    I'm choosing Joey Logano as my avatar. I feel he is a worthy ally.

    Wrong.

    Props to NASCAR for letting them run it to the finish, no reason at all to throw the caution there.
    Racing season is soon upon us!:smokin:

    NASCAR made the right call and let Harvick & Martin earn the win.
    The only thing a caution would have done is rob the fans of a great finish, cheat Harvick of a potential win and give Mark Martin a manufactured win.

    Some "NASCAR Fans", I swear... They b*tch even when NASCAR does do something right. No wonder NASCAR barely listens to the fans any more.
    I'm surprised any body hasn't b*tched about the absence of debris cautions in this race.

    Actually, if you look at a tape of the finish, when the wreck started Harvick was ahead of Martin, so the finish would have been the same.

    NASCAR made the right call this time. The cars were coming to the finish. Throwing the caution for those last 2-3 seconds wouldn't have made much of a difference in what the drivers would have done.

    Agreed.
    If NASCAR did throw the caution "exactly when the wreck started" like some people wanted. Harvick would have been given the win because he was leading right at the exact second Kyle started to turn sideways.

    Suck it up Mark Martin fans & sentimental favorers.
    Kevin Harvick won fair and square & Mark Martin lost fair and square.
    Not all races can't be like a Disney sports movie with the underdog or sentimental favorites winning.
    It could be worse. Mark could have crashed while leading like my driver did.
