Clint Bowyer stated a mon key could drive that #20 car to a win and I am her to say yes it can and it did. I am proud to say it was a GGW Racing driver taking that #20 to the win and not Denny, ESPN covered the driver switch during the smoke show, just like they covered up Carl Edwards saying NASCAR got it wrong by not showing what Carl was talking about. Lets get back to the winner. After showing the replay of the Wallace family coming togather for tea and coffee on the track they came to the #20 car sitting on the track and quickly cut to the fireworks.
I got the 1 second frame showing who was driving that car to victory. It was our own Hotfootlori.
I talked to Lori after and she said Tony had set it up with Denny for her to drive the car and if she won do to a great smoke show so they could switch and no one would know. I said you didn't do a very good job on the smoke show. She replied I just won at Daytona and kinda forgot I had to switch with Denny till he was screaming at me to get out of the car. I told her she did a great job and its to bad we have a to be sneaky till NASCAR lets us race again.
On the Carl I left the oil pan cover off because it was the only way I could beat Dale Jr Edwards was right and NASCAR wrong, it brings me to protesting a call in sports. This is called a sport but yet when a NASCAR official makes a call during the race the driver/teams can argue the call but if they try to protest and win they get nothing for it.
How bad is it to look at a replay and see how wrong they got this. The first frame you see the car spinning and you see Carl's white car and Clint in back and even while in the grass the ESPN ticker green light switches to yellow and he is ahead of Clint. You know the yellow had to be drop first before ESPN would switch that light on the screen.
Carl is still ahead of Clint.
Still ahead and still Green light upper left on the ticker.
Now it changes to yellow and Carl is ahead.
Now if Clint passes him any where after this NASCAR broke another rule because Clint is below the yellow line so he can not gain another postion to add to no passing when a yellow is out. When this lap started Carl was in front of the Clint and up to this part he is still in front. Some might say maybe Clint was ahead of Carl back at the last scoring loop? Then Carl would have said that I think and not said about the grass. Let say it was back at the last scoring loop. This will show it stinks of a system if going by the length in time before the next one you have that much of a lead after the last scoring loop to be put back is wrong.
To end up like this instead of top 5 you get a 11th place, yes by his own fault on how far back he endded up.
Makes you think they can not have this going on after this much time on getting it right when a yellow comes out. Which brings me to my point about protesting. If Carl did he would get nothing out of it because NASCAR can't figure were he might have finished. My way is if a team/driver think they are right NASCAR should let them go under protest so at least they have a spot to place them right if they win it. If they lose on a protest it is dead last.
Uh Oh...guess I shouldnt have read this blog as I hadnt watched the NW race today. Was out visiting the family. Well now I know the scoop. Kudos to Hotfoot for helping get Hamlin to victory lane (wink). Thanks for the inside scoop, Forensic!
Forensic 2
It brings to mind the saying by Washington's character in the movie Training Day .......King Kong ain't got nuthin' on me . I'd beg to differ as of now as a relative of his allegedly drove in a race.
Is that an indication as to the level of the intelligence of the drivers within NASCAR ? LOL !!!!! I sincerely hope not !
Gerrel - so sorry I gave away the ending to the movie.lol. Still worth a look due to how well they all raced with only 3? caution flags. Lets see if the cup boys can follow suit and have a great race.
Cheers
Tophat- What not leaving no babes for me to droll over? lol. I am wondering if he will get any flack for saying that. Weeks before the older Wallace stated any of the starters could have drove the #20 to victory instead of the rookie Joey Logano.
It seems that car should be look over alittle more during inspection time? lol. I don't think its just the extra horse power. Cheers!
A few races back NASCAR did admit that they screwed Vickers by making him restart behind Mark Martin. Vickers had passed Martin 2 laps before the caution! I wonder if NASCAR made up the money that Vickers lost?
Great job getting this up so fast, J Dog. Skoal, bro.
Hany- I forgot about that one great pick up. This is why I stuck up for Robby Gordon last year for staying out after being black flag and finising the race. But he blew his chance when he dump Marcus. I got to see the sun rise this morning doing this post.lol
Tonight start is 1:00 so I just might see another sun rise or some heavy rain that is due.lol cheers
Photogr - I can't wait, I am sure it will be a great read. I can't see NASCAR setting it up for Toyota to win big, even if they got more money to blow.lol Cheers
Forensic thanks for getting the scoop on Lori. Now if she could just switch places with Smoke in the Cup race tonight, maybe he will be in victory lane too. lol
Now Forensic you would not be saying that there is something funny about that Nationwide 20 car would you? lol Not at Gibbs Racing. None of that funny stuff goes on there. It is all in the gray area. And that is legal. lol
Photogr to answer your blog Idea: Yes NASCAR is the WWE on wheels.
Great stuff Forensic, I didnt see the NW race, I was in Vegas still but this was a good recap of the madness. I am sure that 20 car gets a thorough inspection after each win...its the mon.keys that make the difference!!
GGW Racing, Frame by Frame, Show Your Moon Tour Blogs are what you get. Sorry all who like my music but for now its on hold cause it was the thing locking my computer up on here. Till I get the sound card figure out.
