Cup RACE thread --- Open and All-Star

[Jorge De Guzman]

Wilkesboro has my favorite VL in the sport, Indianapolis too.

 

[Kiante]

I'll say this much, it's better than Kyle being body slammed again.

 

[Bretzky]

Kudos to Ricky to doing something to Kyle that everyone has wanted to do. #47 for life.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Were those shorts, or oversized boxers?

Looked like swimsuit shorts lmao

 

[aunty dive]

I also don’t really get not mandating the use of both tires - kinda defeats the purpose of trying to create speed differentials.

I was looking forward to that.

Can’t believe they went that route.

Kyle Larson, the best driver in the world, activated God mode today.

He just went and drove Indycars this week and came back and forgot they can’t pass here.

Over/ under on how many shots and beers Ricky had while watching the rest of the race in his motorhome? Set at 6

Dude accosted Kyle Busch in some Jams.

 

[BobbyFord]

Next race is gonna be good with the 8/47 feud.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Ricky just chilling there waiting lmao

 

[Kiante]

 

[Brentford]

"Ricky, I don't care about Charlotte. Give us some drama! Tell us about Kyle!"

The FS1 technical director did a wonderful job... of cutting away from exciting action, and at times, ignoring it.

I wonder if they're going to show a replay of Buescher passing Larson.

 

[StandOnIt]

Some clown on the 47 team went to fighting with Kyle after they were separated. I bet his ass is grass.

 

[Speedbowl14]

That clock from Ricky was giving the Martinsville clock a run for its money...

 

[Michfan]

Kyle ended up on his ass lol

 

[Brentford]

Good race for Byron. Maybe he should have just given his spot to Bowman instead.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

 

[Naitch]

Socials are melting down as we speak. Seems as if they’re not entertained.

You could run a blow by blow reenactment of the 1992 Hooters 500 and people would complain.

 

[TheJester]

Ricky was posted up I’m dying

 

[Revman]

RICKY!!!!!!!! @StandOnIt .....Waiting on the Kyle punched face pic! Don't let me down!!!!!

 

[hmmm298]

That’s at least one guy who we now know never jumped to the Kyle Bandwagon when he moved to Chevy.

 

[Efisher131]

Stenhouse didn’t realize the infield pool was only open yesterday

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Hopefully one day

 

[HoneyBadger]

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Since they don’t show VL anymore

 

[hmmm298]

The literal fireworks going off adds a nice touch.

 

[BobbyFord]

Kyle definitely needs some boxing lessons. That shot was telegraphed.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Weaver got everything

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Well that’s a fun way to start the week. Not gonna be upset if I find more Sunday Night NASCAR in my future

 

[Kiante]

Now we go into the memorial day weekend smorgasbord of motorsports.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

This fight is all anyone is tweeting right now on Twitter. NASCAR did good tonight

 

[nascarwoman]

Yes. Gloves are coming off.

I predicted this -- just didn't realize it would be AFTER the race. LOL

 

[Revman]

Anybody seen @StandOnIt?

 

[Speedbowl14]

I've waited a long time to see Kyle get decked like that. 20 years of acting like a jerk on the track finally came back at him.

 

[Revman]

History has repeated itself!!!!!!!

Regardless of our personal opinions on this race, this could actually be a saving grace for NWB Speedway, especially long term as they seek a points race etc.

With all of the worries of casuals etc thinking it was boring, and with very little action in the race itself honestly, though debatable whether that is a product of the car, this will be what many of them remember and associate it and this race with “action”.
Not that there weren’t some great side by side battles, but that is everywhere regardless, but sometimes not shown as much.

Anybody seen @StandOnIt?

What, do you think I am the ref or what lol.
