Erki, you cant let the NASCAR broadcast SPIN meisters get to you.....otherwise you might start believing what you are watching isn't real....

[quote="Erki"]Er..pardon? Are you hinting that the "debris" is actually real? It was pretty funny that during the first debris caution(don't know if there were any more of them as I went asleep around the 100 lap mark) Rusty said something like "Oh I dunno if that debris(piece of tape) could actually cause a puncture...".
quote]
sad thing is, the announcers didn't pick up Jooyner spining out on purpose, just look at his spin, I'd like to see ESPN pick up the onboard telemetry to see what Jooyner did before the spin, cause it look like a very good controlled spin to get a caution, then it took nascar 5 laps to clean up something, or to give enough time for Jooyner to change the shocks.
also the Montreal track is awesome, but I prefer LemansBrian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)

As for the intellengence of the broadcasters ( you have to be aware of what corner you are at) this is because most oval track guys have their minds explode at the thought of more than 3 corners. I can imagine what a race at the old Ring would do to these guys....."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".
