2014 Bristol - Food City 500 - Pre Race Thread

Just came in from 4wheelin in the woods with my grandson to get a race update . Ice covered skidoo trails through the woods are a blast this time of year.
Yeah, they sure are. I didn't go out yet as I'm not sure what's going on with this race.
 
I put this in the prime time thread but I figure it belongs here too lol... this is @ 12:50

Was that Denny Hamlin helping Tony Stewart down the walkway?
 
Ugh I'm in a serious dilemma.. Make the 1 hour drive to the lake and go boating or sit on race standby.. It's about 90* today out here...
 
"I think the weather is starting to lift guys"
Shut the **** up Mikey
 
Poor Michael is having a major problem getting interviews from the drivers at their motorcoaches. Now we know why they always show race reruns during rain delays.:D

Get the Waltrips off TV. I swear Michael is gay, and is in a complete conflict of interest by owning a team. And if I hear boogedy boogedy boogedy one more time I'm gonna puke.
 
I have to admit, I'm really enjoying FOX's pre-race show today. This is, by far, the most educational and informative pre-race show any network's had in years.
 
Chis Myers said the rain has stopped, Are we gonna see some track action yet today?
 
Track drying efforts should be quick. Concrete dries faster than asphalt and Bristol's a short track. I know Kingsport, they dry that track out in an hour. Not to mention, Air Titan. :growl: Get your beer and get your burgers, it's almost race time!

DW said earlier that it'd take 1 hour to dry Bristol.
 
Well hey if other drivers came out they could plug theirs, I don't really see a problem here.

Michael Waltrip was also plugging Bowyer's sponsors after the interview. That's a HUGE conflict of interest. You don't hear FOX Sports sitting there talking about drinking Monster Energy Drink or eating at McDonalds. Not to mention, Michael Waltrip didn't even attempt to talk to any other drivers. It was Michael Waltrip, as a FOX Sports reporter, giving the team Michael Waltrip owns and Michael Waltrip's sponsors free airtime.

Let's race!

 
They said we should be racing in about 30 to 40 minutes.

Radar looked pretty decent on that last check....but the dang green stuff keeps popping up. Fingers crossed.

Pretty much the same weather here it Atlanta...overcast, not raining, but it looks like it wants too.
