Pocono RACE thread -- Rd. 1

[Wingnutcnc]

I liked what I watched of the race.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Dale just gave the most hilarious news conference at the media center. He was on a roll.
The best part was the exchange between him and Dustin Long. ROTFLMAO

 

[PushRodV8]

I was surprised at this race. I enjoyed every lap. Congrats Jr.

Kez and Stewart threw away a pretty good chance at a win.

Brad Keselowski breaks his ankle, wins at Pocono.

Dale Earnhardt, Jr. inadvertently breaks Dustin Long's ankle, wins at Pocono.

Bottom line: be responsible for someone's broken ankle, win at Pocono.

Yeah he made a dumb mistake but calling himself a "bad driver" is a little harsh.

Yep, i agree.

 

[Kyle18fan]

Yeah but it's easier to just to find something else to do.Thinking about finishing some yard work.

Pocono isnt at the top of my list but todays finish was pretty interesting to say the least.
Yard work sucks for me this time of year, its 115 on my patio in the shade right now

 

[Kyle18fan]

Geeeez................ Did I just watch Brad throw one in the fire ????

I bet JGR sends all its drivers to Pocono with BOTH ankles broken next year.

Yeah, he's being a little hard on himself, but least he took responsibility for his mistake.

i remember stewart saying one year, he didn't deserve to be in the chase, and he went on and won the championship that year

 

[Nitro Dude]

Even though SHR left a lot on the table today...i'm still pretty excited for Kurts 3rd place finish.

 

[JBone88]

Damnit, figures I worked today and missed the race!! Atta boy Junebug!! Bout damn time he got a break at the end of a race. I'm freaking amped to watch the recording of the race now

#JeffGordon - "Double teamed by the Stewart-Haas cars, man they killed us (on the last restart)." #NASCAR #Team24

This all may be true, but I dont think Jeff needs to be tweeting during the race. Not even during the scheduled debri cautions.

 

[Kyle18fan]

Kevin may want to hire an exorcist before the next race. His cars are possessed.

Karma, its all karma

 

[pudge]

Not even during the scheduled debri cautions.

scheduled

As bad as the racing was today, as annoying as those restarts were... Not a bad race overall. Strategy was wild, loved the finish..

Thats all Ive ever known pocono to be. Pit road strategy race.

Maybe it's just my foggy memory, I feel like other races in the past have featured more green flag passing.

Still like the uniqueness of the track though. Love that they're downshifting in every corner nowadays.

 

[Greg]

And Hamslice in fourth! Yes!

Still the best avatar in the history of mankind.

Who ever did the sound mixing was horrible... cars way overpowering voices. ... I know some may like it better that way

You actually want to hear them talk?

 

[Wingnutcnc]

This race had a mixture of a little bit of everything going on and I enjoyed the racing I seen. The day wasn't confined to just a couple cars or may TNT just present better coverage from the camera POV.

Yep, it's amazing how much power a broken exhaust valve spring will rob from the engine. It made Joey look like he had his parking brake on.

He's not the one tweeting. They're not allowed to have phones in the cars. He has someone back at the office tweet quotes from in-car radio.
