Ok, Newman is a hard charger and we all know that. Time for the drivers themselves to fix him and the couple of others that do this crap. I only heard what happened on the radio at Michigan today, but it sounded like Newman was up to his same BS. On the restart after the lap 53 debris caution, he ran the crap out of Truex Jr, the leader at the time, even though he was 3 laps down. Laps later, while still 3 laps down, goes off on a restart and makes it 3 wide with the leader Jeff Gordon and 1 lap down Jeff Green and causes a major fracas.

I so wish NASCAR could park a driver for it but it will never happen, the drivers have to deal with it themselves. No need for Newman to be 3 laps down and racing the leaders and cars 1 lap down.

I've gotta watch it again before I say something-Normally he's a pretty clean racer

Yeah I like Newman. But he can be stubborn. He never gave Rusty an inch of room. These guys are all type A personalities, thats what makes them tick. He's been running well and I'm sure he was frustrated losing that tire so early on.

yeah-that early tire killed any chance he had of winning.
Roush won like I figured-Just the wrong driver :P
I like Cousin Carl though and now his crewman can finally shave :P

Watching the replays, looked like Green lost the front end of his car, either had a tire go down or Newman was close enough to take the air off his front end. Newman had no business being in that position, no way do you make up 3 laps at Michigan, not when 20 cars are 1 lap down. Newman has done this stuff a bunch over his career and continues to get away with it. Need Tony Stewart to slam him into the wall.

Snowman's right on, he is stubborn and is why Rusty decided to hang it up sooner than later. He got tired of trying to help him only to for Newman not to return any favors.
