AAA Texas 500

Its been nice, but the Walking dead is on and i am a big fan because its shot right up the road from where I live. About 2 hours that is.

I think his point is that if you watched the video of the fight, you saw Harvick come in. Kenseth has had words with Keselowski during the chase, Others as well have had bad dealings with Keselowski this year. He is a marked man on the track and you may see lots of teams race him dirty to show him its time to clean up his act or feel retribution.

Harvick has never cared for Keselowski, but Harvick won't jeopardize his championship hopes at by far his best track at Phoenix.

Neither will Kenseth or Hamlin.

If Brad advances to the next round, and either Gordon, Harvick, Hamlin or Kenseth doesn't advance, Homestead will be where the retaliation comes into play, but if Brad doesn't advance to the Championship round, then it would be rather pointless IMO.

Then you saw Harvick go up and push Brad after the race. He is pissed at Keselowski too. No one likes this kid.

Yeah, I saw that. He's my favorite driver out there, but honestly, I think he should have stayed out of it. Everyone was just talking until Harvick pushed Keselowski, then all hell broke loose.

Gordon and Keselowski both have busted lips, and Jeff looks like he might have a small black eye, couldn't really tell if it was bruising or just shadows, and I'm sure some crew members have marks as well. One of Brad K's guys took a pretty big hit towards the end of the fight.

Take care, bud, been nice chatting with you.

If Jeff doesn't win it I hope Newman does without a single win. That will stick it up NASCAR's ass.

Newman is my second choice as well.

My preferences go:

1. Harvick
2. Newman
3. Kenseth
4. Logano
5. Edwards
6. Hamlin
7. Keselowski
8. Gordon

Cot Damn!! 7 pages to discuss what could have simply been chalked up as a racing incident? I'm not laying the blame on anyone, it's just racing. It fucking happens. Now, with this new format, winning is everything and Brad, Jeff, and Kevin wanted it and the only way there was through Jimmy, who had the strongest car. All I see is Brad, Jeff, and Kevin fighting to get up to and around Jimmy for the Win.

I've been arguing the racing incident part for a while.

One thing about it, a real fight will get people talking about it. Hope NASCAR doesn't penalize either driver. No way this race gets as much publicity without what happened, and I guarantee ratings for a sold out Phoenix race will be a good bit higher than they would have been without it happening.

It was a racing deal and Jeff got his panties in a bunch.

Simple as that.

I've been wanting to get into iRacing for a few years. I used to race NASCAR 4/2002/2003 alot back in the day. I see alot of the same people in the NASCAR leagues now that I used to race with back then.

Yeah, it's made by the same people who did those. In fact, they bought the rights to the code from viniwhateverthatcompany was and the beta testing for Iracing was actually started running on n2003 code.

It's good, pretty damn expensive though because you have to buy every track and every car.

I think it was Psych Ward that posted about a personal conversation he had with Roger Penske, and Roger told him that he told Brad to remember what happened to Kurt Busch following the incident with Kenseth.

I do have to wonder, what's gonna happen to NASCAR when these owners die. They're all getting pretty far up there in years.

Roger Penske- 77
Rick Hendrick- 65
Richard Childress- 69
Jack Roush- 72
Joe Gibbs- 73

My take as well. Emotions run high when the season is on the line, so I can understand Jeff getting upset. But to me, it was just a racing incident.

That's fucking awesome right there.

Jeff Gordon, Jeff Burton, Dale Jr., Jimmy Johnson, you already have Stewart, and there will be other drivers, same as it ever was.

Probably right. It'll be weird for me. I was born in 91, so these have been the only big name owners I have ever known.

To me, Brad has more of a resemblance to Beavis than Butt-head.

Especially with the fat bottom lip he's sporting tonight.

I hear ya. I've been into racing since I was a boy, late 70's to early 80's. My Mama finally took me to my first race when I was about 15, 86 or so, because racing WAS NOT a family event back then, and I have bee hooked ever since.
