[DIDIT]

[StandOnIt]

tissues for all.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I fully endose SHR's strategy. It's the format that encourages it that deplore.

 

[FearThe4]

SHR has their act together. Maybe boring to some, but if you can control the race --- DO IT !

I'm enjoying this. However, with 10 to go, I bet it's every driver for themselves.

it should be everyman for themselfs esp for Busch and boywer where a win puts them in the next round.

 

[34R7H130UND]

I had a great 80 lap nap. What's going on yall

 

[FLRacingFan]

SHR has the fastest cars and are refusing to actually race each other. Blame team orders and everyone else being conservative.

These are hardly team orders though. It's teamwork.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

These are hardly team orders though. It's teamwork.

Best approach so everyone advances.

 

[DewChaser988]

Everybody is driving like a coward, not even having the stones to even try to race

 

[TexasRaceLady]

SHR has their opponents on the ropes. Keep pounding on them and drive to victory lane.

41, 14, 4, 10.

Strategy controls for sure, like it or not...

Sorry, a coward wouldn't be out there doing 200+ mph.

Pull out of line and go backwards. Plate racing 101.

 

[ReturnTrip]

This is what we get to see next year at every 1.5 mile track....enjoy it.

 

[DewChaser988]

Talladega races have never been this dull

 

[ChexOrWrex]

These are hardly team orders though. It's teamwork.

These guys are supposed to be the best racers in America and all starving to win every race.

Not so much. Not just SHR. Everyone behind them are content with follow the leader to survive. This is the antithesis of suspense and unpredictability.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Brad's backing up to get a run.

 

[lisa]

10 laps left, time to goooooooo.

 

[FLRacingFan]

These guys are supposed to be the best racers in America and all starving to win every race.

Not so much. Not just SHR. Everyone behind them are content with follow the leader to survive.

Hard to pass and hard to drive and SHR are incredibly trimmed out.

 

[Efisher131]

The single file racing hasn't shut the hyenas up

I really think today is more a product of the final 10 races, and they are very much points racing

 

[StandOnIt]

Blaney wimped out

 

[AdoubleU24]

My lord these guys are morons

 

[DewChaser988]

I really think today is more a product of the final 10 races, and they are very much points racing

How ironic, NASCAR designed this asinine playoff format to eliminate this kind of thing

 

[racer8]

Here comes beavis and butthead

 

[FLRacingFan]

These guys aren't organized. Kinda just roaming around aimlessly.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Brad's backing up to get a run.

No discipline outside the front four.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Hard to pass and hard to drive and SHR are incredibly trimmed out.

Its hard to pass when they dont even make a move.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

SHR is loving all the moving around behind them.

 

[jws926]

How ironic, NASCAR designed this asinine playoff format to eliminate this kind of thing

Right!

 

[Conwayite]

It's coming...you can feel it!!

 

[jws926]

SHR is loving all the moving around behind them.

Oh you know they are, that is allowing them to pull away, I know many here dont like it, but its pretty impressive how strong SHR has been today.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Its hard to pass when they dont even make a move.

Tbf I think that last effort showed it's more that everyone behind Brad is mostly clueless. No organization whatsoever. Too much wasted energy.

Then get this race out of the Chase.

 

[Pat]

This is stupid. They can't catch them if they keep stepping out!

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Sorry, a coward wouldn't be out there doing 200+ mph.

Oh please

Firstly, they arent going 200+ MPH

Secondly, as far as the racer mentality goes, this is cowardly.

 

[DewChaser988]

Then get this race out of the Chase.

Or I have a better idea, GET RID OF THE CHASE ALL TOGETHER

 

[34R7H130UND]

Everybody racing for 10th instead of trying to catch the lead 4

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Or I have a better idea, GET RID OF THE CHASE ALL TOGETHER

Or get rid of this race. Or both.
