Charlotte RACE thread --- The 600

[Dr_B_UNC]

Ross just about did the Lord’s work there.

This race is so bad.

I miss when things changed so much throughout this race.

Used to be an attraction race. The cars are built too well these days for tons of mechanical failures. Plus Goodyear bringing concrete blocks with no falloff.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

This is why Goodyear sucks. We had a great wearing tire at Darlington and we come here and the tire is awful and doesn’t wear. Like seriously

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Pretty sure that was intentional. MTJ drove Ross up the track in the middle of the turn and Ross was showing his displeasure.

Wth was Chastain doing?

Its a 600 mile race. Its a typical 600, to say different is a joke.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

I bet Truex Jr. wasn't happy about a lapped car nearly wrecking him. Yikes.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I don’t think that was a misjudgment. Truex bobbled in the middle of the corner and moved Ross up the track and Ross didn’t like it.

 

[Nitro Dude]

says the Bowman whisperer. Hey there is a whole lot of race left.

You don't really think I'm putting all of my money on this race alone.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

So many people unhappy with something they get for free and that has no lasting effect in their lives.

DVR time.

 

[Kiante]

That traction compound is coming in now.

the trolls say the same thing every race. They whined for the old single file package, and now they have a race that way and guess what it is just boo who terrible.

Yep. Ross is a pitbull. Doubt he’d hesitate to move someone.

He will probably be a star on radioactive..they are racing him too hard.

It not really "free" lets be honest here.

 

[RacerrecaR]

The stages have made this race unbearable. It used to be great with the green flag pit stops and strategy.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

I sat through the Truex 392/400 in the stands. That was excruciatingly boring. At least with this I don’t have to look forward to traffic and all afterwards as I’m already home...

Chex wreck has me blocked, he did himself a favor.

 

[harkin]

Even doing that pirouette w Chastain, he still gained 3 seconds.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Correct.

Now it's the stages..frankly why do about half of ya watch. I know I know..nobody around ya will listen to your whining.

What strategy? Green flag stops would be no different. If you wanna get 2 or 4 or none then do it.

You were bored attending a live race?

He thinks they can run a hundred laps without a pit stop..don't tell him.

 

[Nitro Dude]

It doesn't make any difference who wins this race or who likes or doesn't like this race...it was worth it just to see that right there. That is awesome on Memorial Day.

 

[JBone88]

Correct.

And that’s how you stand up to a veteran trying to punk ya. Some of these kids like Blaney should take notes.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

When Truex was in his own zip code and led 392 of 400 laps? Yes. Honestly I was.

Edit: that said, the pre-race, especially Amazing Grace on bagpipes, Taps, 21 gun salute made it worth it. Such a moving experience.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Of course no one is creative and takes two tires

 

[Kiante]

YEET:

 

[carolinabuff]

Great move by NASCAR with the moment of slience

 

[AdoubleU24]

Something happened on the 9, no idea what tho I turned the scanner on too late

 

[FLRacingFan]

YEET:

Slight misjudgment

Chase asked them to pull a rubber to help handling. Since they were going to be deep in field, they came back in and worked on splitter as well. Threw a Hail Mary at it.

 

[Spotter22]

pssst. We have 200 laps to go. Wait till the last 75 or 50 for that or you are gonna get yanked

 

[Magicmiler]

Kyle too fast exiting pit road.....

 

[harkin]

 

[DewChaser988]

Also, am I not the only one frustrated with Goodyear.. The tires have no fall off at all..

Knowing them, next year they'll end up overcorrecting and end up bringing a tire to Charlotte that disintegrates after 3 laps

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

I’ll give to it Austin for once. Been in the top ten all night
