Cup RACE thread --- Bristol

[superchuck500]

Why is NASCAR so quick to call the race? This place has lights!

They haven't called it

 

[Mopardh9]

They haven't called it

Getting to the point where they probably will.

 

[DSquad48]

They better not call it. The racing has been great and there's a window after about an hour of rain.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Looks like a tiny rain cell. If NASCAR calls it based on this small shower that is plain disrespectful.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Here's what the radar looks like. Bristol is the plus (+) east of Kingsport.

Looks like a small blob of rain, but there's a lot of widely scattered precipitation (mostly light) in the area.

EDIT: Some precipitation is in the form of sleet.

Well...I have lost all faith in these vortexes after this weekend

Agree racing has been awesome.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

NASCAR says 2 to go to green

 

[Kiante]

StarCom Racing is in 19th place with Cassill.

Good ****.

 

[superchuck500]

I don't think they're going to call it just because they can. I think they're going to look at the radar and if it's realistic, they're going to wait.

 

[Racer1930]

Something went wrong with the tire delivery for Nascar? I am stunned

 

[AdoubleU24]

Is this Alan Gustafson's fault?

First time he's been busted all year. Pick another driver, dude. The guy is 23 laps down and you take time to copy and paste this tweet? Smh.

“They just gave 2 to go and it will be 1 to go when they come back by I think” - DW

Hamlin gets free pass.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Wet track and dirt track phenom Kyle Larson.

Lets go.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

The #43 became an RCR car?

When did that happen?

 

[superchuck500]

Chevys seem fairly sporty today. Good sign for that group

Should have DW versus Jethro Bodine on "Math Jeopardy".

Man I love a Bristol race with all these beat in bumpers

 

[Johali]

42 running the 18 down again, 2 tenths of a second back.

 

[superchuck500]

17 moving up quickly

I'm not picking on him. I'm poking at you guys.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Harvick's "Closer" nickname hasn't applied in forever. Stop using it

 

[Johali]

42 to the lead.

 

[DIDIT]

Yes...KDL to the lead

 

[*WEAVER*]

Larson's the real deal.

 

[Efisher131]

I love the Kyle and Kyle show. They're the two most exciting drivers in the sport IMO.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Larson pulling away in a hurry. Already basically a second ahead.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Wallace from hero to zero

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

This is kind of getting anticlimactic.

 

[superchuck500]

17 has been clocking on the leader. For a while now.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

This is kind of getting anticlimactic.

Oh please. We just had a pass for the lead.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Wallace from hero to zero

Amazing to run out front and lead laps in that car.

 

[Racer1930]

LOL - "pigeons at feeding time"

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Stenhouse is going to win at Bristol one of these days

 

[ChexOrWrex]

These cars are beat the hell up and drivers battling hard. We need this.

 

[Efisher131]

Hey KDB I thought you were good on long runs?

 

[DIDIT]

Who is going to bring out the late race caution? Maybe Bayne again?
