It was fun and exciting and something that everyone will be talking about and all you can think is which suit will complain and eliminate anyone from doing it again.

It was awesome, fun, exciting, and great, but it probably should be prevented in the future. If nothing else, this becoming a thing in races will result in accidents that hurt people, possibly spectators, eventually. It's the spirit of NASCAR..."That was awesome and brilliant....now never do it again!"

This is one of maybe 3 or 4 tracks where it would even be possible. But no doubt NASCAR should prevent this in the future by dictating anything not the racing surface can't be used for a pass

I just wonder how it's enforced? Subjectively? Like what about some of the epic finishes of old where the two leaders spin each other out and go careening through the grass trioval frontstretch and across the line? Could the guy in second therefore not be allowed to pass during that wreck in the grass?

What about legitimately during other wrecks where some cars have had to go real low and even into the grass to get by safely and pass everyone?

I think this will be immensely difficult to write a rule for objectively and it will have to be left up to race officials to decide on individual occurrences.
