NASCAR...say what you will
But you really need to watch the last lap of today's race at Martinville. 'Nuff said.

Martinsville isn't far from me .... been to at least 4-5 races there, but it's been a while back. |

You're not gonna believe it. Probably the most amazing finish of any race I've ever seen...in any type of racing.

Thats awesome. I often said they should put wheels on the side of the car. Probably going to cost them quite a bit to replace that safer barrier

I haven't watched a stock car race in many, many years. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the cars looked different and even looked a little like the real cars. The back of the mustang looked like a mustang.
That's a ballsy move, but the caption said that he progressed to the championship. I guess if the option is fall out, or move forward, then whatever it takes. That was very cool.

I also liked the look on Hamlins face when he got out of the car. I thought he was going to cry.

Brings a new meaning to the phrase "he used the entire track".

I believe the term in the NBA is "posterized". You don't want to be the hapless defender as Jordan or whomever slamma jammas over you for the poster print. ***** was that guy today.

That was the Ross Chastain Don't give a Fu(k tour.
He had nothing to lose and everything to gain by trying it. I'm sure that Nascar will create a rule so they won't be able to do that again. |

Never seen anything like that ever!!! Talk about using up your race car and going for broke. That was the most awesome move I have ever seen in racing, floor it, ride the wall to the finish, hell of a move!!!

I guess the saying make or break time isn't appropriate there.

Try that in a F1 car!! Lol. I think he may have said he let hands off wheel and floored it. If it was a bad wreck and something bad came out of it he wouldn’t look the same.
