That's the best graphic shop work I've seen in a long time. I bet if you sent that to Kurt, he would bust a gut laughing.

Good idea. I'll give it a try.

 

[MOEJOE]

Or send it to Jimmie spencer. I bet he would get a kick out of it.

Tell my wife that!

HA! Good one!

Penske Nationwide cars have had their front upper bumper covers taken here at Talladega. New ones going on.

I see Speed or ESPN couldn't be bothered to cover the practice today.

You really expect them to absorb the added cost of sending the entire production crew to the track a day early just to cover practice?

They have before.

Perhaps Danica is losing her luster?

 

[FenderBumper]

Didn't practice get rained out?

 

[Tennessee Racing]

Didn't practice get rained out?

Yeah and they have cancelled Qualifying for tomorrow and replaced it with practice.

 

[Matthew2470]

They have before.

Maybe when the Cup race is on Saturday.

It's this kind of thing that makes my day better. Excellent.

 

[Matthew2470]

Here we go...
Hard to say what we'll see today.

 

[Joniki]

What is Hornish doing?

 

[Matthew2470]

These guys are all pretty racy today. Fun to watch so far.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Looks like a mix of tandem and draft racing... something for everyone.

 

[Matthew2470]

Bummer for the 70.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Kurt Busch penalized for leaving with equipment: Drive thru penalty.

They left the mother****ing gas can in when he left.

Also, blend line violation for Ricky Stenhouse, Jr: End of the longest line.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Don't look now but here comes Danica Patrick!

 

[HoneyBadger]

Danica wants to win!

 

[HoneyBadger]

The black number three, being pushed by Dale Earnhardt, Jr., racing for for the lead and a wreck behind them.

 

[mike honcho]

Guess KuBu forgot you can't push on the LR.

 

[Matthew2470]

Brian Scott kinda sucks. He had his car wagging before the 1 got there.

I don't know how he continues to get top notch rides. Actually, I do, but still...

 

[FenderBumper]

I want to know why Kurt was even inside Scott at that point. He wasn't being pushed, so where did he think he was going? Text book case of not giving a guy a little room.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Yep, everyone on Twitter blaming JWT for that.... not sure I can blame him for that. Dillon wasn't "blocked in", he just plowed in to JWT.

 

[FenderBumper]

Does Harvick really think they will go green for 30?

 

[FenderBumper]

Andy, do you have an empty seat count?

 

[Matthew2470]

The 1 could have lifted. But it always looks easier on the slo-mo.

Saw the same thing in regular speed. Dumb move by Kurt. Much more of this, and the NW series won't need Steven for action.

 

[Matthew2470]

Danica said she doesn't want to get way out front with the 5 due to the possibility of getting shuffled to the back if they come apart.

 

[FenderBumper]

Penske cars saving their engines for the end?

There is enough to at least spell Talladega

 

[HoneyBadger]

I wonder why Joey Logano is great in Nationwide but is a mediocre driver, at best, in Cup.
