I certainly hope that Logano isin't proud of these last two wins....punted Kenseth last week, and depending on camera angle, probably didn't win this week...that combined with constant rule changes by NASCAR...very irritating.

He was infront of all them before the cautions came out today, so your complaint is moot. And at Kansas they knew they were in position to make it harder for other teams to advance to the next round and he took advantage.

I would have to agree with tommy any racer would've done the same thing! It's just to bad they didn't get to finish that race Jr would've won for sure

He won this week fair and square, I blame NASCAR this week, Kyle Petty and the other announcers had never even heard of the new rule...last week he flat out punted Kenseth...by the time they get done with this chase system he won't even have anybody of his caliber to race against...and not every racer would have punted Kenseth, he punted him because he didn't want him in the chase...almost every driver on the track has had problems with Logano.

People have had problems with Logano because he was younger than them. Logano has been one of the fastest cars all year long.

Nascrap at its finest.  Harvick manipulates the finish but its ok!!!  I can see why I have only watched the Glen and Bristol before today....Be glad when Tony retires so I can quit watching this scripted garbage.

Nascar made sure that Biffle was not going to be in front for that restart, by delaying the clean up effort long enough that he had to pit

8 laps under caution. Stupid.  Absolutely no reason for it.  No reason for no red flag there.  But then again, needed to script it to try to get Jr the win.

I'd say it was fixed, EXCEPT...... If they're trying to get ratings, they would've waited til JR got the lead before they threw the yellow. No way would they rig it to eliminate their ONLY source of viewers. Glad I don't care enough to even have much of an opinion anymore. 15 years ago I would've lost sleep over the crap they are doing. Now, I don't even care enough to watch the highlights most weeks.

Beats any ball game, but the chase system really sucks. I find it hard to believe the manufacturers support a series with RWD cars that don't exist built on +45 year old chassis technology, covered with a template body governed by rigged chickenshait rules.

People have trouble with Logano because of the stuff he does, not because he's younger, lots of younger drivers out there...I agree that NASCAR has become a "Drama Queen" so to speak...my Mother who is 87, sat here and said what in the world are all the caution laps for?  They ALWAYS manipulate the end to have a caution, if no wrecks then they come up with imaginary debris on the track...

Tuned in the Xfinity race a couple of Saturdays ago and what do I hear?  An announcer with a British accent.  I thought I was watching a Grand Prix race.  Are they trying to get women to watch just to listen to this guy? I turned it back to football.  They are turning more and more people away, just look at the stands.

Surprised no one has mentioned anything about the "move" Harvick did..... I had respect for him and actually kinda liked him for his demeanor, but not after that BITC% move....

I'm on the fence about the Harvick deal, but it's just one more reason why the chase should be eliminated...I never liked it, and most fans don't...I believe NASCAR attempted to manipulate that race to get Dale Jr. a chance to get into the chase, which is why they had so many caution laps, that was to run Biffle out of fuel...I like Dale Jr., he's a good guy, but he means a lot of money to NASCAR, I am sure there are many fans that will not be going to the last races because he is out of the chase...I think that it's probably not over, Tuesday is penalty day at NASCAR....

 

I was disappointed in the guy with the British accent also, don't dislike Britains, but they belong in F1 or some place else.

When the "star" Dale Jr. was a lap down, and half way behind, out comes the yellow, he gets his lap back,  and the car that was in FRONT of him.  But he didn't start at the rear of the cars on the lead lap, he started 16th. Two laps later a yellow, now he is 5th.  Looks like Nastycar, is like professional wrestling.

Dale Jr. equals a LOT of money to NASCAR, I like him a lot, and he can't help what NASCAR does, but they were definitely trying to get him in a position to win.

He was penalized, but I don't believe he lost a lap.
