Cup Championship RACE thread --- Phoenix

[racingfan7]

I wish Harvick would go win the race with this format

 

[nickp]

Nice launch by Kyle Larson to begin Stage 3

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Once the 5 gets clear it’s over

 

[DIDIT]

Really struggling trying to keep interested in what appears to be a bit orchestrated.

 

[nickp]

That last Stage was the penultimate stage of the season

 

[34R7H130UND]

Once the 5 gets clear it’s over

Its not even a race lol

 

[Nitro Dude]

Katelyn better have a tall boy on ice because it is looking more and more like she is going to need it.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

That last Stage was the penultimate stage of the season

And the very first stage of the race was the antepenultimate. ROTFL

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Lol of ****** course he comes up on Chase and the damage helps him. This season summed up perfectly.

It really is. But Larson can do no wrong here

edit: that’s my whiny, self indulgent fan post of the day

 

[Kiante]

Top 2 are less than a tenth apart every lap.

All depends on who makes a mistake first.

 

[Mispeedway15]

Man the nerves are settling in. This is Edwards/Stewart stuff, within a second for so long now

 

[StandOnIt]

wouldn't be surprised if the the JGR's pit first

 

[10-4]

Really struggling trying to keep interested in what appears to be a bit orchestrated.

I said it on an earlier restart. Looked like Kurt Busch jumped out to a great start about to challenge the 5 and 9 for the lead and within 2 laps the 11 and 19 had already passed him like he was sitting still. Every year the championship 4 runs 1,2,3,4 in the final race. It really defies logic and doesn't trend with the more ordinary races throughout the season.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Wth happened to the 19? He’s fallen off a cliff

 

[lisa]

Hello all!!!! I just got home from church. I hope you all are good.

Gooooo Kurt!!!!!

 

[donthaveanickname]

Reminds me of when Harvick won with a giant dent in the roof at Vegas in 2018.

Really struggling trying to keep interested in what appears to be a bit orchestrated.

Yeah I dunno. This format is getting old to me. NASCAR and Goodyear could do a better job with their own stuff

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

I’m gonna need an old school Larson falling out of the seat moment here

Nope.

Adrenaline is providing the fuel now.

Like what happened to ol' chokin' Larson walling himself every race lol

Almirola has been pretty good at the shorter, flatter tracks.

Interesting how Smithfield signs on for a new season, his performance picks up.

Everytime.

Are you saying Smithfield should sign week to week?

 

[HoneyBadger]

Take the finale back to Homestead.

Burrito in 12th, Watermelon in 14th.

Be like Hemric's contract.

Get paid for top 10s or above, only.

 

[StandOnIt]

I thought they were in talks

 

[Kiante]

Take the finale back to Homestead.

Then bitch about the 550 package?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Chase really rooooooooolls in.

 

[nickp]

“Hamlin running for all 10,000 of his races today…”

 

[Charlie Spencer]

New leader #9

 

[Mispeedway15]

Best title since Stewart/Edwards

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

God, I love hearing Eddie D’Hondt saying “take it!”

 

[LJ7201]

Could watch these two battle all day

 

[AdoubleU24]

LFG

 

[donthaveanickname]

nope, I checked

Back in 2019 the 11 and 19 choked big time.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Could watch these two battle all day

Sorry, we just have another 80 laps.

 

[StandOnIt]

Then bitch about the 550 package?

-that would make it a win win for ol Andy

 

[Kiante]

Hamlin is quickly coming into the picture.
