Cup RACE thread --- Richmond

[TexasRaceLady]

Truex in the top 5 on a short track?

Yeah, that got my attention, too. Wonder how long it lasts.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Menards fluorescent yellow is something.

Truex in the top 5 on a short track? Let me check myself real quick.

Say, has he ever won on a short track?

 

[FLRacingFan]

The Booth doesn't call the race, they just wade thru their Talking Points as they focus on this driver or that driver.

Maybe Diffey and some of the radio broadcasters need to take charge of the booth...

I'd love for someone to take Bestwick away from tennis and Ivy League broadcasts but it seems like he really enjoys being back home in the NE. I can dream though...

 

[FearThe4]

moving this race back to night might have been a mistake.I know the fans like night racing but richmond is better in daytime on a hot and slick track.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Bestwick, Jarrett, and Petree had it going the last 2 years on ESPN

 

[Charlie Spencer]

#37 looks like it was painted by a Brownie troop. At least it's running where we can see it

He's been pretty good on the short tracks recently. Just doesn't have that coveted short track win.

 

[Kiante]

Say, has he ever won on a short track?

No sir, his wins are all on intermediates and some road course wins.

 

[StandOnIt]

Buescher up there again on a short track

 

[FearThe4]

yeah espn finally got it right in the end such a shame it took them so long and then they decided not to renew.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

No sir, his wins are all on intermediates and some road course wins.

You'd think TV would tell us about that.

 

[Kiante]

Excuse me, Mr. Larson that is going the wrong direction sir.

I'd appreciate you going forward instead. K thx sir.

 

[FLRacingFan]

I don't think the Toyota owner who got paired with DiBenedetto is going to win $10k.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Excuse me, Mr. Larson that is going the wrong direction sir.

I'd appreciate you going forward instead. K thx sir.

I have both Kyles. One saving me, the other is killing me.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Just got home from work...

The #19 seems to be showing some potential tonight. Bowyer in 5th too! Not too shabby....

 

[FLRacingFan]

You'd think TV would tell us about that.

 

[Turtle84]

We need a KBone stat.

 

[Kiante]

Saurez is really starting to show his potential in that 41 car. He's been mighty impressive tonight and he's beginning to show some consistency.

JJ's bolting through the field as well. He's supposed to be all washed up and useless tho?

 

[2019PensekeFan]

The goat wins stage one.

Suarez is starting to look like the driver that he was in Xfinity. Another example of a driver getting moved up too early. Glad things are starting to get better for him

 

[ToyYoda]

Pretty dominant Stage 1 for K. Damn Busch.

 

[gnomesayin]

Say, has he ever won on a short track?

Not to mention it's his home track.

Moving from JGR is already starting to show dividends. He wasn't moved up too early IMO, JGR did a damn good job developing Daniel. Just at the Cup level it was just not meshing.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I am entertained thus far, the wife even said we should add Richmond to the race track list. I love this track and looks like a good crowd tonight

 

[Kiante]

LMAO look at that gap between Busch and Logano out of the pits.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Didn’t they just run this race during the day the last couple of years?

 

[Turtle84]

The #19 seems to be showing some potential tonight. Bowyer in 5th too! Not too shabby....

If they can somehow get to clean air, I think both are strong on the long run.

Must be nice to have a wife who likes going to races!

 

[Ventisca]

NASCAR replaced recreational smokes with Big Pharma...

 

[jws926]

Oh yeah, the first Saturday night race of 2019
Just got home and finally finally caught up to the live feed.

 

[racer8]

The goat wins stage one.

More like a jackass

 

[KTMLew01]

moving this race back to night might have been a mistake.I know the fans like night racing but richmond is better in 1980 on a hot and slick track.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Didn’t they just run this race during the day the last couple of years?

Yep. I preferred the day race but apparently the track sold more tickets for a night race.

 

[FLRacingFan]

lol Kyle is already two car lengths ahead by Turn 1. There's no beating this guy tonight.

 

[carolinabuff]

KyBu pulled away pretty easily on that restart

 

[KodiakRusty89]

lol...Larson again...

 

[Johali]

Chase had a 16 second pit stop and then had to go back in for loose lugnuts. That's after getting put in the back for Alan failing inspection.

 

[Kiante]

Chase is having a ****** night so far.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Bad season continues to get worse for Larson. Jesus.

 

[Kiante]

Larson has regressed like a mfker this year.
