2017 Daytona - Coke Zero 400 - Pre Race Thread

[jws926]

Yeah, say that three times fast

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Even the command is a bonafied advertisement

Get the hell outta here LOL

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Oh, geez, what a wimpy "start your engines" Boooooooo

 

[*WEAVER*]

Is he done yet?

 

[Johnny G]

"Monster Energy Sprint Cup Race" lol

Promptly outdone by the command to fire engines. "Start your..................... made with American ethanol!"

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

WTF was that command?

 

[jws926]

Oh, geez, what a wimpy "start your engines" Boooooooo

There was no enthusiasm at all

 

[donthaveanickname]

What was that?!? He abused the most famous words in motorsports.
Or was forced to abuse them, I guess..

Can you put 'Murican ethanol in a Toyoter?

Getting us ready for NBC's mid-race commercial marathon.

 

[SlicedBread22]

Weakest command ever

 

[ChexOrWrex]

I dont mind all the sucking up.

Sure they sound fake as hell but whatever. They did the same with Gordon and it was nauseating then too.

The difference with Jeff & Jr is that Jeff was considered a threat to win every weekend, so it was expected for him to be covered. FFS, he changed the face of the sport.

Jr on the other hand...

If they'd handed me that paper, I'd have handed it back, said 'Thank you', and left.

 

[jws926]

Weakest command ever

Not even sure that was a command, more like a advert for Sunoco

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

I yelled "BOOOOO!!!" at my TV when that a-hole ruined the command.

 

[*WEAVER*]

You know it's gonna be bad when a guy has to have a piece of paper to read the command.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

You know it's gonna be bad when a guy has to have a piece of paper to read the command.

I wondered why he needed a script for four words. Then I found out.

 

[JGR_20]

Kind of glad there's not 1 million patriotic cars in this race, as bad as that sounds. It's just kind of nice to see the normal cars for this

 

[ChexOrWrex]

"HIS FINAL START AT DAYTONA"

Too bad Dale has already expressed interest in running the Daytona 500 & The Clash after retirement.

 

[JGR_20]

Is Dale Jr Driving the Pace car too?

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Now thats cool

 

[Charlie Spencer]

What's the point of servicemen on pit road facing AWAY from the cars?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Is someone gonna count how often he'll be mentioned tonight?

 

[jws926]

Is Dale Jr Driving the Pace car too?

Yes

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Is Dale Jr Driving the Pace car too?

Both pace cars.

 

[Reck]

What's the point of servicemen on pit road facing AWAY from the cars?

They were expecting the cars to be on the track. My guess.

 

[jws926]

Ok, that was pretty cool

 

[ChexOrWrex]

What's the point of servicemen on pit road facing AWAY from the cars?

Nobody gave the about face order

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Beautiful anthem

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Nobody's patriotic scheme is topping Chris Burns' Late Model Stock Car.

 

[jws926]

Can............we just get this race started

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Playing the "dale jr drinking game" like

 

[JGR_20]

And tonight dale jr carries all the onboard cameras. Both rear number cams as well...

 

[Michfan]

I'm now posting from my local hospital. I tried playing the Dale Jr drinking game.

 

[MikeInIllinois]

Appears they're going to try and stretch the pace laps to throw the green at precisely 8:00 p.m.

You poor SOB

 

[Charlie Spencer]

They're hoping for rain so they can run this tomorrow.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

I might be missing ESPN by the end of this broadcast.
