From what I could tell, Matt was losing the handle in the middle of the turns and Jeff was gaining on him. It appeared to me that he was moving down to protect his lead and came up on a lapped car and checked up while trying to protect his lead, and Jeff had a run going and tagged him in the rear. It didn't looked intentional to me, but who knows...either way, I think Jeff would have gotten around him before the checker.
BTW, I am a Gordon fan...have been ever since I watched him running the midgets and the sprints on Thursday Night Thunder at Raceway Park. Like him or not, he can wheel a race car.
Did anyone catch the ARCA race? That 16 year old kid can wheel a car! IMO, it was neat to watch Todd Bowsher come from 34th to 13th. I admit I'm prejudiced, as we both work for the same company.
