Tempers Flare at Richmond. Ryan collects first career win!

Well going into this weeks race, I knew it was going to be a wreck fest but nothing like this. Penalties were handed out tonight to a certain driver, drivers argued throughout the race, and a whole lot of bumping went on. Cautions lagged up the first race so they restarted at lap 40.  Ryan had a great car tonight as he raced towards the front of the pack most of the race. JWBAccess had a tough race as he kept getting into other drivers starting with pvt2 then going to Lurt and Ryan. Ryan battled Smash going into the final lap. Some pressure was applied to Smash as HalfPrice looked to take second place. The two spun while crossing the finish line. Ryan went on to earn the victory in the Toyota Owners 80 at Richmond.

Will tempers flare at Richmond

Will it be a wreck fest? Or will we have long green flag runs. It can be unpredictable at times. Bristol was a wreck fest then we take it to an even tighter track like Martinsville and only have 6 cautions.  It is hard to tell going into Richmond but I know tempers will flare and rivalries will begin. With just a few points separating first and second place, the leaders will be battling with everything they got. As much as SICK and Lurt battled at Texas and Kansas, i'm sure they will take it to the 3/4 mile track Richmond. Looking at the wildcard spot, Ryan is beating Rich by a few points but Rich has that one win to give him the wildcard spot. Ryan needs to win a race or gain those five points to catch up with JWB in 5th place. Things up front are close though as just 39 points separate 1st from 5th place. It is still anyone's championship as we go into week 9 of this long 36 week season.
