Joey Logano Wins A Controversial CampingWorld.com 500! Matt Kenseth, Dale Earnhardt Jr., Ryan Newman, and Denny Hamlin Eliminated
A Very Controversial Ending Sends Dale Earnhardt Jr out of the Championship Hunt while Logano wins his 3rd race in a row, 5th of 2015 and 2nd Restrictor Plate Win tying Dale Earnhardt Jr on those tracks in 2015.
Many Drivers who were vowing for great finishes like Trevor Bayne, Bobby Labonte, and even Michael McDowell have wrecked racecars now because of a certain driver in the next round who shouldn't be.
Within Inches Jr Is Eliminated......
This Is The Controversy that sent Jr fans going in a frenzy, Throwing Beer Cans, Water Bottles and other Objects at Joey Loganos' Ford Fusion.
NASCAR Stated on Tuesday that only one G.W.C attempt would be used. Then Explain why we had to do it again after we tried the first time. The Same Driver would have went to victory lane.
On the 2nd G.W.C Attempt, As Joey, Brad, Jeff, and Jr were heading towards turn 1 in the one and only attempt at a green white checker The big one happened behind them. Per NASCAR's Decision Joey Logano was just a foot ahead of Dale Earnhardt Jr when Race Control hit the button turning on the Whelen Caution Lights sending Joey To victory Lane and Jr to a disappointing 2nd Place Finish and out of the championship hunt. As I walked out of the Talladega Superspeedway I asked many fans their opinions of the finish and many agree with me that Joey was in the lead and he was the right driver In victory lane.
Harvick Eliminates Others On His Way To The Eliminator Round
This is one that ended the race. Kevin Harvick was the certain driver I was talking about above in the fact that the first time they attempted to do a G.W.C Harvick went to the top of the Track out of line off pace. The Good and Bad thing for Harvick was the fact that cars in front of Kevin wrecked so he would go back to the position he was in.
On the second restart, I don't drive a race car but I think it would be hard to go anywhere or accelerate without shifting and then turning the car that went around you just because he didn't want to ram you. I understand if you have an issue but come to pit road and fix that issue instead of having an issue and jumbling up everyone behind you. This wreck destroyed a lot of fast cars like the #95, 14, 10, 32, and many others.
NASCAR Source Driver Of The Week
After much thought and consideration Martin Truex Jr will be this weekends Driver Of The Week. He had a fast lap in qualifying that was disallowed after he went below the yellow line. Martin started 43rd and even fell a lap down but overcame all the adversity to finish 7th and move onto the the Eliminator Eight! Congrats Martin!
