The Winston!!

hold up. Now we're talking about my era. I don't remember this.

Might have been 1990 Edisto, but the year Martin came in 2nd to Earnhardt he won the spring Richmond race only to have Nascar say his engine was illegal and take away points. If he had those points at the end of the year he wins the championship.

She butchered that!

 

[obxyankeefan]

1990 Martin's car failed a postrace inspection after passing 3 prerace inspections. Nascar fined him $40000 and docked him 46 points, he lost the championship to Earnhardt that year by 26 points.

Caution for rain. Are they counting caution laps tonight?

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

I didn't think they ca=ounted cautions. Or is that just in the final segment? I can't remember. They change the rules too damn often.

 

[Retroram52]

Right on oxyyankeefan. That mess that NASCAR created so Earnhardt would win the title the fine was a complete fabrication and corruption of the truth. Jack Rousch had evidence that the engine was entirely in compliance with rules and they still stiffed Martin and Rousch.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

Damn, "The Winston Million." I had forgotten about that. Good times, good days.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Drivers back in their cars and lets get this thing going again.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Looks like Kurt Busch has the early car to beat.

 

[Edisto_Tiger]

damn, almost fell asleep there.

 

[obxyankeefan]

Caution for Martin spinning.



Revise my earlier statement looks like who ever gets out ahead can hold it. Restarts could decide this.

 

[Retroram52]

Boyer has the lead on the re-start.

 

[Retroram52]

I'd like to see Kurt Busch dump Jimmy wussie boy into the wall.

 

[Retroram52]

And Danic? Useless as tits on a bull.

Jimmie Johnson = HUGE faggot.
