Cup RACE thread --- Talladega

[TexasRaceLady]

Chores done, lunch eaten. Ready to settle down in the recliner.

Please keep this about the race. If y'all want to argue about tearing down the banking or "why do you watch if you don't like this race" put it in another thread.

Who are you kidding? We know you'll be pacing the floor by lap 10.

That was back when Junior was racing. Now, I'm usually good until the last 25 laps or so.

The Chevy strategy is they went all in on handling. It's going to be interesting to see if it pays off or not.

Cat play session is over and she's napping now, so hopefully she is satisfied until the race is over! Lol.

Have to love Talladega and the big rig pulling the flag around

The parts salesmen are licking their chops

It's going to be wild. 10 cars running at the checkers. I'm taking the over, I think there will be more than 10 running at the flag.

Seven cars away from being perfect

Talladega Tony Stewart is my favorite Tony Stewart.

The Allison Brothers and Red Farmer giving the command to start the engines at Talladega is a fitting and righteous moment.

Oh the stories these three legends can tell!

Let's go Harvick send it off in style!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Great crowd.

What the ???

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Flat?

 

[aunty dive]

Nobody touched him.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Flat?

Looks like it. How no other car hit him is a miracle.

 

[wi_racefan]

From a manufacturer standpoint, I think I want my guys side by side not lined up

Some Pick ‘Em pickers breathing easier.

Yeah, that's not like McD at all.

 

[StandOnIt]

Good job of hanging on to it, I think he might be able to rejoin the fray

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Toe link? Did it break before or after he hit?

 

[wi_racefan]

Toe link?

Looks like it, but doesn't make much sense

I picked McWowell. I don't think he is out of the woods yet.

 

[REBS31]

Hopefully they won’t take 3 years to restart from every caution like they did both races yesterday

Listening to Brad's radio and he thinks the top is better. Took a couple less spots to get the top

He needs a yellow pretty soon.

McDowell. RR flat.

Doesn't seem like they can get a 3rd lane going yet

The track is littered with debris they need throw the yellow now....

Congrats on getting parole

 

[Turtle84]

MJ looks intense

I'm guessing he's your Pick-em?

Don't waste green flag coverage on concert highlights.

Not sure there's really a need to try right now being only 17 laps into a 188 lap race.
