Scott Speed takes out rival

[oddlycalm]

Saw the highlight reel on Speed Report. :laugh: Speed is incapable of backing down even when a championship is on the line. After Ricky Stenhouse chrome horns him a couple times and spins Speed out he comes back around and takes direct aim at Stenhouse taking himself and Stenhouse out of the championship and handing it to Algaier.

Speed should have an very eventful career if he doesn't change. :D

Well, I figure that Speed already has a NASCAR seat next year and doesn't need the title. Just showing that he ain't taking spit from a buttpipe driver.

I guess Speed felt his car was terminal and he decided that if he wasn't going to finish, well, neither was Stenhouse:eek:

He should have let Steenhouse go after the first bump. When you have a 90 point lead, all you need to do is keep him in sight and cruise to a top 15 finish. Why risk being taken out? He should have backed off, and let him go. Aparently his spotter and Stenhouse's spotter had an agreement that Steenhouse would pass on the outside, but that didn't happen. Speed should have out smarted Steenhouse and just basically move over. You know Steenhouse would have benifited from Speed having a DNF more then just gaining 1 or 2 spots. But taking him out was a nice move. If he ruined Speed's chances why should Steenhouse get the title?

But stuff like that should make him a fan favorite alla Kyle Bush and Carl Edwards. :laugh:

Providing that Dinger has a job next year it should make for some good entertainment watching Speed and A.J knock the hell out of each other week in and week out.
