Points aren’t official until tomorrow. NASCAR can still review the tape and black flag Vickers for rough driving. Never going to happen, but chances are he won’t make it out of Alabama alive anyway. The Drivers Meeting (that he’s not invited to anyway) should be very interesting tomorrow morning.

I think Tony will agree with me that along with the paving, they removed all but the high groove. Who would have thought that a track as wide as Talledega, with room to drive as much as 5 wide in some places, would be reduced to one racing groove. Dale only had to protect the high side against all lone comers. Jimmie made the perfect move on him before Vickers assassinated him, but probably could not have completed it by himself.

Tony tried most of the day to run his preferred line around the bottom, only to find it just wasn’t the fast way to complete a circuit. I liked the team’s pit strategy, but it put him in the mix and he got wrecked out.

Please help me improve my page by participating in the 2 polls on the left, Thanks.
