Cup RACE thread --- Phoenix

[jaqua19]

Larson has pulled away by like 5 seconds from the leader.

Christ, this is 08 Carl Edwards in that first Atlanta race. Kyle Busch had the field covered, except Edwards had him covered. Only mistakes and a blown engine took him out.

Case of the best car fighting mistakes all day.

Well, I need to turn in all my 9 championship gear. I just remembered that Brett Griffin said this week on DBC when making picks that if Chase Elliott didn’t win this thing and damn near lap the field then something was major fishy in the finale.

No different than any other finale where the 4 are the best 4 cars in the field lol

I hate it when everyone is this far behind the leader. Thank goodness for stages!

We already know that. I don't care what you say if you're not in the final 4 they don't want you anywhere near the front

The NASCAR app, when the ****** works, is worth the 5 bucks a month.

'S okay, he'll pit again shortly.

 

[Kiante]

Chastain is doing his best version of Newmaning.

What a pass by Suarez to stay on the lead lap!

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Ugh, the indignity of being pressured for position by Almirola at a non plate track. This car has fallen off a cliff.

Uh, isn't he in 8th?

Between him and Kenseth, it really shows how much Larson’s talent was carrying that car.

Been saying that for years that Larson was carrying Ganassi.

TBF, Kenseth got ho'ed because Johnston wanted to run Larson's setups until he finally got fired from Ganassi.

Talk about two completely different driving styles.

Back there with the peons.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Yes. I’m pouting because this was one of the “sure wins” I had pencilled in. At this point I’ve chosen to provide humor for fans of other teams at my expense in my posts.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

And.... great stop and 9 speeds

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Back there with the peons.

Now he’s back there with the peasants.

 

[StandOnIt]

tough break for the yotas, they weren't faster than the 22's pit guys

 

[Kiante]

Hand out those traffic violation tickets.

Aric couldn't let me have nice things in pick em.

The 9 team is totally cursed at Phoenix aside from last fall. Miracle day.

 

[JBone88]

Pretty sure Mike Joy is on something today.

“HOLY BALLS HIDE YO KIDS HIDE YO WIFE THE 9 TOO FAST ENTERING!”

 

[RollingCode]

I feel like I’m at work with all these speeding penalties.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Rick must be happy today.

I’d say Vegas is the worst for the 9 team.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

His teammates are posting dominating wins while he struggles to run top 10. Has defending champion Chase Elliott....lost a step?

 

[FLRacingFan]

I like Truex for the win if it goes green long, super quick over the last couple of runs.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Truex just ****** yeeted Logano

 

[Kiante]

C Bell needs new underwear after that.

Larson put the pain from all those Chili Bowl losses into Bell right there.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Truex just ****** yeeted Logano

In typical MTJ fashion, not quite well enough.

 

[wi_racefan]

how did the 22 hold the lead on that?

 

[antman12]

yeeted

Haha, What does this mean?

 

[Kiante]

Logano's got fast hands.

Like really fast hands.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Bubba's having a good day.

EDIT 11th - 15th are unusual.

 

[Kiante]

Haha, What does this mean?

Think of being kicked into the "Pit of Death".

That's being yeeted.

 

[wi_racefan]

Bubba's having a good day.

Maybe he can stay up there today. seems to pick up spots on yellow pit stops and fall back

 

[ChexOrWrex]

The only reason why he was mired back was due to bad pit stop under green.

He's been moving forward all race, for the most part. He was setting top 10 times prior to that caution, he gets better over the long run.

I think the ticker is broken.

 

[wi_racefan]

Just noticed the 43 is having another solid day

 

[jaqua19]

Anyone but Truex please.
