Apparently I am one of the people from the hill Saturday night that BP considers a "Bland Super Fan," but I really am not...I just thought that he drove an awesome race and deserved the win. For those of you basing your opinion on the video, you would have had to have been there to understand BP's behavior leading up to that final lap. On a restart with a few to go, he was upset that 2 lapped cars were placed between himself and Bland, he made a very big point of pulling up next to those drivers to tell them where he was going on the restart, and make sure they understood to get out of his way. The few laps left of the race, BP drove like a maniac, and I sat there knowing that if this guy gets up to Bland, he will take him out...I was right!!

...I don't know this girl but she is dead on!! Billy was never going to make that corner PERIOD!! It's over time to let it go, we are fixing the 11c and I'm sure Billy's car owners are fixing his 71 and it was just a bad deal all the way around for everybody involved. I just hope the black cloud floats away from us and Jeffrey for the rest of the year. You all will be seeing Jeff back in the 11 car sometime so stay tuned . . . .

I could watch it a 1,000 time's and i still say he entended to get by come h*ll or high water!!! Like everybody is say'in it is behind us, Move on..I still say it was a bonehead move, But we could go on and on, So this is all i will say on this. The only people i feel sorry for is the one's that have to pay to fix the car's, Because of that little word (IF).

It is over and done. It was 2 racers racing for the win. Billy tried to be a hero but came home a zero, it happens it is called racing. Leave it alone already!

Bull$hit, he was trying, he just happened to flip before he got to him.. Sorry, just my opinion. He was going to use him for the a backboard..
