Matt Kenseth still not happy with Gordon

[TeamBlueOval]

Kenseth talks about Martinsville contact with Gordon: Is Matt Kenseth still upset with Jeff Gordon over getting bumped out of the way during the green-white-checkered flag finish at Martinsville? During an interview in Arlington, Texas on Wednesday, Performance Racing Network and Texas Motor Speedway announcer Brad Gillie asked Kenseth about the incident. Kenseth chuckled and said "He never likes the way I race him so&I don't know&he's honestly taken me out of three top-three finishes now and he still went on to finish third. I barely bumped into him at Martinsville and got under him and tried to go for a win and I thought we were gonna race side-by-side for the win on the last lap and instead he decided to wreck me and deliberately try to ruin my day. So, it's in the past and I'm just gonna move on and just start over the next week. He's gonna have to race how he wants to race and he's gonna have his opinions and I'm gonna have my opinions on things and we'll just go on from there." Kenseth took part in NASCAR's winners circle program at the International Bowling Hall of Fame and museum Wednesday to help promote the upcoming races at Texas Motor Speedway.(PRN Garage Pass)(4-8-2010)

drivers don't forget. ;) I don't think we've see the last of this yet. Hey, the worst that can happen is he'll get probation for 3 weeks. I don't see Matt letting Gordo have the last word.

Amazing how Matt can "bump" someone,and IT isn't "noticed"...yet when Carl does,everyone notices~I for ONE am glad Gordon did that to Matt...sorry,NOT a Kenseth fan,and what comes around goes around Matt...

I'm not the biggest Matt fan either, but what he did at Martinsville was RACING. It was a GWC for the WIN at Martinsville (a short track were bumping and banging are common). Gordon would have done the SAME thing! How many times in the past has he done the "bump and run" on someone to win at Bristol???

Tearing Matt's car up and costing them BOTH the race was both uncalled for and stupid on Gordo's part...

Also--comparing this to Carl's "bump" is a little out there, don't ya think? Carl was 100 laps down and intentionally dumped someone. Matt was racing for the win at a short track and got aggressive... BIG DIFFERENCE.

I hope Matt pays him back... ;)

Exactly! He used to do it to Rusty all the time!


I hope Matt pays him back... ;)

Same here. ;)

:p well...I see I am in the minority on this one...:p

[yatesracing]

It shouldn't be a surprise, after all, I for one, would never back another mfg when and if a FORD DRIVER WOULD BE INVOLVED.. DON'T FEEL BAD BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN THE MINORITY many times due to some of my comments.

[RacingDude]

I'm in the minority every time it comes to Brad K... in other words, I'm alone. :lol: LOL

So don't feel bad, Jenny. ;)
