I was hoping to get some funny responses to my post and this response in right in line with what I was hoping for.

When they ran the next day Phillips went 148 and usually goes 162+. They are both great racers and there are only a couple on this thread that even remotely come close to there level. There are a bunch more aggressive drivers than the two in that picture I can assure you. Sherman said he was holding up a "10" after the job Phillips did on Sunday morning because he did a heck of a job.

Sherman or Tommy hit the brakes.....very unusual.......I think the oil just got up in the breather while braking lightly......

(that was a struggle....)

And Joe....what kind of comment was that....sometimes I get afraid and stop early so I don't go off the end....lol

No offense, but until you have been run over by some one using up his brakes at the top at over 150 mph (for any reason much less trying to get a win), dont make STUPID comments...its aint fun, ask me how I know...

I Have been there. I couldn't walk the next morning because I was so sore. So I guess I'm more qualified to make "STUPID" comments than any of these other idiots making comments.
