Cup RACE thread --- Pocono, No. 1

I repeat, KDB has run top-tier equipment his entire national career. Go run Front Row or Rick Ware for a few months and then tell us how much JGR sucks.

He could only make it one season in the Xfinity in his own equipment with constantly complaining about the lack of power having to run triad motors

Winningest driver in Trucks and Xfin. Currently tied for first in active Cup driver wins. Hate him all you want but don’t disparage his accomplishments.

Yeah, my guy had to start at the rear and got screwed about 10 feet into the race because of that. Forgive me if sympathy doesn’t flow.

Well that certainly sucks. I legitimately went to the bathroom before the green flag was dropped, and when I came out, his issue was just done being talked about.

Chase's day was ****. Pun intended lol

They're not disparaging his meaningless lower series accomplishments, nor are they disparaging his meaningful cup accomplishments

They're disparaging his attitude.

Drop your purse if you’re offended by someone else’s attitude. Seriously.

All I'm saying is the one year he wasn't running the best of the best equipment in Xfinity he had zero wins

The notion that any sort of dislike of how someone presents themselves, and any sort of sensitivity is soft, or femine is sadly outdated Bobby. And simply not true.

I enjoy Kyle's personality and I think he's great for the sport and is on the Mt Rushmore of NASCAR personalities.

But there can be no denying that his attitude can be crap, and who cares if people don't like it?


I do think his post race interview was fine today.

The cup one was worlds ahead of his truck post race interview. And his truck pre race interview made the truck post race one look good. So at least he was improving as the day went on!

Fortunately, when Kyle retires, Ty Gibbs will be along to fill his role.

That was Kyle-esque yesterday, blocking a guy so bad he was forced to use the bumper, then complaining about it.

Actually, Bodines pre truck race question had Nothing to do with today's race. A has been goading a Champion who didn't take the bait is not an attitude. Rewatch the asinine question presented by Bodine.

To me the question was presented because he had just reached a big career milestone, so he wanted him to look back at all things that got him to that point.

And most any champion could of handled that question better. How about "There's a lot of things I maybe should have done differently or better, but in the end those things ended up making me a better person and race car driver" ....yeah not so hard.

Name any recent cup champion that would of reacted the way Kyle did?

Nothing was said about "career milestones"by Bodine. Onion asked a question, Kyle answered it with a yes. Where was the attitude? Nobody likes a Champion like Kyle because of his brevity.
Now I will watch the Red Sox vs.N.Y Yankees...

6 hours later and still can't believe it. Yelled NOOO! at the tv then took a couple laps around the kitchen with my hands on top of my head.

Trying to think of a time that happened in Cup to the leader going into the final turn...

I don't know about Cup, but losing at Pocono on the last-corner strikes me as preferable to losing the I500 on the last corner.

IndyCar: The most bizarre, heartbreaking Indy 500 finish ever

Ten years ago today, the Indy 500 saw the most dramatic and heartbreaking finish in its history, one that will likely never be topped.

Pick it up around 3:04:40 or so.

And Dale Jr. ran out of gas in turn 4 on the final lap while leading at Charlotte that night.
