The contact with Josh and McDowell happened because McDowell's front end had folded under in turn two and when he went in to turn 3 he hit the wall and turned down the track looking like he was trying to either enter pit or get to the bottom. Josh was under O'Neal for fourth from 19th and didn't have anywhere to go. No fault of Josh's what so ever. Hated to see Josh's night end as he was one of the fastest cars on the track late in the race and would have been in the middle of the last 10 lap battle.
Making comments about someone when you (Pennsboro23) were not there is just plain jealousy. Because it was clearly no one's fault. And by the way I stopped by Josh's car after the race ... he and McDowell were pitted side by side. McDowell came over while I was talking to Josh and expressed how much he hated ruining Josh's Night. I think McDowell felt really bad about it.
It was one of the best Eldora races since the 2006 World 100. Great job by the Eldora crew for the work done after all the rain midweek.
