I know there's a number of people on here that have calling for someone to get DQed over excessive braking but I doubt anyone thinks this is legit. Obviously some kind of payback involved. Don't think the word "smoke" has ever been in the rule book with regards to excessive braking. Always been a "starter's discretion" kind of call as far as I know. What I never see mentioned in the many discussions I've read about guys lighting up their tires at the finish line is the fact that it's a fail on the driver's part regardless of the safety aspect. You're heavy on the brakes to scrub speed. If your tires are lit up you're not doing that! No different than spinning on the starting line. What Jerry did there was pretty much text book on doing it well. Nice job!!
