I think it's good. Not because I am a Ford man, but because it is something a bit different, and because a good driver who worked hard was rewarded.

Im spewing but its a well deseved result. And it made a much more exciting year. The questionable points system probably helped but it would not have been as fair if he didnt win in the end.

The points system helped the championship be as interesting, ie down to the last race, as it was. I dont think it was fair , and as I said if events would have conspired to having Ambrose miss out on the championship, he would have had reason to cry foul. As it was Ingall made sure that couldnt happen by ramming Skaife into the wall.

well they dont call him the enforcer for nothing. for it to come down to the final round for skaife to meet with ingall and murphy to have car trouble and to slip a disk in his back is surprising, im sure alot people wanted some 3 way action there over the weekend

I am jusy glad Skaif didn't win. I think it is good that the blue oval won because they do have a damn good car with a good crew and an awesome driver. Next year will be very interesting.
