Cup RACE thread --- Darlington

[jaqua19]

Larson wins this race if not for the speeding penalty.

Should have about 4 wins this year already.

Buescher had a hell of a run today

Congratulations to MJT I guess.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Best car and driver won without interference from NASCAR.

 

[BobbyFord]

Best car kicked ass today

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

MTJ took 'em to the wood shed today.

 

[Blaze]

Inb4 car fails post race.

[FLRacingFan]

A Cup race befitting of throwback weekend.

 

[jws926]

Damn, that was a dominant performance from MTJ and the 19 team.

 

[racer8]

Awesome

 

[donthaveanickname]

Truex is one helluva wheelman.

 

[StandOnIt]

[jaqua19]

Great work by the 19 team there.

MTJ feeling himself

 

[aunty dive]

Didn’t we decide Truex was worthless with no Pearn?

Freaking awesome

 

[Switchback]

I agree with Gordon, truex doesn't get enough credit. This was a driver's race today. I guess pearn wasn't magically driving the car from the pit box.

“Throwback”

lmao ok MTJ

 

[jaqua19]

Yup. In these "easiest to drive cars" it just doesn't do it for me, even with this bandaid 700hp package. It doesn't change the mechanic and aero grip advantages teams have.

He doesn't do this in a gen 4 or COT car imo.

But, you got what ya got, did his job, he's grown a lot on me, and closed out a good one.

Still won't give it to him though

That's fine.

The racing was good from start to finish. Everything past 2nd was good and it seems like the fans at the track enjoyed it.

 

[Blaze]

Dont you know that the good ol days was when drivers won by like 13 laps?

 

[AdoubleU24]

Impressive by Truex there at the end. Fully expected him to wall it. He deserved every bit of that W.

what was so great about it? Of course I call passing = competition

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I really want a Larson HendrickCars.com hat

Past second was good? third was parading around over 6 second back lol

MTJ beat God’s gift to nascar and the championship favorite himself!

I have empathy or even sympathy for drivers who had dumb things happen out of their control. Larson is his own worst enemy and makes the blunders that cost him himself the race 80+ percent of the time. Denny 2.0

 

[BobbyFord]

Larson is the best raw talent at HMS.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Jeff should have worn one of his 90’s DuPont firesuits in the booth today

 

[BobbyFord]

what was so great about it?

Everything.
Drivers actually had to lift and/or feather the throttle in the corners.

Without a doubt. It must be because he's so used to short races.

We underestimate how difficult it is to run a flawless race for 3.5 hours.

Most of these guys can do it, sans Larson lol

Byron 3rd in points. Most top 10s in the entire field.

Harvick for being so off still has 9 top 10s.
