Cup RACE thread --- Phoenix

[Racer1930]

We need a Danica performance update - I've got her in my pool.

Actually I would love to have her in my...oops, well...

Note to self: "keep mind on the race"

 

[R Clarence]

Wonder what's up with Denny Hamlin?

He ain't been the same since someone noted Almirola passed 'im.......

 

[sw2cam]

Did any of you see any of the IMSA racing at Sebring the past few days. The slowest Street Tuner class makes this race look like....well like
nascar.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Fun battle going on now.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

He ain't been the same since someone noted Almirola passed 'im.......

Hanging in 18th just doesn't make sense. Could he be hanging back a bit until the break to make big changes?

 

[MikeInIllinois]

Wow.....they're trying to build up the drama of the finish of this stage.

 

[Professur]

Meh

 

[SlicedBread22]

Do we still think the stages dont make a difference??

 

[HoneyBadger]

Larson is too clean a driver for his own good sometimes. Logano blocked all the way to where no other driver would allow it.

 

[R Clarence]

One of the talkin' heads just said we wouldnt have this kind of racing (his phrase) if not for the stages.

Hell, if that's the case more must be better.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

That was pretty good there. Don't remember the last time the top 5 was that close to each other early on in the race

 

[sw2cam]

They jave

Wow.....they're trying to build up the drama of the finish of this stage.

They need to do something to make it seem like good racing.

 

[Racer1930]

...and your first heat winner is the 22 car...remember to visit our concessions during the break.

 

[R Clarence]

Hanging in 18th just doesn't make sense. Could he be hanging back a bit until the break to make big changes?

Could be. He wasn't close to profiting from pushing it harder.

You do know he had to start in the back, right?

I mean, they aren't wrong. That was some good sh!t right there.

 

[MikeInIllinois]

That's why the caution flag sort of contradicts things. If you have good racing going on like that for those playoff points, why throw a yellow and interrupt it? I'd want to keep that stuff going and keep the green flag out.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

#24 team with that 32 second stop

 

[*WEAVER*]

Kyle Busch just handed Joey a rattlesnake for his stage one win trophy.

Said for a long time I wouldnt mind the segments if they kept it under green

 

[Kiante]

Ganassi must have worked a lot of overtime in that wind tunnel.

They're progress and their cars are about as good as we have seen in a while.

If that wasnt good racing.. what is?

 

[DanicaFreak]

+5 positions for the 10 crew on pit road. WOW

 

[SlicedBread22]

+5 positions for the 10 crew on pit road. WOW

-5 on the restart

 

[TexasRaceLady]

You do know he had to start in the back, right?

Oh, yes. But I expected him to make more a move to the front.

 

[R Clarence]

If they kept it under green the field wouldn't be tightened up for that "close racing" NASCAR is known for, not to mention the awesome restarts.

Need fewer laps 'n many more segments.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Mcmurray with the jeff gordon restart

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Great move by Chase !

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Oh Hell Yeah, 3 wide pass for the lead.

 

[FLRacingFan]

They're giving HMS a run for their money as top Chevy cars. Very strong.

 

[29-4]

Man, they're racing for the lead! The stage must be almost over because that's the only time it happens!

 

[DanicaFreak]

-5 on the restart

not on this one...

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Its no longer if Chase is going to win its when.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

#24 car thinks its 1998 or something

 

[sw2cam]

If that wasnt good racing.. what is?

What is.....? IMSA everytime they put out the green flag. USAC PIRELLI World Challenge when the green flies.

 

[jws926]

Well thats nice, the 41 team is picking up from where they left off at Vegas

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Geez, it's about time Kevin Harvick races into the top 10! I'm amazed the king of Phoenix qualified so poorly.

Might need to go back the other way on the adjustment for the 22 lol

Its early

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Hope Gordon Pickle has that siren working.
