Tony got blocked but we've been through this blocking discussion before


i don't entirely disagree, but i think blocking vs. trying to run someone down into the grass is a bit different. that being said smoke has done his fair share of blocking and causing big pile ups.

If Denny got past Joey cleanly, the 11 would have won. He had fresher tires than the 18, and had the 11 and 22 not been racing each other they could have blocked the 18.


Denny wasn't going to clear Joey in the turn. The best Denny could hope for is that Joey is riding at his quarter-panel heading to the finish. They both were going to have trouble making it to the finish because of how hard they drove their cars into Turn 3. Kyle would have had a huge run on both of them coming off of 4 and would probably have dived to the apron and passed them both.

Eh, the contact scrubbed off over 10mph based off the tracker and they were half a mile from the finish. At this point it's ifs and buts. Agree to disagree
