Can't wait to see the video when DOD puts it up. Have to ask though, how many times did you guys watching hear "OH BABY" and " Race of the year"?...lol

It was a good one. There where more than just B Shep that could have been players. Richards, O Neal, Dennis Erb and Frank Heckanast. Body language said Mark was ready to kiss B Shep for that win. Did anyone see the guy bent over checking out the Best #1 car, get pushed by a crew member. He was looking at the back, the damage was on the front. The guy got shoved right out of the area.

Bloomquist had a 5th place car and finished 2nd. Not too bad. Leaves Florida only 15 points from the points lead. Usually leaves 150 to 200 back. Sheppard is a wheel man.

lol.... And speaking of Rick ( not even gonna try to spell his last name), did you catch the one liners from Screven last night? The" nervous as Noah when he loaded the woodpeckers on the ark" and the one about gone as fast as a Hillary e-mail??? Both of them were funny as hell!!

Stinks for O'Neal. He looks like he has a good piece this year. He has been running a lot better so far, hope he keeps it up.

Sometimes it is better to be lucky than good and that certainly applies to bloomer tonight.

Congratulations to Brandon and his crew !!!!

Scott was given a gift and re-gifted it? That doesn't happen too often.

Just for the record, Erb had bloomer passed on lap 48 right before the caution. For Bloomer it was pick your poison tonight. Josh Richards showing that he doesn't needed to be in his Dad's car to be the man to beat. That is JMO so far this season. It is good to see O'neal back in the hunt too. Like to see a few different winners this year.

It sucks for Josh and Oneil but Scott said he seen the crash starting before it started and missed it. You can't call that the race of the year. We just got to see a last lap pass. Good run for BShep. He is a good dude

And he was hanging on for dear life when the chips were down.

Ole Bloomer had a big rye smile when he shook B Shepps hand, I bet he won't forget that anytime soon. It's not everyday you get to beat a living legend.

Richards and O'Neal were out of it by lap 40, anyone with any sense knows it. Bloomer ran to hard early and didn't save enough for the end.

Erb had it won on lap 48 for sure, caution got him.

Great racing thou!

I know they were taken out at lap 20 Captain Obvious. What i am implying is that they were both running the tires off there cars and wouldn't be in the lead at lap 40 !

Richards and O'Neal were out of it about lap 20. back marker spun in front of them.

In the post race interview, Scott said he saw the crash happening before it happened and he always watches way ahead. Josh didn't have much place to go but you gott give credit where it's due. Scott did a fine job of missing that one. That one could have been much worse than it was.

I agree he was given a gift for not being able to keep up with the 1 and 5 as they were not nose to tale. He was also lucky to finish second with a 5th place at best car. The 1,5,28 and 1r easily had him covered... He was given a gift.

He's never won the series by 1000 points.

So now you're padding his resume with 120 points?

No he wont. It isn't in and wont be in any court system because he doesn't have a leg to stand on. The "gift" in that is he has an excuse not to run any World Racing Group races. That's better than not being able to run them because they have a drug testing policy...
