Bubba said the Cup cars need more HP - please fine and suspend!!!!!!!!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Hope Bubba got the door to his motorhome fixed.

He and Brad should just start sleeping in the car.

Just as well they stopped. I'm going to lose the satellite shortly due to the same storm front.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Hard to believe it's been 6 years since I've been to Bristol.

 

[StandOnIt]

the Penske's are looking strong right now

 

[Racer1930]

Well at least it doesn't look like a gully-washer (yet)...,maybe we can get a jet dryer vortex going

This is now 4 out of 5 years the spring Bristol race has been delayed/postponed by rain.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Here's what the radar looks like. Bristol is the plus sign (+) east of Kingsport.

Never been a big fan of them from the beginning.

Been saying NASCAR to get rid of them since they implemented then back in '15.

Random for fun video ... NASCAR racing on an oval in the rain.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Never understood why the short tracks, especially Bristol, doesnt utilize tarps for rain delays as to not lose the track.

 

[StandOnIt]

9 looking good so far!

how is the 18 doing?

 

[Kiante]

how is the 18 doing?

He can still win tho.

Chase had a top 5 car today, a shame we won't see how well he does.

Flat track.

 

[Thegeneral23]

He will win lol

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

how is the 18 doing?

Unfortunately the 18 still has a chance to turn things around. Don’t feed the troll...

Serious question: Why can't the cars be equipped with wipers and run on rain tires? I mean you could still throw out a red flag if it started coming down heavy and got too slippery or the visibility was too bad, but its just a little drizzle.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Was Byron wearing a cooling suit?

I think they said before the race to much HP not unless they was joking

Man this season is circling the bowl.

It's like the earth is flat thing

 

[BradBlaney]

Lucky Charms for Jimmies sponsor next year is almost too good to be true

Lol not even close.

[ChexOrWrex]

How the **** did EVERYONE think the red flag was over, announcers, teams, crews... but NASCAR said “nah fam”?

**** 2018

 

[Speedbowl14]

The Chase Elliot appreciation fans just spontaneously combusted...

 

[HoneyBadger]

This schedule is a dumpster fire. I was glad to see Fox pretty much call it out in the pre-race show.

Martinsville has the two worst dates on the scheduled, followed by Bristol (Spring) and Atlanta. Ironically, these are atop the list of favorite tracks for NASCAR fans.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

9 team wants to know if they can work on the car while they're being held a lap. lmao

Hoots is now holding them for more laps.

 

[Pat]

Chase needs to just go home and watch the race.

 

[ToyYoda]

RLM

I'm afraid I'm not familiar with that acronym.

 

[Thegeneral23]

lol

 

[Greg]

Tough break for Elliot, that 1 lap penalty may knock him of a top 35.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

“NASCAR WILL NEVER PENALIZE GOLDEN BOY”

Lololol

 

[ToyYoda]

Chase is gonna start Richmond 5 laps down if the 9 team keeps up like this today.
