with 48 laps to go?

Yeah. 9 is the second best car, and Larson is gonna be coming from mid pack. Tool him 15 laps to make up 4 seconds on the 1, we will see.

They havent talked about him all day but McDowell is still holding strong in the top 10.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Chase kicked up a good bit of dirt there.

The 5 is gaining on interval and is in traffic. Relax.

Yeah I think unless another yellow comes out, the 5 gave this one away to the 9. Not gonna have near the track position I don't think to make up the gap.

Don't count out the 9's ability to choke away races

Boy that “Lar2on” narrative shifted real quick.

I feel like I shouldnt say this , but Kurt is having a solid day so far.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Truex and Larson are coming.

 

[AdoubleU24]

There def gonna be a caution. It's not even a question lol.

I mean, are we sure? It’s not like anyone has been aggressive today. The only non-stage yellow was a blown tire. Not a lot of guys making contact today.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

I think it’s time to revive the whole “Hendrick’s using traction control” rumors.

Much better day for CGR than last week.

 

[Hendrick4ever]

Holy cow Larson

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

The 5 and 19 in traffic have cut almost a second a lap off the 9.

Whaddya ya mean, "rumors"?

Nah they are soaking the tires.

*that Gordon “burnout” where they forgot to turn it off*

 

[donthaveanickname]

I wouldn't mind if Larson continued to smoke the field for the rest of the year.

 

[StandOnIt]

I saw Larson carrying a nitrous bottle

 

[jws926]

Very much, and now we jinxed him

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

One nice thing about today? Track is large enough we’re not lapping the 66 and RWR cars every 2 minutes

I’ve never heard of this before.

*tin foil hat time* Rick is giving him the best stuff to attract a sponsor. /s

Don't think I've been anything other than calm. At the time it seemed like a winning call for the 9. Relax.

Sounds like tires could be an issue.

 

[StandOnIt]

[Charlie Spencer]

Them tars is uguly.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

What race is he ever in?

From a fan standpoint he doesn't need to be in a hurry with that. The HendrickCars paint scheme looks great.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Larson flat toying with Chase here

yeah with 48 laps left, it's too soon to tell for any of them IMO

 

[donthaveanickname]

They ran the 600 with Starr but stopped running full-time because of a sponsorship issue that was somehow related to an iRace.
Carl Long stuff.

I would care more if Sonoma was a track where Chase typically dominates

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Larson back to the lead.
