Lap 9 #103 moves down into #45; #103 served his penalty.

Lap 14 A check-up leads to a wreck. This is being considered a "racin' deal."

Lap 35 #003 blends on the back stretch after pitting but is not up to speed and gets clipped by another car, starting a wreck. #003 retired.

Lap 46 Another check-up causes an incident. I'm calling this one a "racin' deal" as well. #7 is for failing to slow for a wreck and getting into other cars. He served his penalty.

Lap 59 #28 makes a move to block the outside lane and then moves back down to block the inside lane. This causes check-ups in both lanes resulting in a wreck. #28 is charged for the incident. He did not serve the penalty and is docked 1 lap in the final standings.

Lap 65 #712 gets into the back of #6. There was no time for #712 to do a drive-through so he is scored EOLL.

Lap 66 #17 gets into the back of #18 and causes him to wreck coming to the checkers. #17 is scored EOLL.


The finishing order has been updated. The way I did it was score people as they got through the initial wreck OR got up to speed after being in the wreck. #43 was spun AFTER getting through the wreck, so he is not penalized positions.

Lap 3 #712 loses control of his car and gets spun; #712 served his penalty.

Lap 17 This is being marked as a "racin' deal" due to an accordion effect.

Lap 23 #08 pushes up into #17. #08 did not serve his penalty and is docked 1 lap.

Lap 62 #90 blows a motor; no incident charged.

Lap 16 #24 blows a motor; no penalty served.

Lap 39 #28 gets into #18 while entering the pits. We are calling this a "racin' deal" as #28 had cars on both sides of him, plus #18 had to slow more than usual for more 3-wide pitting directly in front of him. #28 came in to the pits completely under control, so no incident is charged.

Lap 60 #880 blows a motor; no penalty served.

Lap 66 #17 and #10 make contact and cause a wreck. After a long review, we called this on #17 as he continued to move up the track while #10 maintained a straight line. #17 is scored EOLL.

Lap 19 #29 gets into #7 during green flag pit stops; #29 retired.

Lap 41 While 4-wide at the exit of turn 2, #6 and #28 make contact which results in a wreck. While they were already 4-wide, there was enough room to avoid a wreck. #6 was slowing moving up the track while #28 was slowly moving down a bit (and also had room to his outside). We are calling this incident on both #6 and #28. #6 served his penalty but #28 did not and is docked 1 lap in the final standings.

Lap 42 #8 gets into #28 under the caution; #8 retired.

Lap 46 #127 has a computer issue which causes a wreck; #127 retired.

Lap 56 A check-up causes an accordion effect and then a wreck. This is being called a "racin' deal"; no incidents charged.

Lap 2 A check-up causes an accordion effect and then a wreck. This is being called a "racin' deal." Race was restarted.

Lap 4 #60 gets into #45. There was a check-up but appeared there was enough time to try to avoid contact. #60 served his penalty.

Lap 35 #880 gets into the back of #29 in the tri-oval during a check-up. #29 is knocked off the track, down to the inside wall but manages to save his car. He re-enters the track in turn 1 but collides with #96. It is the duty of all drivers to re-enter the racing surface safely, so #29 is charged with the incident. He retired.

Lap 51 #712 pushes #880 into the back of #08 who was not directly in line with the draft of cars. This caused #08 to get bumper-hooked. Incident charged to #712. He did not serve his penalty and is docked 1 lap in the final standings.

Lap 65 #71 gives a bad bump to #4 entering turn 3 which causes the field to fan out. #880 gets into #90 as cars ahead are avoiding slower cars from the initial bad bump draft. We are calling this a "racin' deal" as #71's bad bump did not cause the wreck. The wreck was a result of 4-wide and cars at different speeds. Each driver made a legitimate effort to slow and/or avoid contact.

Lap 9 #14 bumps #17 into a car that isn't squared up so #17 gets bumper-hooked. Incident on #14 who retired.

Lap 25 #90 gets into the back of #7; #90 served his penalty.

Lap 47 There were 2 separate incidents on pit road but both are being called "racin' deals". The first incident had cars entering the pits spread out 3-wide. If there was room to the right, the cars need to move over, but there was not room for #127 to move right. Because of this, it's being called a "racin' deal".

Lap 63 #088 bumper-hooks himself off the car ahead; #088 served his penalty.

Lap 4 after a long conversation, this was called a "racin' deal" as #143 clipped the apron trying to avoid a tight 4-wide situation. The 4-wide was started due to a near wreck near the front of the field.

Lap 45 #43 gets into #90 coming in for green flag pit stops. #43 served his penalty. Shortly after that, #28 gets into #77 on pit road during a 3-wide situation. These instances have always been called "racin' deals" and we are calling this one a "racin' deal" as well, but moving forward, we are going to be putting more scrutiny on pit road accidents instead of simply dismissing them as non-incidents. This isn't a threat or admonishment, but we feel it's only fair to judge each wreck in the same manner, regardless of where or when it occurs.

Lap 12 #26 gets into #08; #26 served.

Lap 22 #28 gets into #6; the yellow didn't come out, so the penalty is a drive-thru. #28 did not serve and is docked 1 lap.

Lap 42 #712 blown motor; no incident charged.

Lap 54 A check-up causes an accordion effect. We are calling this a "racin' deal".

Lap 58 A bit of a slow restart at the front causes an accordion effect and eventual wreck near the back of the field. I can't point to any individual who did anything wrong so this is also being called a "racin' deal". But we NEED to be patient on starts and restarts. Do not go until the car ahead of you goes.

Lap 65 #2 enters turn one on the low side but never gets his car down to the low lane and makes contact with #088, causing a wreck. #2 is scored EOLL.


DNQ's: #24, #4, #71
1-and-parks: none
Penalties/Warnings:
- #2 is charged with excessive blocking and lane crowding. The combination of both is considered Careless driving. Per the rules, this is a 1 lap penalty.
- #25 is charged with lane crowding. Per the rules, the first offense is a warning.

Lap 3 #088's warp causes a wreck; the race was restarted.

Lap 19 #45 gets into #99 while coming to pit road; #45 served his drive-thru penalty.

Lap 33 #088 and #143 make contact in turn 3. #088 had moved down the track with warp issues and #143 moves down and clips #088 in the low lane. I'm calling this a "racin' deal" as #143 was under the dashed line but had traffic to his outside. #088 was in the low lane at the time of contact so I can't fault him either.

Lap 46 #17 moves from the middle to low lane exiting turn 4, but #45 is there and they make contact, starting an incident; #17 served his penalty.

Lap 59 #60 bumper-hooks #880 exiting turn 4; #60 served his penalty.

Lap 63 #880 gets into the back of #143; I am calling this a "racin' deal" as the check-up was 5mph.

Lap 16 There was a check-up which resulted in a wreck. I'm calling this a "racin' deal" because the check-up was over 10mph.

Lap 22 This was another big check-up going into turn 3. This is also being calleda "racin' deal" because of the speed decrease.

Lap 45 #17 blown motor; no incident charged.

Lap 61 #7 squeezes between 2 cars and then clips #6; #7 charged with the incident and served his penalty.

Lap 66 #10 slides up into #39 which causes an incident; #10 is scored EOLL.

Lap 66 #127 gives a bad bump to #80 entering the tri-oval which causes a wreck; #127 is scored EOLL.
