Cup Series at Dover Race Thread

[StewartHaas-Gibbs Racing]

I'm heading down to Dover in the morning for the race. I bought tickets last minute and I'll be Turn 4.

Plenty of drama to look at for this race...

Will Hamlin and Harvick clash again?

How will Bowyer bounce back from his penalty?

How will the rest of the chase drivers do?

Should be a fun one and I'm hoping it's not too hot. Anyone else going?

 

[SpeedPagan]

I'll be watching the race from home, but I do think that Hamlin and Harvick will get into it while Johnson will go for a win.

It looks like entire sections of seating are closed off.

Well Dover doesn't need 120,000 seats to begin with

 

[Joniki]

Well Dover doesn't need 120,000 seats to begin with

I thought the place seated 135K.

Your point is well taken though.

8 laps and already a commercial

 

[VaDirt]

8 laps in, first commercial break!

 

[VaDirt]

8 laps and already a commercial

you beat me to it...

 

[Joniki]

Should someone start a pool on what lap Denny is wrecked?

 

[VaDirt]

24 laps, two commercial breaks. I didn't notice when they came back from the first commercial break, but it looks like there's gonna be a lot of breakes today....

 

[VaDirt]

"what's better than 400 miles at Fontana" they ask. Ummmm, almost anything?

You could start a drinking game. Everytime ESPN takes a break you take a shot lol

you'd be hammered by lap 100


Anyway a light cover...why do the lights need covers?

So that they can throw a yellow when one comes loose. Duh.

 

[PettyBlue]

AJ out first!

 

[SpeedPagan]

A caution for a loose light cover, really?

 

[Joniki]

I would be hammered all ready.

 

[kkfan91]

Newman dumps Reutimann

The only thing worse is 500 miles at Pocono.

You've sure got that right!

No Cali is far worse at least Pocono has the triangle and in PA thing going for it

 

[Spike]

Pocono and Fontana are generally equally awful.

 

[kkfan91]

Pocono and Fontana are generally equally awful.

No California is by far the worst track in Cup

 

[SpeedPagan]

No California is by far the worst track in Cup

I'd have to agree with this, Fontana is the most boring race in the entire circuit.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Great job Tony. As if a POS car isn't bad enough you have to speed to make things worse.

 

[#17D500winner]

That #43 team has it firing on all 8 today.

 

[PettyBlue]

Look at AJ cuttin' 'em up!

 

[SpeedPagan]

Look at AJ cuttin' 'em up!

Yep, AJ is on fire!

 

[VaDirt]

Tough break for AJ, but better than losing the tire and wrecking.

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Yep, AJ is on fire!

Not anymore, caution is out and I think he's a lap down now.

Stewart, Bowyer and Kenseth are already out of the championship hunt.

 

[kkfan91]

that answers my what can go wrong for AJ today question

 

[VaDirt]

wave around places Almendinger back on the lead lap

 

[kkfan91]

hmm Harvick almost to Hamlin

 

[chromehorn]

What the hell happened to Biffle? How did he get a lap down?

 

[SpeedPagan]

My boy Johnson is in first and pulling away with 2 seconds away from 2nd place.

 

[kkfan91]

What the hell happened to Biffle? How did he get a lap down?

he pitted before Kenseth blew the tire

 

[BobbyFord]

zzzzzzzzzzz...

 

[chromehorn]

he pitted before Kenseth blew the tire

well damn, my fantasy team is going to hell. thanks.

That's the spirit Skippy!

Well sadly it's true.
