Great save by McMurray and his teammate Sterling gets the win.

[@jaydenh922]

Don’t worry, they’re just having fun! Look at the smiles on their faces.

[@RAID3R63]

Jamie always had incredible car control

[@aintnoway686]

This didn't take long before a wreck

[@kingofrunescapepking]

Ah, yes. The race that was over before it started.

NASCAR 06 Total Team Control Challenge Jamie McMurray 42 Texaco/Havoline Dodge Charger Not This Time 1:07:35 In the race he was leading the event most of the night as he got challenged by both the 19 of Jeremy Mayfield and the 40 of Sterling Marlin as both McMurray and Mayfield were battling for the win in the Nextel open race as both were passed by Marlin and both settled for podium results in second and third. In the challenge he was in the 2005 version of the Texaco/Havoline Dodge as with three laps to go the player has another chance to change history by lining up in the lead and hold off both Mayfield and Marlin to win the race.

moments before the open here in 2019... It's so sad to see the stands now to then.... SMH

[@321gofast7]

Really? The All Star weekend seemed like it had some pretty filled up stands, and the people that didn't go there probably regret it now.

[@goldleaf889]

@@321gofast7 it filled in towards the end of the open! Still Charlotte did take out seats but in 2019 that was a decent crowd

[@kingofrunescapepking]

The strange thing is there would be another 11-car pileup in that exact same area of the track in the All-Star Challenge.

[@geminiman7791]

Well... Not really because this happend at the line but in the all star race it happend and turn 1!

[@kingofrunescapepking]

No it didn't, the double-dogleg is essentially the entire length of the front straightaway

[@geminiman7791]

Yes, But the lap 1 wreck happend befor they got to the double-dogleg.

[@Pabig93]

I thought this was the worst start or restart ever. Then the Busch Clash of 2020 happened.

[@kingofrunescapepking]

Actually, the wreck in the All-Star Race was triggered in the double-dogleg.

[@tnwhiskey68]

Mayfield needed his tail beat for that start!

[@michealconnell7499]

Bro what? How he supposed to know the guy infront him who started outside pole, engine goes out at start of race ??????

[@michealconnell7499]

He had no time react. Obviously you’re a clown

[@michealconnell7499]

Also not mention the 40 car got Into mayfield WHICH CAUSED HIM TO RAM THE 41🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

[@skyhigh335]

i felt so bad and gutted kerry earnhardt was involved in the pileup

[@michaelclayton7367]

Kerry Earnhardt and now Jeff E are only there to get paid,sad to see but they are not racers but they are filler that is they fill the track so it appears to be full of cars and we like a track that is full of cars.

[@DerrickRG]

Shut the fuck up Michael.

[@fly5155]

Kerry got wrecked. How is that his fault? He didn't do anything wrong.

[@tnwhiskey68]

Man, Dale Jr was still young and hadn't made his mind up that he was the man yet. I think after he left DEI and become "the driver" then he laid back and relaxed.

[@krngclanfan8323]

they should do the all star race at eldora

[@rodneyrhonemus3197]

@15:40 Dale Jr is a Republican hahahaha

[@julymiller9296]

Anybody else notice the bottom five... Those OUT... Kept switching places?! Flat. Out. Stupid.

[@geminiman7791]
