Cup RACE thread --- Bristol

[Rick]

The people responsible for Chevy's ad campaign should be shot.

"Which emoji describes this here vehicle?"

"How many holes do you think we can put in this truck bed?"

"One word to describe this sitting-in-automobile experience?"


FFS

They must figure that around 50% of the population is actually that dumb.

 

[aunty dive]

Apparently Government Motors is in the middle of an $877 million refit at a Flint plant that will produce ... wait for it ...
aluminum pickups.

Departments not talking to each other.

 

[BobbyFord]

They have to get it going because what else do we have to do?

 

[29-4]

Couldn't we do away with the competition caution here? Does anyone think there are wear issues?

You just better know for sure this next cell does not contain lightning. Looking at the radar there is some heavy convection so there's either torrential rain or some static/lightning within the cell.

Imagine the idiots refusing to buy them because of their weak beds.

 

[BobbyFord]

In all seriousness, it really is amazing how many fans there still are in the stands.

Racecars and alcohol are great weather deterrents.

I can see their curled lips already

How big is the cell?

$100+ tickets.

Honestly, I love that they are trying, but it makes me giggle a bit with what the weather looks like.

It is true that storms tend to dissipate as the night goes on in the summer...I'm not hopeful either though...

 

[Brentford]

The line of storms in Kingsport is getting a bit larger. Hopefully they pay attention to the lightning strikes and get the fans out of the stands in enough time.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

From the looks of the radar, I doubt there'll be too much racing tonight.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Rain looks literally 3-5 miles away according to the radar....

40 years in the southeastern US, and that hasn't been my experience.

No.

No tire changes are allowed.

 

[Rick]

3 miles

Exactly. To bring everyone back into the stands for this could be a stupid decision of epic proportions...

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

I give it to them for trying to get it back going, but there is no point

 

[aunty dive]

You're asleep at night. How would you know?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

If my brother and I could afford to have them close off Monaco for us, I'd hope we could afford better cars to race.

 

[4tires17gals]

do 80 mph under green yellow do 400 laps be done at 1 am

Detectors.

Doesn't the private club that employs you have them?

 

[Michfan]

do 80 mph under green yellow do 400 laps be done at 1 am

Huh

 

[Charlie Spencer]

You're asleep at night. How would you know?

I've been awakened by thunder-boomers on many a summer's night / early morning.

 

[BobbyFord]

I'm going to watch however much there is

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

[Brentford]

Pretty sure Kyle Busch would be okay with that.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

We also have alarms/sirens. A lot of more powerful and attention getting than a PA system....

 

[aunty dive]

I'm going to watch however much there is

Ditto.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

HAHA....I'm sorry but this is one of the dumbest things I've seen nascar do in 30 years. WTF were they thinking?!?!

 

[Brentford]

Imagine all the storms suddenly fall apart. NASCAR would look like a genius.

 

[BobbyFord]

@#%*+=¥!!!!

 

[slash14]

omfg...like why even try..?

 

[lisa]

****.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Good night.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I'm going to watch however much there is

You already have.

 

[Brentford]

Not going to take long for them to call it now.

 

[aunty dive]

I've been awakened by thunder-boomers on many a summer's night / early morning.

Just trying to help.
