Ready to go racing.

I was ready 5 minutes after the last one finished.

This is my favorite track.

This is my favorite track.

Second best 1.5er after Homestead, I'd say.

Been to Atlanta several times. A good friend lives close enough to hear the cars. Used to throw parties that would last all weekend. Making the race was sometimes a struggle. LOL

I’m probably a tiny bit bias since it’s my home track lol. Glad to see others do like it.

Pretty warm day here in the ATL - hope every car's air conditioners are working

 

[Joker]

Wtf?? Should have done this half an hour ago. Going green 40 minutes past start is absurd.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Probably trying to maximize the number of people who see it.

Go 14 4!

 

[donthaveanickname]

The 4 and the 14 are both incredibly ugly.

Moments like the pre race ceremony make me proud of how far NASCAR has come from the days of Wendell Scott getting a win taken away due to his race..

 

[racer8]

What happened to Kurt Busch?

Was just thinking about this. Great post

 

[Racer1930]

Looks like the "usual suspects" have the fast cars early - but this is a long race.

 

[carolinabuff]

Failed inspection 3 times.

Not only started at the rear but also had to do a drive-thru

You mean NASCAR isn't a bunch of dumb racist rednecks driving in a circle? Could've fooled all my friends.

 

[harkin]

What would be the problem with moving the red-white stripe a few feet lower?

I weep for your friends.

I think it helps the drivers tell where the banking flattens out.

 

[jws926]

Alright, gonna get back on the lead lap

 

[Spotter22]

Love this. No notes for a partly cloudy Atlanta race in June!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Yep, its gonna be a long day

Will Kurt stay out at the comp. caution?

Never mind; Lucky Dawg.

 

[jws926]

No way, need them mr feel goods.
