NASCAR is a joke!

I'm a Little E fan but he's the only driver who could make that pass an not get black flagged.Do you think if Tony Stewart was making that pass he would have won the race?What about Sterling in Daytona trying to avoid a wreck but still gets black flagged.If NASCAR has a rule it needs to apply to all drivers.

I am not the biggest Dale Jr. Fan but if you look at the replay real good he was already to the door before he went under the line! Plus he really had a big run on the car beside him.

He may have been to the door of Kenseth's car but he was still behind him and my understanding of the rule is you cannot pass below the yellow line and if he was behind him when he went below the yellow line and was ahead of him when he came back above the yellow line that's a pass.

 

 

If you are to the door that means you are in the process of passing! Earnhardt Jr. was at the bottom of the track and Kenseth & Johnson were racing at the top when Junior got the run with a push from E.Sadler. Kenseth came down to block but Junior was already two for ahead to get the block!

I know what your saying Sequatchie and I agree that he was in the process of passing before he went below the yellow line. I still say in the process of passing and making a complete pass are two diffrent things.I still feel if it had been another driver he would have been black flagged.If a driver can't go below the line to avoid a wreck then nobody should be allowed to drive below it at all.That takes all the guess work out of it.

I watched a show on speedvision(?) last night...and they said the rule is that you "can't improve your position by going below the line." I think Jr. did exactly that, and should have been black-flagged.

 

I think NASCAR should just end these controversies by getting rid of the line, anyway.

    • I think Gibson County is a top five team this next season but I do agree they will drop off a lot after this year.  Westview lost a ton and will be down this season and hopes of returning to glass house again is slim.  The run they have had is super impressive!
    • My take on GC for this year: Based on what I saw last year and heard this summer, I’m not sure GC could surprise me next year with any outcome. Wilkins is a great coach - they could win the district and region and go to Murfreesboro. They could also come in third in the district and not get out of region. The two returning starters are very talented but Guru is right that they didn’t always play hard last year. The other three starters are good enough in their roles for GC to be successful. There is no depth. Foul trouble could be a problem - Wilkins may avoid it by playing a lot of zone. An injury would be catastrophic. I hope they have a big year and Wilkins rides off into the sunset in Murfreesboro because, without some significant transfers, there are some tough years coming in the next few.
    • Daniel Boone coming down to 3A makes this much tougher. They added a couple transfers to the Flores girl. Cocke Co, Northview, Greeneville, and Daniel Boone - only two headed to Murfreesboro.
