cubsfan2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think "Outlaw" has been put on probation by NASCAR a few years ago,but anyways,let's just hope Kurt does not have one of these "cases" again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unocal Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Kurt's no longer the Outlaw: http://nascartalk.nbcsports.com/2015/03/11/no-more-outlaw-kurt-busch-says-hell-have-his-signature-above-door-of-car/ And he made a Twitter profile change: His Twitter Bio used to say "NASCAR #Outlaw & driver of the Haas Automation #41." Now- "2004 NASCAR Champion. Driver of the #41 Haas Automation Chevy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSUcelticsWON95 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Truex Jr has been pretty on this year, and that's good to see. I hope he snags a couple wins this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCDuck Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 An encouraging run by McMurray. Shame he couldn't hold on to the win, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcowboyfan92 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Harvick at Phoenix, Jimmie at Dover...you're not going to beat these guys at these two tracks. You'll need them to beat themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Due to reaccuring blood clots, Brian Vickers is forced to step out of the driver's seat of MWR's 55 once again.I hate to say it because I actually like Vickers, but I really think he needs to retire. In the end, your safety and health is way more important. Best of wishes for a speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSUcelticsWON95 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 If Jimmie or Brad weasel this out then I'll be mad. Harvick is of course a winning car, but I wouldn't mind seeing Kurt win either.

rvrdgsfn Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 Results from Fontana:1. Keselowski2. Harvick3. Kurt Busch4. Menard5. Newman6. Earnhardt Jr.7. Logano8. Truex Jr.9. Johnson10. GordonWhat a race, especially near the final lap. Kurt had a dominate car but so did Denny & Matt Kenseth. Too bad they lost it in the pits. Kurt almost had it but Penske has had some fast cars. I got a feeling its going to be a battle between Penske & Stewart Haas for most of the season. Next up, we get some short track action at the paperclip, Martinsville. It will also be Chase Elliot's first Sprint cup race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcowboyfan92 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 AJ had an extremely poor day...finished 1 lap down in 35th. Worst finish so far but he just didn't have anything all race long. Had issues around halfway through the race had to pit under green and got a few laps down and never recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 So how does anybody justify them throwing the yellow at Daytona but not today? No consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Unrelated to the race itself, but I noticed FOX usually does, for example, "100 laps to go" when the race enters a certain point. I did notice for today's race, the did exactly that but also added what lap they were on. I like that setup much better because for me I like to know which lap they are on as opposed to a lap countdown Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ones at Daytona weren't, requiring safety crews to be dispatched.That doesn't wash, since they threw a flag when David Ragan spun and was able to move. The inconsistency is what's irking many fans. Oh what could have been.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
See Red Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 Exactly. Also, they need to verify Biffle doesn't collect anybody else, doesn't leave any debris, and can move or else it would be a caution. That can't all be done in a timely enough manner. They need to throw the caution when it's clear there's a wreck (based on the precedent set at Daytona, anyways), and in this case, that would have been before Keselowski made the pass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubsfan2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 That race was damn good,but that last lap pass was all it took for ''Brad''.Also,i'm happy that NASCAR allowed Brett Moffitt to run for ROTY.I think that he will outright win.Plus,I'm ready for Martinsville.And I am excited for Chase Elliott,making his debut on NASCAR's top tier level.Expect for him to be somewhere in the top 20.

raysox Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Look, Biffle's car had no damage and didn't collect anyone else. Everyone was expecting them to push the yellow button, but they knew that they may get out to calling the race dead. Yeah Daytona's crash happened on the backstrech and wouldn't have effected the race before the finish, but there was damage and safety is the main issue. They could see that Biffle was trying to turn the car around and would've ended it if he couldn't move. Yeah it's inconsistent but this was a one car accident, not a pile up. Imagine winning the 500, you're excited and not expecting safety trucks right after you get out of turn 2.And believe me, they are inconsistent. Talladega Nationwide race 2 years ago, they wrecked coming to the trioval, and Kasey Kahne won on a 3 wide finish, which was overturned cause of the yellow. They had literally 2 and a half miles to find out about the crash and slow. But there were atleast 10 cars scattered on the track.Yeah, they could've let the race run 500 more feet or whatever, but there was an actual reason to throw the yellow, unlike Biffle on Sunday. You guys are complaining that they let them finish. If they through a yellow, you all would be like "CAUTION FOR THAT?". You guys are the inconsistent ones. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jc... Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Like every other sport, I hate when officiating is different in the beginning of the game, and they swallow the whistle at the end. Rules are rules. If that's a caution at lap one, then that is a caution at lap 200. If it "ruins" the finish, then so be it. You can thank these ridiculous GWC finishes for starting this crap. On another note, I'm surprised NASCAR hasn't read the riot act to the spotters, 90% of them question NASCAR's integrity on every late debris caution.
