Montreal Busch Race

Wow, did a lot of things go down here today!!

Kevin Harvick won the race after starting in the back of the line on a street road course.
Harvick was followed by Patrick Carpentier, Max Papis, Ron Fellows & Stephen Leicht.
(See foxsports for the finishing line up.)

If you didn't watch the race, the last few laps (That took hours it feels) were pretty dang interesting because while Kevin Harvick was treating Montreal fans to a victory burnout, Robby Gordon was also celebrating with a victory burnout. (Gee, we must look really bright the Canadians right about now!!)

Wha? 2 victory burnouts? Yep. 2.

There was an altercation on a restart when Harvick tapped out Scott Pruett, and that caused a fairly good sized wrecking yard. But while that was happening, Robby Gordon was passing Marcos Ambrose for the lead, then Ambrose took the lead back, resulting in Gordon getting spun. (Remember, this was all happening as the yellow flag came out for the other wreck.)

Once Robby Gordon got his car turned around, NASCAR deemed him to be in 13th, but Gordon disagreed, and pulled back up to the front, in the 2nd place.

NASCAR ordered him to 13th, but he refused, and on the restart, spun Ambrose, (The car to beat by the way), and charged on to "lead" the race, despite being black flagged repeatedly and ignoring orders to park it.

NASCAR met with Gordon, then he left the meeting with a copy of the rule book, but he was still seething. (When you leave the principals office with a rule book in your hand, it can't be a good thing, huh?)

Then Gordon went on to dig his own trouble deeper: “You always go back to your position if you get spun out, and (Ambrose) spun me under the caution,”

"They told me originally to go back to second place, and I went back to second place. Then halfway around the last (caution) lap, they said to go back to 13th place or 14th place, something like that.

Dude, not your best move!
