    Kind of like NASCAR favoring Brad K to win the cup that one year. I thought it was funny that nobody gave him respect for winning including the Cap'n as BK was merrily getting hammered on live TV . Funniest post race ever!

    He was such a lightweight, 2-3 beers. But he was dehydrated from racing 3 hours so im sure that helped. It was hilarious.

    A few additions to make me feel cool.
    It has all gotten quite stupid. All the small rules that serve little to no purpose. I never got the 5 min thing. Teams should be allowed to thrash to get cars back out. If you don't want torn up cars on the track raise the minimum speed. The 7th man thing is fine but should not equate to a disqualification. I don't post much because the people who have little no understanding of the sport do nothing but throw buckets of BS out there when there drivers are excelling. It is what it is. Kind of like the commentators spending the majority of the race explaining the sport to people instead of calling the race. I miss Benny & Ned! The rules are BS now but there is no blatant favouritism, just some crew chief understand the rule book and know how to exploit it. The big teams simply got to smart for NASCAR. They need to take a bunch of the tech away and get back to what it was in the 90's.

    Rick Allen is a dipshit. He reminds me of Chris Meyers when he was new and didn't know crap about racing, except Rick has been doing it now for what....3 years? LOL

    Yea mostly the 5 minute rule was to improve safety, but it does more harm than good. They keep adding things to cars and rule changes in the name of safety that is making the sport boring to watch and more controversial than it needs to be. Hard to argue against safety though.

    I really feel the same. No excitement for me this year at all. Next year Jr. and Matt are done, so likely will be me as well.

    I always liked Matt but honestly I am not sure he wants a ride right now. I think he might just be over it.

    Matt should just dig up Robbie Reiser and go short tracking again. Or get a truck team going or something.

    Robbie still director of comp at Roush? I haven't seen him in years.

    Cassill just needs a good car. They’re driving old Yates stuff over there at FRR. I like the guy. The sport needs him. Like Deburrito, He has a solid following.

    They're both good drivers. Cassill has improved immensely. I'd like to see him in good equipment, he has a high ceiling.
