Looked like he couldn't make up his mind if he wanted to pit or not.

 

[bksballer89]

I knew edwards was speeding....You could clearly see that.

pit road penalties are so freaking important at Daytona and Dega.

The 48 got a penalty as well

Kenseth fan here he grew up in Cambridge, WI like 10 miles from my area and the race track he used growing up id 5 miles from me and he still once or so a season comes back to race there.

The other one #95 McDowell his sponsor pays my bills

But both are shit out of luck already today

That pit road penalty on JJ was nit picky. They're getting crazy with this shit. If the point is to keep everyone safe, then they should just make the pit crew wait until the car comes to a stop before jumping the wall. This is getting like the nfl with these ticky tack calls.

I did Richard Petty @ Charlotte back in 2002 or 2003 and YES. It was fucking awesome! Highly recommend it.

I did one for NASCAR-style pickup trucks at Indianapolis Raceway Park 3/8 mile oval. It was pretty cool.

Sorry, folks: Not sure how I double posted that!

Not really. It's a big deal on the small tracks and the cookie cutter tracks where it's hard to pass, but not a big problem on the super speedways.

If it cost you the draft, you are toast.

exactly. those guys got lucky because another caution happened so fast but they would have been in trouble without the caution.

Late in the race maybe, bu not this early. All it takes is one caution to bunch the field back up. I've seen drivers go from last to first in 3 laps at Dega.

I smell a wreck

and that depends on how many cars are a lap down. Taking a pit road penalty can be a killer. Anywhere.

Come on #4!!

Both Edwards and Johnson are already back to racing in the lead pack. Edwards was up to 12th a couple of minutes ago. Like I said, not a big deal at this point.
