    They were both a lap down...Blocking should not be tolerated before the last lap of the race..
    I remember when hot rods were all home made.

    Jr. lost his cool and the race when he couldn't find his pit stall! It might be a case of lack of color vision which is more common in males than many want to admit. He had a good car but pit problems TWICE caused him to really push and he was trying to get the free pass from Vickers a lap down when he could have/should have been running in the top five. Even so, once the leaders wrap around and the whole field is running two wide the race is more like billiards/pool than racing! Some people like the wrecks but I hate to see those high buck machines turn into scrap!

    Oops! You are absolutely correct... they were positioning themselves for the lucky dog or what ever they call it spot...
