Cup RACE thread --- Bristol, Rd. 2

[BradBlaney]

Could we go one week where the 4 car is just average?

Doesn't even have a great car and is still in contention for the lead

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Is that the 78 close to being a lap down?

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Guys need to be more willing to root the lap traffic out of the way. Too nice at times....

 

[racefan41]

Looks like the 78 is average.

 

[machinistman3]

Actually, faster

no bumper cover required for KY what a SHOCK !!!

A bump here isn’t the worst thing, use that chrome horn!

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Lapped traffic unleashing havoc early

 

[JBone88]

78 got damaged in the wreck with the GOAT. Not that you’d know that cause NBC didn’t talk about any one else effected by it.

 

[DewChaser988]

Wonder what I am gonna do next Sunday, without NASCAR....

And down.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Prawblems for Crashouse!

Maybe too early for that - unless a car is breathing down your neck.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Stenhouse, WTF?

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Wonder what I am gonna do next Sunday, without NASCAR....

IndyCar at Gateway Saturday night

What color rock have you been living under

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Rick got too carried away there lmao so many thousandths of a second for the poor guy

 

[BradBlaney]

There is something definitely up with that 4 car

 

[Michfan]

If you don't like this, don't even watch

Record tomorrow's IMSA race.

 

[Racer1930]

Bowyer is looking good...must have finally sobered up

 

[racefan41]

I thought there was time for the 17 to pull up on the track in front of the 12

 

[KodiakRusty89]

I'm expecting more rubbing as the race goes on. Great racing, I can't believe the patience some of these guys are showing. The lap traffic has not yielded....

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Maybe too early for that - unless a car is breathing down your neck.

Maybe....but I would think if you’re going to lose a few positions due to a lapped car, it’d be worth at least exploring the thought

Xfinity is at Road America

 

[Thegeneral23]

What happened in the beginning guys?? I know Kyle wrecked what happened though? I missed it

 

[JBone88]

They changed the paint scheme. NASCAR was supposedly policing altered schemes with black around the rear wheels and bumper. The OSS special.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Xfinity is at Road America

Bill Elliott’s return!

 

[CodeMan125]

Xfinity is at Road America

The cup Series should race there too damn it

 

[4tires17gals]

rain coming 8:15

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

He lost it coming off 4. If it makes you feel any better he is the fastest car out there

 

[BradBlaney]

Harvick didn't like the adjustments? Lmao

 

[Charlie Spencer]

What happened in the beginning guys?? I know Kyle wrecked what happened though? I missed it

Kyle got loose on the apron, spun, and caught two cars in his left side. Hilarity ensued.

 

[krucam]

Sux to see the empty seats. Jeez I used to have to fight for August Bristol tix. Finally in 2008 got into season tix. Always sold Spring race tix at face. Living now in TX and this still one of my must see races. Alas..

 

[jws926]

What happened in the beginning guys?? I know Kyle wrecked what happened though? I missed it

He lost it coming out of the turn and that created a parking lot

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Imagine if the stage ended but it stayed green. Such good racing halted without reason.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Whatever they’re doing I really can’t believe that at this point so far in the season, no one else has figured out what they are doing. Especially the Chevy guys.

But.....it creates drama!

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Definitely a pretty solid line of rain/storms moving in from the west/northwest. Looks like a certain red flag in the not too distant future...

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Ditch the Roval, race at a real Road course. An October playoff race under a fall midwestern sky at that place, sign me up!

The common denominator in the #4 car’s success since it’s premier at SHR has been Childers and Harvick.
