Down goes Boris...

 

[Charlie Spencer]

That's a shame. I wish Boris had called it quits last year.

 

[REBS31]

C'mon Boris I expected more from you

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Sadly, I didn't. Wanted, hoped, but didn't expect.

Haven't seen a race this boring since yesterday.

 

[KyBuownsyourbrain]

McDowell dropping like a stone

Shame for Said heads and the King Said head

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Haven't seen a race this boring since yesterday.

Yeah, this first stage hasn't had much to recommend it.

Bowyer up to 18th, Hamlin to 15th, but no mention of that on the tube. They might have been fun to watch.

Dont get me wrong, I like Chase as a driver but just seeing that #24 in the top 3 here just makes nostalgic me pleased.

Really impressed with Chase today.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Man, guys are dropping like flies!!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Shrub on cruise control.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Busch has been dominant the last 3 weeks. Still a lot of time in this one though...

Interesting first stage. A lot of guys with trouble. Pit stops are going to be huge!!

 

[KTMLew01]

Pretty much, the interent has become one giant complaint box

And I get the irony of complaining about it...

 

[ChexOrWrex]

IMO if you are using the windshield wiper for a marginal aero benefit but not in the top 5, take the damn thing off.

It's required to be there. What's the benefit of taking it off? I assume NASCAR would black flag you for not having it.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Interesting strategy call by the 24. Makes me a tad nervous.

Stayed out?

 

[KodiakRusty89]

That might have been the worst pit stop coverage I've ever seen...lol

 

[AdoubleU24]

Stayed out?

Indeed. He, Larson, and Jamie

 

[SeventyGTX]

Indeed. He, Larson, and Jamie

And the tv crew didn't even mention it.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Jr to the garage. Pack it up.

Maybe you could slap a big piece of licorice or a piece of black tape in there to fool em! Maybe a fan belt or a garter snake. Just thinkin out loud here...

 

[jws926]

And the tv crew didn't even mention it.

Nope, they just mention that some drivers stayed out.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

And the tv crew didn't even mention it.

Diffy said those who pitted would be behind those who stayed out, and that they'd talk about it after the break.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Indeed. He, Larson, and Jamie

Weird call. He was third, not 15th.

Woulda lost atleast 2 spots on pitroad anyways lol.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Eh. That'll just give Kyle something to do. I suspect he does that on purpose in the X races.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Jesus the 18 team cant get a tire on tight to save their lives

 

[JGR_20]

drinking game... every time they show a replay of those two multi car wrecks...

 

[AdoubleU24]

Thinking they may try to pit with about 10 to go here and stay out at the end again. I really don't know what Alan is up to.

 

[jws926]

And now the race just got a tad bit interesting, can KB come back

 

[Clutch]

yo, I dont think Alan knows what Alan is up too

 

[SeventyGTX]

Thanks, I missed that.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

And the tv crew didn't even mention it.

They handle the whole pit sequence terribly. And I'm not really a complainer..lol

 

[REBS31]

Kahne trying to kill Menards pit crew

 

[Charlie Spencer]

"Larson throws it away on the restart!" Bagley calling it like it is.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Larson blew that restart into the corner.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Iffy brakes & old tires

Lets watch.

 

[Flyer22]

What happened to the 22 on pit road???
