Dover had rain this morning --- that means a green track.
The guys are using the same tire that kept blowing out on the trucks.

We may be in for a looooooooong day.

Can you say, "Indy Jr."

Perhaps time to rename the thread early on -- "Allstate Goodyear Blowout 400 II"
 
Anyone here have DirecTV?
I've been on it for 10 years, but didn't realize NASCAR Hot Pass was included with our package
there's 4 channels available;
795 in Car Denny Hamlin
796 in car Jeff Gordon
797 in car Clint Bowyer
798 in car Earnhardt Jr.
 
Is this Fox broadcast the last one?
Yes.

TNT takes over next week. Billy's still in the booth

with Wally and Kyle. They have 5 pit road reporters this year: Marty Snider, Matt Yokum, Ralph Sheheen, Lindsay Czarniak:growl: and Jim Noble.
 
I don't see any empty seats there.

Yep, Dover should definitely lose a date so Atlanta can keep theirs or so Vegas can get a second date. :sarcasm:

I just got Direct TV Thursday. Thanks for that info, I would have never known they were there, today has been the first day I have had a chance to get used to it. One more thing to keep me from cutting the yard today.

I hate to say it but I've gotta tune in to Jrs channel to wittness this trainwreck first hand.
 
I would love to go to Dover and sit in the flyover or whatever its called.
 
The Autism Speaks 400 at Dover is green.

And the last "Boogity, Boogity, Boogity" until Daytona in February. :rolleyes:
 
Richard Petty has not won a race as an owner since 1999. John Andretti in the #43 STP Pontiac came from a lap down at Martinsville to pass The Intimidator late and held on for his second career win.

Since then -- one second place finish in 2001 at Bristol. That was also with Andretti, who finished second to Elliott Sadler (who now races for Petty) in the Wood Brothers #21 Ford. Now you don't have to look it up because I already did.
 
"Elliott Sadler would love to see a caution."

He'll see it alright -- first hand. LOL
 
44 laps in, 1st toasted right front tire...

But he pitted on lap 15. None of the teams reported cords and it doesn't sound like Raines expected that or he probably would've come to pit road. Looks just like Indianapolis, the tires won't give any indication before they pop.
 
Regardless of who wins today, we have something positive to look forward to...no more LarryMac and no more Digger! :D

Not to burst your bubble -- LarryMac is part of the TNT crew. And you can replace Digger with Bill Weber (who, unfortunately, doesn't go back to his hole after 15 seconds).
 
I do like the Digger camera shot...it's fun to watch the cars from that angle.
 
I could hear the collective "oh ****" all the way down here in Waldorf. :eek:
 
Looks like things are working out for Junyer, he's in 7th.

A tip of the hat as well to Reed Sorenson (8th), Paul Menard (12th) and Regan Smith (18th).
 
I can't wait for double file restarts.

ESPN says it WILL happen this month (June).
 
Yeah and if they go to that double file restart all these guys would never stand a chance to get their laps back.
