Cup RACE thread --- Nashville

So you don't use the time to work off your court ordered community service?

YES! I help take the garbage to the chute and wipe down the counter tops, refill the beer and the wine coolers and give them warnings on what to do and not to do asa spotter. I get extra credit for that

 

[Mike Crayne]

Wow! The replay is just as boring as it was live!

 

[Spotter22]

Man, I feel like they’ve had rough luck this year with weather. Seems like once a month a race is interrupted with precipitation . Today is fine by me, just got home and if it’s Sunday Night NASCAR I’ll be able to watch the rest

Radar shows its gone, we def will get the full race in

 

[Spotter22]

Great, we may go before 7!

I've tried to stay in the suite and spot from their, but Rodney always tracked me down and made me come back

Ok,name a driver that is driving for one of the small teams that has impressed you and if their performance is worthy of them replacing someone on a bigger team. I'll start. I think Carson Hocevar is a star in the making and I would seriously consider him replacing Bowman in the 48

I agree with Hocevar but I am not ready to give up on Bowman yet.

I would replace eithe Joe Hunter or Dillon.

 

[StandOnIt]

Hocevar needs to be on a scrappier team than Hendrick. One of the up and coming teams. Like maybe a teamate to Haley. I think Hosevar can help build a team.

 

[Spotter22]

Im thinking more of an upgrade then a lateral move to a smaller team. I think he has the right amount of aggression to win and win now.

I assume a plam is already in pkace to replace Burton on the Woods Brothers car

I would like to Cindric replaced with Hocevar.
If Chevy wants to keep Hocevar they will need to find a great spot for him (like the 48).
Toyota or Ford will if they dont.

I understand, Bowman is a good shoe but Carson just seems to have that edge and if you put him in with the right people I think he can get it done

I agree Hocevar has done very well. Surprised me frankly after his pre Cup racing appeared to be overly aggressive, but he’s added technique and patience to his repertoire.

Hocevar reminds me of Ross Chastain about 5-6 years ago. He’s gonna get every bit of the equipment’s capability out of it.

 

[Efisher131]

What a ridiculous penalty as if the deluge of rain and over an hour of rain delay didn’t cool the car

 

[Greg]

I agree. I think has the potential to be one of the greats and I would love to see it happen in a Chevy.

Cars rolling under yellow, for those watching other things.

I think he and RCR would be good for each other.

I don’t know if RCR is good for anyone right now.

 

[StandOnIt]

Burton is obsessed with the lanes today.

 

[Mike Crayne]

I dont think Rodden was a good choice.

 

[Spotter22]

Absolutely insane the amount of chatter to the driver from TJ, it's totally unnecessary and distracting. If Brad wants that ok but 90% is useless

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Our Joey, well, ... bless his heart, he tries.

Nascar has to lectrocute them to maintain order. If they don't someone will fabricate a HVAC Car Cooling Hood Deluxe on sight during the next rain delay.

Telling him how to drive in every corner, and critiquing him at the same time. The Trey Poole to Chase Elliott comms earlier sounded great but TJ would be distracting to me if I was driving.

 

[Greg]

I think the one positive would be having Kyle Busch and Hocevar on the same team with idea that a strong roster of drivers would attract better engineers, techs, crews etc.

I don’t think Kyle will be there next year. I won't be surprised if he's gone before then somehow. Hell, he's battling with RWR cars.

Who here thinks peach-flavored beer is a good idea?

 

[Daytripper]

I guess Olympic time trials are more important than a cup race!

Guess it's better than cutting away to a prerecorded bowling tournament

Could be. Do you know if Kyle and Hamlin get along vety well?

Not a rhetorical question. Kyle B is Kyle B and as an outsider I wonder if people are lining up to work with or avoid him (or maybe they are neutral)

If you define 'more important' as 'makes more money', then yes.
