Matt Kenseth

[CIRF]

please list drivers that have had their wins away from.

Ricky Rudd was black flagged while leading the last lap of the 1991 Banquet 300 after having turned Davey Allison in turn 11 just before taking the white flag. Rudd went on to lead the last lap, but when he crossed the finish line he was shown the black flag instead of the checkered flag. NASCAR deemed Rudd's contact as rough driving and awarded the trophy to Allison.

A more blatant incident took place at Bristol in August of 1999 and the win stood. The rough driving in this instance was perpetrated by a guy that had Billy France Jr. and NASCAR DEEPLY in his pocket.

Therein lies the difference.

Somebody's hair just caught fire because you mention the Bristol incident again.......but your right, and good post as always.

One incident that no one (including media) has made a comparison to is a few years ago when tony spun Vickers at Sonoma... Vickers was off track for multiple laps, came back out drove half speed around the track until the 14 caught him going into the hair pin and he stuffed him up on the tires. I believe tony was winning the race at the time. No suspension for that... I believe kenseth is gonna take some of the fall for harvick's race altering move as well. When Gordon ruined clint's chase no suspension was granted... plus Joey's chances at winning one of the next two races are very good. Nascar consistently inconsistent.

so why no suspension for logano for Kansas..he more or less said that he dumped kenseth on purpose for blocking...so its ok to take a guy out as long as your the first one to do it, but if you retaliate then your suspended?

Saddest part is you have 2 pussies sitting in cars with tens of thousands of dollars of damage and both were afraid to get out of their cars. Neither got out for quite sometime. Any short track one if not both drivers would be scrambling to get out of there cars and going to confront the other driver.

Its against the rules to leave your car now since the Kevin Ward deal.

No kidding............especially after just hitting the bong.......people can get hurt or worse.

Kenseth or Lagano? Or both???

"If you take something from me, I'm going to take it back" The Code

The Racers Code in the words of Ricky Craven http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=14047292

Yeah, Craven is an easy target to trash back at but I agree with him. And I'm also appreciative of Hamlin's instantaneous tweets of outrage upon the two race suspension.

LOL, while everyone is choosing up sides, I will remind everyone of how Gordon took out Bowyer and cost him a real shot of winning the championship. He did that because he said he didn't like the way he was racing him. Hum. Gordon got a slap on the wrist. I thought that was even worse than what happened yesterday. Although, what happened yesterday was very unfortunate.

Now now TS. We know you are getting all apprehensive now that Mr. Gordon has a decent shot at winning the title for the fifth time, thus destroying your old four and no more chant of old on here. Let's not forget that Gordon would have two more NASCAR titles under the old system before the CHASE was invented he actually had the most points two more times if the old system had still been in use.

Bowyer started that conflict first, and as stated by Gordon, He was racing Bowyer clean, but Bowyer did not return the favor.

Anyway the season is not over yet, so don't get to hyper or lose too much sleep over the possibility that Gordon might win.

Besides, WE could have a big 4M celebration after Homestead right???

I think his point was they are both pu$$ies... Just like 85% of the other drivers in nascar. I've seen nascar sanctioned short track drivers get out of their cars since the ward incident with no issues. There are no real men left in the sport

[Cardirt0]

Sat Down for 2 races that is so unfair.. I can see a fine but not a sit down...What they are saying you can crash someone on the same lap but if you down some laps you cant...

[drano]

Set him out for 2 races is nothing what is he going to lose.

[reddyfreddy]

People keep saying how Matt ran him into the wall at Kansas. He was behind Kenseth, not beside him.He may have run into the wall, but he did that himself.

I'm curious as to what constitutes a "real man"?

Yes, Denny Hamlin gave a great interview on the subject of "The Code". Wonder in Nascar will summon Denny to the Nascar hauler a.k. Principals Office?
