Cup RACE thread --- Loudon

Would be hilarious if DiBenedetto went out and won now.

I’d love it but that team just doesn’t have race winning speed, no matter who is in that car. I’d love for him to top 10 the rest of the season though.

@Dr_B_UNC if there was a rainbow over turn 1 they would have red flagged it amirite

Same guys who could pinpoint an extremely localized area of droplets on the Daytona road course

My question is why do these mistakes keep happening? It’s an embarrassment

So did anyone have this on their Bingo card ?

This will 100% get going. I'm there now and one pass of the air titans left the front stretch near 85% dry.

We're getting this one in boys.

Also, Kyle has every right to be mad, but him doing what he did with the pace car should be punishable.

Kyle runs up the white flag.

Mid 90s they ran the Winston in the rain ,first lap about half the field wrecked
Nascar allowed back up cars and restarted them back to the start
as if it never happened

 

[LARRY]

I wish the would put the names on screen when talking to drivers.
I don't know who most of them.

Yep. But no backup cars here.

Can't do that today because the lack of back up cars, but I wonder if NASCAR would of allowed the 18/9 to use their back ups

And that would be a no, NASCAR would not of allowed that.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

I like how the HMS cars made it but JGR cars didn’t.

Tire soaking confirmed.

 

[HoneyBadger]

“You change the rules mid stream”

They have many times.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Did Steve just compare Larson’s last lap flat tire to Gordon strike a piece of concrete off the track at Martinsville?

Lmao what a total idiot.

 

[jws926]

NASCAR is consistent at being inconstant

NASCAR bringing out the back up

 

[Barbara Charles]

.

 

[carolinabuff]

They're planning on going green at about 5:15

 

[Magicmiler]

Kyle could possibly watch the end of the race from home. That sucks...

 

[ChexOrWrex]

NASCAR bringing out the back up

I’m gonna theorize that this was Kyle’s way of for sure getting called to the hauler so that he can open up directly to someone who has to listen and can’t blow the drivers off.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

 

[Barbara Charles]

I don't usually root for Kyle Busch got screwed on that deal and he handled it with class.

Now, I gotta rewind the DVD and see if Samantha was out on the rain.

She certainly has the pontoons for wet weather.

Hol up.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

NASCAR #1 trending topic on Twitter.

Their embarrassment now has global attention.

 

[HoneyBadger]

So the competition caution for teams to check tire wear is out the window on the fly?

Probably an attempt to shorten the race time. They only have ~2.5 hours until darkness falls.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Do these chattering animals ever shut up?

Closer to 3.5 hours.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Closer to 3.5 hours.

Oh good.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Lmao what happened to drivers to their cars at 5:00 pm? It’s 5:05 ET and they’re still standing around doing nothing.

Probably having issues with the weeper in turn one.

That was in 2001, plus that was on lap 1 of an exhibition race, so it made more sense.

NASCAR let Kyle Busch repair his car under red after the infamous cable cam incident.

Several years prior, at Watkins Glen, Robby Gordon was forced out of the race when an NBC in car camera caught on fire. The following year, he gave NBC a bill during Countdown.

 

[KTMLew01]

Seems there has been an issue with the race track. Whaàaaaamblance not needed though.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

NASCAR made the lap 30 competition caution happen on lap 8 after wrecking the leaders out of sheer stupidity?

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Tower just told teams over the radio that the race has a chance to be shortened due to lightning in upcoming storms.

Maybe they should start the fuggin races at 1:00 pm.

 

[StandOnIt]

impossible

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Closer to 3.5 hours.

And they may shorten it anyway according to Larson's radio traffic.
