If you just won the biggest race in your career, I see nothing wrong in showing real emotions.

its all good, I'm a jr fan and would of loved to seen him win but it was a great ending and was happy jamie pulled off a chevy daytona win. I thought it was kinda funny watching him break down, tears of joy no doubt!!

Wow not the crashfest I thought judging by practice and the duals.....do I get a prize for hanging in there and watching the whole thing?.....JJ didnt do to well either, I can really call 'em....Good for Jamie and Jr.
Good to see "Lets try and fix something that isnt broke" Brian France (not my fav!) putting the races back into the hands of the drivers ......maybe while hes at it he stop fining people if theres a bit of a scrap or some swearing in the pits after an incident on the track......I mean tv has shown the Cale/ Donnie fight over and over and over yet your not allowed to actually do anything like that today.....you want to bring the fans back????.....let the boys be boys......
you might lose a sponsor or two but if the fans and the tv ratings are there, there will be plenty to take their place

Was thinking the same thing. Especially since it isn't one of the main teams. I have never seen so many drivers give another drive congrats. That tells you what a good dude he is.

The McMurray's are real nice genuine people. Enjoyed racing against them back in my karting days.

While I totally agree with this sentiment and its something that I'd like to see it runs counter to the current way that Nascar and the tracks promote the Nationwide races. The Series would quickly die if you didn't have some Cup drivers running in the races...
I doubt that they would get the TV coverage that they get now and would probably resemble coverage something like an ARCA race (without the Danica hype)... Not saying this would happen overnight but once it was clear that Cup regulars weren't allowed to race in the series the sponsorship and TV deals would go away...
It's not a new phenomenon that Cup drivers are running these races they always have through the years, what's different is the level of their involvement which is light years from what was done in the past...

unfortunatly nascar is more worried about ticket sales than upcoming racers. attendence for the nationwide series would drop big time if they cut out the cup guys. I would like to see a limit on how many nationwide races a regular cup guy can enter per year, maybe like 10 or so.

Or limit participation based on where a driver finished in the points in the previous years Cup season. Say anyone out of the chase would be eligible or limit it to drivers who are not in the top 35. After all these are the drivers who could use some additional seat time...
