You'd never know it, would you?

 

[ChexOrWrex]

That clean Stanley scheme really works

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Hey everybody! It's been a hard weekend of doing chores for my 80+ year old parents and jamming in some estuary birding. I'm ready to put the recliner through a servicability test.

 

[wi_racefan]

It is kinda wondering why the Intersate/Mars aren't on the car?

 

[harkin]

That clean Stanley scheme really works

That paint scheme and Kyle calling Gordon ‘Jim’ is a good start to the race.

 

[jws926]

Here we go!

 

[Old Kid]

That clean Stanley scheme really works

Less is more, an idea rarely seen anymore.

That 11 paint scheme just doesn't look right

 

[harkin]

That tricolor 2 scheme is nice too.

 

[Kiante]

MTJ is giving that traction compound a good workout.

Tapped the wall coming off of turn two.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Blaney's moving forward.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

That 11 paint scheme just doesn't look right

I dig it.

Creamsicle.

 

[harkin]

Creamsicle.

I was thinkin ‘Home Depex’

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Blaney's moving forward.

Penske running the fastest laps so far.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Penske running the fastest laps so far.

Burrito hanging tough.

 

[Hendrick4ever]

Dang Larson is coming fast.

 

[wi_racefan]

Been watching the 4 in car. He seems to have a good long run car

 

[Kiante]

Stenhouse is looking great today, he's got a really good car over the long run.

Jones staying strong in 12th.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

I bet those #2 pit crew members are thankful for the white suites today.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Larson loved starting in the back so much he’s doing it again.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Dang Larson is coming fast.

Backing up faster after speeding penalty.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

So that’s what the angry “man, Bubba” from D’Hondt on the radio was for...

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

12 looks like fastest car in the field

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Blaney to the lead.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Man I don’t think the #48 team hit the set up at all. Bowman has been stagnant and all of his teammates who started in the rear have passed him.

 

[Kiante]

Harvick is marching forward.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Man I don’t think the #48 team hit the set up at all. Bowman has been stagnant and all of his teammates who started in the rear have passed him.

Ok well his set up is a lot worse now, oof.

 

[34R7H130UND]

Ok well his set up is a lot worse now, oof.

Maybe that'll fix it? Lol

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Though break for Bowman. He's had nothing but bad luck in that 48 car.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

That’s an iRacing wreck there. 4X’s all around

 

[Kiante]

Oof for Bowman, looks like Chastain parked it and then Dillon got into him.

Dillon's got a lot of nose damage.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

It’s a shame that such little damage on the #3 is gonna take that car out. Cars are way too aero sensitive.

 

[Kiante]

They found the biggest piece of bearbond possible for Dillon.

Looks like enough for 5 to 6 tin-foil hats.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Chase’s team having trouble getting front tires off each stop.

Edit: crazy to me the tolerances are so tight
