Circuit of the Americas Pre-Race Thread

I do have concerns on how much I will be able to see.

There's nothing that will get me to adopt streaming faster than a dedicated NASCAR feed.

Mike Joy said Fox pays Nascar 25 million for a race. I'm all for a dedicated stream but that is some REAL money there. One can hope.

Agreed but it’s just a dream for now. I don’t watch anything else on TV except when the Chargers have a game on TV here in New York which is rare.

And I don't currently stream anything except when Indy or IMSA are on Peacock. Different strokes.

The field is lucky Chase isn’t running. I’ll take Truex

Chase was very much less dominant on road courses in the gen 7 thus far, IIRC. No RC wins last year and the Glen was really the only race he dominated.

Ok. Get the Fox Sports app on your phone and I'll give you my credentials to watch it from the altar!

Oh I can log in I'll probably check the race during whatever bathroom breaks I need to make

Congratulations man! That's awesome! Here's to a big Toyota win for a wedding present!

I agree.

Was your date approved by the RF Board?

I ****** up and didn't run it by the board lololol

Your best man is responsible for making sure there's a connected tablet tucked in behind the throne.

If he starts the broadcast but can't finish, does he still get points?

Yes he has the MPD waiver

 

[StandOnIt]

Of course it rains

So there won't be a live broadcast of Cup pratice and Truck p&q today?

Rain tires, mud flaps and a wiper?

Cup practice will be on FS1 at 8pm with truck following. Only Xfinity is live today.

Cup practice is scheduled for 2:05 eastern, truck practice at 4:30 but it looks like it will only be shown in re-live after Xfinity.

David Letterman used to have a bit dropping things off a five-story tower.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Looks like Jordan was 6th fastest before mock Q runs started. Not bad, rookie

 

[StandOnIt]

What I saw was Jordan was 12th, ran a hot lap up to 6th and was hammered down when the rest of them ran their flyers to 10th. He looks promising.

 

[StandOnIt]

Tyler B+ Reddick over a half a second faster than the rest of the field.

Boris Said?!

 

[Efisher131]

Boris Said?!

I would’ve swapped him out with somebody like Robby Gordon or Marcos Ambrose. Ambrose was by far the fastest driver at the Glen for his whole career.

Tyler B+ Reddick over a half a second faster than the rest of the field.

A+ road course driver?

He was up over three tenths against anyone else in 5-lap average too.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Denny Hamlin wearing Interstate colors looks cursed.

 

[DIDIT]

Boris Said?!

Probably not...but I think an untimely caution costed Boris a NASCAR win.
One thing for sure, he is quite the personality

 

[Greg]

I know that the COTA is a world class facility and they are proud of the enhancements. But I have never adjusted or got use to that Texas Red-Grass, it just ain't right.

 

[Greg]

Boris Said?!

Dinger and Reddick!

Montoya missing

Scott Speed is over at GM helping their drivers develop on RCs.

Met him at Millbridge, he was there with Rajah and Carson when they did work in the mircos there.

He's a big reason why Tyler has improved so much.

 

[Pat]

Something is wrong with that boy!
