ESPN analyst Ray Evernham, who won three championships as Gordon's crew chief, echoed Geisler's call for improved barriers at Watkins Glen. "Is there a better way of building a soft wall or something to absorb the impact other than the tires. " Evernham asked during a teleconference. "The tires seem to take that energy...

Biffle ran out of gas while leading with 54 laps to go, but cycled back into the lead after every other driver who took a turn leading ran into their own problems. Denny Hamlin's flat tire sent him hard into the wall three laps from the finish, setting up a long caution period and a two-lap overtime sprint to the finish. Jason Leffler, who was in second, ran...

Earnhardt, Vickers help send Kenseth to victory Feb 16, 2009
"For his part, Vickers admitted blocking Earnhardt, saying they were racing for "lucky dog," the stupid NASCAR rule that rewards the first car a lap down with a position on the lead lap should a caution fall."He just hooked me in the left rear and typically NASCAR penalizes," he said.
