The race starts in an hour and a half and I’m sitting in an Ikea. Kill me please.

What the hell are you doing in a piece of furniture?

 

[StandOnIt]

Looks like the wind isn't going to be a factor today

Anyone else still adjusting to Paul Menard driving the 21? Seeing him in a Wood Brothers firesuit just looks weird.

No as much as adjusting to seeing Blaney in a Menard's fire suit occasionally.

That's one of those little Korean rice-burners, right? Like the kids trick out?

Try the meatballs.

Try the meatballs.

Considered it. Line was down the stairs haha.

 

[Revman]

Try the meatballs.

They have meatballs there?

 

[Conover]

Looking forward to the race. Putting it on DVR as we’re going to the pool for the rest of the PM. Finally got to the upper 70’s here. Pool is heated so it should be great.

Go Chase, Blaney and Bubba!

Only when you or I are on the premises.

They also have a Swedish breakfast for $2

You know, does anyone miss the good ol days when Hendrick Motor Sports were the villains of NASCAR?

The way Toyota is now?

Given Hendrick's dominance for 20+ years, it was just more fun

They can't race unless they pass inspection. NASCAR has been clear about this. And with each failed attempt, the penalties keep going up.

 

[jaqua19]

What else is new?

 

[Mopardh9]

No doubt Knaus cheated it up, if I remember correctly they got bagged in Vegas about 6 years ago in post race.

Good (not great) invocation ... Very close to the worst anthem I've heard to date. Not even in time
