Mears upset with R.Gordon	Permalink

From Nascar.com: LAS VEGAS -- One of the earliest wrecks at Las Vegas Motor Speedway in Sunday's UAW-DaimlerChrysler 400 involved drivers Casey Mears and Robby Gordon. Mears was none too pleased about it afterward. "It amazes me," Mears said. "Every time I think Robby can't do anything any more stupid than he's already done, he one-ups himself. "It's so early in the race. The tires are some of the hardest tires to drive we've had all year. It's such a long race and he puts us three-wide going into Turn 1. It's ridiculous. He's trying to pull something off in the first opening laps when it means nothing. I guess he's trying to be a hero, you know?" Mears spent a good bit of the afternoon in the garage getting his No. 25 Chevrolet repaired, but he did eventually make it back onto the track to complete 141 of the race's 267 laps. He finished 40th. Robby Gordon's No. 7 Ford escaped with much less damage and ended up completing 266 laps for a 17th-place finish. __________________
