Cup RACE thread -- Pocono

[Bowman The Showman]

Jamie Mac highest running Chevy thus far, he’s driving like his seat is warm

It needs to be. Hopefully he will try and prove something. The dude is a good driver when he wants to prove it. Just been too many seasons since he’s really gotten fired up

[Jorge De Guzman]

Not sure since I haven't gotten one there, but I'm sure there is

Can you see entire track from the grandstands?

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Terminal Velocity? I never heard of that sounds like launch angle and exit velocity in baseball

 

[DewChaser988]

If McMurray is let go by Chip, his career is basically done, no semi-competitive team is gonna pick up a good but not great driver at age 42

 

[BobbyFord]

Can you see entire track from the grandstands?

Depends on if you have binoculars.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Can you see entire track from the grandstands?

For the most part. Can't see the backstretch very well, but It all depends on where you sit. I sat down low for IndyCar and besides the backstretch and some of Turn 2, I could see pretty well

I have dogged him for years in comments. I really like him for a long time but he’s very streaky, I mean very streaky.

It’s fristrating to see because he DOES have the talent, it’s just like he doesn’t lock in on it all the time. You are correct. He needs to show it especially these days.

 

[BobbyFord]

48 in 1st?????
Don’t get used to it

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Wowzers first green lap the 48 has led all year. Someone alert The General, Jimmie is back.

 

[BobbyFord]

4 car is strong.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Jimmie’s scheme is brutally bad, miss that Lowe’s blue

 

[DewChaser988]

Do you think Bubba is eventually going to leave RPM? The poor quality of RPM equipment is kinda holding him back, (look at Almirola's success so far at SHR as proof) we've seen what Bubba is able to do in competitive equipment, it's impressive

 

[Johali]

Can you see entire track from the grandstands?

You could from our seats. That's turn 2 straight ahead. I took this during practice.

 

[Bowman The Showman]

How about blaney this year... talking about having speed but nothing to really show for it.

If they stay on it eventually he should go on a winning streak.

 

[Mopardh9]

4 car is strong.

Every race

Wowzers first green lap the 48 has led all year. Someone alert The General, Jimmie is back.

Hmmm not yet...if he wins you can say that.

 

[StandOnIt]

missed the pass 4 by the 18

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Can I admit, I wouldn't mind Restrictor Plates here

Sure, I admit to enjoying warm lime Jell-O in my underwear.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Probably the best car Truex has had in weeks. Might have something today

 

[harkin]

“This car is junk”

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I kinda wish Pocono was swapped out for Kansas in the Playoffs

 

[Mopardh9]

Plates here would be a abomination.

 

[Michfan]

Plates here would be a abomination.

Plates anywhere are an abomination...imo

 

[Mopardh9]

Plates anywhere is sn abomination...imo

I don't often agree with you, but this is so true.

 

[StandOnIt]

Give the rookie Byron two tires and while they are at it stick some thumb tacks in his hands so he can have the whole experience.

 

[DewChaser988]

So good to see Hendrick cars that AREN'T junk this year

 

[BobbyFord]

The long green flag runs here become monotonous for me.

 

[SlicedBread22]

Race for the lead... "..and now a word from our sponsors."

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Deaf Toyota kid has a better laptop than I do.

 

[Blaze]

Plates anywhere are an abomination...imo

I don't often agree with you, but this is so true.

I don't know, I mean Daytona and Talladega kind of need them. I guess they could come with an engine that would have them running slower, cause we don't need them going as fast as they could go there without them. But only if they can find away to make them slow enough without the plates.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Is it me or is the #78’s splitter not flat across?

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Geez Buescher is already a lap down I really wet the bed in the pick em game this year

 

[2 Sweet]

The long green flag runs here become monotonous for me.

Well lucky for you, they have stages now to help with that

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Truex

 

[BobbyFord]

Is it me or is the #78’s splitter not flat across?

Whatever it is Kevin hates it.

 

[Blaze]

Is it me or is the #78’s splitter not flat across?

I don't have my glasses on right now, I can't tell haha.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Instant replay for half a lap. Really

 

[BobbyFord]

Any Chevrolet’s in this race?

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

late 00’s this was Denny’s House, good stats there Fox
