RACE thread --- Daytona 500

[jaqua19]

I see better/more respectful racing at the local short track. The WOO guys don't play like this.

I love open wheel racing because I grew up on it. The danger was always part of it. The respect those drivers have for each other and their machines have always been of the utmost level...

Lol I feel I should redact my previous statemenr

Haley.

Oh my goodness it was McDowell.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

These drivers lose all ****** talent with less than 50 to go every plate race. Damn.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

LOL...another wreck getting the green. This time Bowyer....amateur hour in full force! Time to tune back into ND-UNC...

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Tighten your seat belts everyone. It's gonna be a wild one.

And just as I post that, Bowyer and McDowell go around on the start.

 

[Mispeedway15]

You kidding me McDowell

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

The last laps of a Super Speedway race are just as frustrating as the last 5 min of a close NBA game

 

[donthaveanickname]

LOL The clash all over again

 

[JBone88]

These guys go totally brain dead on GWC. It’s unreal.

 

[DIDIT]

Poole is in 12th.

I just noticed. What a solid debut from him so far.

10th!

 

[StandOnIt]

Dang it, Haley was having an exceptional run

 

[SlicedBread22]

Anyone but Denny PLEASE!!

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Looks like Bowyer got shoved sideways.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I swear McDowell always finds a way to stick around until the end

Had to say something, didn't you?

 

[FLRacingFan]

Think we can at least hit Turn 1 next try. Baby steps.

 

[klemmabyna]

They aren’t going to make it to turn 4

they can't make it to the green!

 

[ChexOrWrex]

The xfinity race was better than this. Maybe some evaluations need to be done on talent over ability to hold a sponsor.

Might be fresh out of cars by then.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Everyone at the end of a plate race

[Ventisca]

Blaney, time to shine!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Gaughan is fantasy gold.

 

[DaBiff1618]

It’s unreal that the best drivers in the country can’t go 2 laps without wrecking. I get it if you’re blocking for the lead late but why murder somebody when you’re running 8th at the end? Drives me crazy

I agree! At some point just start suspending guys for dega and daytona for idiotic racing. I'm not impressed by the ability to wreck. It's low level racing...

 

[klemmabyna]

anybody but Hamlin????!!!!!!!

 

[StandOnIt]

There has been a live stream on YouTube. That's different

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Does Corey have any shot at consideration for the 48?

 

[Joker]

No.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Corey winning would be cool as hell TBH

 

[StandOnIt]

Nemo in 7th

 

[Kiante]

Bummed for Clint though, he had been smart all race for that to happen. That has to suck.

Its been about an hour since the big one that has lead us to this point to run 13 laps

The GWC itself is the brain dead method that makes them.

 

[machinistman3]

I used to love Daytona and Talladega but I’m beginning to despise them.

This is full contact, boys-have-at-it, figure it out amongst yourselves on-track NASCAR wrecking and racing. Race Stewards aren't gonna save you out here.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

No joke I was able to watch basically the entire first half of ND-UNC since there was about 15 to go. That's an average speed of about 94 feet per minute....

 

[Joker]

The talent just ain't what it was...

2 years ago the ARCA didn't have it. I thought dawn was going to break before they got the race in

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Only if 35 other drivers pull an Edwards.

 

[REBS31]

Really hoping that Buescher locks onto Newman and pushes like hell.
