They call them Roush-Yates engines, but I have no idea what Roush is contributing to them. It's still Doug Yates's engines. They might as well still say Robert Yates Racing on them.
 
I have my doubts about the #2 and #22's strategy. Even if they do make it on fuel, if we get a late caution, if they don't have tires, they're both sitting ducks.

That's why I have no faith in it, if they think it can get them a win.
 
I hate to be this guy, but even with clean air, is this a reasonable pace to be setting? I mean, JGR failed inspection last week and only got a slap on the wrist... maybe they are exploiting?

All their drivers are in the Chase. Now is the time to bend rules. I am a huge JGR fan and now is the time to mess around. Actually smart.

I don't mind JGR (Obviously a big part of Tony Stewart's career is involved in JGR) but honestly, I think they may be cheating again. I don't really blame them though, if all you do is lose 20 points and get fined for a percentile of your winnings...
 
Cue the salty "Kyle Busch is a cheater" comments on Facebook.

:rolleyes:

No salt ment, just having a bit of fun.

Pretty much everyone cheats at some point or another. It's NASCAR's problem that they give teams a slap on a wrist- not JGR's problem for playing the game and bending the rules better than the other teams at this point of the season. If NASCAR wants teams to stop cheating, they need to get their heads out of their asses and enforce stringent punishments to keep teams from cheating or bending the rules. They encourage the teams to keep playing the rules because teams know NASCAR will only give minor punishments for breaking the rules.

Yeah, I know that. Just a shame that's what the sports coming to.
 
This is the kind of race that makes the caution clock not seem so bad
If the caution clock existed, the Penske team couldn't have even tried their three-stop strategy, because it would be impossible, vs being only improbable. I would rather watch a team dominate on a hard to pass track than see manufactured excitement ruin a team's hard work.
 
Also, even as fast as Busch has been today, he hasn't even come close to leading nearly every lap. It really makes you appreciate how thoroughly dominant Truex was in the 600, leading all but 3 of 400 laps, or whatever it was.
