Cup RACE thread --- Indy

[Jorge De Guzman]

As you were saying?

 

[jws926]

Another hard hit, glad to see he is ok.

 

[StandOnIt]

Wow Bowman's car turned right

 

[Joker]

This is exactly what Matt Kenseth needed. I think he'll be a factor.

Oh yeah gimme that crow yum mmmm.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

These are some 2014 type of blowouts going on.

Pretty crazy to see.

Yea is this the teams fault or Goodyear?

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Haven't we figured out that taking two tires is a bad thing today?

And, it didn't even work out for Bowman. He went a lap down anyway. Pitting there was a mistake.

Taking two tires is a bad call with so many old tires blowing today.

Yep. Taking two tires was a mistake. Can't say I'm surprised to see Bowman's tire blow.

 

[JJ_14]

Thank God for these safer barriers - some vicious hits this afternoon.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Dare I hope?

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

That’s a hard hit for Alex whew.

 

[Joker]

Lol wtf did they all just give up?

 

[BobbyFord]

Abrasive track. I like seeing tire fall-off.

 

[Magnethead]

ugh this feels like tiregate, just not as bad.

 

[nickp]

1 hour to sunset in Indy

Lack of practice is certainly not helping.

I think a bit of both, its not all one sides fault. Just these increased corner speeds are putting these tires on life-support.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I already had enough of the Clint dancing commercial. I miss Grandpa

 

[JJ_14]

Matt Kenseth is winning this race.

 

[Dorothy McGee]

ugh this feels like tiregate, just not as bad.

Goodyear's got some 'splainin to do...

 

[DewChaser988]

Glad Bowman and Jones are okay.. Those were absolutely brutal hits. I fear though that if those kinds of hits continue to happen, we will lose a driver

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Lack of practice is certainly not helping.

Not trying to place blame trying to educate myself. Is this different than 2014 when they had to pit almost every 20 laps

 

[Pat]

Matt Kenseth is winning this race.

I wish. Looks more like the 18 to me. Nevermind. I thought he was behind Kenseth

 

[Kiante]

Zero ride height rules, too.

Corner speeds were nothing like this though.

 

[Joker]

Matt Kenseth is winning this race.

He just took tires bruh...

 

[FLRacingFan]

Kenseth restarting 4th? Hmmmm

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Chip likes winners

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Roger’s brother Rick Penske says hello

 

[JJ_14]

Cole Custer in P6. Will he finally breakthrough with a decent finish?

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

I already had enough of the Clint dancing commercial. I miss Grandpa

Watch this next commercial break

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Stop showing North Wilkesboro NBC, It’s making me sad.

 

[BobbyFord]

Rutledge needs a wardrobe manager.
...and a muzzle.

 

[aunty dive]

I’d like to see a pyrometer pointed at the track surface.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Watch this next commercial break

Why thank you ha ha ha. I legit just laughed

 

[jws926]

Wait, North WB had a lift? that is cool, I never knew that.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I'd swear I saw Matt pit and take four.

 

[harkin]

Olympus...Serengeti...??

 

[Hotrod]

I have lost count. Thanks a pantload Goodyear.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

For their VL. Which was over infield restrooms I believe

 

[BobbyFord]

Go Denny...

 

[donthaveanickname]

I'd swear I saw Matt pit and take four.

Looks like he pitted right before the caution came out.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

NBC is loving The BIG 2 of Harvick and Hamlin

 

[machinistman3]

If you know tires will be an issue why chance it?Pretty obvious that tires can be a problem.
