    What a race that was! Sorry, but I think Brad got exactly what he deserved and Carl raced him just like he was raced. I was sorry to see that he got hit so hard and glad he's ok. I wouldn't want anyone to get hurt.
    Mark said Carl is almost his favorite driver
    The nudge that Brad gave Carl ,got him a little loose, was racing, but what Carl did to Brad was not a nudge. The result of that was nothing but a race ending crash. The type of racing done by Kurt Busch and Johnson a few weeks ago was an example of reciprocal nudge that won Johnson the race.
    The difference, Johnson gave Busch the same nudge he received, without a
    race ending crash. Carl has been guilty of this type of racing many times. THIS IS NOT RACING WHEN YOU TAKE OUT HALF THE FIELD>

    And so have many other drivers. Guess it's just a matter of opinion

    I missed the whole thing. I was on pit road and saw Carl cross the finish line and had just turned around toward VL when everything else happened. Figures. I missed the Carl vs Brad showdown when Carl won in Memphis too 'cuz I was jostling for the best position for VL pics.

    I have over 450 pics to dig through, I'm sure at least 100 are junk. I'll get the rest uploaded soon.

    I have to side with Anna on this one. I think Carl raced Brad the way Brad races.

    And all these drivers who say he went too far, come on. I had to laugh at Kevin Harvick. Thursday on Nascar now on ESPN he was going on and on about how it was low-down dirty move. And at the same time they were showing video of him putting the same move on Joey Logano and wrecking him earlier this year. Ofcourse, then Joey came across his nose, He didn't do it on purpose

    I didn't hear JPM say anything about it, but what about when he came out, laps down and wrecked Tony at Miami last year? What did Tony say? He knew had it coming!

    Dale Sr. wrecked Terry Labonte, @ Bristol for the win. And many worship him for what he was to NASCAR.

    Ryan Newman said it should be called ateemptted manslaughter. Really? I love ya Ryan, but you've wreck some ppl on purpose too.

    Maybe Carl should have known better, since wrecking Brad before did something he never expected (put him in the air). This time it him in the of oncoming traffic. Honestly, if he hadn't been hit multiple times and spun, I don't know if the same big deal would have been made of it.

    Very well said, Amy. All excellent examples.

    BTW...I was live and in person at that Dale Sr./Terry Labonte Bristol race. It is something I will never forget! The crowd EXPLODED!

    Never thought I would ever root for Kyle Busch to win. After Carl's comments on his justification for putting Brad into the wall I lost all my respect for him. He used to be one of my favorites. He is a hot head and will end up hurting or killing someone.

    Thanks for having my back girls

    I only seen the last 10 laps, but the last 3 was all I needed to see!
    Have to say I think Carl let up so he wouldn't get into Kyle Poor Carl.

    I can't imagine disliking one of my favorite drivers because of an accident that got out of hand. But that's just my opinion. To each his/her own.
