Frame by Frame NASCAR Loudon Race

I know it's been a while for me to post one but the past races nothing big was debated after the race like this past week has. No passing to the right at all on every restart and even Jimmie Johnson was warned of this in the first race we had double file and he was only out of line at the time.

Now on to the big one and some say Kyle Busch is at fault cause he hit Truex Jr sending him into a spin and some say it's Truex Jr fault for getting into the back of Dale making him spin his tires and this made Truex check up etc etc.

Now my take is on this is Kurt Busch and Jeff Gordon have been playing with each other on restarts and Jeff getting the better of Kurt each time. It happen again and Jeff took off and Kurt didn't. Dale Jr had to back off at one point just before they started and Truex got in the back of him making Dale Jr spin his tires. Kyle Busch did get into the back of Truex as well to give him the push.

Kyle and Truex both back off and then got going. Dale Jr looks like he knew he was about to get run over and better head to the inside and get out of the way. Truex started as well but not as much as Dale did. Kyle trys to squeeze by Truex when there was no room to even try it cause the out side lane was moving faster. Kyle made contact with another car before Truex Jr and no one has said a thing. I will give you a hint they both got in to it last year at the same race?

Rubbing up againts Montoya pushes Kyle's car tords Truex's right rear side bumper making him spin out. Truex's car is going straight not tords the inside wall like Kyle Petty and Wally Dallenback stated. During this frame by frame is when Wally say's Kyle thinks he has room to pass as if it is ok to try it and not his fault. If you think so then you are a Kyle Busch hater cause Kyle Petty said so. LMAO

I have stated before that Kyle Busch is one of the best at driving the COT with out taking all the risk of passing like he has before. This is not the first time he has knock someone off up front and when the pay back comes it just might be during the chase when Kyle can't afford to have it happen.

Now from the front camera frames.

No passing to the right before the start / finish line.

Lets get a little closer shall we.

Now did Kyle spin Turex Jr? The frames don't lie. Yes. Now was Kyle the cause of the big one? I will let you think about that,.. It's too late time is up and it's no he did not cause the big one. Who had the sponsor of the race on his hood is the one.

My take is Truex Jr would have spun tords the inside wall and where he would have hit it with out any help from another car we don't know how much he would have bounce back from hitting it but the car might not have bounce far enought back to hit anyone.

I put the blame on Jeff Burton for the big one cause he try's to dart down at full speed and ends up crashing & pushing Truex farther down the wall. Jeff was behind Carl Edwards with David Reutimann in front of Carl and David slowed up and missed hitting Truex and Carl got lucky and drove threw it. I did a red line on frames 3 and 6 where I think he would have hit give a few inches here and there.lol

In the end the push from Jeff keeps Truex Jr heading tords the turn and back up in to the others.

Thats how I see it and many will disagree and thats ok by me.

NASCAR, Atlanta -Frame by Frame 2009

We had a few cars show the could lead for a while but Kurt Busch showed his car could lead the most and hold off Brian Vickers. We had a few spins and the big deal with a tire getting away from Marcos Ambrose pit box and rolling half way tords the flag stand with out the yellow being brought out. Infact the crew member was on his way back when they brought out the yellow.

So I will strat with that. On the frames we will have to use Brian Vickers as a time frame for this and use Jeff Burton & Montoya's pit stop to see how long this tire rolled. What I found was during Brian Vickers Pit stop is when the tire got loose & his crew got him out and on his way. He had one of the first pit stalls. In the frame of Brians pit stop you see Jeff Burton pass and Montoya follows behind Jeff Burton. Vickers pulls out of pit stall and gets in line behind Montoya.

.

Now what was the flag man waiting for when the tire is half way and rolling tords cars racing under green. The grass is out of bounds for crew so was the tire going to just stick it in reverse and roll back up to the pit stall? The next frame set is when the crew member starts to go after the tire and you will see Jeff and Montoya hit their pit boxs.

You tell me NASCAR was going to let the tire stay if it happen to stop rolling and fall over? He is off to the races to rescue that tire from being scared and all alone. Jeff Burton and Montoya hit their pit boxes. Plus why in Sam Hill is there not a catch wall to stop a tire from rolling into a no go zone in the first place. Plus it will keep pit crews safer from a car lossing control in the grass heading tords them. They are just as much at risk if not more while doing a pit stop with the cars going by them with in inches. The guys in the booth getting so excited saying he was 50 feet away from the racing surface. Try inches while in the pits.

It must be around 10 second or so for the time it took him to go out and get the tire plus the hole time it was rolling from Brian Vickers stop as well. The next set is them showing the yellow flag at the stands and the frames are as they come on TV as well. The first one you see how far he has gotten back to pit lane with the tire. The other was me having fun drawing the line of how far he had gone and was on his way back when the yellow came out.lol

Now all NASCAR teams payattention! Now I have come up with a new way for Dale Jr's tire changers to tell if they got all the lugs tight is have the new longer studs color coeded and then they can tell at a very quick once over. The way they are now with all black stud is hard to tell.

Next up is and I was waiting for when Office depot was going to come across the Home deput and we got to see it and the frames are as it happen. I think Joey did a great job not to reck worse after getting pushed. I didn't get to hear any post race interviews if anything was said. If so let me know what was said. Thanks.

Now Tony had a run and had to let up.

Now the bump and no run till he hits the wall for a second time later in the turn ahead.

Well thats it for this weeks frame by frame and what I wanted to show but if you wanted to see something else has well or check something for you about the race then just, Ask_Forensic2 and I will look over the video and try to help out in showing something for you.

Thanks.
