Cup RACE thread --- Bristol

[JBone88]

18 stays out and wins the race. Penske cars all pit and lose.

Maybe someday these idiots will wake up. You don’t give up track position with that few laps left.

 

[Madman88]

Wellllllll sh!t.

Good race but it just did not go in the way of my rooting interest at all.

I don't want to hear any sh!t about Larson choking either. He fought back and got 3 laps back(passing Harvick from way behind) in a sub par car before the crashing started. An example of trying to do too much with too little.

hard to agree with you when the other team car finsihed 2nd and was running good all day

Kurt's interview.

He got himself another win worth counting on a Sunday, well done, 54 is an impressive count.

Did the other car get forced 3 laps down due to pit road errors? Can't compare the performances today.

 

[DIDIT]

Is that in Kyle's face supposed to be a beard?

Be kind, he really isn't mature enough to grow a real one.

 

[jws926]

lol love it, "I was going to wreck my lil brother to win "

and a run in with a wall

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Kurt is such a cool dude, don’t think he was joking about wrecking his brother ha ha. He’s so much more likable now than when he was at Roush

 

[DUN24]

and a run in with a wall

A tire got cut after a brush. He still got 3 laps back and was racing in 15th at the time of the lapper incident. Again, trying to do a little too much with too little.

Just tied Lee Petty and the next win ties Rusty Wallace. Pretty good for a guy who turns 34 next month.

Is that a picture from the race where he was injured?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Kids love it when the Candy Car wins

There are way to many fat kids.

No, I don't think he was either

 

[Hotrod]

All Hail !!!!!!!

Goodness , he is on a roll.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I miss watching drivers get out of the car in Victory Lane. Hate this front stretch crap

 

[Madman88]

No, I don't think he was either

THAT would have brought fans back to Bristol in the fall

 

[Fordracing7]

I need the 4 team to get their **** together because he doesnt smile after he if gives a win away like logano

 

[kyle18fan]

Wow, Brings home a wrecked up POS with old tires, puts it in first !!! Amazing stuff

 

[ToyYoda]

Is that a picture from the race where he was injured?

Must have been, that’s a 2015+ Camry and he was back in the 18 in Xfinity in 2016 IIRC.

 

[donthaveanickname]

I never doubted KDB driving abilities, I just don't like him

 

[JBone88]

Wish Kyle would run the Skittles car all the time. His best scheme by far.

 

[FearThe4]

13th.

I take it after how today went this feels like a win in a way.

 

[jws926]

Yeah, I have to give it to Kyle, he earned that one today, but Penske pitting handed him the win I feel, if Penske stayed out, I dont think Kyle would of won.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I really hope Kurt sticks around for 2020, CGR might even need him to at this point.

 

[ToyYoda]

I think losing his ride at Penske matured him a lot. He’s been a lot cooler since that happened.

 

[jws926]

I agree, its simple, and reminds me when Irvan drove the Skittles theme for the one year before they switched to M&M's

 

[ReturnTrip]

Kyle Busch is so good at restarts the cars behind him line up three-wide.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Newman and Johnson got a Top 10

 

[kyle18fan]

Yeah, I have to give it to Kyle, he earned that one today, but, I gotta say this Penske pitting handed him the win I feel, if Penske stayed out, I dont think Kyle would of won.

Underestimating Kyle Busch seldom works, his race should have been over on lap 3

 

[JBone88]

They need him badly. That 42 team is out to lunch. Kurt is carrying the banner at the moment.

 

[nascarwoman]

It's sort of "damned if you do, damned if you don't" --- either way, they were sitting ducks.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Right now, with Larson's frustration Level probably rising more and more, I think it's possible that Kurt stays with CGR and Chastain could take over the 42.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

That’s why I can’t figure out why everyone is ready to retire him at the end of the year dude can still go and he’s still doing it at a high level

 

[jws926]

I know I did, he drove a smart race and it paid off.......with the help of Team Penske ****ting all over their day.

No offense DUN24 - but Larson looks to me to be a guy like my fave - ( see pic) - a solid racer, probably better on dirt - and if he gets a few more wins he will be up there in the medium level Nascar dudes. He will probably end up with a better winning total than Rick Mast or Dick Trickle.

Considering those guys had zero Cup wins and Larson has 5, he’s already there.

 

[jws926]

Of course it is, I am sure the Penske teams thought everyone else would come, but Kyle put himself in contention to win with a torn up race car, and that is what counts.
