Cup RACE thread --- Sonoma

[SpeedPagan]

These teams spent years adjusting these races around stage breaks, gonna take some time to unlearn and go back to the old way.

Don't worry, this only applies to road courses, for now. I really want NASCAR to apply it to every race though.

This will be the obligatory “this car sucks so much” and “this track can die in a fire” post.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

This race has gone green except for a runaway tire, but the booth is going to beat the "What if a caution???" drum.

It’s the old “can he make it on fuel???” when, if you have a scanner, you know they’ve told the driver they’re good by like 3 laps. Gotta make people keep watching an absolute stinker some way

I think the car still sucks, I just think this shows that fake stage cautions kill competitive racing.

I was just thinking that about 'Win Clint's money'. Pretty bad when you have to bribe the audience to watch.

I’ll be darned… the rare perfect post from Andy of all people.

Have you ever said anything positive? If so I haven't read it.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

And there’s the caution

[AdoubleU24]

[TexasRaceLady]

[34R7H130UND]

[Blaze]

Damn Dennis.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

FFS Fox, THERE IS A CAMERA IN EVERY CAR. There’s zero excuse to not know what happened.

You see why

BS caution, btw

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

9 is staying out

 

[BobbyFord]

A spin-and-go warrants a full course caution…in a BS world
Busted a porcelain dog biscuit

 

[AdoubleU24]

9 is staying out

Now that I think is an automatic failure lol

 

[StandOnIt]

PIT PIT!

 

[Thegeneral23]

Do you ever post anything positive about NASCAR?

 

[AdoubleU24]

So dumb

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

No other choice. Needed buffer behind, didn’t get them

 

[AdoubleU24]

They never do lol. #2020coke600

 

[Charlie Spencer]

McDowell bleeding positions!

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Now that I think is an automatic failure lol

Mreh, his only chance. No speed. They’re hoping clean air counts on radio

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

McDowell would’ve been better off staying out.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

They never do lol. #2020coke600

At least it wasn’t a teammate blowing a tire that screwed him this time

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Now that I think is an automatic failure lol

Agreed but pitting was too.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

Truex winning this horrible horrible bore would be appropriate.

a spin in front of 20 cars, come on dude

 

[donthaveanickname]

Don't understand anyone from 10th on back coming in at all. You're not gonna pass them all on track, why not gamble.

 

[BobbyFord]

This is how NASCAR makes up for failed stage yellows.

I don't get it either. No guts

Stop

 

[BobbyFord]

Shoulda been a corner yellow. Didn’t affect the majority of cars on the track. It’s not like he was sitting out there, not rolling.
Anything to help HMS catch up.

I want Winchester in iRacing so bad…
