The Nationwide race in Atlanta ended with contraversy
« on: September 01, 2012, 09:55:53 PM »
First off, I'm not a Harvick fan, I root for the 18 car in Cup.

Harvick was wearing out the field. Then the yellow came out With 6 laps to go, or so and the yellow came out.

Espn's in car camera recorded Brad Kesolowski taking a water bottle and tossing it out of the car.

ESPN recorded the track cleanup crew picking up the water bottle.

Nascar stated that the reason for the caution was not the water bottle which means that Nascar knew that the 22 tossed junk on the track but it also meant that the 22 was not going to be penalized.

It's been probably 10 years since I've witnessed such flagrent cheating and to top it off, after the race, Brad was like "What, what...I need to see the recording."

I've sent an email to ESPN to urging them to keep after this story for the sake of Nascar and also to Penske racing.

I know I am tilting at windmills but this was just too obvious for even Nascar to ignore.

Drivers intentionally causing cautions happens all the time. It is nothing new in NASCAR.

Crew chief to Dale SR., "Man. We sure could use a caution."

Dale SR. to crew chief, "Working on it."

...and few seconds later, he put someone in the wall.
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin
