Cup RACE thread --- Pocono, No. 2

[RacerrecaR]

I miss the lack of cautions at Pocono...each yellow here takes about 20 minutes

Looks like 5 isn't gonna be a factor today beyond just strategy.

@Revman got the Chevy nose revision he was hoping for.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

It’s a shame that little of nose damage totally nerfs a car.

I think Jimmie Johnson had a similar problem years ago here and fixed it with a pair of vice grips.

 

[jaqua19]

Larson can't even keep up with Matty D lol

He's gonna be a non factor today.

I don't think I ever thought Bowman would win 3x in a single season..ever.

Nevermind 3 times in half a season this year.

I'm just the opposite I couldn't believe he hadn't won more. But he had so much bad luck the past couple of years. But luck was on his side yesterday.

Didn’t they replace Krista Voda for him?

 

[Pat]

Right away? on pit road?????

NBC said they no longer needed a host when they let her go, but he seems to be playing a "host" role.

Loose wheel on the 12 down pit road again.

24 seems a bit stronger than 18.

I don't know, but I have rarely heard Rutledge all weekend and it's been great.

Blaney needs a new environment.

[Pat]

Oh well, looks like Larson is done.

 

[lisa]

I wasn't being sarcastic. I don't know what the temp is but they said in pre-race that track conditions were hot and slick.

 

[jws926]

Nah, its 85

Halfway and we're still on the second page of comments.

I kid, I kid 5 fans.

Not even half-time yet.

Not a lot to comment on.

Honestly it’s been a boring and much tamer race than yesterday. Still, I think this weekend’s format has been a great success. I love two 300-ish mile races in a weekend versus one 500.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Cars to beat right now are the #18, #2, and #9.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Yesterday was a good race. Today has been more typical Pocono.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Cars to beat right now are the #18, #2, and #9.

Nah, 18 and 24. 9 may run top 5 but I don’t see them threatening.
