  I don't have the finish, my camera can't get those shots so it was hugs and high 5's all around.
  
  Jr is one tough customer

  Welp, when I come to Daytona...I know who I'm going with. LMAO Great pics Speed...thanks for sharing. I'm definitely going to have to try to get my hands on one of the tires from this weekend too.

  FYI: I added the race over on the vBookie forum for you racing fans
• GoChiefs

  

  Thanks TS..put mine in.

  Kyle was an asshole at first there, but then answered the question honestly once Yocum (I think) pushed him.
  
  Old tires, then side-by-side and losing the air kind of drove him down a little causing a wreck. Kudos to the TNT pit reporter to get him to talk it out instead of being his usual prick self.
• GoChiefs

  

  Montoya vs Kyle has the potential to be a good feud! LOL
• Speedofsand

  

  SHIT !! I was at pit exit the first 60 laps, then turn 1 & 2 until Stremme wrecked. I left and was home in time to see the big one. I'll bet it was spectacular in 3-D haha.
  
  I am beat, skipped the Rolex race today because of the rain, and Darius Rucker sucks outloud. Jr's car sucks, he said it was rattling his eyes like the splitter was bottoming out everywhere. This wreck shows how much of a lottery this track is to win.

  Kyle is always an asshole. Matt Yocum is from Daytona, Seabreeze High School, same as Alan Gustafson, and the Allman Brothers.

  A wreck on the final turn before the race would have been official? Well, I'd have never guessed!
  
  Forced drama. Every restrictor plate race has had this.
• GoChiefs

  

  YES! Kurt still pulls out a 7th place! HOW THE FUCK DID THAT HAPPEN?!??!?! LOL Jr. benefits HUGE from all the drama!

  No shit. Kurt drove home a crushed up beer can to 7th

  gordon showing why he is still the best driver in the game. #2 in points now, with a shitty crew chief
• Speedofsand

  

  Good thing it was a 400 mile race and not 500. I'd rather go to the King's Royal than last night's bullshit. Nothing could have followed Friday's drama, but the 400 just sucked. Can't wait to see what a new track will bring. I went to the first few new ones at Talladega and it is nice, except the track is gouged up by trailer hitches at the turn 3 crossover.

  I also picked up a card with some ways to win, there will be a sweepstakes July 25 - Sept. 12
  also picked up a pack of 3" round stickers that look like the tire but in the wheel it says 'Help Support Our Troops! visit Goodyear.com'. I can send you a few dozen if you want.
