It will be interesting to see in the upcoming race, if in the last part of the race, Carl is in the lead and Tony chasing him. If a couple of guy's start racing Tony hard for position, which Tony will show up....the old angry Tony or the new, more mature Tony....

I have heard more than one commentator say that when a driver has no chance of winning the championship, they will run experimental engines. Something they will not run during the regular season, and a lot of times there are failures. They take these engines and learn from them.
Joe Gibbs has no need to run "experimental engines" since all of the engines, for all of the Toyota teams, will come from TRG in 2012'
And You know that to be a fact how?

I would bet that the competitive nature of either driver will show up if it gets down to that situation. Both Carl and Tony have been known to do a little bump in the past. For the championship? You gotta do what you gotta do.
BTW I was watching the Jimmie Johnson story/interview on the HUB, and he said something that's interesting. Jimmie Johnson started Cup racing(NASCAR) at age 26. That's how young Kyle Busch is righ now!
