We got a badass over here!

Holy *&%! he's in 2nd now. Must have grown his aerodynamic sideburns for this race.

[Charlie Spencer]

Way too early, people.

Way too early, people.

I'd just like to see biffle win. Or Larson. Or Blaney. Or stenhouse. Or allmendinger. Or or or....

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Menard somehow picked up about 20 spots since the restart.

This is Daytona ... a restrictor plate track. Why are you surprised?

Not surprised he's up front (anyone can do it here). But he was around 30th at the restart and got to 2nd in 10 laps...passing seems fairly difficult for most drivers so far. I'd expect Earnhardt to do that but definitely not Menard.

 

[blanston]

Reckon we'll get to see a race tonight?

 

[RacerrecaR]

Commercial for 3 minutes....racing for 30 seconds...commercial for 3 minutes.

 

[24Fan]

...anybody else miss Darrel, Mike, and Jeff?

I like Rick, but dude def gives off that truck series vibe.

I don't mind the broadcast, just wish there was more of it. Too many commercials!

 

[fordfan]

anybody here play draftkings nascar?

This is terrible coverage, sorry you say. So much happening but I haven't seen hardly any of it.

Just a non-confusing finish will make me happy.

 

[blanston]

Just a non-confusing finish will make me happy.

Yeah, me too. Or Carl. Or Matt. Or....

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Who was asking about Nationwide / Junior promos? Apparently they weren't carried over.

 

[DanicaFreak]

listened some to the 10s radio....they call drivers driving over their heads squirrels...

That was me, thank goodness.

 

[ToyYoda]

NBC paid $4.4 billion to broadcast NASCAR. I think they're trying to make it all back tonight.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Good clean race so far. Nice to see green flag stops...

 

[Charlie Spencer]

If you could see stomach cramps, they'd look like the #24 paint scheme.

 

[jws926]

That was a good amount of smoke coming from the 13, tire rub maybe

 

[Bob]

Danica drove through more than 3 pits.

 

[Clutch]

I wonder who Danica will blame that on?

 

[DanicaFreak]

f me

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Somebody pass DF a box of tissues

 

[*WEAVER*]

Danica penalized for driving through 42 pit stalls.

If Joey doesnt knock that darting and over use of blocking off, he is gonna start the big one

 

[Charlie Spencer]

He pulled that crap last night and it cost him the race.

 

[Kiante]

Joey gives no ****s.

Chop blocking like a mofo.lol

 

[jws926]

He pulled that crap last night and it cost him the race.

Yeah, but least then, it was very late in the race , its way too early for that **** now.

Or, too early for that over aggressiveness

.@DaleJr says the car feels like it has a loose tie-rod #NASCAR

 

[Brent]

They're making this look easy. Also, Johnson has a good car tonight. Every time he goes backwards, he seems to get back up front within a few laps.

 

[DanicaFreak]

shes not down a lap!

 

[Mr. E]

I wonder who Danica will blame that on?

She blamed herself and apologized to the team for it.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Halfway.

 

[Kiante]

No lie, I'm waiting on a wreck to obliterate my fantasy team.lol

 

[jws926]

Kyle got a case of the rear wigglies end there for a moment

 

[Clutch]

No lie, I'm waiting on a wreck to obliterate my fantasy team.lol
