Who pushed him,Dave??

Johnson lost a tire, hit all by himself.

and after it was all over, Kaslowski is heading for Homestead with a 21 point lead, needs to finish 15th or better to win the Championship regardless of what Johnson does!!! Harvick ended up winning the race, his first this year...

Just watched the last minutes,,saw the replay of the scrap in the pits,,and for once,a Busch wasnt involved??hmmm..
What a way to finish a race,,with even more carnage on the start/finish..

Yeah, could have been really ugly....no idea why NASCAR didn't have the yellow out, Burton spun Danica out on the preceding lap, then they finish the race under green with Danica's car sitting backwards on the front chute....Stupid, just plain stupid!!!!

I saw her get spun,then going slowly down by the wall,and when it all hit the fan,,and the smoke cleared,etc,,she was in the middle of the track..Did she get shunted a second time??

Yeah, when everybody came around she got hit again!!! Fortunately she still had the belts on, could have just as easily been unstrapped and got hurt bad!!! Officials just got stupid and wanted to get the race over and weren't thinking, it was a green-white-checkered, and the lead car already got the white flag, so a yellow flag would have ended the race and prevented all the carnage on the last lap........ Like I said, just plain stupid!!!!

And that weasal Gordon should be parked next week for his cowardly actions! Laying in wait to retaliate and collecting 2 innocents in the mess.. They parked Busch for a couple 'cause his mess was on pit road, Gordon attacks at over 100 in the corner!!

What a brat and a shame he was once a champion...

And that last lap B.S. NASCAR has some 'splainin to do!!

Yeah, Busch did the same thing to Hornady last year at the truck race in Texas and got a week off. Be really curious to hear the announcements on Tuesday!!! (penalty day at NASCAR) Whoever was in charge of calling for a yellow should get the week off, too!!!! They'll throw a caution for a plastic water bottle on the track, but not for a blown engine, oil on the track in turn #4, and a car going 10 mph on the front chute~!!!!!!! Guess it depends on who you are as to when the caution is thrown????? Betcha Smoke has something to say about it as he owns Danica's car!!!

Yeah, I agree. The ending of todays race was bad news! It shouldn't happen. Now to go see the drags!

I will be honest and say that I will be pleasantly surprised if Gordan gets more than a slap on the hand. As for the yellow, the race should have ended under caution. The announcers even said she was out of the way but when the cars went around the corner, she is low on the track, but still on the track. I don't know if she saw it coming or not, but she took a heck of a hit.

I hate to say it (or see it) but you're probably right..... Also, on the initial hit, something broke on Danica's car and she dumped oil all over turn 4!!! Should be an interesting week with NASCAR either slapping Gordon's hand, as you say, while they are twisting things around to say Bowyer started it all and deserves what he got---do you suppose Logano and the rest of those involved deserved to be wrecked on the last lap and screwed out of a good finishing position too?????

The 'something' that broke on Danica's car was the result of Burton escorting her into the 4th turn wall - too bad as she was having a decent day.

Now, on to Homestead. If nothing else, that incident will help fill those empty seats like Yarborough and Allison's wiffle years ago. Teflon Jeff - probably a small to him fine and a 'to the end of the season' probation, unless it gets turned around and becomes Bowyer's fault
