None of us like seeing disastrous things take place, and we're lucky we didn't witness the biggest disaster since Le Mans '55

Makes sense on the back stretch where it is wide and no spectators.

Do not make sense on the final lap in the trioval.

Would this be considered an official SG announcement?

Because I would vouch for that.

I think they can keep it and tweak the way it's enforced a little, but from the poll options given, definitely needs to go. I understand the reason behind the rule but it's caused way more problems and frustration that it's prevented.

I'd say the only place they need to get rid of it is the tri-oval. Can't see the problem with enforcing it on the back straight for the reasons cheeveer gave, and obviously they can't go below it on the turns without tearing up the car. We saw today what can happen when they enforce it on the tri-oval though.

Needs to go, without question.

What happened today may only be an extreme consequence of the rule, but crashing due to the rule will happen again and could have similar results. At the very least, it's going to piss a lot of people off if a last-lap crash is almost guaraneed.

They should keep it close to the enter of turn 1 and 3, but remove it in turn 5 and in the middle of the backstretch

I still can't believe what happened in that crash. It's like something you'd see in NR2003. You see it in the game and you don't think it could actually happen.

Another thing, and I hope you guys will understand where I'm coming from with this...I think the drivers need to take a step back and be a little more careful. It's not just the yellow line blocking shit, its bump drafting, too.

Again, I don't know if this has really sunk in with all of you yet, but we came incredibly close to witnessing tragedy.

With the final lap in sight, they need to let them go. Keselowski did what he had to do to get a win.

This. The air he got, I never thought that could possibly happen.

This is exactly what I've known the yellow line would eventually cause. The yellow line rule is more dangerous than just letting people use common sense.

Last lap should be anything goes as long as you don't wreck the guy to pass him.

My first reaction was "this is really, really scary". I didn't grasp the epicness until a few minutes after. Now again I think it's scary, I hope this doesn't evolve into a tragedy.

NASCAR should definitely make changes to the rule - They're probably too adamant to abolish it completely, but the trioval should be fair game, especially considering it's easy for a car to get airborne there. Otherwise, they should make the catchfences higher if they can.

I just hope they don't do something trememndously reactionary that will totally kill the racing that slows the cars way down or whatever.

I think in some ways the yellow line rule has caused more problems than it attempted to solve, as today has indicated.

Still, my question is, what is keeping this from happening again? The problem had to do partly with blocking. If we let drivers go below the yellow line, fine; what about blocking? Wouldn't we just be giving them more room to block?

Certainly, I would like to see the yellow line rule go away, but I'm not sure that was the only thing behind this crash.

they should have area that starts at the exits of turn four and two and ends about 100 feet before the turns 1 and 3 and let them pass below the Yellow line there and there only.

Well I realise parts of the car still went through but it would seem to me that the safety fencing did exactly what is was supposed to do, maybe make the grill finer or something like that but that car never got in the crowd.

You can only make it so small before it starts to really obstruct the view.

But yeah, it's amazing what the fence can actually stop when it has to stop something...

Outside of shrinking the plates or removing the yellow line rule, I don't know what they can do.

One thing I think went wrong today was the drivers trying to prove a point to NASCAR that when it comes down to the end, they wont go below the yellow line no matter what. I'm not trying to single out B-kez because he did what he needed to do to win but I think he knew he was going to have to wreck Edwards if he wanted to hold his spot and he did it anyways.
