    Actually, not even an offical lap was scored between JD and Owens crash.
    Your top 3 in points finished 20, 21, 22. Wow!

    The time line at Florence is not buried in line with the flagstand. This isn't the first time this has happened there.

    Kinda makes the flag stand seem a little pointless. Rice was ahead of the flag stand there’s no doubt about it.

    The time line is also at a strange angle if i remember right too, it's not a straight line basically. Jameson was given a win there several years ago when it was clear that Cody Mahoney was ahead of him at the flagstand.

    You cant go by what you see on tv as well. The camera angle is way off!

    If their transponder is mounted in the same place, theres no doubt!They dont lie!

    What if the transponder line was in the middle of turn 1 and 2?

    It’s not way off. They said on TV it’s a couple feet. You could see when it reached the 90 degree point. Rice was ahead by at least a foot.

    Earl didn’t get screwed. He drove a great race and earned the W. He’s had a tough year and he’s a good dude. I’m happy for him. The story is FLORENCE. The heats aren’t always great, but the features are often times legendary. Last night just added to the Florence legacy.
