Cup RACE thread -- Michigan, Rd. 2

[StandOnIt]

See, I love these shots , but that 360 camera needs to be a bit higher up to look out the back window, so in some way, I am sort kind of maybe agreeing with you.

the Pintys series in car stuff puts this junk to shame

 

[Kiante]

What the everloving **** was the point of that onboard. A bigass Ford decal and then pan back to the inside of the rear where you can't see a damn thing. NBC has the most useless onboards.

FORD

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Any reason to short pit?

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Honda power sports sponsor? We see you

 

[jws926]

The Buschhhhhh /Mobil split sponsor for Harv, I am pretty sure you don't want to use Buschhhhh beer the next time you do an oil change, and I suppose you dont want to chug a bottle of Mobil One

 

[FLRacingFan]

Oh sweet, can't wait for these dumbass stages to penalize someone who runs out of fuel with two to go.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Remember when Brad Keselowski was a championship caliber driver in this series? What happened there?

He still is Penske has not been good in general this year outside of plate tracks. They have low-key struggled, too.

 

[StandOnIt]

that was brilliant Burton. SMH

And there is the adversity

Logano and Blaney better.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

78 out of fuel. Damn.

 

[BobbyFord]

Oh sweet, can't wait for these dumbass stages to penalize someone who runs out of fuel with two to go.

They need to add more stages so nobody ever runs out of fuel again.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

#19 smart, #78 dumb.

 

[Blaze]

Super Adversity!!!

 

[ChexOrWrex]

#78 outta fuel

 

[ReturnTrip]

Zero consequence racing, Martin can run it out of gas two races in a row and not worry about points.

 

[Efisher131]

Good job Truex, you're done

 

[DUN24]

He ran out coming out of two with two to go and Rick says, “why not just try and make it if the pits are already closed?”

I figured it out guys. The booth dumbs down the information for Rick Allen, not the audience.

 

[Kiante]

MuH naMe Is CoLe PEarN and I aRe SmArT.

 

[FLRacingFan]

A very adverse Game 7 moment with very important playoff implications for the #78 team!

 

[BobbyFord]

Good job Truex, you're done

Done? He’s locked in.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

**** the race, Big Cat making a run at the PGA. See you guys later

 

[Conwayite]

That totally sucks for the 78!!

 

[donthaveanickname]

That was the worst thing that could happen for MTJ.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Did Rick just say “with pit road closed why would he come down, thats a penalty”


You cannot be serious

 

[StandOnIt]

Zero consequence racing, Martin can run it out of gas two races in a row and not worry about points.

more than that if ya get right down to it. No way he is going to win that lame duck "regular season winner" trophy.

 

[BobbyFord]

**** the race, Big Cat making a run at the PGA. See you guys later

Uh.......what’s the PGA? Can it be cured with OTC ointment?

 

[Efisher131]

Done? He’s locked in.

He's locked into the playoffs and the biiiiiiig 3!!!!

But he's done contending today.

 

[machinistman3]

Rolled the dice and lost.

 

[JBone88]

No clue what the 78 team was trying to accomplish with that strategy. Just threw away the race for no apparent reason.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Oh sweet, can't wait for these dumbass stages to penalize someone who runs out of fuel with two to go.

Lmaaoooooo nailed it

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Uh.......what’s the PGA? Can it be cured with OTC ointment?

Golf. Guys hitting balls with sticks and then swearing.

 

[jws926]

I think I should go get checked, I dont think I want PGA, sounds bad

Speed isn’t there. Doesn’t help when you willingly pass on chances to win in order to protect the owners title.

Yeah maybe the emergency crew can refuel the car for him once he stops on the backstretch and he'll be all good.

Genius.

 

[gnomesayin]

I know that it's easy to second guess now, and Cole Pearn is generally a genius. But some of these teams are stepping over dollars to pick up dimes by chasing stage and playoff points in a way that can cost them at the end of the race.

Or maybe the #78 is just bored and creating adversity.

 

[BobbyFord]

He's locked into the playoffs and the biiiiiiig 3!!!!

But he's done contending today.

He doesn’t care about today.
That’s what’s wrong with this stage, playoff BS.

Ask your doctor.
