Johali asked me to put this up.
He wasn't sure if he'd make it to the end.

3 fuel mileage saved this from a 1

 

[DUN24]

4. All my drivers got screwed and the the racing was lackluster. AD got his first ever win though so that's kind of interesting.

 

[Speedbowl14]

2.5 the last 3 laps saved it all.

 

[KodiakRusty89]

Due to the rain delay this was the first 600 that I've been able to watch "most" of. I actually thought it wasn't half bad with quite a few twists and turns. I really had no idea who was going to win the whole time I was watching.

Solid 7

 

[racingfan7]

7 from what I saw.

The final stage was awesome -- worth the wait! You didn't know who was going to win it -- tires and fuel strategy, with top cars trying to track down the gamblers!!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

7. Some good passing up front. Different strategies. Entertaining but not spectacular.

8 Glad to see it came down to fuel mileage, wasn't sure it would with the extra stage.

Race: 2

FOX broadcast: 1

Only thing that saved this race from being a 1 was the final 25 laps. I cannot wait to see the roval next fall and hope like heck that next year's 600 will have no stages. This event is meant to be a strategy/endurance race and I am thrilled the finish came down to strategy (whether it be fuel, tires, attrition, or whatever else). Thankful that at least all 3 finishes today were good.

It woulda been a 4 had I been sober

And woulda been a 3 if not for the fuel mileage surprise winner

Goodnight

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

10. Loved my first 600 and was very cool to see the 3 back in victory lane. Also Jr got a top 10 my first time going this year. Can't wait for Dover next week

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

I'll go with a 5.

 

[JBone88]

5. Pretty boring outside of the fuel strategy at the end.

Cool to see Austin Dillon get his first win.

Truex a bridesmaid again with the universe's best race car.

5.5

Somewhat salvaged by fuel mileage. Better than the ASR.

Race thread: 10

5.5

 

[jws926]

6.5

 

[kkfan91]

5, would of been a 6 but when both my guys crash

 

[ToyYoda]

Better than last year but still not that great. I'll go with a 6.

 

[SlicedBread22]

I like a first time winner so I'll give it a 5.. but not impressed with how hard it was for faster cars to pass. It's almost like clean air -- not speed.. was king.

 

[ahudsonman]

7.5

 

[Hotrod]

First time winner knocked it up to a 6.

 

[LewTheShoe]

The first race of 2017 with clean air being so important, so I deduct points for that. CMS was more racey than last weekend in the All Star show, so I guess the VHT was beneficial. Didn't care for the Toyota domination. And I don't like the extra stage. I'll say 6.0.

 

[Flyer22]

5.5

Fell asleep a few times, missed the ending

kind of hard to get excited when all 3 of my Penske cars are out of contention.
Congrats to the #3 for the win.

 

[Dinosaur]

First time winner and fuel milage race knocked it up a little for me

[Johali]

We were there and had a blast so I'll give it an 8.

 

[SlicedBread22]

This one reminded me of the first full cup race I ever watched.. Michigan in August of '09.. Jimmie Johnson leading in the closing laps and ran out of fuel giving Brian Vickers his first cup win. Sound familiar? Lol

Hopefully there were some new fans watching last night.. because after seeing that I was hooked! I didn't even realize that was something that could happen lol

 

[darlingtonfan]

5 I just finished watching dvr of the race.It's about what I expected,fuel mileage race didn't surprise me.

 

[DRSpeed]

7.5 Good to see another first time winner.

Well, Vickers won his first race at Talladega years before that.
