Cup RACE thread --- Richmond, Rd. 2

[Pat]

Wow, an uncontrolled tire for 2 seconds and you're dead!

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Richmond has been pretty tame for several years. It does not race like what people expect "short track racing" to be. I don't mind it, though I dare say that maybe a hotter, slicker surface (not night racing) would cause some loss of grip and more action.

Richmond is not a short track & nascar/nbc advertising it as such hurts real short track racing expectations.

 

[Johali]

Go number 9.

aUsTiN dILLoN hAs nO tAleNT

He's meh to me still. Newman is still the better overall driver out of the two, RCR is just doing what they do best atm. Throw everything and the kitchen sink at the grandson IMHO.

 

[racer8]

Well poop

 

[DaBiff1618]

THATS an uncontrolled tire? NASCAR trying to make this race less boring I see lol

 

[Kiante]

Well poop

He'll be fine, I'd give it 20 laps before MTJ makes up the majority of those spots.

 

[Pat]

Go number 9.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Come on Brad !!

 

[Kiante]

Keselowski is on fuego atm.

Where is Newman in the playoff standings?

 

[StandOnIt]

you and the tire must be one at all times. uhmmmm

 

[racer8]

These guys are playing nice, too nice
Need a few chrome horns and bent fenders and hurt feelings to spice this thing up

 

[rd45usa]

Zen pitstop

Zen pitstop

when safety and stupid collide

 

[Pat]

Too many laps in this race.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Here comes Kyle

 

[Kiante]

Where is Newman in the playoff standings?

Newman is still the better driver, he had a bad season. Dillon won a plate race this year, but Newman is still the more consistent driver as a whole.

One one-year for Newman and he would have been ahead of Austin if he did not win Daytona.

 

[Kiante]

Kyle is the fastest car on track, he looks great over the long run. Car looks more stable compared from the start of the race.

 

[Joker]

51 needs to pit!

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Well, it was fun while it lasted. Awaiting the inevitable 18 win now.

 

[ReturnTrip]

These asinine pit reports and 'world's longest sentence' explanations by the booth are going to drive me INSANE.

JUST SHUT UP.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Great run for Dillion in 6th so far

 

[be9ak7ts16]

Too many laps in this race.

Maybe a25 lap feature race?

 

[Johnny G]

Marlboro was the main sponsor of NASCAR apparently. I thought it was Winston all these years.

 

[Pat]

Maybe a25 lap feature race?

How about a caution. Where's the debris when you need it?

 

[Pat]

Oh there it is.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

No way the 2 wasn’t speeding there

 

[RollingCode]

How has the race been so far? At a concert and haven’t been able to watch tonight.

This announcing bunch needs to try baseball next

 

[jws926]

Alright, some action, battle for the lead

 

[Kiante]

Okay this is good.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

This is awesome racing!! Been flipping between football but this race has been great!!

 

[Kiante]

Brad is so calculated with his defensive driving.

Amazing stuff.

 

[Clutch]

Darn good racing between the 2 and 18!

 

[gnomesayin]

I'm fine with them being on commercial break. It's better to just watch the battle without their relentless hype.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Brad used his stuff up. Unless there is a caution, this is over

 

[Truex_rox]

The big three is in the top three.

 

[RollingCode]

Brad shuffling back. Aric in 4th is a really good run
