Johali's Rate the Cup race --- Sonoma

[TexasRaceLady]

Congratulations to Truex. He now has 4 wins here --- one more to tie Gordon.

Kind of hard to rate this. Not much action until the end. But interesting, just the same. 7

7.5

Not the best race I've seen this year but it beat Gateway all to pieces.

 

[SpeedPagan]

Honestly I actually enjoyed it. It may not be the most "exciting" race but the green flag runs allowed for different pit strategy to play out and it allowed us to see who was better at taking care of their stuff.

Ima go with an 8.
Minimal nascar intervention led to a legitimate road course win.

Good race for Sonoma standards.

If only NASCAR could do this for every race.

I only caught the end of the race so I don't feel qualified to give it a rating, but I'll say this:

Fox's coverage, in all, was about a 2 this year. Can't wait for NBC in a couple weeks.

NBC will be worse. Their broadcasts suck every year.

7 with an extra point for not being a typical road course GWC shee show

8 - I like road course racing. It was hard to pass though.

Blaney getting punted ruined it for me. Without that….6.5

I always love Sonoma cup races and this one was even better without the stage cautions.

 

[Dr_B_UNC]

5. And only for the no stage break cautions. It was nice to see a race flow naturally, but my God is Sonoma boring. If we need to go to a road course in California that doesn't really suit stock cars with two passing zones at best, I'd at least be excited to see the cars tumble down the carousel at Laguna Seca.

6 a bit boring but no stage breaks was so nice.

I can't go higher than 4. Boring as hell from start to finish.

 

[MRM]

I slept through half of it. What I did see was a 5.

I'd love to see the G56 Camaro run the Corkscrew.

 

[Revman]

Not fair for me to rate this. I was there. WE won. No number high enough. Hell yes!

 

[wi_racefan]

I'll be generous and give it a 5

Spot on, but I'll go 6. The racing thru the field wasn't half bad, but the top 2 dominated. Agreed though, there's no long straights to get a hell of a run on a guy so it's rather easy to block here

 

[LibertyU24]

6 Good race, just nothing exciting about it.

 

[Magnethead]

I fell asleep for most of it.
