Great finish at Daytona

from GalCiv2 Forums

One lap to go at Daytona and Kyle has the lead from Tony Stewart. Coming out of the final turn to the finish, Stewart gets Busch a bit loose and swings around to the outside. Busch tries to come up to block but Stewart was already too far, so Tony ends up clipping Kyle's rear quarter panel and sends him spinning out into the wall. That started a chain reaction that sent a couple more cars into Busch, and several more into each other.

Busch's car was crushed from several angles, but he got out and walked away.

Stewart won the race, with Jimmy Johnson a very close second.

All in all, a great and exciting finish.

Moose...for whatever reason, I seem to always be arguing with you..but I do like your thoughts.

The move Busch made was waaay too late and the very same that killed E Sr...it was uncanny.  At least it was for the lead.  Both times a lot of good cars were wrecked by no fault of their own.   #5 FTW.

It was the same move that crashed Edwards a couple months back, too. Don't know if you saw it, but Edwards was completely airborn for a few seconds and was caught by the chain-link fence. He tried to block Keselowski, again coming to the finish.

He got out and ran to the finish line, just to finish the race under his own power.

Yeah, I saw it.  I especially liked Edwards response..Brad was just doing what he had to do.  Plate racing is going to get someone else killed, most likely a fan.  But I don't have an answer.
