Cup RACE thread --- Chicago Street Course

[Charlie Spencer]

I must be the only one who doesn't care about Chicago in the background, but I didn't care about racing inside a football stadium either.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Prawblems for the 99. And more problems for the 48

 

[donthaveanickname]

So are they going to lap 80?

One of the reporters just threw that out there…

That's when teams are expecting darkness, no shortened distance has been announced yet.

 

[StandOnIt]

Get ya some Larson

Yesterday before the Xfinity race. I was in tears.

Yeah, I missed all that. I was watching MITB and didn’t bring the race up on my second screen til just before the green

 

[LibertyU24]

Bell getting a wake-up call

 

[FLRacingFan]

Just pull him behind that wall.

I promise you that you didn't miss much. Bike handle in 1 hand, baconator in the other.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Good day for HMS overall. Did they provide Mark's engine yesterday?

 

[Blaze]

I might find it just because that sounds hilarious

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Well they’ve raced in the dark at Martinsville…I don’t know anymore

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Had plenty of time to pull him behind the wall

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

It was until the car wouldn't start.

It didn't seem like that was the issue- I thought he wasn't reversing because other cars were in the way.

But, it appears you are right and I was mistaken.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Chicago people are bad ass fans

Chicago Tough!

 

[Spotter22]

Somebody get the fire extinguisher out of that fools hands! Bowman is out but damn you just made a mess for no reason

 

[AwesomeBill18]

This is definitely turning into a darkness race. I do not really see it any other way.

 

[KTMLew01]

Good day for HMS overall. Did they provide Mark's engine yesterday?

Which one. Blew several from what I've seen.

 

[Brickyard1996]

Somebody get the fire extinguisher out of that fools hands! Bowman is out but damn you just made a mess for no reason

He was shootin that stuff into every crevice he could find on the car

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I wonder if those boats in the lake can see any of the action??

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Ending race at lap 75

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

 

[AdoubleU24]

They're shortening the race now? Bro

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I will say this generation of car is better suited to the barriers of a street course than previous cars.

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Honest statement: People from here don’t really eat deep dish. It’s a tourist thing.

I tried a deep dish pizza when I was in Chicago last year- and was disappointed.

Everyone else in the pizza joint was ordering jumbo slices of regular-looking pizza. And they seemed to be enjoying it.

I think next time I visit, I'm going to return to the same pizza place but order the regular-looking jumbo slices that everyone else was ordering.

 

[Mike Crayne]

Lap 75 ends it.

[AwesomeBill18]

Lol...wow NASCAR...adjusting the laps after teams have already pitted. Nuts

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

They're shortening the race now? Bro

Mercy killing

 

[Spotter22]

Kudos NASCAR!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Mercy killing

And we're already past halfway.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Lol...wow NASCAR...adjusting the laps after teams have already pitted. Nuts

You must be new here.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

9 staying out. Bold.

 

[Spotter22]

not

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Lol...wow NASCAR...adjusting the laps after teams have already pitted. Nuts

I'm sure the teams already knew the race wouldn't go the distance.

 

[Brentford]

That sucks for those front runners. It’s about to get crazy. I just ain’t sure those guys will be able to pass those 9 cars cleanly.

 

[AwesomeBill18]

9 staying out. Bold.

I like it

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Rick Allen, can you see this buddy??

 

[Mike Crayne]

I had my doubts about this race. But it has been a decent race. Complainers gota complain.

[FLRacingFan]

This is where the intensity picks up.
