Vickers and Kyle paid back with one bump. It's just racing.

I think Jr's act was uncalled for. Vickers had a reason to make the block (free pass) Jr should not have clipped him. I HATE Kyle Busch but i think he has a legit beef with this one.

Sorry but I have to agree with Alan on this one!! Ah, but they sure don't want/need a riot in the stands now do they??!! JR is a favorite for so many and it's all about him for those--again, the real racing is down the tubes!!

Given the really lame finish to this race I'm glad there's a little (actually a lot) of controversy. Ratings for next week's race should be through the roof.

Only becuase everyone will fall asleep before having a chance to change the channel. Fontana knocks me out like a drug.

Agree with those who say Jr was wrong.

Also agree Fontana is often boring.

Jr was totally wrong and should have been penalized 5 laps like Leffler yesterday. Jr was having a bad day because of two pit stops and was mad about it. Then Vicker's blocked him and ticked him off. Of course he's not going to say he did it on purpose.

The Fontana race is always boring. If it's a nasty day outside I'll watch it.

It should be interesting to see all those empty seats in Fontana. CA has a real problem filling the seats when things are good!! And Luvs, you are correct about Jr.

Jr definitely should have been penalized but I knew he wouldn't be. as for the race itself I'm just glad it's over I hate restrictor plate racing.

Congrats to Kensith though

Jr. made a stupid move, he made a few that day actually. Being a Shrub fan, he handled his interview rather well, and another reason to hate restrictor plate racing. It's a loooonnnggg season though, and Cali. is a boring race.............golf on Sunday!!!!
