Ugly finish raises safety questions after Kansas City race
The Kansas City race ended in a dramatic 257 laps with a red flag and a chaotic scene as Dale Jarrett was briefly unconscious from a turn one wall collision. Earnhardt Jr. left the garage area for Mooresville as the field prepared for a finish that many readers found ugly and troubling given tire concerns raised by drivers all weekend and the prospect of similar conditions at New Hampshire. Monte Dutton notes the Goodyear tire plan remains unchanged for the next race.
