Thanks OP! Great racing up until the end... either the corvette did a 'dirty push' and got what he deserved or the porsche over braked in order to get a bigger over-brake from the vette and then avoid being overtaken on the straight... not really sure which, but regardless was a hell of a race...

Please tell me why anyone would watch nascar when they can see this kind of action?!

lol same here.


Watching the race, the corvette is the obvious faster car but the porsche driver had a great strategy IMO. You can tell that the corvette got frustrated (for example turning on his high beam) and thought he could pull off that stunt. Sucks his car got totalled. Hope he's ok though

Because that stuff happens every single lap in NASCAR.

Seriously, though, I love it all. I'm not a douchebag elitist motorsport fan like a lot of people are. *cough* f1 snobs *cough*

Lol, vette guy got OWNED! He deserves it for driving so dirty, blinding porsche guy with his highbeam, cutting the corner using the pit exit, and finally trying to spin out the porsche on the last corner of the race.
