Welcome to this ridiculous format. Having 'dega in with the final 8 is just asking for disaster.

Yeah, it's hard to believe knowing what's on the line they would take a chance on fuel. But I guess he would be in the back no matter if he had pitted or stayed out.

I was thinking Byron screwed up by not giving his teammate Larson a good push for the stage win. Then it made sense NOT to let him win and gain more points on him. IMHO, there should be no stage points.........or stages for that matter.

Kind of reminds me of DW back in the day. Being a DE fan, I never cared for him in his glory years, but he was much more likable his last 2 or 3 years.

This whole playoff and cutline thing has gotta be so stressful on these drivers and teams. As if running at this level isn't stressful enough. :confused:

Right, better than the other drivers while running around 17th points and still get the Cup. :rolleyes: He is capitalizing on this lame "playoff' system they have.

I agree with your first sentence. The current system is WWE racing.

Ok, one top ten the entire season. When he starts making a habit of it, I will pay more attention to him.

Yep, keeps sneaking in

Well that's the last we will hear SVG's name for the rest of the season since we're going back to ovals.

Speaking of Chastain..... :blink:

Why are you being a jerk? :rolleyes: I know you just love to defend this lame car, but Xfinity was also quickest in the beginning practice which is with NEW TIRES! Zilich 85.5 to Almendinger 86.6. But evidently all you want to talk about is tire fall off. I'm done here.

I knew about tire fall off, but assumed they put new tires on for qualifying. Either way, this Next Gen car is not as fast as it should be. There are several tracks where Xfinity is right with them or very close on times. Xfinity cars were also quicker in practice.

Zilich in Xfinity qualifying was nearly a second quicker than Reddick in Cup, 85.054 to 85.939. Crazy with Cup cars having independent rears, rack and pinion steering, wider tires, more gears, etc.

I will be surprised if Heim doesn't pull this off. Like every other track no matter the configuration, he can put that 11 anywhere he wants it. Must be nice! edit: Doh....of course right after I say that he starts losing time to the leader.
