shocked.gif Busch silences the Toyota critics with dominating win. Only two Toyota's in the top ten at ORP. But it was never even close, Kyle Busch jumped the start of the race, some how with out getting a penalty. The pole winner can elect to start either on the inside or outside of the front row and Colin Braun took the outside, when the green flag flew Busch crossed the line first, which should have been a stop & go penalty.

Top Ten Finishers
1. Kyle Busch - Toyota / 2. Colin Braun - Ford / 3. Mike Bliss - Chevrolet / 4. Scott Wimmer - Chevrolet / 5. Josh Wise - Dodge / 6. Cale Gale - Chevrolet / 7. Landon Cassill - Chevrolet / 8. Joey Logano - Toyota / 9. David Ragan - Ford / 10. Steve Wallace - Chevrolet

As far as the jump at the start, if the officials let it slide, nothing anyone can do. Chances are Busch would have still won the race, given his dominance of the series as of late.

Rest assured, if Toyotas continue to win, NASCAR will knee-jerk another sanction against those teams, instead of letting R&D on the part of the other teams bring them up to par with what is obviously the dominant Toyotas.

If the Toyota engines meet current specs and pass inspections, it is ridiculous to force them to scrub horsepower off so the American-made teams can catch up.

Yes the big 3 need to find out what they are doing different. Its a sad day when a new manufacture comes in and tears everyone up like this.

The new Toyota engines are technology from the year 2006, the engine the American cars run is technology from the 50s. The new RO7 Chevy engine is the closest thing to the Toyota, but nascar hasn't allowed the nationwide series to run the engine combo yet. Guess we are lucky to be still this close.
