Biggest choke in NASCAR ever?

No not even close.

See Jeff Gordon in the All-Star race where Ray didn't put enough fuel in his car to go the distance in the last segment.

Also see Mark Martin in the Busch race coming to pit road (while leading) a lap early because he thought the race was over.

Jeff Gordon's flop wasn't a points race.

Mark Martin's flop, though stupid, was a Busch race.

Ambrose was turning his car off when he had more than enough fuel to make it (plus some green-white checkers) to the end while heading uphill. And it cost his very first victory in Cup.

Marcos didn't do anything "wrong" and he still managed a good finish. He cut off his car, like I am sure other drivers were doing, and then his car wouldn't fire back up.

It was a strange mechanical failure.

Also, for what it is worth, I hear JJ has choked on JG quite a bit. Does that count for choking in NA$CAR?

If im not mistaken last year on the last turn of the final lap he jumped the curb and got loose and got passed and got 2nd. May not have been at the same track. I can't remember.

That was at Montreal in the Nationwide series I believe.

      Unfortunately business is business especially when there are large sums of money on the table. Goes the same for player and ownership. Does not make it right either way.  Why would he not want to play for the niners? Closer to home with a team that has a chance of delivering a SB trophy.

      Orlov Complaining About Time W/Hurricanes

      I don’t know if it’s him bad mouthing his former situation in public or my pettiness but either way I’m not a fan. Dude was on playoff teams getting paid millions to entertain. I’m not better that because and I am better than that. You don’t bad mouth your former employer in public. Esp after getting over paid and two, poor little Russian baby didn’t get the playing spot he wanted. Rod had him exactly where is was supposed to be.  He had a mean lip check and did defend our players. Specifically the devils game around Christmas where is our Haula on his ass. Cool. Thank you. But don’t talk poo about us. Because it make you look like Haula.    “need to get as far away as possible”. fug off. Didn’t see Burnsy bad mouthing and his play dropped off too.    sorry, but Orlov doesn’t get a pass from me. See you twice a year…

      I don't really care about your post at all. I just saw the direction of the discussion and this snippet from an article I read earlier in the day was a good spot to put non-Panthers info. I mostly don't care about the players personal lives. That's off the field/personal poo. Not really any of my business.  I also don't know him personally so what would be the point of congratulating him outside basically attempting to draw attention to myself like so many in the social media/internet realm.
