I don't know how many people saw it but the LR rim on Steve's car was torn to pieces. I don't know how that tire was still holding air.
I wouldnt put any blame on anybody but TMac had to know that Kinser was going to pass him. They were battling for 2-3 laps and Kinser had the high line the whole time. TMac just got too high going into 1 to give Kinser room and he didnt back off and they made contact.
And yes, his rim was destroyed. I was surprised that it didnt go flat.
Clayton put on a damn good show. The way he gets above the cushion and then bombs through 2 and 4 is just insane and he makes up a ton of ground doing it. Just awesome to see him race. :Steer:Steer
