Good call NASCAR.
	Winning is the only thing!

We'll Kevin said it... it was a pitiful day in the pits! Air guns! Lug nuts! How many races has the 4 team lost on flip'n lug nuts! Two? Both Dover races in 2014. Not saying he lost today on the lug nut deal ... Jimmy must have magnetized the horseshoe when he gave it up! And that 13.3 sec pit stop the 18 team pulled!? UGH! Kevin had the best car ALL day. Ultimately, I'm going to blame this on the track and a lack of multiple groves! Single lane made it easy for Shrub to keep Kevin down.

its always something.in the last 3 or so seasons we have watched atleast 40 races like this where he had the best car and should had won but something happens.im tired of the rigged WWE nascar.they did so much obvious stuff in the race to get kyle the win,and long before they didn't call a uncontrolled tire on the #4.i have never seen the stuff happen for any other driver than what happens for the #18.the trolling newbie kyle busch fans here don't think so but we have seen the rules be changed,ignored and added just for the #18.what other driver have they done that for?
all the rules is what is really killing nascar especially since they based most of them around one driver.in a sport that is rigged against you how do you win?

For this first time this season, NASCAR is taking cars from each manufacturer to the wind tunnel for aerodynamic testing.

Following Sunday’s O’Reilly 500 at Texas Motor Speedway, NASCAR officials announced the Fords of Kevin Harvick and Joey Logano; the Chevrolets of Jamie McMurray and Chase Elliott; and the Toyotas of Kyle Busch and Erik Jones would undergo wind tunnel testing on Tuesday.

“As we’ve done in the past, NASCAR will capture cars from each manufacturer for the purposes of a wind tunnel test. We feel this is an appropriate time in the season to do so,” NASCAR said in a statement.

Fords have won four of the six Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series races so far this season. Toyota has a pair of victories – including Kyle Busch’s win on Sunday – and Chevrolet’s lone win was by Austin Dillon in the season-opening Daytona 500.

they are basically going to compare the 3 and make them either A: the same or B: give one more of an advantage......
