Jeff Gordon is one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history. In his final full-time season, he's looking to go out on top by winning the championship. But in 2015, he'll have to fight against a stacked field filled of former and future champions to conquer the most unfair and unforgiving championship system in motorsports.

Southern California has always been a tough nut to crack for NASCAR.

Despite everything, this region has given the sport some of its most iconic drivers, tracks, and moments. Follow me on social media: bsky.app/profile/mplb0001.bsky.social

The End of Brandon Brown

Normally, winning a NASCAR race doesn't have much of a downside to it. But for Brandon Brown, his first career NASCAR victory was overshadowed in the most obnoxious way possible, leading him down a path of political controversies, pissed-off sponsors, and dying dreams.

    You honestly make an entire video on the 2015 Talladega Chase race. The amount of crazy scenarios and what ifs surrounding this race and its outcome is honestly astonishing when you look into it. Junior smoking the tires, Biffle almost winning, Denny's roof hatch, the ending, the timing of the caution, Harvick not being penalized, etc. The amount of craziness surrounding this race and what could've been really shaped not just the outcome of the race, but the season and NASCAR history as we know it.

    I'm glad Gordon was still able to be competitive in his last 5 seasons, and he got to compete for the title in his final season. But you got to admit that Kyle Busch pulled off one of the greatest comebacks in Nascar history coming back from his injuries

    28:55 this single handedly changed my outlook on how hard Logano raced Kenseth, and the outcome of it. I can’t believe I never went back and looked at the points situation entering the race since that day (I was 13 or 14 at the time and didn’t really understand everything that was happening). Sure Logano didn’t need to win the race, but having the chance to knock a championship threat out of the Chase (and making the next race harder for the 20 team) by not letting Kenseth win the race is some forward thinking very few fans would have understood that day.

    In fairness to joey. Matt blocked him 3 times the 2nd time he blocked him in to the wall and the 3rd time was one time tomany and joey was thare. Now joey still could have lifted but its the last lap and i dont thank its his job to lift or swerve out of matts way. So in short i thank what joey did was perfectly fine and matt was in the wrong, life is a lot more complicated than that and matt was a popular driver who needed that win and it really turnd the sport against him. Some times you can loose the war by winning the battle.

    Crazy to think bc the landlord system awarded 5-4-3 points per position depending on where you are in the field vs the modern day 1 points per position essentially petty won 1974 by somewhere between 1/3 and 1/5th of a point in the modern system
