Bottom post of the previous page:

Another few chasers in the wall: Edwards and Montoya. Jeff Gordon only spins and takes an eoll penalty to change tires.

God damn it. That's it for JPM.

I was gonna say earlier, this is only bad for JJ (good for us) if the other chase contenders don't crash out as well, if they do then JJ is off the hook and so far their doing a pretty good job of trying to crash.

A good result for Mark Martin then and a bad one for JJ, now only 72 points between the two. Two races to go, can Mark do it?

I got to say I thought it was a pretty impressive job by the 48 crew last night to get JJ back in the race. Considering the time it takes to build and prepare a car normally, they got that car back out and to a reasonable lap speed in a very short amount of time. :thumbsup:

Commentator was saying after 100 laps what a fantastic race it was. Have to say it was one of the worst of the season in my opinion. Its got better since then though, boy did I enjoy Montoya giving Stewart a punt!

Nascar is fast becoming as boring as F1.
It's good for JJ, they spend the entire year working towards the chase, wing it through the chase and pickup another title, but it's bad for the sport if you could call it that. Grandstands are half empty nowdays.

how is possible the same winner in the last 4 years? It's a matter of the format?

I'm not complaining my friend, I'm just asking. I don't follow NASCAR but I believe that the regulations make the car pretty similiar, so it should be really the most consistent driver the one who wins. I'm sure JJ is one of the greatest but such a streak was not seen since the 70's in NASCAR. I'm just asking, is he the best to interpret the chase for the cup format? (I wanna learn)
