Dale Jr. has finally won. yippee. As Tony Jr. said, the fans are making too big a deal out of it. That's been more annoying than how good Kyle Busch is doing. Happy he got it though.

Im glad Jr won but he shouldn't have. Not this race at least. If the race would have stayed green then Kasey Kahne would have won. Jr would have ran out of gas by then. Kasey had plent and was kinda pushing Jr so he retained a reasonable speed or whatever.

Yeah, I was hoping he would win a race that he actually had a really good car. Although he did have at least a top 10, if not a top 5 car, I think Brian Vickers should have won if NASCAR didn't screw him over.

I think NASCAR did it on purpose, like they have done for Jr. in the past. (TALLADEGA, 2002, I think when he past Matt kenseth below the yellow line to win) They didn't let vickers go and they didn't penalize him for passing the pace car. I think some of the officials are Jr. fans.

Now come on. These conspirious official stories are getting a little out of hand. It's no easy task calling one of these races on the fly. In sports like hockey they can blow the whistle and do video replay after video replay before making a call. NASCAR can't always have usable footage on everyone all the time. It's hard to keep track of people while they're even doing caution speeds. Sure, maybe Vickers did get a little screwed when Martin was started in front of him, but as far as Jr. passing the pace car goes, who cares. He was the leader, and it's not like he was half a lap ahead to get a jump on the restart.

I watched the caution replay again and he did not pass the pace car at all. He only got up next to it, maybe a foot or 2 ahead of it, if they were gonna penalize him for that, then that is stupid. And yes, NASCAR did say they screwed up and messed up Vickers.
