This thing is gonna end with an hour of the TV window to fill…barring shenanigans.

“McDowell couldn’t drive a wood screw.” -Chase Elliott

 

[Naitch]

Can someone tell Stenhouse that Chase is from the country of Georgia?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

C'mon, make the white!

 

[TexasRaceLady]

McD has driven a flawless race.

 

[BobbyFord]

No. Yellow. Flag.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

good on you McD! Hell of a job. Enjoy bowing out after 3 races. (I’m not bitter.)

 

[Blaze]

Needed a few more laps I think

 

[Charlie Spencer]

C'mon, make the white!

Made it!

 

[34R7H130UND]

So chase sat behind them lapped cars for like 20 laps only for them to get out of the way with 2 to go

 

[Naitch]

Does anyone have population numbers for Phoenix? Rick Allen might be asking for them soon.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

No way

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Unlikely headline - McDowell Dominates!

 

[Blaze]

Well. On to The Glenn..

 

[AdoubleU24]

Well that was less than the time that Suarez cost him to McDowell earlier so there you go

 

[REBS31]

Nice of Almirola to join the 34 team for the celebration

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

“I’m very sorry guys. That should have been yours.” 9 radio

 

[jws926]

Damn, he did it !

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

That’s so awesome for McDowell!

 

[antman12]

Flawless race by McDowell. Amazing.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Ticket punched.

Very deserving race winner. Nice job, FRM and McDowell.

 

[Spotter22]

He gone! What a performance by the 34!

 

[Naitch]

Well that was less than the time that Suarez cost him to McDowell earlier so there you go

You still have to make the pass. There's no guarantee Chase could've gotten by him.

 

[AdoubleU24]

You still have to make the pass. There's no guarantee Chase could've gotten by him.

He was faster the whole run. He's making the pass

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Amazing run for the 34. Congrats on the participation trophy.

 

[BobbyFord]

Awesome win for McDowell. Helluva run.

 

[jws926]

This race flew by, there is still an hour left in the broadcast window.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I just realized I never heard mention of Truex today. Did anyone hear his name?
I assume he was in the race. LOL

 

[FLRacingFan]

He was faster the whole run. He's making the pass

It was hard to pass all day and he had a lot less reason to use his tires up on the final stint than Chase did. It could’ve been a real battle, but it’s hard to say for certain any more than that.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

This race flew by, there is still an hour left in the broadcast window.

That's what happens when there are no cautions.

 

[TheJester]

Next 2 weeks gonna be chaos

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

DANGIT, I can’t hate. I want to (and am) bitter but… I love the little guy and kudos to McD. On to WG where Chase is overwhelming favorite.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

First caution free race since Talladega 2002

There was a yellow very early.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

#Cha2e lives on!!!!!!!

 

[Naitch]

I don't think anyone has ever regretted a ski trip more than Chase Elliott does right now.

 

[LibertyU24]

Congrats 34

 

[jws926]

Happy to see Horizon Hobby in VL, I buy model kits from them occasionally

 

[Spotter22]

Daytona and now Indy winner!!

He was faster the whole run. He's making the pass

No sir, 34 was on save and could go when he needed

 

[Brentford]

He was faster the whole run. He's making the pass

He had a hard enough time getting by the #42 though. I imagine it would have been tougher getting by McDowell.

 

[REBS31]

First caution free race since Talladega 2002

They had one on Lap 2
