blues deville Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 For any NASCAR fans who saw the Atlanta race, should Carl Edwards be parked for at least one race after putting a top ten contender on his roof and then some? I like Carl, he is a licenced pilot who flys himself to and from most of the races but was that an almost deadly payback? Watch the attached video to see the incident and judge for yourself.http://racingwin.com/park-carl-edwards/bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitch Cronin Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 I don't think he deserves any penalty for that. Yes, it was pay-back, for numerous events, but still... if you look at Edwards' line, all he did was maintain that line and give Keselowski "no room". He didn't actually "turn right" at all... his hands went right only as contact was made, but then he had to at that point.The damned "wing" on the back of those cars was a stupid mod.... for the exact reason shown.

Mitch Cronin Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 ....and I think it was really the 42 car that got hosed in that.... I think Montoya was going to catch the leader in those last few laps, if there hadn't been a wreck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blues deville Posted March 9, 2010 Author Share Posted March 9, 2010 Apparently 'the wing' is being removed soon with the old spoiler returning to the cars. Never liked the look of the wing and it only creates lift when the car is going backwards.http://www.nascar.com/2010/news/headlines/cup/03/07/cedwards.wrecks.bkeselowski/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kip Powick Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 Carl has been put on probation for the next three NASCAR races..... and apparently, (cause I don't know), that is a pretty undesireable status to have as a racer.NASCAR wants to get both drivers together and have them "clear the air and get back to clean honest and hard racing."

J.O. Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 NASCAR wants to get both drivers together and have them "clear the air and get back to clean honest and hard racing."Clean honest racing? That would be a first for Keselowski. They probably wouldn't say it in front of a microphone, but there's a good number of drivers in the series who think he had it coming to him. When you don't give an inch in the first laps of a race, you send the message that you don't expect it in return. My prediction - someone other than Edwards will turn him at Bristol next weekend. Probably Hamlin or the Shrub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
