Did I see the end of the NASCAR race correctly? Carl & Greg number 1 & 2. How did that happen?

Alot of hard work! Also isn't Edwards leading the Busch series by a bunch of points?

On another note - I hope John Force can make a quick recovery. I would like to see Ford in the #1 spot in the Powerade series. If not this year, next year.

most likely would have been the 3 tops spots if kennseth wouldn't have lost the motor,he was fast and led the most laps.

Edwards car was found to be too low after the race. He'll just get a slap on the wrist for it though. 25-50 points and 25-50k...

25-50 points is a lot of positions in the points standings right now,so it is more than just a slap on the wrist since the chase is going on and carl is 3rd in points after yesterday. 25 points would put him down to seventh,50 points back to eighth spot. his right rear was found to be low,which is not an advantage,you want the right rear to be high,so he didn't have an advantage over the other guys

If it wasn't an advantage, why would he get in trouble for it?

because NASCAR thinks they are right up there with god when it comes to handing down the rules. it is their way,or it is wrong,no gray area any more with the new car. even if it is under the specs and no advantage,it is still wrong. Biffle hit him in the rear after the race and bent some stuff up,I hope they find that is what messed the car up and don't take any points away from him. Only two fords in the chase,and Kennseth took a hit in the points when he blew a motor. enough bad things can happen on the track,don't need any help from nascar!!!
