Rain shower 10 miles out

NO !!...no.no,no.....no, no.

(long way to 1/2 way...but laps go fast at Bristol)

 

[JEB]

He's not out.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I've seen lead fall out of the frame rails, but a battery? Dang.

 

[JEB]

Ive been watching nascar for a long time and seen weird things, but never a tp problem on the track lol.

 

[BobbyFord]

48 car is in the way.

 

[DSquad48]

"Almost spun Hamlin around!!" uhhhh...

 

[Racer1930]

I've seen lead fall out of the frame rails, but a battery? Dang.

Yep...gotta pay for the good twisty ties...

 

[FLRacingFan]

Harvick is charging. Better in race trim yet again.

 

[lisa]

Come on Kurt. *clapping*


Man, this has been an exciting race.

 

[Reck]

Gordon is moving. Up to P24 as of a minute ago.

Gordon is moving. Up to P24 as of a minute ago.

Minor Aero trouble shouldn't hurt him too much at Bristol.

 

[Matthew2470]

22 is effed.

 

[FLRacingFan]

No power steering is killing Logano.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Logano is in big trouble.

 

[JEB]

Logano has weak skinny noodle arms. He needs power steering.

 

[mreed]

No power steering for spaghetti arms

 

[Reck]

What are these guys talking about? They didn't have power steering back in the day here so tough it up bud.

 

[Matthew2470]

24 running fast laps. Says car is slightly tight but good.

 

[BobbyFord]

Joey's little sparrow arms aren't gonna hang with no P/S

 

[Matthew2470]

48 flat tire.

 

[Racer1930]

#22 is debris on track at this point....WHOA...tire down for JJ !!!

 

[BobbyFord]

What are these guys talking about? They didn't have power steering back in the day here so tough it up bud.

They weren't turning 15 second laps back in the day, either.

 

[Nitro Dude]

No, 34 ragan drove into 24 on pit road. Gordon made another stop to fix the damage. 3rd to 35th. It's early and he has a good car. He should be ok.

How do you run into someone with your left rear fender?

 

[lisa]

Tired down for JJ. wow.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

That will end JJ's chances of winning today.

 

[Matthew2470]

Raining.

 

[BobbyFord]

sweet

 

[FLRacingFan]

Same thing happened to Johnson and Gordon last year when they didn't change tires here. Maybe this will hammer the point home.

 

[JEB]

Good save Ernie Irvan

 

[Reck]

They weren't turning 15 second laps back in the day, either.

So they were running what? 16-18 second laps? Wow enlightening.

 

[lisa]

crap rain.

 

[Matthew2470]

Jeff cane over radio and said "woo this thing's awesome!"

 

[Reck]

That will end JJ's chances of winning today.

You're so quick on the trigger today stew. Haha

 

[Racer1930]

$&@(!%! Rain....rain...go away.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I think 2 tire strategy just went out the window.

 

[slash14]

JJ 41st 4 laps down....this race just got a lot better

 

[DSquad48]

Chad: "Jimmie the rest of the tire is ****ing fine, dude, the tread just fell off. It's not even flat."

 

[Matthew2470]

What are these guys talking about? They didn't have power steering back in the day here so tough it up bud.

Totally different steering mechanisms back then. Think about trying to drive a modern passenger car with no power steering.

 

[JEB]

How do you run into someone with you left rear fender?

Pit road at Bristol. 34 was entering as 24 was leaving. No one is at fault there, just bad timing.

 

[mreed]

48 car 2 laps down

 

[BobbyFord]

Who takes two tires, early, at Bristol??? Oh, yeah...the guy two laps down
