'HAVE AT IT, BOYS' PUT TO THE TEST

At best, Carl's a punk. He robbed the entire 12 team of a well-earned top-10. At least when Denny spun Brad last year at Homestead he did it early in the race and did it in a way that allowed Brad to save his car without wrecking. Point made, both drivers moved on.
The truth is, if Logano wasn't there when Carl lost it, then he probably would have saved his car. It's a textbook 'one of them racin' deals.' It's not like Carl doesn't have a history of being an aggressive driver himself. Remember how he justified bumping Kyle at Bristol saying that he thought Kyle would have done the same thing? He only got away with it because no one likes Kyle.
But more than that, as someone else pointed out, Carl has a history of using his car as a weapon and being unreasonably upset when he feels he was done wrong. He obviously can't be trusted to keep the safety of his fellow drivers and the fans in mind. That's why he needs to be suspended.
Bottom line - BOTTOM LINE - is NASCAR told them to take care of this kind of stuff on their own, this is what happened, and we have to live with it. Once the spoiler comes back, I think things like this will all work out alright. I hope that NASCAR doesn't jump to conclusions by either parking Edwards or rescinding their request for the drivers to sort things out themselves.
Okay, so you guys are just now realizing Carl Edwards is a punkassbitch? I've been saying that for years... He's a big media kiss ass and an idiot. His teammates don't even like him... I may have gained respect for him for paying back K-ski though. He too is a punkassbitch. And NASCAR you better not park the 99 for a week.
I also lost alot of respect for Carl, he has a history of using a 3,200lb stock car to settle thing's, he nearly took Dale Jr's hand off at a Nationwide post race cool down lap. Glad he drives for an Insurance company, he may need them someday.
There is a difference between "payback" and what Carl did, especially since he had nothing to pay Brad back for. Carl was at fault early on in the race, and at Talladega.
What Edwards did was extremely dangerous, he knew EXACTLY what would happen to Keselowski if he turned him there. He's very lucky Brad was able to walk away. Nascar officials need to hand down a harsh punishment.
While I don't condone Carl's actions, his intentions were the same as Denny Hamlin's when he spun Keselowski at Homestead last fall. I don't fault what he did, but he chose the wrong time to do it. There is no excuse for a driver who is 150+ laps down to blatantly wreck a car going for a top-5 finish. If Edwards were still on the lead lap and they were racing for position, I think there would have been less of a backlash to the incident. But there's no excuse for a guy running that far back to take a top-running driver out of the race. Carl should have waited a few weeks to get his revenge, because there is no way anyone can get behind Carl for what he did yesterday. And this is coming from a long time Ford fan.
I was under the understanding that we were not going to collectively freak out if something bad happened as a result of the "have at it boys".
I have heard of people calling for Carl's head. Yeah cause Brad Kausealotofwreckski's completely innocent. Brad did the same thing earlier in the race to Carl. He just didn't flip.
The wing is at fault for the flip. I think we have all figured that out at this point. Its gone in a couple weeks.
Don't penalize either of them. Self-policing garage remember. Carl going the wrong way on pit road was uncool.
If someone would just punch Brad in the face he will calm down.

I really really like Nascar and I enjoy watching them bump each other for fun etc. but to take out aggression on the track as far as Im concerned is unexceptable. If one of the drivers has a problem with another driver then he should man or woman up and take it to the grass and not the pavement. Its a coward that takes a 3500 lb peice of equipmt and try to cause damage with it. Use your fists if you cant take the heat!
