500 RACE thread --- Daytona

[HoneyBadger]

I'm not a fan of Clint in the booth, but does Kevin Harvick always have to take these cheap shots at him?

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

From bad to worse for Allgaier.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Heim winning a cup race before Ty Gibbs would be hilarious

 

[Turtle84]

Toyota all-out 3 wide

 

[Greg]

Corey Heim UNCHAINED !!!!

A couple hours of freedom before they lock him back up.

 

[Naitch]

Let’s go Heim! The Preacher has to be loving this.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

A couple hours of freedom before they lock him back up.

Before he’s back into the chains of Bondage?

 

[HoneyBadger]

So, here's a question:

What do 23XI and TRD do if Corey Heim wins the Daytona 500?

 

[rd45usa]

Slowed down even more, running 51+ second laps.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Let’s go Heim! The Preacher has to be loving this.

It would be HILARIOUS if Corey Heim won a race before Baby Rev. I mean, it was already hilarious that Josh Berry won a race before him.

 

[Hawaii808]

Heim winning a cup race before Ty Gibbs would be hilarious

That’s petty as hell…and I’m here for it!

 

[DanicaFreak]

Toyota take over

 

[Naitch]

So, here's a question:

What do 23XI and TRD do if Corey Heim wins the Daytona 500?

The same thing that happened with Trevor Bayne. Add a couple of races but nothing changes.

There’s nowhere to put Heim right now.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

The 9 is the only bullet left for HMS. What a rough day for them

 

[2 Sweet]

So, here's a question:

What do 23XI and TRD do if Corey Heim wins the Daytona 500?

Kick Herbst to the curb and tell Monster to support Heim.

Obviously it won't happen for several reasons. But it should

 

[Charlie Spencer]

So, here's a question:

What do 23XI and TRD do if Corey Heim wins the Daytona 500?

Nothing. He's already declared he's running for points in another series, and earned points there.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

The same thing that happened with Trevor Bayne. Add a couple of races but nothing changes.

I hope Legacy steals him. Especially with JJ’s talk of a 3rd charter for 27

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

 

[Magicmiler]

No, he's not right. He's just defending his new favorite teenager, excusing Gio by saying "that's just Daytona" or whatever he said when it happened.

What Justin did was a mistake. What Gio did was intentional..

Of course I'm defending my 'new' teenage driver.
Hopefully it doesn't take him over 450 races to win a Major Series Championship like Justin .
Maybe someday Justin will be Cup caliber..
Or Justin will forever be another Matt Crafton.

 

[Greg]

Before he’s back into the chains of Bondage?

Note how they are keeping him pinned down to the inside groove, away from the wall or an escape.

 

[HoneyBadger]

There’s nowhere to put Heim right now.

35 car.

I mean, I doubt they do it.

 

[DIDIT]

Somebody’s gonna shove a Toyota out of there

 

[HoneyBadger]

Nothing. He's already declared he's running for points in another series, and earned points there.

They still do that dumbass ****?

There are so many rules that need to go away now that The Chase is back.

 

[LukeWatts05]

Up here in Charleston SC, the rain is still going. Looks like its gonna hit Daytona beach in about an hour and a half, maybe 2 hours.

 

[BarneyB1]

Wake me up when they decide to play.

 

[LukeWatts05]

Glad he owns up to it rather than blaming denny

 

[2 Sweet]

Maybe someday he'll be Cup caliber..
Or forever be another Matt Crafton.

OK. Literally everyone in here is blaming the 40 for that wreck, so I'm not even sure what your point is?

If Gio didn't intentionally wreck the leader in that ARCA race, then his racecraft is even worse than Natalie Decker. So he's either a lying tool, or a clueless hack. Take your pick

 

[jaqua19]

So, here's a question:

What do 23XI and TRD do if Corey Heim wins the Daytona 500?

Nothing. He's gonna get poached by HMS into the 48 after this season.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

And I'm sure he will take the blame.

First thing he said.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Oh dear god. Cody Ware lurking in 12th.

 

[DanicaFreak]

Somebody’s gonna shove a Toyota out of there

Weird it hasn’t happened yet

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Nothing. He's gonna get poached by HMS into the 48 after this season.

That’d be fantastic but I think that seat is being warmed for Day.

 

[jaqua19]

This is what happens "thinks he's the smartest guy in the room" is every driver and crew chief in this race lol

 

[Magicmiler]

You know he won a race, right? The driver has undeniable talent.
A racing incident is just that.
He Won at 1 out of 3 races at Daytona in the same weekend.
Pretty good in most people's opinion.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Oh dear god. Cody Ware lurking in 12th.

He’ll get shuffled out once it’s go time.

 

[Greg]

This can't be!
Ty cant let Heim win! 66.6 rounds out to 67!!!

 

[LukeWatts05]

get ready for some pit action. Toyotas are collecting on the bottom lane

 

[jaqua19]

That’d be fantastic but I think that seat is being warmed for Day.

Missing out on Zilisch (who i doubt will be a lifer at Trackhouse) and Heim would be the biggest miss in HMS history.

The best talent always finds his way to HMS. That's what history tells us.

 

[JBone88]

Heim will be at 23XI fulltime next year.

I don’t know how happy Tyler Reddick is there right now. My bold prediction is he jumps ship after this year. Maybe for Hendrick.

 

[Greg]

Will one more pit stop get them to the end?
