Anti-climatic finish coming up?

Don't think that was anti-climatic.

2h30 of race, we're done with a nice finish, nice start and a big flip. Now for the Nationwide.

So close to getting Biffle'd but McRenolyds was so lucky the 3rd placed car decided to help him instead of go for 2nd himself....

Though is it being too ungrateful in wishing they didn't wait until coming out of turn 4 of the last lap before going side by side?

I know it's a timing thing but it's annoying to see them troll around in one lane until the last corner of the last lap....

Almost wonder if Hackenbracht could've ducked under both of them there if he went low at the last minute... Oh well. "Ifs and buts"

I hate complaining, because the race was pretty decent compared to what we've seen this year, but I have the same burning feeling. Last lap passes are great, but how many times have we seen this kind of finish now? I really wish the leader had a chance, but now it's pretty much a guarantee that whoever is in 2nd place coming out of the last corner at Talladega will win it. Maybe if the leader were more brave with blocking them, they'd have a chance, but I'm sure they'd just get shoved around sideways if they tried anything.

Isn't really much the leader can do in that situation. Just ask Carl Edwards or Kyle Busch.

Well guys, I agree but I think ARCA Series, especially at Daytona and Talladega, were made to people just to have some experience at this kind of race tracks. Putting laps down, running a lot of time close togheter. Let the crazy and dangerous fast racing to the more safer cars, more well founded teams and more experienced drivers at NNS and NSCS.

I think he tried to, he just waited too late to do it and almost hooked Lofton in the process.

Just got finished watching the race. Not much action other than the big one and that massive flip. In fact, I was fast forwarding through all the single file racing when suddenly there's a car upside down and tumbling, shocked the hell out of me. Glad he was alright.

Really happy for McReynolds, especially after the way he lost it Daytona.
