So in today the NNS Indy debut, Kyle Busch jumped the restart on lap one, NASCAR didn't black flag the #54. Fast forward to the restart with 20 laps to go. Brad K and Elliott Sadler are 1/2 and coming to the green. Brad spins his tires/doesn't get going and the 2 of Sadler gets a HUGE push from his team mate Austin Dillon. Sadler gets to the lead and NASCAR black flags him.

Now tell me what was different one lap one and with 20 to go that caused Sadler to get penalized but not Kyle? NASCAR shouldn't have black flagged the #2 if they didn't do it to the #54. Not to mention Elliott was running for something far more valuable in the win, a 100k bonus, and extending his points lead. Now with this BS call he drops him down to 2nd in the points and may just cost him the championship.

Gotta love NASCAR, the most inconsistent and worst sanctioning body in all of sports. :good!:

Robin Pemberton just admitted that NASCAR effed up and confirmed #2 didn't jump the restart. Guess that makes everything all freaking better...

I guess you have not been watching F1.

Red Bull has been found in breach of the rules twice this year, with no penalty!

Did they come back after the race was over and admit they freaked up the call?

:rock::eek:hmy::ermm: Seems someone gets screwed that shouldn't and those that should, don't. Of course, that doesn't always happen and they get the right person.:whistling:

Yeah, that's BS!!!!!!!! I honestly don't think full time cup drivers should even be allowed to race in those races. I guess they allow them to boost attendance, and tv viewership.

I agree that full time cup drivers should be allowed to drive in those races, but would the Nationwide series stay a float without them racing in a few races?

Nationwide would survive, but barley IMO. NASCAR makes more money letting the big boys race in the little league

No, they've been found to be outside of the "spirit" of the rules. AKA the rules were poorly written.

The #2 team just turned in a pretty damn good statement race tonight.

The handful of cup drivers in the field are the ones who sell tickets. Without them the NNS would pretty much be ARCA. I wish they didn't run there either, but I don't ever see it changing.

I am glad that NASCAR changed the rules to where the full time Sprint Cup guys cannot win the Nationwide championship.
