It wasn't contact in the heat of racing... going hard into a turn he "bumped" the car in front on the inside corner of his bumper trying to spin him out of the way. It's one of the oldest and dirtiest tricks in dirt track and NASCAR.

Slippery slope... how do you define "the heat of racing"? Last corner of last lap? First corner of first lap? Re-entering the track from pit lane?
Rules are rules, either contact is allowed or it is not.

Very exciting finish but not a clean win. I'd have had a lot more respect for a clean second place than a dirty first.

Well they did protest and they were told to go pound sand.
Races are won on the last lap not on the first lap. |

Just wondering if the consensus over their is "dirty racing" or "he did what he had to to win"...

It's about the same as here.
Some say he had to do it to win. Some don't like it. |

I hate to say it but my wife and I left early and made the ride back to Tampa(brother in laws house) to watch on SPEED. When we got to his house he doesnt even have the channel and I wanted to kick his ass. So I missed the best race of the season, I just wanted to stir the pot. I think i might hit VIR because its close and I have a excuse to go burn the 930 up.
