Cup RACE thread --- Watkins Glen

The guys still on wets look like they’re literally in a different class of cars.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Pitting lap 18. Hope Alan knows what he’s doing

He'll be fine

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Lol. Almost all spotter chatter on 9 radio is telling him where water is to cool the rain tires

 

[Hikaru Kitsune]

They all just blow by Larson like it's nothing...

...has he pit yet?

 

[BobbyFord]

McDowell is driving his stones off

Cliff: "I know it's painful but I'm telling you those guys cannot make the pit window. They have to 3 stop the race, we will be 2 stopping the race"

HMS is outthinking themselves again.

Clinging onto wets…9 seconds off pace.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

He'll be fine

Chase asked for slicks before everyone else, Alan waived him off because they can’t make fuel window

 

[aunty dive]

With any luck, they’ll have to put wets back on.

Pretty good racing I'm glad they went to split screen in the commercials there.

“How many more I gotta go here?”
“Complete this one then pit. Hang on.”

Except they'll all be on the same pit cycle when stage 2 starts lol

I dunno why everybody was whining about rain ruining the racing.

 

[Hikaru Kitsune]

Fords out Front.

And best of all, none of them are Broseph Brogano.

 

[jaqua19]

“How many more I gotta go here?”
“Complete this one then pit. Hang on.”

This is a 9/5 strategy. They're doing the same thing.

I think this is Sonoma all over again, imo.

It’s be perfect if there were no stages. I’m with you. HMS doing their best JGR Nashville pit strategy impression

 

[10-4]

Look at them Fords!

The stages really kill competitive racing.

 

[aunty dive]

I think Gustafson is on edibles today.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Anybody seen a better first stage this season?

 

[Spotter22]

Nice play by the 9

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Briscoe lonely out there with no one to punt. .

 

[Hikaru Kitsune]

I think Gustafson is on edibles today.

McDowell and Buescher were shook enough.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I'm glued to the TV. This is good. Although the differing strategies makes my head hurt.

I know I am

Can we restart the “FiRe AlAn!!!!!” Train?

 

[10-4]

I can't remember theyre usually pretty tame. I bet without the rain this one would have been. That said, since Briscoe takes the points here in stage 1 does he really have a legit shot to now win?

WG is the perfect track. Intermediate speeds with road course turns. Perfection

Without the rain, I truly think it was the 9/5 show. Rain made it fun as heck.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Two-thirds of Trackhouse in the top 5.

Larson psyched himself out before it even began.

 

[34R7H130UND]

Ayeeeeee ditto

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

Bill Elliott is spotting for Chase near bus stop, and is really quiet. Chase just said “if you’re covering the mic with your hand, please stop.”
Bill: “but the wind is so bad!”

 

[jaqua19]

“How many more I gotta go here?”
“Complete this one then pit. Hang on.”

Does just also sound super annoyed like Kyle?

So did Chase per pre race interview

I never got off tbh

Shouldn't have had that burrito.

He didn’t sound happy. But stage caution came and they told him “we’re back in the game, Bud.”

No.

Allowing teams to change tire types on their own schedules will make this race for me. I hope it rains for 5 minutes and quits again.
