Who wants to talk about the race?

Didn't take long as Skinner had a tire go down, the 66 got tapped and Rusty knocked in the front end of the 2 hitting the 66.

I hope they get all these commercials out of the way early so we can see some of this race.

Good to see you made it through that storm OK. :)
 
Is it just my settings or is the TRACK NOISE way high on NBC? I can hardly hear (if at all) the announcers voices there is so much background noise.. Anyone else? When I get the sound turned up high enough to hear what is being said the neighbors complain!

I wish they wouldn't let Skinner in a cup car anymore.
I know it was a tire and not his fault, but if he wasn't there he wouldn't have taken out my driver.
Skinner don't belong in a cup car. He must somehow be related to Derrike Cope.
 
Jr seems to like that high line! They sure fixed up that place quickly after the tornado in July!

I swear, they are spending more time on commercials than the race :(
 
Betsy, I'm not having any problems with the audio. Also, if you have Trackpass, you can mute the TV and listen to the radio broadcast.

Denny is very mature for his age and I predict a bright future for hm.
 
Nice finish for Mark.....
Tony's lead grows and grows...
Jeff Burton had a great run today.
Congrats to Carl !!!! :beerbang:
 
Ford wins and 5 Fords in the top 10. 60% of Fords in the top 10.
Good day for Jack Roush. (Anyone figure why they're implementing that cap on owner cars?).
Sad for Rusty, good day for Mark.
Excellent day for Carl Edwards!!
Good run for JR., glad they got their crew chiefs back in the right place.
 
RUSTY :( I sure hope he has some great runs in the next 3 races to go out in style
 
Anybody but me notice that Kurt Busch declined to be interviewed? I wonder who he's pizzed at, eh?
 
Congrats to Carl.......yea!! jeff finished second!!!!
