[dt33345]

He did amazing winning that race!!!

[storm24awesome]

it looked like he just clipped the rumblestrip just before the back end started to come around

[gitargud7]

Does this program goes on sows like ESPN or Eurosport?

[1234noaa22]

do'h

[ToroRosso20]

Even the best of drivers make mistakes.

Good Luck Tony for 2010.

Knock that 48 off.

[HxCUNstopABLE]

funny thing is he won the race..

[GillyNascar2005]

BOO!

[PalmerMVP2009]

just look at the wheels come off the ground

[gokb18]

congrats to his win but race was extremel boring

[DaBloodyBrit5172]

YEEAHHHHHHH HE WONNNNNNN

[elculver2424]

That sucks for him. If that "thing" weren't in the grass like that, he wouldn't have any damage. Now he has to start in the back.

[kingofrunescapepking]

he don't care

[elculver2424]

I know. At least Pocono isn't as small as Dover because he would be in Jeff Gordon's situation. Jeff started in the back and was 2 laps down the whole race last week. He had a fast car but he couldn't do anything.

[24Tributer]

yes you have a good point, jeff had perhaps the fastest car on the track, but he couldn't make any ground up because he was the only car 2 laps down

[MrSonofthesouth]

You're right..I've seen wrecks where hitting the grass does more damage than hitting a wall..

[utubejjk]

that was violent. BTW, why do tracks have grass around the track? This thing happens and if you hit it just right going sideways, it can flip you over

[HxCUNstopABLE]

its called to slow u down

[utubejjk]

@HxCUNstopABLE the thing is, you hit grass and go faster. Grass has less coefficient of friction than concrete or asphalt, especially when wet or moist.

[SPAZZY1912]

@utubejjk

cuz concrete can crack easily and cost alot

and bitumen has to be resurfaced every once and a while, so, if it was all bitumen, it would cost too much resurfacing

[racerboy9ify]

@utubejjk its used to normally slow the cars down

[jrfan07]

@racerboy9ify grass does nothing to slow the cars down lol, take Elliot Sadlers crash for example. It's all there to make the tracks "aesthetically pleasing", basically making the infield look pretty lol.

[racerboy9ify]

@jrfan07 if i remember right that race had some rain but i get ur point

[sasa0887]

that sucked a lot
