revenge on brad k. edwards was inside and turned right into his rear. brad flipped and was lucky enough to land just short of the fence, rolled back on his wheels and walked away.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Yep, and he tried to get him twice and he was 150 some laps down while Kesolowski was top 10 I think. They had some contact earlier which Edwards saw in a replay and admitted it didn't look as bad as he originally thought and still went out and punted him. I'm not sure Kesolowski got into at any other time in this race, although it's entirely possible. Edwards admitted afterwards on Fox that he didn't think the flip would happen. Personally, Edwards was so far down, he should have waited for Bristol, he was bound to come around to him at some point.

Kesolowski deserved it. After all the crap he has done to Edwards, and some of the other drivers out there, its about time someone put him in the wall. I agree it was kind of a bad wreck; Edwards may have been a bit out of line, but Kesolowski had it coming.

Yeah, should have drove him right into the wall and killed him, that would taught him a lesson he never forgot

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Or better yet, maybe if Edwards has gotten lucky Brad's car would have went into and through the fencing and killed a spectator! Now that would have really taught him a lesson!

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Come on, nobody deserves to get punted in the tri-oval at Atlanta. Edwards made himself out to be a complete idiot and the incidents are starting to pile up for him. Kesolowski deserves to get hit, but not by a guy 150 plus laps down. You'd riot if the roles were reversed.

Getting lost in the Keselowski/Edwards drama is the fact that Kevin Harvick finished in the top 10 for the fourth straight week.
I know its extremely early in the season and it won't mean much in the long run, but still a very impressive start to the season for the 29 car.
Good for him. I've always liked Harvick since the day he took over for Senior.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
He would be doing the sport a favor. Kesolowski sucks, and doesn't deserve a Cup ride. If he wants respect from the other drivers out there he needs to earn it.
As a fan, I have witnessed spectators getting killed during a race, so yeah that is exactly what I would like to see happen.
I would riot because Kesolowski has already crashed a bunch of people before this. If you were watching the coverage they showed a bunch of the crap Kesolowski has done in the past. I call Carl wrecking him racetrack Karma.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
You're the kind of fan that has ruined NASCAR. Really, even if you are joking about killing a driver, it's still sick. Ugh. Kesolowski is a young jerk but he doesn't deserve that.
I would have thought people were smart enough to know I was being facetious, but I guess you aren't. Next time I will add the just for you.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Reports are that NASCAR will announce today no suspension for Edwards.
Translation: Almost killing a guy - and admitting it - is worth less than the ratings they'll get next week.
Edit: Or as a Tweeter put it: "Apparently, it means if you send a car into the fans, you're ok. If you use an illegal wheel nut, you lose $250k & 100pts."

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
I am gonna catch some s*** for this, but hear me out...
NASCAR was built on rivalry... You have it going all the way back into the 50's... Unfortunately, NASCAR has not had a true rivalry since Kurt Busch/Jimmy Spencer. And by true rivalry, I mean one where the guys simply don't like each other, not one where the media hypes it, yet the two guys go and grab lunch together after Friday practice is over...
NASCAR is slowly learning that they effed up majorly over the past 7-8 years, and are slowly trying to return to their core values (insert Redneck joke here)... In that world, you have to have some volitility, IMO... You see it week in and week out at the short tracks across the country... Rivalry is a racing staple, not just a NASCAR staple... Allowing the drivers to police themselves is key to bringing this back...
It seems kinda hypocritical that everyone bashes NASCAR for micromanaging things, yet when they stop doing so, everyone is up in arms about it... Was it a bonehead move by Carl? Certainly... Obviously he had no idea that the car would become airborne (and honestly, when was the last time anyone saw a car get air outside Dega or Daytona?)... That was just a freak occurance... I think NASCAR is going down the right path by allowing Brad K. to simply take notes, and wait for Bristol in a few weeks... Allow the drivers to police themselves...

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Rivalry is fine, but booting someone at 190 miles per hour is unnecessarily dangerous. Wait for a slower track, or slower place at Atlanta and do it there.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
I agree with Juve, Edwards defiantly owed Kesolowski some pay back, but he has to be smarter about it. Atlanta and 150 laps down, taking out a top 10 ride with three laps to go is not the right time or place. Edwards hiding behind his Facebook explanation that if he did it at Bristol, it would collect other drivers is a joke. Bristol isn't really known for the "Big One". All he had on his mind was revenge, and the move was a little Days of Thunderish. If Edwards had waited until Bristol, I think 99% of us would has said, "Yep he owed him that, nice job, move on.", now instead we're ready to crucify him.
The other thing the stupidity did was take away an exciting "Can Montoya catch Busch?" and gave us a two G-W-C finish, which in the end was boring.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
Yes he does. 
Some people need to learn how to take a joke. Seeing a driver get killed is probably the last thing I would want to happen. I hated Dale Earnhardt when he was out on the track (cool guy otherwise), and I hate to admit it but I cried when he passed away.
Really, I couldn't care less about what you think, but calling me the kind of fan that has ruined NASCAR is completely off-base. I have been a race fan since I was a little kid, and its little punks like Kesolowski that are ruining the sport of NASCAR. Sadly, NASCAR drivers aren't necessarily the best drivers out there, just the ones who's mommy and daddy paid for all their race cars when they were kids. Race drivers aren't born anymore they are bred.

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
I didn't say that what Carl did was right... I just applauded NASCAR for not fining him or taking any additional action... They said that they are going to allow the drivers to police themselves and are sticking to their statement...

Re: 2010 NASCAR Season: You might be a redneck
The problem I have with self policing is who decides when enough is enough?Does Kesolowski now feel like he has to pay Edwards back for blowing up a top 10 finish? Does Edwards think he's even with Kesolowski now, or in Edwards eyes does Kesolowski deserve more?
And in a broader sense, will driver A ever really know why driver B hit him? When dealing with policing, intent is everything. Driver B could have made an honest mistake and driver A thinks it was intentional. Now you've got an innocent driver B who simply made a mistake getting hammered by driver A.
And, all this bs is going to cost the teams more money to fix the cars up. That flies right in the face of cost containment.
And there is the rick of physical injury involved, to the drivers, crews and fans. Surely NASCAR's risk management people don't like this idea. They are 1 hot away from a lawsuit.
I was a big NASCAR fan until the common template came out and they took away any ability to gain speed through aerodynamic innovation. The COT was a horrendous idea. This is just another reason not to watch.
