Short and sweet--if you didnt watch tonites race you missed probably the best one for the year---close running all the way through with a killer ending,now thats what you call racing-----memories

Yes sir, one of the best I've seen lately. I like TNT coverage.

I am glad no one was hurt either. Hmm. I didn't know the king would be pacing the field. I liked the way the commercials were presented in the lower corner so you could continue to see the race.

I missed the race and had to watch the highlights to catch up on what happened. Looked to me the only Petty car that wasn't wrecked was the Pontiac The King drove on the pace lap. Man that was a wild hit Busch took from Kahne.

The race definitely had a WILD ending and of course the Busch one was involved. I am happy that no one was hurt because there were some hard hits given and taken before all the smoke finally cleared. There has been some serious debates about whether restrictor plate racing needs some major enhancements or not. I think there will be dangers involved regardless of how many more enhancements are made...granted, I am happy that the HANS device and safer barriers have been implemented over the years but what more can be done about the restrictor plates? All of you racers will have to educate me on that one.Also, it would have been great to see "The King" pace the field but I guess that is one of the tactics utilized to make you buy tickets to the race, huh? I know that there has been alot that I've seen up close and personal versus on TV. Lastly, I love that you are able to see the race on a continous basis on TNT; however, I still think that there are too many commercials and way too much talking by the commentators. That's my two cents...

Seems to me,now this is my version,Nascar should have up played the Rchard Petty thing a lot more,fans would have come just to see 43 in true color with the one and only behind the wheel cut a couple of pace laps but it seems Richard was destined to be cut out of the picture,bet Fox wouldnt have missed that crowd pleaser and probably would have showed it several times during the race---Even Kyle raised the issue in prerace saying mama might be annoyed about it,even Richard chimed in saying there isnt no restricter on my motor,i thought about just going around a few laps till i caught the rear of pac then pull in---that would have been a hoot ---someone just missed this one completely-- bet Jeff Glider wouldnt have let that chance slip by ha ha ha-----memories
