And Biffle doesn't like that:

Quote:

Greg Biffle believes fellow Chase contender Jimmie Johnson got an unfair advantage by being able to participate in a Goodyear test last month at Dover, where he set pole position for Sunday's second race in the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series play-off. NASCAR's current testing policy does not allow teams to test at tracks included in the Sprint Cup calendar but Goodyear carries out a number of tests to finalise tyre selections for future events and a small group of drivers are selected to participate by the tyre firm.
On 4 August, five weeks away from the start of the Chase, two drivers represented each of the four manufacturers in a test at Dover, where Goodyear was hoping to rectify some wear issues it had during the autumn race at the same track.

I agree with Biffle.

I gather there's no live coverage this weekend for us Brits, which is a shame because I was hoping to catch one more race before uni

Crikey! Joey rolls a lot, but is OK.

MJ_N_09 · 27 Sep 2009, 18:59 (Ref:2549303)

Man, If I had actually gone to Dover, I would have crapped myself seeing that. Looked identical to this, but slower.

Surprise: Kyle p'd off again.

**gomick** · 27 Sep 2009, 22:18 (Ref:2549412)

Hendricks cars are the ones to be in.... Ambrose in P14 - thats pretty good...

Montoya into 3rd in the championship...surely it can't be his year...surely not...

He's really looking good. But he'll have to get past the HMS cars first which isn't going to be easy

Knowlesy · 27 Sep 2009, 23:28 (Ref:2549442)

Gonna be hard to beat the 48 and 5 sadly, but who knows. Good consistent results and a winning ticket at Talladega could be the thing.

Exciting times.

Going on Current form you would have to think that Talladega is the only race for the top 5 guys that they honestly have no idea where they/there car will be.

As the rest of tracks this year are either Mile or less than a mile tracks similar to what they have been racing.

Good to see another solid top 3 from JPM, really feeling like that first win can't be too far away surely.

Much as I'd love to see Montoya pull it off, I just can't see him beating the 48 when JJ's at the top of his game. I really hope the 48 and the 5 drop points soon, or I can see it being a two horse race from here in.
