Already getting antsy.
Open at the green. Or before, if I get too anxious. LOL

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Now, this is how the anthem is supposed to sound. Great job.

 

[Head423]

Now by golly that was a command. Hell yes my man

 

[REBS31]

Now that's what I call a command

May all the drivers get out of the cars the same way they got in.

 

[Madman88]

May all the drivers get out of the cars the same way they got in.

Couldn't we hope for a few to come out nicer? dare to dream I guess...

Ass first? I think only KyBu could do that...

 

[KodiakRusty89]

I love this place! Not a fan of pack racing but this place is so cool!!

 

[DewChaser988]

The cars were hitting some crazy speeds in practice and the closing rate is insane, should be interesting

 

[Madman88]

larry channeling his best scott goodyear. What we call 'air molecules'. next he is going to say a car is covering a football field a second

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Whoa baby that guy is ready to start his engines. I love Dega, a big boy track where it takes steel balls with a hint of being a bad ass to win. The overused saying of it “separates the men from the boys” is oh so true here. But golly I do miss watching Dale Earnhardt Jr ply his craft here, it truly was Earnhardt country.

[ReturnTrip]

I'm prepared for this motorsport contest to commence.

 

[donthaveanickname]

I have no clue what's gonna happen.
Let's hope this will be one heck of a race and all the drivers stay safe!

Go 6, 8, 38, 48 and 81!!!

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

A sweet home Alabama boogity.

 

[DewChaser988]

Here we go!

 

[jws926]

And here we go

 

[Racer1930]

Talladega USA

 

[KodiakRusty89]

You can feel the energy there! I'm hoping for a fun and most importantly safe race!!

 

[DewChaser988]

So far I'm liking what I am seeing

 

[ReturnTrip]

If someone spins out with a 20 inch spoiler can we laugh at them or no.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Stenhouse is going to take out half the field before the race is a 1/4 through....

 

[kkfan91]

Say what you will about Stenhouse, but he makes it exciting

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

I got all excited about tandem drafting.

 

[Efisher131]

Stenhouse clearly in desperation mode already

 

[DewChaser988]

This is looking like a Gen 4 era Dega race and I love it

 

[Racer1930]

High line looks best so far....lots of blocking but it's early...

 

[StandOnIt]

Stenhouse clearly in desperation mode already

Stenhouse is in that mode every super speedway track

 

[Mispeedway15]

I got all excited about tandem drafting.

I mean you could. But the air hole is so damn big it allows packs to form easy

 

[SlicedBread22]

So far so good.. its gonna be a chaotic race I think

 

[StandOnIt]

Yellow's out.

 

[Ventisca]

Thank you MRN!

 

[donthaveanickname]

Caution is out.

 

[ReturnTrip]

Has anyone had orange vanilla coke? It sounds vile.

 

[Racer1930]

Anybody know the splits on the stages? I should have checked.

 

[REBS31]

WHILE WE WERE AWAY

 

[JBone88]

While we were away!

 

[jws926]

That didnt take long

 

[Madman88]

If someone spins out with a 20 inch spoiler can we laugh at them or no.

laugh??? it will be a lab exercise in how to defeat physics in every university across the nation

 

[KodiakRusty89]

And the thinning of the herd has begun. They seemed a little too racey for this early...
