and then Earnhardt Jr. screwed over Jimmie Johnson.

 

[#17D500winner]

What a crazy start to this race

 

[Jeffrey00]

Wow there is no lawn, only mush.

 

[FenderBumper]

Dude, we don't have time to wax the hood!

 

[beantownkid10]

Tony is loving this haha

Go ahead and turn off the TV now

Yeah, you don't know me too well there Andy.

 

[StandOnIt]

atta boy Jr, took out two Hendrick cars in one shot.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

And there is that thing I ******* hate the most - the splitter absolutely destroys the nose of the car when it gets in the grass. Pass in the grass would never work nowadays. Get these things a few more inches off the track please.

Amen.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

Well, I still agree with what Tony said a few years ago. No matter if he won the Daytona 500 - Dale Jr is still a boy riding on a name to me.

 

[#17D500winner]

That's why Andy doesn't want people on his lawn

Nope --- there is racing going on.

 

[beantownkid10]

Looks like JRs front end just got caught in the mud. Tire didn't seem to blow until after he got stuck.

 

[SpeedPagan]

The chances of Johnson winning a race today just decreased, this track is very aero-dependent.

 

[DSquad48]

Chad's flipping **** on the radio, I love it

 

[Jeffrey00]

Yeah, you don't know me too well there Andy.

I'd say go watch the pirates play, but they are off today.

 

[Wingnutcnc]

And I thought someone said this was a boring start??????

Chad says the window shouldn't affect the car's performance much as long as it doesn't collapse in on Jimmie lol

 

[#17D500winner]

There goes the point lead.

 

[SlicedBread22]

"I didn't know the grass was there" .. Wow..

 

[SpeedPagan]

Chad says the window shouldn't affect the car's performance much as long as it doesn't collapse in on Jimmie lol

What about the left front fender?

 

[KevinWI]

And I thought someone said this was a boring start??????

1 lap of excitement for 19 laps of caution.

 

[StoneTown]

Yep, Jr said he didn't know there was grass there.
Seems like the kind of thing he probably should know.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

I will love if someone makes a gif out of jr's wreck with this

 

[dirtguru]

At least Jr. Fesses up to it. We'll it worked for Sr. Before.

 

[SlicedBread22]

Well, I still agree with what Tony said a few years ago. No matter if he won the Daytona 500 - Dale Jr is still a boy riding on a name to me.

Well he proved hes not his old man lol.. cant pass in the grass

 

[Jeffrey00]

is Nascar going to make the 48 team replace the windshield? seems like a safety issue to me.

 

[FenderBumper]

lol @ Jr not knowing the grass came all the way to the pavement.

 

[SpeedPagan]

Okay Johnson, calm down and relax. You're not a good driver when you're irritated.

 

[StoneTown]

How is that windshield safe?

 

[Johali]

Sonofa.

You called it in the big dawg thread.

 

[beantownkid10]

No SAFER barrier where Jr hits either.

But don't worry they have the biggest TV in the world there now.

 

[StandOnIt]

And I thought someone said this was a boring start??????

just getting started IMO, this race is going to be wild.

 

[SpeedPagan]

Wait...are we sure about that? I thought that at least the outer walls would have SAFER barrier on them.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

I bet Danica knows where the grass is

 

[Jeffrey00]

How is that windshield safe?

probably not, but I doubt Nascar forces them to replace it.

 

[DanicaFreak]

ahh they can clean it

 

[KevinWI]

is Nascar going to make the 48 team replace the windshield? seems like a safety issue to me.

Do teams bring spare windshields? They could grab the spare from the backup car I guess.

 

[ChexOrWrex]

No SAFER barrier where Jr hits either.

Wait, what?
