Everything’s Great??

 

[StandOnIt]

He will find a way to blame it on his team

 

[ChexOrWrex]

#18 team hoping for a Chase Elliott caution.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Ouch!

 

[jaqua19]

Come on Blaney.

Larson faster than his teammates again.

This is definitely a strange race. Don't remember seeing so many trying to knock the wall down.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Kligerman is running Top 20 in the Gaunt car. They haven't been able to crack the Top 30 most of the time.

 

[Kiante]

Wind is consistent, but the gusts of wind is increasing in speed.

This is going to be a tricky race with all of that.

MTJ has not had a round of 8 to remember.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

If NASCAR was consistent they would have thrown the yellow for Kyle riding the wall two turns in a row. They threw for less the last time he got into the wall.

Team orders at HMS lol Byron is gonna give you the lead to give the 9 the stage win.

It helps for so many other cars to get out of his way.

 

[Kiante]

Logano is going to have to come back down pit road.

No way the tire changer got all of those lugs tightened.

+ they obviously had an uncontrolled tire.

Let’s see.

 

[Magicmiler]

It looks like only 3 lug nuts were tightened on the 22

Yeah doesn’t seem like that’s the case.

 

[JJ_14]

Is there any Twitch streams of the race? I can't find any right now.

Let’s see.

At what point does NASCAR consider a tire to be uncontrolled? I remember that rule was changed last year.

 

[jaqua19]

Goodyear has annihilated Blaney here today.

Luckily he's a mile above the cut line.

When it's not a playoff team.

He can thank Kyle for that.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

If things were to finish how they are now, I think Blaney is in the most dangerous points position. Truex and Logano could easily take the W at Martinsville and I’m not sure Blaney runs well enough there to out-point Elliott or Hamlin to stay in the top 4.

 

[racingfan7]

I’m not trying to harp on the 550 package but the top 4 have the same motors……… frustrating that O’Donnell and Phelps and Kennedy like what they’re seeing.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Best intermediate race for the 23 so far.

No that was last week when he protected Larson's rear end all day

 

[jaqua19]

Cliff "what do you need there.. if anything"

Larson: "I feel like.. I was just giving it up there. Really I should have just lead the whole thing".

Later:

"I don't think we're bad at all, just gave up the lead. How many to the good would the 9 be?"

Larson is legit sandbagging for Chase.

Not sure. NASCAR calls uncontrolled tires like how the NFL calls catches.

Come again.

NBC Theme Of the Day: “That wind is really whipping there today”

 

[StandOnIt]

Truex or Logano aren't going to start very close to the front at Martinsville unless somehow they find some speed here at Kansas.

6 of the first 7 have the same motors. It's crazy.

Lol. If that's how you interpret that, ok.

Chase gave him a win at Bristol, so.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I do know one thing, with so many playoff drivers having prawblems today, Martinsville next week is going to be bonkers

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Looks like Byron got the “5 car” today instead of Chosen One. He’s got em covered by far

 

[aunty dive]

Are we halfway there yet?

Yeah, I'm more impressed by this than plate races.

Fr, who tf hasn’t had a coca cola before.

Yea I dunno. So much to unpack for that commercial. Makes me almost miss Grandpa

It’s the Coke Zero not a regular Coke
