Carl edwards’s move doesnt really seem near the same. Plenty of people have hit the wall….but only one has pulled that stunt.
Never in my life ..

carl said after the race that the move worked in the vid game,..... but not in real life....his plan was to drive it in deeper than anyone has before and use the wall to keep him in front of johnson....his angle into the wall slowed his momentum...
here's another vid of him referring to doing in a vid game

I remember that race. I was watching it. And to think, today's drivers just drive through the other car a la little ty ty, and it's completely ok. Maybe if Cousin Carl had, ol' Jimmie boy would have retired sooner ?

It doesn't look real when you watch the replays. The angle from the stands in 3 & 4 looks like slinging the kids on a tube behind the boat. He is just so much faster than the other cars. I agree that they are gonna have to address this going forward. I logged onto iracing and guess what move everyone was trying to pull....
The best was Hamlins's face after the race. He couldn't believe he got beat. It seemed as if he almost checked up a little at the line. If he would've stayed in it, he would've beat the 1 to the line.

I'm late to the party. Woke up at 4 am JUST to watch this race and have kept a very low social media profile since Sunday afternoon.
I had no idea what I was about to witness. When the 11 and 1 got into each other in the closing laps, and the 11 pulled away I felt pretty dejected. But Chastains move will forever inspire me. Guts and grit and prayers got him around those last 2 turns at seemingly fake speeds.
And the cheers the fans gave that guy will have me smiling the rest of the week. Along with the fact that Hamlin has no chance to win this years championship!

I can't "like" this post enough !
Knowing Hamlin's on the outside looking in is awesome. And...... can you EVEN IMAGINE his dismay if Christopher Bell was to win it ???
But.... we all know tge #9 car will be untouchable. Rick prolly already paid in full for it. Sadly.

Last lap at Phoenix, the ENTIRE FIELD tries the same thing.

New prediction.......
One guy out of the whole bunch decides to keep it low, and passes 25+ cars in a pileup on the last lap!
