If Chase has major shoulder issues....paging Hendrick Motorsports Relief Driver Jeff Gordon!

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

At least HMS (and the Chevies) have shown a pulse I guess... struggling to find a positive...

 

[be9ak7ts16]

45 to go time to watch the race.

I believe he was trying to get down when the tire blew. Kinda tough to turn hard left at 180.

Then why was he on the radio asking how it looked.Smoke was pouring off it.

Only word I heard was from Twitter.

Chase Elliott said his shoulder is “all good”

He's a driver, that's just what they say.

Nah, only a Elliott can substitute for an Elliott

"I'm ok now." - @chaseelliott tells our @prnbrett. Glad to hear he is OK.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Kyle into the grass.
Truex into the lead.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Playoff implications for KDB!!

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Nice of Kyle to take a dive and help Truex for once.

ROTFL

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Bouncy steering wheels on a race car is not a good thing

 

[Greg]

Pathetic caution.

 

[jws926]

Incoming Kyle Busch Goodyear rant

 

[Pat]

Not many of the 16 left.

Never thought Vegas would be the wild card race

Never thought Vegas would be the wild card race

Isn't that the truth. Crazy how the top contenders are having problems.

I know right? Charlotte and Dega are probably gonna be even wilder

 

[jws926]

This is not how I thought the race would be playing out.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Chase can make up eight points in two races.

Is it only 8?

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

H

Never thought Vegas would be the wild card race

and you thought the Roval was going to be insane before today!...

Chase Elliott complained about his shoulder after his accident at Las Vegas. He said it popped but he doesn’t expect to need any additional treatment. Elliott: “I’m OK now. ... It hurt really bad when it happened and I got to messing with it and it popped again. It’s better now.”

 

[Hotrod]

Hmmmm, Kyle Busch scratch an itch? Looked like a lazy spin. I hear he is not a Lagano fan.

 

[ToyYoda]

Get Elliott Sadler on line 2!

 

[FLRacingFan]

Is it only 8?

It changes slightly but I've generally seen it in the 8-10 range since the wreck. It's showing 9 behind Hamlin in 12th right now.

 

[jws926]

Hehe, I see what you did you there.

But I bet he's going to be SORE starting tomorrow, and really bad on Tuesday.

Because race is running long and into start of IndyCar race, there won't be an interview of the winner at the finish line as NBC typically does. #nascar

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

JJ is going to end up with a top 5. This is such a JJ race

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

If/when Chase is out, I’m pulling for the 78 as a final middle finger to JGR.

 

[jws926]

The big question, does that last remaining big 3 driver make it to the end without have having problems ?

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Damn, what a restart!

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Larson has gigantic grapefruits for balls.

 

[jws926]

Damn, what a restart!

What she said.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

This is insane. This is still this year’s aero package right???

 

[TexasRaceLady]

This is getting intense up front.

 

[jws926]

This is some great racing for the lead.

 

[FLRacingFan]

What are the chances Larson doesn't wall it though?

 

[Mispeedway15]

Kyle!

 

[jws926]

I am sure MTJ is going to be disappointed that he didnt win at his home track.

 

[be9ak7ts16]

I’m liking this stuff right now.
