    Wild and crazy for sure, they sure trimmed the field down a bit two laps before the checker. Smoke and the late Earnhardt have the most wins @ that track. Was it Nascar that created that pit lane mess? The pits are open .... nope, just kidding they are closed.......

    I must say I was pleasantly surprised to see they must have made some kind of change on the push car thing. Dave did you happen catch what that might be and is it for all the tracks, have we seen the last of that?
    I have two brains, one is lost and the other is out looking for it

    NASCAR had nothing to do with creating any mess! The cars behind the guys pitting didn't notice the leaders pitting! They literally drove over them! The leaders were already committed to the pits and the Biffs crew figured they would take advantage of the situation but it cost him big time! I wondered where all the spotters had gone off to?

    The changes were not for all tracks but for the superspeedways only. And in my opinion, was a mistake. NASCAR closed up the radiator opening so the cars would overheat forcing the breakup of 2 car pairings pushing their way to the front. Now we're back to follow the leader and wait for the last 10 laps then let it all hang out and then tear up equipment!

    Instead of dragging this out for 500 miles, Daytona & Talladega should become 50 lap events! At least it would cut out all the boring ride around for hours...
