Atlanta RACE thread

Damn, Harvick just has a rocketship tonight.

Normally I would never EVER ever ever root for Harvick, but if a Harvick win would bring Tony some solace, then I'd be OK with it.

 

[JEB]

I don't know that Tony will ever be "normal" again. There will be flashes of old Tony, but this is going to weigh on him for
a long, long time.

Absolutely. Normal has a different meaning now.

Gordon up to 8th on the race track....but can't get a lap back.

Lower grille is knocked out of the 88. Sounds like no radiator damage, fixing now...

Harvick or Kenseth and I'd be happy

The 22 looks really good

 

[KevinWI]

Guess where Jimmy Fennig is from.

 

[BobbyFord]

Wow, can't imagine Fennig being done on the box

 

[Kiante]

No way, Fennig is retiring?

Wow. That is a major blow for Roush crew chief wise. Shame to lose good minds like his.

 

[#17D500winner]

Guess where Jimmy Fennig is from.

Earth?

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Dang, Jimmy Finnig calling it quits after the season.

 

[JEB]

24 is a rocket. Too bad he can't catch a break tonight

 

[beantownkid10]

Gordon to 5th on the track. Looks like we're gonna need to pass the leader the old fashioned way to get back to 1 lap down.

 

[BobbyFord]

Guess where Jimmy Fennig is from.

The Old School?

 

[Turn5ive]

Where is Jimmy Fennig from?

 

[ToyYoda]

Guess where Jimmy Fennig is from.

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say Wisconsin?

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Where is Jimmy Fennig from?

Wisconsin

 

[JEB]

Where is Jimmy Fennig from?

The land of unicorns and badasses. Great place.

Robbie Reiser is the only guy worth a damn at RFR after this year. At any level. Driver, crew chief, the guy who sweeps the floor.

Okay, the guy who sweeps the floor is okay.

 

[KevinWI]

The land of unicorns and badasses. Great place.

You got that right!

 

[Turn5ive]

When you say WISSSSSSCONSIN.

You said it all.

Bum bum.

 

[Speedbowl14]

What's up with ESPN's love obsession with Motely Crüe?

 

[KevinWI]

When you say WISSSSSSCONSIN.

You said it all.

Bum bum.

Whatever man. Dick Trickle, Alan Kulwicki, Dave Marcis, Jimmy Fenning, Robbie Reiser. Wisconsin breeds BMFers.

 

[carolinabuff]

This is cool:

Claire B Lang ‏@ClaireBLang 31s
In some cases all this media here is not bad at all. One nat reporter told me today how cool the fans he met were. Some will like NASCAR

 

[BobbyFord]

I'm sure Jimmy stays at RFR, just not up on a pitbox.

 

[ToyYoda]

The land of unicorns and badasses. Great place.

And cheese. Don't forget the cheese.

Another ridiculous caution at the worst damn time....such a joke.

 

[Turn5ive]

Kevin, I'm the biggest Wisconsin homer you'll ever meet. My entire basement is a shrine to Kenseth, Kulwicki and Musgrave.

The "bum bum" is the end of the Budweiser song that the University of Wisconsin band adopted in the 80s.

 

[ToyYoda]

An Oral-B commercial immediately followed by an M&M's commercial. Mixed messages.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Ty is only a couple of spots behind Austin. I hope he manages to beat him.

Seeing Danica in the top 10 this late in the race is like catching Santa with his pants down feeding Rudolph carrots on your roof.

 

[ToyYoda]

omigod omigod omiod

Enjoy it, man.

 

[DaBiff1618]

Another ridiculous caution at the worst damn time....such a joke.

It's just bad luck, happens to guys every week

 

[Turn5ive]

You guys notice that Danica is really good at places where you are always on the throttle? Daytona, Kansas, Atlanta...

IndyCar-ish places. Well, to be fair IndyCar is not full throttle anywhere anymore but it used to be everywhere.

 

[JEB]

Don't get me wrong, I think it's cool when Danica does well.

 

[DanicaFreak]

I told y'all she could race

 

[Kiante]

Show the commerical again?

 

[Mr. Gregory]

No way, Fennig is retiring?

Wow. That is a major blow for Roush crew chief wise. Shame to lose good minds like his.

Yeah, that really sucks. I was hoping Biffle would have a chance to work with him next year.
