Cup RACE thread --- Bristol

[Madman88]

whomever said the cars were all tight earlier appears to have been right. the front ends bobble but the backends don't. isnt it usually the other way around on a short track?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

37 car in the top 5! 9 car up to 8th!

#95 running 11th!

 

[Mr. E]

Seriously, back when I was there in 97 and 99 I think there were more people on Friday for practice and qualifying then there is today for the race.

 

[Spotter22]

This race doesnt lack for excitement or drama

 

[DIDIT]

Wait, what happened to Danica?

Remember when Bowyer stayed out and voluntarily chose the inside lane? lol.

Also, if KB dumped a backmarker to get the lucky dog and power steering back the uproar would be tremendous.

Agreed. Not a move I’m proud of, but I honestly missed replay. I assume it was blatant? (Not trying to defend him at all)

 

[SlicedBread22]

That there is some wasted playoff points. Logano does not even need them. <SARCASM>

That's true.. he didnt get very many last season and still won the championship

Yea, we saw the trucks race in 02 or 03 on a Thursday night with more fans.

Not sure - but I miss her cute commercials

 

[donthaveanickname]

I think this package might even work at the bigger tracks if they had 750 hp there as well.

Define 'we', because I'm not going to. Need my PayPal address?

Wrong place --- irrelevant.

Wrong place --- irrelevant.

But I got to see it first!

 

[ReturnTrip]

Pulled a piece of tape outside the box...someone execute that man for murder.

Today's race reminds me of Bristol of old if you will, like pre configuration, I am liking this .

 

[DIDIT]

This is one heck of a race so far.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Chase downloaded more RAM.

Last time I went it was still asphalt and no stands in turns, but still more people there. I went to 1991 night race. Bill Elliott was on pole in Coors Light car, won by Alan Kulwicki. 13 year old me had a blast.

PS about 85% @220F

 

[nascarwoman]

Keep in mind there is an "attendance" thread. This thread is about the race on the track.

 

[DIDIT]

Come on Bubba, get that lap back. RPM needs the money.

 

[DewChaser988]

Wow, guess Chase's car is still fine, even if he doesn't win today, I'll gladly take a top 5

 

[SlicedBread22]

Brad 2
Kyle 2
Denny 2
Joey 1

Looks like its Joey's turn to me

 

[Mr. E]

Wait, what happened to Danica?

Probably chilling at her winery in Napa Valley. I know that's where I would be if I was her.

Sorry.

Oops - it was a commercial break - I will try to control myself in the future.

He’s not out of it if it’s not a long run at end. He’s making time now but says he burns RF off with the way he has to drive it.

Never mind, just walled it

 

[Ventisca]

I know what they should do at the track with all this extra space in the stands --

Put a big comfortable LazyBoy seating recliner with a snack table (within reach to one side), and room to jump up and cheer in front. All out in the elements (not in a sky-box) amongst NASCAR people and the penetrating waves of sound from full power NASCAR engines!

They got space in the stands -- probably worth 3 seats.

I'd be having the time of my life watching the racing today!

 

[DUN24]

Elliott tagged the wall with both fenders, no rub.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Chase just said he hit wall on radio. Eddie says no rubs.

 

[Mispeedway15]

Pretty sure that’s a Mercedes AMG that Penske uses and not a Ford Mustang. Dominating

 

[jws926]

Nice to see Kurt having a great run today.

Uh, oh....

Brad don't wait for turns

 

[nascarwoman]

This is one of the better races I've seen at Bristol. I'm not sure what is going to happen to what driver.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

If I was a wheel on that ugly #20, I'd want off too.

 

[Mispeedway15]

This is one hell of a race

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Golly I really thought Jones was going to have a good day if not be a contender for the win.

 

[DIDIT]

Uh, oh....

I told you
