Jeff Gordon Crash Turns Into A Massive Brawl [03:31]
With his No. 15 Toyota still smoking, Clint Bowyer sprinted from his car to the garage to confront Jeff Gordon, who dumped him with two laps remaining in Sunday's Advocare 500. Bowyer's team already was involved in a brawl before the driver attempted to run up into Gordon's No. 24 hauler, but was held back by NASCAR officials and other team members. The incident stemmed from contact between Bowyer and Gordon on Lap 305 when the No. 15 slid up into Gordon's No. 24 while both drivers were battling for fifth place. Gordon limped around the track for several laps before taking out Bowyer and collecting Joey Logano directly in front of Brad Keselowski, who took the points lead with his run at Phoenix International Raceway. "We got used up by Clint several times this year, and enough is enough," Gordon's crew chief Alan Gustafson said. "If you're going to mess with the bull, you're going to get the horns. "That's just ridiculous that a champion would act like that," Bowyer's team owner Michael Waltrip said. NASCAR red-flagged the event to clean up the track. After almost 15 minutes, the race resumed.
Wholelottashakin @ The Spa 8 17 12 [02:10]
Joel broke beautifully, had her in good position all the way around the track, made "the move" just right and I thought we had it. Low and behold the inside horse comes outside and kicks by at the last second. This race will do her good and get her ready for her next start. She is now back running and running well, so let's see if we can keep the momentum going! I saw the head on replay and it looked like she was very relaxed and doing everything right. This filly is very professional and will certainly get this condition and move up from here. Close but no cigar! That's OK, we've got a nice turf filly!

RTD 2nd in 9th @ The Spa 7 30 12 [01:47]
RTD ran like he was shot out of a cannon to hold on for 2nd in the 9th race today at The Spa! He broke sharp as he always does, took the overland route about 4 wide around the track and opened up a 3 length lead at the top of the stretch. Unfortunately the 6 horse - taking advantage of the front end speed (21,44,56) - closed to get the win.
