Exactly, plus his first hit on Davenport's left rear quarter panel wasn't a rub, he jacked Davenport's left rear off of the ground and got him sideways and almost spun him out.Originally posted by Highside Hustler25 View PostFox, I don't think it's because of the contact as much as it is his attitude and casting the blame on the other guy when he was definitely the aggressor.

Oh my gosh, he 'almost' spun him out..... big deal. These guys 'almost' spin out on their own every lap, in fact the less talented ones do. I'm glad there are guys like Ricky, Bobby, Larson, etc that'll race hard and occasionally crumple a 1/4 panel. Drivers need to quit whining and race the others accordingly, it'll all take care of itself in the end.Originally posted by TBSprintFan View PostExactly, plus his first hit on Davenport's left rear quarter panel wasn't a rub, he jacked Davenport's left rear off of the ground and got him sideways and almost spun him out.

I agree, I thought it was a bit disingenuous when RTJ tried to play victim and claim favoritism. The other laugher was when he declared JD crazy for wanting him to lift and use his brakes instead of turning him sideways. I only saw videos but it looked like he got caught napping or misjudged traffic and when 2 cars suddenly went by he just went balls to the wall and nailed him. I respect RTJ's ability behind the wheel and I think he was robbed last year by a silly ill conceived format borrowed from a company on the way down... I'm sure it'll all work out, I remember when JD was first getting some good rides and going banzai a little too much, he evened out and I think RTJ will as well, but I'd appreciate them owning up to mistakes and over eagerness, instead making excuses, kids do that.Originally posted by TBSprintFan View PostExactly, plus his first hit on Davenport's left rear quarter panel wasn't a rub, he jacked Davenport's left rear off of the ground and got him sideways and almost spun him out."In the Republic of Mediocrity, Genius is Dangerous." - Robert Green Ingersoll

The previous race Davenport missed two opportunites to take the lead from O'Neil but didn't go for it. He's not interested in hard racing or starting from anywhere other than the front row anymore. RTJ has picked up his family and moved so many times the past few years to make a living in the business, Davenport hasn't been that hungry in years. "Don't criticize what you can't understand.
