NASCAR 2012 Race 13 Dover

Dover.  Short track.  For a short-track race, it was pretty good.  Boring, but then again short track races are boring to me.  So be it.  Jimmie won!  HOORAY!!!  He was driving the Madagascar 3 car and wearing an afro circus wig which is featured in the movie.

Todd Bodine won a rain shortened race.  Congrats to The Onion!  He needed that win. His team, Red Horse Racing, announced the suspension of a team (Daytona Truck Race winner John King) earlier in the week.  A win for Bodine’s team can only help things.

Joey Logano passed Ryan Truex with four to go to win the Nationwide race.  Ryan led most of the race and had a dominant performance.  He was held up by lap traffic and passed by Logano. Good Show Truex!

Kurt Busch got into a beef with Justin Allgaier during the Nationwide race.  They had words after the race.  Reporter Bob Pockrass asked him about the incident and Kurt’s response was caught on tape.  He went mildly postal on Pockrass and NASCAR suspended Kurt for a week and extended his probation to December 31st.  Kurt’s owner, James Finch, is in a difficult situation.  Supposedly, they have a handshake agreement that Kurt can’t quit and Finch can’t fire him.

Next week: Pocono

GO 48!!!!
