He definately left early, about 5 ft early but it still doesn't make it right that the Nascar official told both Carl Edwards spotter Jason Hendelsy and Bob Jeffries who is Tony Stewarts spotter that Carl was the leader. This was confirmed by both drivers spotters to Bob Dilner after the race. Face it Nascar didn't help the issue and the proper way to deal with it would have been to restart the race again. Like Carl said if he would have known Tony was the leader he would have followed him to the start line and then raced him. End of story part 2. Lol.

The fact of the matter is NASCAR only speaks officially to the crew chief, then never speak to the spotters, any information a spotter may have gotten would have been from an individual. NASCAR issued a press release explaining how things are done, and the explicitly said the only official information as to the position of a car goes directly from a NASCAR official to the crew chief on a dedicated radio channel. Anything a spotter had for info was not official and a mistake on his part for relying on it.

Happy hour final practice is over. Your 3 fastest are Almirola-Kenseth-Biffle. :smilieicon_ford::smilieicon_ford::smilieicon_ford: I know its just practice but the Roush/Yates engines are performing once again after there strong run at Daytona. Who is everyone picking for the race Sunday? Some of the other brands are running water temps that are a concern for 'Dega's 90 degree weather. Should make for an interesting race.

I sent Jimmy Fenig a text and told him to share the 17 setup with the 16 car. Moved him up from 22nd in 1st practice to 3rd in final practice. You owe me Troy. LmAO!!!

Qualifying is in the books at Dega. Jeff Gordon is on the pole with Dinger and Ambrose behind him. All 6 of the Roush/Petty Fords are in the top 11. Wonder how Danica will do today. I'm betting she will look good.;);)

Sad thing there is not much difference between what she did and what the Douche did to Hornaday last year. Be interesting to see if NASCAR gets on her case.

Yeah but the douches deal was under caution and he turned right. After he chased him down above caution speed.

Hornish says he had a right front go down and couldn't turn is why he ran into her coming to the line. He said she said riiiiight sarcastically to him. He's pizzed, she's pizzed. Gotta love Nascar. HaHa.
