[KodiakRusty89]

Looks like a beautiful day in the Irish Hills!

 

[TexasRaceLady]

At least they made through the first lap. LOL

 

[JBone88]

Caution for a trash bag lol

 

[ToyYoda]

Caution for a trash bag lol

It poses a Hefty threat to the drivers.

 

[R Clarence]

Rusty Wallace on the bag ‘n the guys that changed four.

That bag cost us a $22,000.00 tire bill!

 

[KodiakRusty89]

I hate to harp on the crowd but it looks especially depressing today. Michigan is such a great place to watch a race too!

Ha, see what you did there

Chase to crew during the yellow:

"Get your pencil ready to work some strategy, I don't see myself making any forward gains and passing many guys without some help."

Promising.

Yeah, I heard that.Then he passes two cars on the restart.

 

[Blaze]

I missed the start. Why the competition caution? Did it rain before the race?

 

[ToyYoda]

Yeah, it rained this morning.

 

[Kiante]

Yes.

 

[Efisher131]

Kyle in reverse

 

[AdoubleU24]

Yeah, I heard that.Then he passes two cars on the restart.

And then that on pit road. Back where he started now lol.

 

[JBone88]

Truex to the lead.

 

[Kiante]

42 looks like it did not like 2 tires.

 

[Efisher131]

Battle for the lead let's go in car on 4th place

 

[AdoubleU24]

Lap times are still among the best tho @Johali

 

[Efisher131]

Feels like a 48 kind of day. He went to the back and the 78 and 42 are the top 2. It's the same movie every time.

 

[JBone88]

^^ I was thinking the same thing lol

 

[ToyYoda]

Just noticed there are only 37 cars in the field, that's the fewest I can recall seeing in awhile.

 

[Kiante]

MTJ wins stage 1.

 

[ToyYoda]

Truex just got his 279th stage win of the season.

 

[JBone88]

Truex racking up the stage wins.

 

[lisa]

curses you Jimmie Johnson!!!!!

 

[ToyYoda]

Truex racking up the stage wins.

I believe that now gives him 19 playoff points.

 

[ReturnTrip]

I believe that now gives him 19 playoff points.

 

[racefan41]

41 crew just plain old sucks

 

[Kiante]

Larson fires off fast, but it looks like the Toyotas' are better over a longer run.

 

[Thegeneral23]

Truex cars are just stupid fast every damn week!! How does anybody else have any wins smh...

 

[jaqua19]

Truex cars are just stupid fast every damn week!! How does anybody else have any wins smh...

Because the cream rises to the top.

Truex has fast cars.

48 is junk today

 

[RowdyBusch]

Truex cars are just stupid fast every damn week!! How does anybody else have any wins smh...

My thoughts exactly through the 48s entire career.

 

[Kiante]

Jimmie has slid back to 19th.

 

[Thegeneral23]

My thoughts exactly through the 48s entire career.

Haha nobody has a chance today at end of race.. this isn't even fair anymore lol

 

[Taco]

Man this low down force really made better racing, as the fans slowly fade away.

 

[Kiante]

BUSCHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

I had to, sorry.
