Your Turn: Did NASCAR Make The Right Call?

no win situration for nascar but they could of made him pay a fine or loss of points…carl flat out admitted he wrecked brad and at those speeds..nothin good was gonna happen

So much for NASCAR caring about safety.
If your going to turn someone over, just do it where there are no fans, hell, flip him out of the park for all we care.
I hope that more drivers play Opie and ‘aw shucks’ attitude, so that they only get a hand slapped.
NASCAR, you’ve set a precedent, be ready to pull more cars off the track in baskets from now on.

Whatever happened to suspension until the end of the year what was up with that. So what I am getting at is if Joey Logano which has been Biffed enough times I guess he is justified to Biff the Biffle..cool Just hope NASCAR will apply the same kinda justice to everyone. We will see but it’s NASCAR and they are subject to changing the rules at a moment notice.

Three race cooling period and then we are back to business at usual ..OH those fab guys will be very busy. Mr Clean got of on a technicality I guess..so make sure guys that you get held in the pits as punishment for the final few laps that the ticket..lol

While I agree that the biggest issue is the car getting airborne, I also believe that NASCAR can’t allow drivers to use the car as a weapon. It is great that they are letting the drivers settle these issues on their own. They need to be settled between 2 drivers, not between 2 cars. Wait until the drivers get out of the cars and let them settle their problems on pit road, in the garage, or behind the hauler.

NASCAR set the precedence. I just hope it doesn’t turn WWE’ish. And the salivating of NASCAR over the coverage of this made me throw up in my mouth a little bit.

It was a reckless, stupid move but I don’t think NASCAR could have done anything more considering the role they’ve played in trying to get drivers to be more aggressive.

Nascar just got more expensive. The number of replacement part will help the parts business but not the pocket books of sponsors and team owners.
Folks instead of going to Bristol save your money and go to the local track and watch demolition derbies. Less expensive and you can actually see who is driving the cars.
Nope no die cast or fancy t-shirts just good ole bash em up and two em home.
Bristol , and future races, will be the most expensive demo derby in the world.

And anyone else who cares to comment. LOL But I really would like Jeff’s opinion here.

As I’m sure you know by now I don’t think the lack of penalty was the right thing, but it is what it is and we all have to live with it. Much like we do with the “Chase” LOL My main concern was the safety issue but I’ve also been around to see Harvick get penalized for comparatively ridiculous things over the years so that could be an influence too. But ANYWAY, here’s the question.

Helton mentioned that there was a “line” that could be crossed and when it was they would step in. He said they would see it when they see it. My question is, What do you think this line will be? This was pretty much the most spectacular crash we could have seen and it wasn’t a “racing deal” with Carl so many laps down. I’m just honestly wondering where the line will be between “have at it boys” and “enough is enough.”

Do you think it will be if it’s an on going thing between drivers? I mean after the 3 race probation I would assume all bets are off again, right? So I’d think the boys be boys would still be on. So do you think the line would be crossed after an injury or something? Or something else?

I’m honestly interested in what you guys in the media think on this one. This is definitely a new era, much like the Chase,so I guess it’s just going to take some getting used to on all parts. Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!

They wanted them to have at it and police themselves and Carl did that after Brad Kesolwski wrecked him AGAIN. Brad should think twice about his driving now and learn to respect the drivers
