Cup RACE thread --- Texas

[Mike Crayne]

I’ve literally made like two posts here, one mentioning Johnson and one mentioning Hill. Johnson crashed, Hill in the garage. No more mentioning drivers for me.

You talked about Larso....Didnt you!!!
/joke

11 is about to check out. 5 was our only hope and he’s done

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Someone check on Andy after that …

 

[nascarwoman]

What the hell is going on with wheels?
I foresee pitcrew practice from dawn to dark for the next week.

 

[Spotter22]

You think Jimmie Johnson forgot how to drive ovals? How’s he doing?

I fail to see the comparison. SVG needs seat time before he moves to the Cup series. Every lap helps him no matter what car.

If experience mattered, Jimmie Johnson could hold the car straight

 

[Brentford]

Austin Dillon. . Seriously, what’s up with that car this year???

 

[Thegeneral23]

Busch coming

OK, explain what you are talking about. SVG has 2 or three races in Cup, Oval racing is not his fort'e . The more he runs the better, its just a fact my friend

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Big hit for the 34.

 

[Reck]

Larson being let back into this is gonna be the funny outcome of the race.

Drivers say the Xfinity cars are completely different to drive than the cup cars, and that the trucks are a better preparation for cup these days. Why have someone learn in Xfinity around lesser drivers and get them used to oval racing in something completely different than they’ll be driving next year?

 

[Spotter22]

Larson is 1 down , this is gonna be fun to watch

 

[MikeInIllinois]

Larson will be back on the lead lap after the conclusion of the 2nd stage if there's not a caution before that.

Its seat time my man, every lap he can run helps him with the lines you can run. Even if it s an xfinity car, or truck for that mater

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Things were so different 1 hour ago

 

[HoneyBadger]

Kyle Larson is still gonna win.

His car is that far superior.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Harvick with the ultimate dad joke about Chastain leading lmao

 

[HoneyBadger]

Most talented driver in history.

His race craft holds him back, along with the playoff format.

If he could clean it up and if we had a better championship format, Larson would win 10 titles.

 

[Reck]

Larson and crew with the big brain move. Literally yarded himself at the back being the only one 1 lap down just riding.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Harvick with the ultimate dad joke about Chastain leading lmao

Has Harvick bragged about Keelan’s performance last night?

Agreed. Still think he’s going to win a few cups before it’s over

Larson and Byron are 1A, 1B right now. The Gibbs guys have far superior cars and still can’t beat them most weeks.

 

[Efisher131]

If it goes back to Homestead, he has at least 3 more in him

 

[MikeInIllinois]

Bubba Wallace running strong through the first two stages, in 2nd.

 

[Blaze]

Damn

 

[antman12]

Ugh.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

14 was an innocent bystander in that one.
23 got loose.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Damn, hate that for Bubba

 

[REBS31]

Harrison Burton leading at a non-drafting track, must be a low-pressure system traveling through hell

Hendrick cars are definitely superior to JGR. Hendrick will always be the best super team.

A full on ice age down there

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Bubba Wallace running strong through the first two stages, in 2nd.

Uh oh.

 

[Mike Crayne]

Damn, I hate that for Bubba and Briscoe

 

[Brentford]

Are we sure that's not Jeff? I mean, that Harrison kid hasn't even had a top 30 finish this year, has he???

 

[LibertyU24]

That bump is the best part of this race. They should add a bump like that to every track

 

[Mike Crayne]

Are we sure that's not Jeff? I mean, that Harrison kid hasn't even had a top 30 finish this year, has he???

I would assume its pit strategy.

 

[Efisher131]

Uh oh.

Everybody should post “Denny Hamlin” starting now

 

[Brentford]

With all these cautions, I've lost track of who actually belongs up front and who's up there due to pit strategy.

 

[Blaze]

I know he won’t win, but has a father son ever had their first win at the same track?
