500 RACE thread

[AdoubleU24]

People complain when you bring up shortening race lengths but this mofo is about to hit hour 5 on a school night.

School is out here tomorrow, let em race!

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Happy for Gibbs but a Hamlin win always sucks.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Ross got a top 10. Yeah boy

 

[donthaveanickname]

Hamlin over KDB at any time.
Congrats #11!

 

[Robert Ford]

Great job Denny!!

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

McDowell screwed Logano by helping Kyle. Never less after the passing of J.D. JGR needed this. Congrats to them.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

There's some real emotion from Coach!!

 

[Flyer22]

We waited all night to watch an idiot win this race....thanks 34 for the help. Go race for Toyota

 

[Joker]

Congrats Hamlin, he's been overdue for a win.

 

[ToyYoda]

Way to go Denny, congrats on getting Daytona 500 win #2!

 

[Efisher131]

Anticlimactic but cool for Denny to win for JD

 

[jws926]

Fitting that Denny wins, and happy for JGR , and happy it was Denny and not Kyle

 

[FLRacingFan]

Good for Denny and Gibbs but man that was anticlimactic. Not enough cars left at the end.

 

[Mispeedway15]

There ya go Denny! Dude can flat out race on plate tracks

 

[machinistman3]

Wow I’m glad a JGR car won. What a story

Mcdowell was not entitled to push Joey.

 

[Flyer22]

At least we will now get to watch Hamlin make a few really bonehead moves and take out real contenders in this years playoffs.

 

[Madman88]

I'm thrilled for Denny and what a memory for JD

 

[Greg]

Jamie Little victory lane works for me.

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Hamlin..... Chase Ticket punched

The crowd shouts its support.

People just luv this guy. Err not.

 

[Johnny G]

Those interviews on the front strench are amoung the stupidest things theyve ever started doing.

 

[Madman88]

yeah, one interview is enough..........

 

[HoneyBadger]

Those interviews on the front strench are amoung the stupidest things theyve ever started doing.

No it's not. We get raw emotion, and the fans get to see it. I hate that victory lane is in the infield at most tracks out of sight of fans and only visible to VIPs.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Hell yeah Denny!!! Woulda preferred Kyle but oh well. Downside of liking too many drivers lol

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Ah, you must have missed the days of the PVC pipe barrier to keep them from climbing onto the roof. Now, that was genius.

I love them. Saturday night style under the flagstand is the best imo.

And the media, NASCAR, its all about fans, till its time for Victory Lane

 

[Towmater]

Good for the Coach and Denny.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Good lord Denny alteast look excited

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Things more exciting than a Hamlin win.

Root Canal.
Splinters
A thumb hit by a hammer.
Kidney stones.

[SpeedPagan]

I had to leave the race and go take care of the dogs. I'm glad to see that Jimmie at least rallied to a 9th place finish.

One of my favorite things about Martinsville. They roll a stage out on the frontstretch with the coveted clock on it and use that as victory lane. Right in front of the fans, the way it should be.

 

[mkline]

Sour puss look on Kyle like normal.

They should do post race inspection that way. I'd stay to watch it.

I do want to say thank you for you'll for making this 500 better than it would have been without all of your involvement. I know I haven't been around long and haven't posted much but I have read your banter throughout the years for a long time and have enjoyed it

Thank you for letting me be apart of it and I look forward to future threads,

For any of you I offended or otherwise pissed off, I am sorry and I apologize as that was not the intention. I do realize that all of us will never agree on everything and will have some opinions that vary but I hope we could at least get together when we are in the same towns for a dinner and shake hands when we leave.

I am happy to discuss anything in private, most thing in public, and will in the end except differing opinions in the end.

Thank you all and mostly to the guy that runs this site to allowing me to participate.

It means a lot to me....

 

[RollingCode]

KB definitely not happy about 2nd.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Well everyone enjoyed chanting with you all as usual. See ya’ll for Atlanta

 

[dpkimmel2001]

Sour puss look on Kyle like normal.

At least he didn't run away from the mic. Might be maturing.

 

[DewChaser988]

A pity the only two Gibbs drivers I could stand either DNFed or were out of contention
