I'll throw in Bjorklund or Joey Miller. Could be tough though with Wallace that much faster. I would say 10 to 15 cars on the lead lap by the half way point!

Why the hell did Blake just power drive Justin? Don't tell me he was paying back for earlier this year lol.........

Kind of looked to me like the season finale payback for the whole year. Surprised nobody else has done that to Justin! Have heard more than one driver with that same idea!

Funny, I covered the series the whole year and I didn't. Blake was pretty pissed after Justin's "over eagerness" took them both out in a race very early on, but many conversations with Blake don't substantiate your claims. Both seem to me to be good drivers and great kids. (LOL so I'm old and called them "kids", shoot me). So name another driver with "that idea". LOL Brian Keselowski dumped him at Berlin. The deal with Blake though seems to stick out in my mind as about the only time Justin "ran out of talent" as it were. heck, if he were a "dirty driver" he probably could have dumped Shredder in the first Toledo race........
Seriously though, I just saw a piece of that Iowa thing and Blake is just too good and smart a driver to do a "payback" that would take himself out, ESPECIALLY when competing not only for series points but a ROTY award, Justin was already out of that. I wonder what really happened. Just damn I'm hacked I didn't go to Iowa.

Iowa is indeed a great track! Expect NASCAR to at least have the Busch or Truck series there in a couple of years. Nextel Cup won't make there it until the seating capacity increases another 20,000 or more. Iowa only holds 24,000 seats now. That's kinda low for Nextel Cup racing.
