Cup RACE thread --- Road America

[Charlie Spencer]

Buh-bye.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Have I mentioned how much I love the fact that Cup has returned to this track?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Damn, hate that for Cindric. He had a great run.

 

[Kiante]

Wtf was Lajoie thinking there?

 

[TexasRaceLady]

What a mess of dirt/turf left by the 7. That needs to be cleaned up.

 

[racer8]

18

 

[HoneyBadger]

Great track. They should be at Daytona on July 4th though.

 

[Kiante]

Now Matt D is having issues.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

LaJoie at a tractor pull.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Matty D reporting he has a problem.

Flipping A...

People would be complaining about afternoon showers and potential hurricanes

 

[StandOnIt]

The Lajoie's mouth must have gotten in the way of the steering wheel

Exactly.

You get it.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Good call by Gustafson. Get that 9 out front after break and it’ll be tough

Hey, he’s stacking pennies and can’t afford the steering wheel the big boys use!

 

[donthaveanickname]

Hell, I like Rutledge. People take life to seriously, it’s nice to have someone out there who’s just chill.

He ain't chill he's just weird.

 

[DIDIT]

I am one to be critical of the broadcast, but kudos today for not commercialing us to death...at least so far.

Today is the first day on weeks that it hasn't rained.

This race in Daytona would have been delayed.

 

[Blaze]

Chill, weird, it’s whatever to me. I dont take life to serious so I enjoy stuff like that.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

They jinxed Kurt.

They had like 20 min of caution at the end stage 1 to get a bunch in

THat probably couldnt of happened to Kurt at a better time

 

[Kiante]

Truex.

Too fast entering.

 

[donthaveanickname]

That's what Murray Walker called the commentator's curse.

 

[lisa]

c'mon Kurt!!!!!!

 

[TexasRaceLady]

So far, this race has NOT been a stinker. But I may jinx it by saying so. *sigh*

Chaotic fun.

 

[DewChaser988]

This race has been chaos, but fun chaos

 

[carolinabuff]

At least he only lost 1 spot plus the caution is coming soon so they can get that grill cleaned off

Low-key Lajoie has been really good for Spire.

He made a mistake, but he still recovered well in the stage. The man can drive, I just find the constant bellyaching about his mantra is annoying.

 

[jws926]

Jebus, decent size chunk there.

I don’t understand the Lajoie disdain/dislike. Can his stacking pennies thing be annoying...I guess?? But atleast he has a personality, 90% of the field has zero personality.

I really like his podcast. I think most people don't like his comments when it comes to different levels of equipment in the cup series, but its usually spot on

Exactly, I don't agree with everything he says or does, but I respect what he does.

I respect his drive to never giving up to being in Cup. He was a laughing stock back in 2015, but look at how he's grown as a Cup driver. Just grinding with these smaller teams to improve. You got to respect it, but that's JMO.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Now 9 and 18 are up front. This should be good

 

[Kiante]

Road America is a keeper though, loving this track so far for the Cup schedule.

Never gets old for any series that races here.
