICHMOND! MY favorite short track...on a Saturday night.
