Daytona 500 --- RACE thread

[DUN24]

Congrats to KuBu and Tony Gibson. That's pretty damned cool.

 

[Pat]

I wanted to say3rd was the best position but didn't want to jinx. Congrats Kurt and team and fans

 

[jws926]

This is awesome

 

[Michfan]

Congratulations to Kurt... Would have loved to see Blaney win

 

[slash14]

well...atleast tony wins the daytona 500 as an owner...gratz to kurt and tony!

 

[Reck]

They played it perfect staying behind the #24.....they made the #24 use up more fuel pulling the pack.

You dont make a guy use up so much gas he runs out with 3 to go. It was a miscalculation from the pits. Simple as that.

 

[Fordracing7]

Woooooooooooo holy cow that a boy kurt im shaking

 

[ralpho711]

Boo. Ku Busch sucks. Better than Ky winning.

 

[DSquad48]

Tony Gobson's gonna give me a panic attack

 

[Michfan]

Why did Jeff keep saying the leader should go to the low line? They would have just got freight rained

 

[Hotrod]

COME ON KURT!!!!

Congrats Bud. Great finish and under GREEN !

 

[Greg]

Micheal Waltrip said a top 10 would be a good day, and he got it on his finale.

 

[harkin]

I'm even happy for Smoke.

 

[lisa]

My mom would be so happy. She's been gone a year next month.

Monster sponsored car wins first Monster Cup race?

Would have loved to see the Woods Brothers win another dark horse race.

 

[ReturnTrip]

The racing was surprisingly good...finish not as much. Wish there had been more cars around at the end.

 

[Hotrod]

Tony Gobson's gonna give me a panic attack

Was going to say it's rigged lol.

 

[AndyMarquisLive]

LOL Larry McReynolds said fuel wouldn't be a factor. #fail

 

[harkin]

Did I see that right, did Larson run out of gas just as Kurt passed him?

 

[lisa]

CONGRATS LISA

Embarrassed to say, I'm sitting here crying.

Me too but this year will prove this team Is not really an underdog anymore

Chase winning in the 24 car on the 20th anniversary of Jeff winning his first 500 probably would have yielded a similar result.

 

[DUN24]

Did I see that right, did Larson run out of gas just as Kurt passed him?

Yup. Simultaneously just loss all forward drive

 

[ToyYoda]

Embarrassed to say, I'm sitting here crying.

Congrats Lisa! Enjoy it.

 

[harkin]

Would have loved to see the Woods Brothers win another dark horse race.

Me too - almost! Was Kyle slowing up a factor there?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Waltrip got 8th in his final race. That's pretty cool as well.

Yes, I'm happy for him as well.
It's 12.30 am here now. Good night!

 

[purple earl]

KuBu -- limited sponsorship, sometimes only Haas would back him; and now this.

BOOM!

and in a Fast Ford (with good gas mileage)...

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Awesome to see The Dinger finish 3rd.

 

[Greg]

Matt DiBenedetto P9.

 

[lisa]

Kurt deserved it. Dude's lost this race every possible way.

He really has.


Happy about Mikey's finish, awesome.

 

[Mispeedway15]

The racing was surprisingly good...finish not as much. Wish there had been more cars around at the end.

Crazy ass race for sure but yeah haha you need more cars left. I can't believe Kurt has never won this race

 

[Hotrod]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Congrats to you Lisa. Huuuuge win.

Oh Crap, Look at Monster ! Just put that together.

 

[JimmieGordon2448]

Awesome to see The Dinger finish 3rd.

If he hooked up with Blaney the 21 could of challenged Kurt there

 

[Blaze]

I bet Monster is loving the start of the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series.
