Come on Joe
There are a couple of drivers on pit road who are known for driving like bone heads into the pits. Joe Nemechek is not one of them, except for Sunday. He got three penalties for being over the pit box line and he hit the back of our car on another. I can understand one time over shooting your pit or maybe sliding alittle bit past your mark, but hitting the car in front of you while in the middle of a pit stop, now that's bad. It was our 4th stop of the day and we had just got to the right side of the car. The jack was up and the changers had just got the tires out. I was just about to hang my tire when all the sudden the car moved forward about 16 inches. I said to my self, "What the #@!%". I turned around and there was Joe, nose deep into the back of our #12 Alltel Dodge. Luckily it didn't knock the car off the jack or it could have been a lot worse. The team kept digging and finished up with a mid 15 second stop. Thank god Ryan keeps his foot on the brake, if not we might have been shot into the pit in front of us. Dammit Joe, your better than that. No hard feelings here, its just part of the deal. Maybe this week in California will have better luck.

I didn't even know about that one. The one that bothered me was when Ryan got blocked in by the spun car (#11 I think), which put him further back in the pack, then that mucked up restart. He could have had a much better finish if it wasn't for that.

seems that old joe should watch what he says.
he complained about harvick days earlier.
harvick was doing about 195 in a turn when he made his error in judgement but old joe was doing about 35.
time for the old man to go fishing and retire.

I think pit stops really messed Ryan up Sunday, especially the incident between Leffler and Kahne that blocked him in for a few seconds. He got back in the back with all that crazy driving and ended up 20th. But, he'll get em next time!
