Cup RACE thread --- Texas

Attrition and the 22.
Too many wrecks today.
I hate this car and how clean air keeps meaning more and more.

He couldn’t hold off two ex champions when it was pay window time and then wrecked himself trying to hold his position.

He was running tires on one side that was put on during the Bristol race.

A half dozen really good cars had issues and finished at the back today, yet the 9 could still only manage a 16th? What the hell is going on with this team

Change is needed, but no one at HMS seems to have the guts to pull the trigger.

Time for some deep soul searching. You know the answers, but it’s hard to admit them because it’s embarrassing for fans who have talked **** for so long imho.

Exhibit 3178.12 of why this piece of **** doesn’t belong on the schedule.

I don't think the track is the problem. It demands the total attention of the drivers and challenges them to drive smarter.

Good for him, he couldn’t close. He had a good day though, he ran upfront most of the day.

Blaney needs Rogaine for that chin. Does that even qualify for a beard?

 

[Truex_rox]

Big day for Legacy Motor Club.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I like this reverse grid walk! Regan killing it on pit road

 

[BobbyFord]

Nice to see Jones get a decent finish

 

[antman12]

Love how those post race interviews went. Got the top 5 all in bang bang bang bang.

 

[Goose61]

Ha ha Joey waving the flag as the fan yells “F you Joey”

People here in Texas know a douchebag when they see one.

He's the slowest in the HMS camp, and routinely slower than the three Spire cars as well. Something needs to change

 

[Efisher131]

Odd year Logano curse broken?

 

[Nitro Dude]

He’s no AJ Foyt, that’s for sure

Yep, he isn’t a bully.

 

[StandOnIt]

Top 5 lol.

What?

 

[Nitro Dude]

Watermelon man darn near pulled it off.

 

[ahhculdee]

I swear he backs into half of his wins. Can't until Larson passes him in all-time wins.

 

[Michfan]

What?

I had no idea what he was talking about either

Yeah I'd bet they're all over the place

Exhibit 3178.12 of why this piece of **** doesn’t belong on the schedule. Not to mention the dead horse argument about this car…

Ridiculous take. The track and car was difficult as hell to handle today. This is what we should want as fans

Persols... nice.

Looks like we wear the exact same sunglasses.

Logano moves up 2 spots. No help from whoever is making the standings sheet.

The car is just an aero POS. Keeps getting worse. kLeEn AiR Is kInG.
This is how racing is from here on out.

 

[BobbyFord]

Look what happened with the 24. Initially pulled away with front end damage until mechanical grip happened. Once he got in dirty air, he sank like the Titanic.

Tru dat. The track was reconfigured with two completely different ends because the fans said the track was a cookie cutter. Now with age the pavement has come in, setup is complicated and the track is slick and treacherous. The drivers and most of the fans wanted a car that is hard to drive. Now of course they want the opposite. Let em cook, nothing is changing. Multi lane very fast passing track that takes skill to drive.

Elliott tied for third with 4 drivers within 4 points of each other.

For some reason greed overcomes product quality and they get rid of California.

It’s not as bad as the last one though. Most tracks with any speed were one groove only with the previous car. You could pass today, it just wasn’t easy

Patiently waiting for the 22 to pass tech
