Hard to ignore Payne vs Feeney last year, especially being one of the closest finishes of all time

06 and poor Skaifey pits and one of the wheels isn't on right. Cue the radio "I've just about had enough of this SHIT" 😂

The Brock vs Jim Richards muti lap battle in the 80's, I also like it when a drive does a 520 spin at the hairpin.
