Title: How much...
Post by: Chris_ on November 02, 2015, 08:32:40 AM
How much did Rick Hendrick pay Matt Kenseth to take out Joey Logano yesterday so Jeff Gordon could win at Martinsville?  :evil: :tinfoil2:

Matt Kenseth is my new favorite driver :evil:

Here's a better video:

I'm no Logano fan, but that deal with Kenseth yesterday was utter horse shit IMO.  I expect NASCAR to hammer Kenseth's ass with penalties tomorrow.

I don't know if or how much cash Rick Hendrick is out because of this, but I do know that I'm a little poorer today after spending most of this morning planning a trip to Homestead-Miami Speedway to see Jeff Gordon compete for the championship.  :-)  The ticket office there was slammed!

I'll also be watching from the stands here at my home track in Texas this weekend.  :popcorn:

I despise cheaters and cheap-shotters.

This was both.

It was like watching 5 seconds of any given Ravens game.

I'm having a hard time finding a difference between what Kenseth did yesterday and what Harvick did last week.

I'm having a hard time finding a difference between what Kenseth did yesterday and what Harvick did last week.

If I believed Harvick did so on purpose (which I do not) then I would be in somewhat agreement with you.

If, for comparisons sake, Harvick did wreck Bayne on purpose as an act of self-preservation (and thereby gaining something), then what did Kenseth stand to gain from taking out Logano? (other than gratification :-))

As long as it's not my guy being punted( :-)), and it doesn't put someone in too much danger (like the video below), then I don't mind and actually enjoy watching scores being settled.  What I don't want to see is cars that ARE in contention being taken out by cars that are NOT in contention as part of some "score settling".  Yesterdays incident was just that.
