Does anyone remember when Jr cussed on the set after the race, he said something like, my daddy used to do this all the time.

He was fined so many points and $$$, just wondering if it matched Stewarts fine???

BILLY,,, why do you think this was a planned event?
Why would Eury and Junior want to screw up a pole winning car and tweak it like you say?

How dumb can people be. The chase is on like the super bowl . Shouldnt everyone be on high alert not to act like a fool. How do u bump a pole car duh/. I say fine em. Or fire em. If u cannot say oh shit on the camera u definately shouldnt get away with accidently bumping the car.

This reminds me of the time me and a friend of mine were walking through the hauler area outside Homestead Miami Speedway. She nearly got run over by a Gator cart painted like Jamie Mac’s car. Thing is, she was wearing the colors of the 42 (Casey Mears at the time.) Conspiracy? Perhaps. The world may never know.

hmmmmmmm i think the driver of the gator should be fined $25,000 and docked 25 points for “actions detrimental to Stock Car Racing”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Man if it’s not one thing, it’s another bad thing for Jr.

Oh well, minor damage, but still, that truck driver with no

common sense better keep hidden from Jr Nation. Haha.

JR has had bad luck this year and this is just one more thing but if he is so overrated a driver as SOME think then how did he get the poll, buy good luck.

billy: Every car goes through Tech inspection the morning before the race. sure would be nice if people had a little knowledge of the things they post about. BTW congrats to Mikey for getting all 3 of his cars in the same race for the first time sence I believe the Daytona 500, I woncer if he will get a penility for saying cr_p in his intervue after he qualifyed, I hope not.

God, as soon as I read this article, I knew the conspiracy theorists would come out of the woodwork. It’s just some idiot with little to no common sense that stopped his gator in front of a 3000lb stock car! He wasn’t paid by Penske or sent there to Tony Jr to try and destroy the car…

13th and 14th place in the points are both Penske cars, did that Gator have a Penske employee driving it?

That’s what is funky about the chase, say your in 13th place late in the season and your teammate is out of the chase or already locked in it. Have your teammate wreck the 12th place car so you gain in the points…..simple.

Someone needs to find out why that Gator truck just stopped right in front of his car as it was coming off that scale. That is just not right, as Bill Engval would say: “Here’s your sign.”
