Cup RACE thread --- Pocono

Rear tire changer on the 18 is lightning.

Larson sweeps stages one and two.

 

[DUN24]

Larson sweeps stages one and two.

Loving that. He needs the stage points. Plenty of time to end up with a solid overall finish.

 

[JBone88]

Larson could use those stage points with the season he’s had.

 

[Blaze]

Larson sweeps stages one and two.

Which means he'll find away to lose the race.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Maybe we get a "Indy 2017" restart...

Needs a win

That's what I don't like about the playoffs, there's never a huge urgency or story if you've had a bad day and already have a win.

Nice stage finishers tho

 

[Ventisca]

I'm just glad I got to see a NASCAR race today.

everybody is trying to win.

Another thing I like about this track is how the size gives the CCs options.

 

[2019PensekeFan]

Blaney really got loose in turn one and only Mike Joy noticed.

 

[Blaze]

That's not what they said? they said having a bad day doesn't matter once you got a win.....

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Bubba in the top 15.

18 has the best engine in the garage.

4 car ate him up in turn 1, 2 and the short shoot.

18 gapped him by 0.35 out of turn 3 and down the front stretch.

That's not even a handling chasis deal, that's strait up engine power.

Yep. That car is stout. Only car that gets out front and drives away.

Cryle did have a better line, but he was the car to beat after the practices.

 

[donthaveanickname]

The variety of strategies actually made the race interesting so far. Not a good race, but an interesting one.
Would hate to see Pocono losing a race because NASCAR uses the wrong package.

I guess technically Martin needs more regular season points for the bonus point system, which to my point, have lessened importance once you have a win or bunch of wins.

I don't doubt JGR isn't trying to fix things and figure things out.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Can't say I've ever learned anything from the Ones To Watch segment.

 

[Truex_rox]

Which means he'll find away to lose the race.

Sadly, that is looking like a very real possibility.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Looks like Kyle is just managing the gap to Harvick.

 

[Spotter22]

It always matters

 

[Blaze]

It always matters

Not really, but I'm not going to get into any pissing contest with you so enjoy the race.

 

[Truex_rox]

Whoa, wait a minute, I spy Bubba right outside of the top ten.

 

[harkin]

Whoops loose tire.

 

[JBone88]

4 team blows it again.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

4 is for 4uck-up.

 

[donthaveanickname]

We can basically congratulate the 18 for the win now.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Harvick's pit crew just gives races away every week.

That seals it for Kyle.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Classic #4 crew. Smh.

 

[2019PensekeFan]

The 4 team shoots themselves in the foot again

 

[machinistman3]

Harvick will give them an earful

 

[Truex_rox]

Way to go, 4 team, staying true to form!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Whoa, wait a minute, I spy Bubba right outside of the top ten.

Pit cycle but he's having a good day.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Two tire change & fall victim to uncontrolled tire. Ouch. Gonna get blasted by Harvick afterwards.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I do not "gotta feel for these guys"! Every other week they screw up something crucial. Do your jobs. A huge reason of why JGR win so much is because they're just as freaking dominant on pit road, even without $1M guns, as they are on the actual track.

no package has worked wonderfully at that track.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Well...The 4 crew strikes again. They should all be fired. Amateurs.
