Harmon ran a Challenger in the Nationwide race at Daytona. The Ram and Challenger are good to use until 2014 or 2015. Dodge can't run Cup because of the new Gen 6 car.

Look, we had this discussion a bile ago. Dodge isn't in sprint because Penske went to ford. And yes, they already revealed their Gen 6 car prior to that.

We just didn't know if dodge was still gonna be around in the other series...

The Dodges that run in Nationwide and Trucks are second hand leftovers from last year fielded by underfunded teams. Crying or Very sad

I wasn't even aware that Dodge was letting any cars run in the NNS. I knew they said nothing of Ram in Trucks, so I assume there is still something there. Only reason there is one team this year is bacause all the Keselowski trucks have switched to Fords, because everyone else is tied to a manufacturer outside of the trucks, or Toyota is in bed with them.

The race at Phoenix was quite a bit better than Daytona. Not many passes for the top spot, but quite a few long battles throughout the field. cheers

Had I liked any of the top 3 finishers, I may even say it was a good race. Laughing

The dive by Denny on the last lap was incredible!! i sure thought there was gonna be a wreck going into 3, but brad let off, then Jimmy and Denny went door-to-door to the line!!

Glad to see Carl win, i missed those back flips lol

awww man I missed it Sad

NASCAR fine Hamlin for comments on the Gen 6 car and I think hes got a point, cant NASCAR just take it on the chin and work with the teams in sorting it? The racing is even worse than the 2 car drafting of a few seasons ago.

When will NASCAR learn. Cut the downforce, give them more power, and the racing (and safety) will improve. It almost seemed like Indycar had to learn this the hard way.

The drivers really aren't driving these cars as much as they should be, it's a damn shame.

by **LMR DarthMario** Fri 8 Mar 2013 - 0:46

looking like the production cars is better than it has been, but they still aren't "Stock Cars". they should really rename themselves "National Association of Race Car Auto Racing" or NARCAR

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Fri 8 Mar 2013 - 5:35

Still NASCAR... just somewhere "Stock Car" was replaced by "Spec Car" Razz

by Ax4x Chaddy Fri 8 Mar 2013 - 9:03

I would love to see them with no downforce that'll be alot of fun

by XPR Roadrunner Fri 8 Mar 2013 - 17:52

I like the two car tandem, cua you actually saw PASSING. It was the physical NOS button. These cars just can't seem to pass eachother as well as they could before, and that's on NASCAR and the Manufacturers, not he drivers. No reason why NASCAR should fine Hamlin. If they did that, they might as well have fined Kahne and Ky Busch who virtually said the same things at Daytona

by **Ax4x Bandit** Fri 8 Mar 2013 - 20:53

I think the bland restrictor plate racing might have to do with the drivers not being used to passing other cars without either someone pushing them or them pushing someone.

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 21:59

Best finish of the weekend:

Hard to believe that this Larson kid is only in his second season of driving stock cars.

by XPR Roadrunner Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 22:03

KASEY KAHNE FTW!!!!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

1st

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 22:14

Kasey got a very lucky break when that idiot Hamlin jacked up Keselowski on the last restart. I was a huge Kahne fan, saw him get his first Sprint Car win in his third ever start... but now I find him too polished, a bit bland.

Happy to see Kurt Busch get a 4th today... and even happier to see Hamlin ping pong his way around the track as Karma too care of him those last eight laps.

by RumbleBee 392 Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 22:17

Kahne got lucky when gordon blew a right front and took him and matt out.

Matt Kenseth would of won today.... jus sayin :p

Agreed to a point. Kenseth was the fastest car at time, but so was Kahne. But when it is time to go, Keselowski is one tough guy to get past. Twisted Evil

by RumbleBee 392 Sun 17 Mar 2013 - 22:49

yeah he was!

by **Ax4x Mikey J** Mon 18 Mar 2013 - 1:23

I gotta say that I do like the current Bristol. Puts on some good entertainment.

by RumbleBee 392 Sun 24 Mar 2013 - 22:33

What a race today, I should of went lol if you guys missed, catch the highlights! But even then not everything will get shown.

Some of the best racing I've seen in a long time at the bigger tracks.
