In fairness, Hetzel didn't do the same thing when posting last week's entry lists. So just a minor mistake.

EDIT: No XXXTREME Motorsports, that explains it. Damn.

Yeah whats Levine been up to? Last I saw Scott Speed was driving RallyCross in Brazil against Steve Arpin!

by BWard Tue Apr 23, 2013 1:43 pm

I have a feeling we may only see 42 cars turn up for Talladega.

Doubt it. The 19 will (probably) be there along with the 95 and 21. 44 probably won't show up though.

I changed the channel to espn where they're airing an nba playoff game because of how bored I was getting from watching the race...and I usually don't watch basketball.

Well, I guess Montoya's chances of actually winning a race is thrown out the window.

Now why the hell would the top 3 pit with less than 5 LAPS TO GO?!?!

Yeah. I'm pretty much eating my words now. But damn, Montoya was soooooo close to actually winning a race. I honestly didn't think Harvick would get through all of the cars like that. I hated that Jeff Burton couldn't do anything about Harvick. Up until Harvick won, it was looking like it would be an interesting ending to the race.

by JMac525 Sat Apr 27, 2013 11:20 pm

Wow, can't believe Juan almost won that. I'm personally not a fan of his, but that was very impressive by him tonight. I wish Jeff Burton could've held on there.

by Alta Sat Apr 27, 2013 11:21 pm

Really didn't pay that much attention to this race with exception of last 100 laps.

Last 50 were cool. Wish Montoya and Harvick got to fight for it...instead of an anti-climactic finish.

Fat Tony has been whiny as hell this year.

Soon as I saw Harvick sort out into 2nd behind Burton, I knew he had it. Really anti-climactic finish to the race. Neutral

Yes, because a totaled car sitting in the middle of the race track isn't a legitimate caution. Rolling Eyes

by AntmanB Sat Apr 27, 2013 11:47 pm

First Half was the usual borefest. 2nd half was race of the year material.

Yeah kinda dissapointed by the finish but harvick did go from 7th to 1st in one lap in Typical Harvick Fashion.

For Christ's sake. Did I say that anywhere in that post? No. I'm complaining about the fact that Montoya had the race in hand, but because races ending under caution are the worst thing on the planet, he has to go in the pits to change tires, while 5 other guys in front of him gamble, and when the green flag drops one more time, he gets held up on the outside, while Harvick easily tears through everyone in front of him. Do races ending under caution suck? Yes, but it's not like they were happening every week, but, you know, you interpret my post however you want, even if it is wrong.

by **Cynon** Sun Apr 28, 2013 1:34 am

I only caught the first 90 laps, 30-40 laps in the middle of the race, and the last 90 laps.

Still an awesome race.

It's the first time in a long time that I've actually stood up in my room and literally been yelling at the TV in support of someone -- in this case, Montoya.

I felt bad for him -- really bad -- because he had done so well and had run a stellar race until Vickers visited the wall. Also, I loved Kurt Busch's interview... looks like fat Tony reverted back to his IRL days when he would whine about anything -- even when he was so clearly at fault. Seems like Danica isn't the woman over at SHR, and it's shark week over there...

by Alta Sun Apr 28, 2013 2:50 am

I personally find it hilarious that Ryan Newman is the best driver over at SHR right now.

Tony Stewart VS Kurt Busch

That sure does sound like a familiar rivalry doesn't it?

by Spannerhead29 (Nelson) Sun Apr 28, 2013 7:10 am

HARVICK!

7th to 1st in 1 lap. Doesn't get better than that.

Sucks for Ambrose to get 42nd at a track he sucks at

by PYLrulz Sun Apr 28, 2013 5:27 pm

Though I really wouldn't advise for it, if Talladega turns into a snoozer again, the only solution is to do what NASCAR did back in late 2000. Taxi strip on the roof, and wickerbill on the spoiler. Of course, that means even bigger wrecks are inevitable, but at least those races were something.

by SpeedDemon37 Sun Apr 28, 2013 10:10 pm

Best Richmond race I've seen in a long time. Not that I don't like Harvick, but it would have been awesome to watch Montoya or Burton end their eternal winless streaks!

I was really impressed with Kurt Busch (both his interview and his performance). It's only a matter of time before Furniture Row gets their 2nd win. In a Busch v. Stewart situation, I previously wouldn't have thought that he would be the mature one!

Also, Keselowski was once again salvaging a decent run, but his car waits until the very end to drop a cylinder. Sad
