Austin Dillon is 'Chicken Shit' but NASCAR Laid the Egg

As the NASCAR Cup Series race at Richmond ends there is only one thing that comes to mind as Joey Logano put it:

Chicken shit.

Chicken shit by Austin Dillon but more importantly Chicken Shit by NASCAR.

Every NASCAR driver and fan should look at the end of that race with disgust. Coming from 2 car lengths back to wreck a guy in the last turn and then wrecking another guy because you drove into the corner so hard you were going to get passed, is not the NASCAR I want to see. But at the end of the day it is the racing NASCAR has created.

Joey Logano can call Austin Dillon chicken shit all he wants but NASCAR has created this racing by implementing a playoff system that is focused on something that should have nothing to do with winning a championship. Winning a single race should not qualify you for having a chance to be a champion. You literally force these drivers to do everything they can to get a single win to make the playoffs and this is the result you get. You get manufactured finishes and ridiculous results. There is no other way to describe wrecking two drivers on purpose in the last 200 yards of a race to the finish as anything other than ridiculous.

Not to mention the fact that NASCAR has penalized and suspended drivers for right hooking another car in recent years and yet they just let this be a non issue as if that is ok in this sport. I think all drivers in the field should not be ok with what Austin Dillon did tonight, however can you really blame him? Drivers jobs, sponsors, careers, and more are now reliant on making this arbitrary playoffs that NASCAR has created. Sure if he had any morals as a race car driver he probably wouldn't have done that. But we are talking about an inferior driver burning grampa's money through the combustion chamber so we can't really expect moral from him I guess.

NASCAR can't seem to get out of their own way. They had a "playoff" system that had two drivers tie at the end of it, but i guess that just wasn't close or good enough for NASCAR.

We can hate on Austin Dillon all we want, but he wouldn't have made that move if NASCAR didn't force his hand. He was 32nd in points before tonight. Should a driver who is 32nd in points really have a chance at the playoffs? Of course not. The playoff format needs fixed or we will get more dumb finishes and see NASCAR become the WWE of auto racing.

Also I'm pissed that finish cost me my Joey Logano over Ryan Blaney -132 that I posted earlier in the week. That bet was winning for 399.75/400 laps until that last corner.
