Wow Bubba is in. How about Brad pushing his car instead of trying to win

Wow, can’t believe they made it through. Buescher gets win #3 of the season. Bubba gets the final playoff spot.

Was really Hoping Brad would have made a move to get a win for himself. Really was hoping Chase would get in, but wouldn't have minded Harvick getting in in his final season either.

I’m growing to like Buescher so good for him, he got a little distance on Brad in the last corner so I don’t think Brad really had anything for him.

Good for Buescher. It was cool to see the 6 push him to the win.

It's really amazing how much a change that Brad has made to that organization. There was obviously a lack of something behind the scenes that he has managed to fix.

Congrats to Buescher and RFK.

Hope Preece is okay. That was gnarly. Had vibes of Rusty at Dega in '93.

Clarifying my “meh” on Bubba, I’m just ambivalent about the guy these days and I feel neither happy nor upset about him being the 16th out of 16 people in a contrived deal. Because I hate The Chase anyway. It’s no way to pick a champion and there’s a special pot of sulfur waiting for Brian France in the afterlife for coming up with it.

Yeah he may have been up and walking but he looked kind of shaky. Wouldn’t be surprised if he had a concussion.

He apparently never responded on his radio after the wreck

Caution

Ryan Preece with a massive barrel roll, lands on all fours

"Talk to me buddy."
"I haven't heard him, have you heard him."
"Key your mic if you can hear me."

Safety officials are on the scene now

He's out of the car standing

This is the worst flip I ever saw with my own eyes, although this video doesn’t do it justice.

The thing about this flip, the initial flip was backwards, as in hood over roof.

And to show you how people with nothing worked magic in those days, Junie Donlavey rebuilt this car and Brooks finished second at Dover in it three weeks later and should have won except for some shenanigans by Buddy Arrington, who was pals with the Pettys, who stopped not once but twice on the track to bring out a caution in the closing laps and let Richard make up some time to win.

Dick Brooks flips at Talladega in 1975
