Big hit for Chase - that car is done - hope he is Okay

 

[REBS31]

Starting to get flashbacks from...yesterday

 

[FLRacingFan]

**** this noise.

 

[jaqua19]

12 is the car to beat!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Glad to see Chase okay after that, he hit head on at 180mph

Yeah, that looked way too much like Big E...

 

[Brentford]

Well, roughly half of the NASCAR pick-em participants aren't off to a good start.

 

[slash14]

dam..harvick was so close.....

 

[HoneyBadger]

6 laps down Keselowski strikes again.

And not even his fault. Not sure why Elliott tried to throw that block.

 

[mack]

That's the GoDaddy car.

She just got caught up in a mess not of her doing. She was running as good of a race as I have seen her run in NASCAR.She was in contention for a solid finish.

 

[donthaveanickname]

And at this moment, Danica's NASCAR career is officially over.

 

[jaqua19]

Also, 100% on Chase. Threw a block

 

[Reck]

9 ball came down

No kidding.

Happens all the time when you get punted.

 

[aunty dive]

9 ball came down

Yes he did. As per Jeff Gordon.

 

[SeventyGTX]

Wow Brad totally takes him out

Looked to me like the 9 and 2 both moved down at the same time..............and it didn't work.

 

[Kiante]

9 ball came down

No, doubt I'm watching on my PC.

I'm a little delayed and caught it late.

 

[MIracingfan]

Well, you race like a dong, you get donged

 

[KTMLew01]

crap.

 

[DUN24]

Shaking muh gotdamn head

 

[StandOnIt]

The Daytona 500 deserves better than this. I'm sorry but this is not a quality product. Atlanta can't come soon enough. Speedweeks has become cringe worthy.

back again today I see..glutton for punishment

 

[Blaze]

I couldn't see a block, looked to me as if Brad just hit Chase in the back and sent him around like an idiot.

 

[Pat]

this is depressing

 

[CodeMan125]

Seems like everyone is losing their minds near the end of the stages.

 

[donthaveanickname]

She just got caught up in a mess not of her doing. She was running as good of a race as I have seen her run in NASCAR.She was in contention for a solid finish.

That comment could be from any of last year's plate races.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

When my boys wreck out

 

[Rick]

U block penske like that and they will drive right through your quarter panel. It is known. Chase has been plate racing like that since his move to cup.

 

[jws926]

Looked to me like the 9 and 2 both moved down at the same time..............and it didn't work.

Yeah, it did not work at all, Chase threw the block just a tad bit too late.

 

[CodeMan125]

This ^

 

[Kiante]

Shaking muh gotdamn head

Ya boy still in it tho.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Really dont think you can point elbows in that one.

Chase had a run and went for the lead and Brad tried pushing and everyone knows pushing in the corner doesnt work.

Plate racing at its worst.

 

[4tires17gals]

hopefully this is the last year for stage racing, It's pointless and nothing but anti 48

 

[FLRacingFan]

I hate that this kind of racing takes out so many innocent bystanders. Just asinine.

 

[StandOnIt]

Seems like everyone is losing their minds near the end of the stages.

I don't think stages have ever been the problem at a plate track

 

[jaqua19]

Not sure what you are watching

 

[Ford 222]

I’m way behind but is anyone else’s volume all jacked up?

 

[CodeMan125]

Well Go Blaney, .Bubba and David Ragan !

 

[KodiakRusty89]

back again today I see..glutton for punishment

30 years of watching. The Indy 500 and the Daytona 500 are the holy grails of racing in this country. The Indy 500 still has a great competitive spirit. The Daytona 500 is just insanity. It's not the RPs fault either. They don't help but the drivers are doing it to themselves.

 

[LJ7201]

Yeah, that looked way too much like Big E...

I was gonna say that until I saw the replay, the angle Chase hit at was much more forgiving thankfully, and he wasn't hit in the side simultaneously

Also this is a good time to appreciate all the safety advances nascar has brought on

 

[Brentford]

These guys have every right to block as they are racers, but doing so is just silly this early in the race.

 

[DUN24]

Glad Elliott is alright, that hurts.

Ya boy still in it tho.

Yeah but one of my other dudes just tried going thru the fence haha.


As much as I love the new crop, they need to chill the **** out.

 

[StandOnIt]

Not sure what you are watching

they see what they see..replays don't count
