It might be a 318 car

Possibly, it looks pretty barebones though which is why I assumed the 225.

 

[BobbyFord]

I knew a guy with a 340 Duster, it was a pretty fun car.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Jimmie lending Clint his golden horseshoe.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

God I hate this Liberty Mutual d-bag in his slant-six Duster.

I like the Duster. I loved the Slant 6 in my Valient. It was perfect for a beginner who routinely forgot maintenance.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

but when I said this before he even turned a lap, it was RF taboo.

Probably because we didn't want to believe it... or wanted to believe he would still run well based on his experience.

Now we have some performance to work with.

Hard to kill a slant 6.

 

[ToyYoda]

Hard to kill a slant 6.

Slow but bulletproof.

 

[DUN24]

Well damn that restart worked out well

 

[Switchback]

The 4 is awful on restarts today

 

[Switchback]

No pearn looking stout taking that stage from the outside lane.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Hard to kill a slant 6.

There were times it was apparently happy but when I'd finally check, it was down over two quarts.

 

[Clutch]

Kurt going backwards all day. So much for being a drivers track.

 

[Thegeneral23]

This is crazy now.. all about runs and who is behind you to push you.. nothing to do with the damn driver or car lol.. when will the driver and car come into play again? Will this next car bring that back? This is beyond ridiculous now.. soon as I thought that Kyle gets on radio and say same thing.. I know you guys can’t actually like this. To be honest now I don’t even watch the races like I use to I couldn’t move from chair while the race was on.. now it’s just on because I don’t even know what I’m watching anymore . I guess it’s a bunch of cars pushing each other really fast.

 

[BobbyFord]

I knew a guy in high school with a slant 6 car, I don’t remember what it was. He tossed a rod and blasted a hole in the side of the block. He pulled the pan and removed the toasted rod, I believe he removed the pushrods for that cylinder, too. Drove it on 5 cylinders...
Nice breather hole in the block.

Is he running 41st?

 

[FLRacingFan]

Stage racing GOAT Martin Truex Jr. I’m almost surprised he’s won *only* 40.

What? You have no idea what you are talking about. Quit listening to Kyle whine, he does that when he gets beat. Its all about driver.

Did he zip-tie a big pot under the hole?

To catch the coolant.

I recall hearing other stories about slant 5s

I knew I shouldn’t have said Kyle said the same thing because I knew u would say that smh.. so u really think this is all about a driver? Haha

So can you explain how clean air and slingshotting is the driver? And getting the right push

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Willing to bet Truex will be the leader once we come back from commercial

 

[donthaveanickname]

Weird to see a NOS energy car not driven by KDB or Riley Herbst.

Harvick drove by them, no push. bye

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Truex is running down Harvick slowly but surely.

 

[jaqua19]

No. It's only driver when Kyle wins. When Kyle gets passed, or beat...it's car. Lol

Auto parts boys found each other.

Harv is costing. The 19 and 4 look equal. In that case, give me driver #4 over driver #19

No he isn't. He got it down from 1, to .0.6. Harvick just stretched it back to his biggest lead. He's coasting.

Harv steady at 1.5

 

[Charlie Spencer]

60+ laps is a long way to go on tires.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Race is so lackluster that we have to focus on a lapper with fresh tires being able to keep up with the leader.

 

[Thegeneral23]

I’m not trying to argue with u guys I’m down with all that. It’s not about Kyle Busch. I’m talking about the sport in general . You guys make everything about Kyle Busch.. you guys really hate this dude geesh
