I agree with Tom from Tuckahoe

Watched it live and thought it was amazing.  There was a long period of disbelief that everyone had to process it.  Now reflecting on it, it is the same as the hole-in-one from the movie Tin Cup. 

- The line where she says, no one will remember you lost the open - but they'll be talking about this hole-in-one for years.  It was, it was immortal.

What amazes me is the appearance of his technical prowess in executing the move.  If you watch the speed of the car, it almost appears as if he plants the car in the wall, runs it hard for the middle of the corner, then lets off on exit, then coasts to the wall on the front stretch.  It's almost like he studied the fence and knew how to execute the move (which makes it premeditated).  It appears that way, I wonder if the throttle trace shows any of that.

Ironically, it seems that with Keselowski disqualified for weight, he could have made it in on the tiebreaker. I think that is what I saw.
