they are taking their time with Logano's cheated up car, guess they sent the 2 thru tech first

 

[DUN24]

Hell yeah Karl!!!!

Great command!

 

[BobbyFord]

Looks like Chad might've helped with the Penske set-ups

 

[SuperTex14]

Lil' Joey still at the pump?

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

There are a few stong gusts at random. Otherwise mostly calm.

Don't worry loafobread will be here to explain it all.

Having the Waltrips as the voices of NASCAR is one reason why many people still consider "stock car" racing to be a hick sport.

Not a big fan of the Waltrips but I am proud of NASCAR's "hick" heritage. Many have learned the hard way that "hicks" can be master mechanics, ace drivers and strategy experts (not to mention "edge of the rules" red-a**es).

 

[KevinWI]

Why didn't they move Logano to the pack of the pack?

Is Timmy Hill old enough to drive a car?

oh ok, been pretty windy up here in Oklahoma all day long

 

[harkin]

Beautiful evening, yee haw!

there have been a big number of drivers from other series, that have had their butts handed to them by these "hicks"

 

[SuperTex14]

everybody looks loose going over that bump in 1-2. Is that the tunnel?

 

[Joniki]

JJ is driving a vanilla colored acre.

 

[Johali]

JJ is driving a vanilla colored acre.

JJ is driving acres instead of laps??

 

[KevinWI]

Seems like a lot of alt paint schemes tonight.

 

[SuperTex14]

That text blocker actually seems like a good idea...

 

[KevinWI]

I know people said it last week, but that new Coke Family commercial is brilliant. Seems like they used leftover footage or something.

Dang you...

I don't know, I mean they mention Fontana, Newman quickly closes the thing and Tony has this look on his face, it seems they could have maybe got Tony and Joey to place nice long enough to make a new one.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Harvick is running Top 10 lap times.

If they are gonna go to commercial at least it was funny.

 

[KevinWI]

Hamlin is in it though. Seems unlikely to me they would have gotten an injured guy to jump through the hoopla of recording a new commercial. The Fontana thing could be dubbed in via post-editing. Newman/Stewart's reactions could be from outtakes or whatever.

 

[Nitro Dude]

I think I might be the only person on this forum that likes Darrell Waltrip

I have never had a problem with the Waltrip Brothers.

Well true, I just looked into it and that's what seemed happened.

 

[StandOnIt]

nobody has anything for Kyle right now, he is cruising out front

 

[BobbyFord]

Looks like a lot of passing mid-pack. Prolly a damn good race live.
Wish I was there

 

[BobbyFord]

Matt is quietly moving up, as usual.
Yellow flag

 

[KevinWI]

First stealth debris caution of the night.

 

[SpeedPagan]

That's one of the problem with the Gen 6 cars, 1st place cars will get 1-2 second lead without fail.

 

[FenderBumper]

Wow. The #2 went from 16th to 27th on that stop.

 

[KevinWI]

Another caution. Looks like the two rookies got into it.

 

[#17D500winner]

1st fantasy league pick to the garage

 

[Joniki]

Did Danica wave at Ricky as she drove past him?

 

[FLRacingFan]

Very fortunate only one other car was involved in that, blowing a tire in the middle of the pack.

 

[KevinWI]

Did Danica wave at Ricky as she drove past him?

I'm surprised she didn't pull over and run over to see if she was okay. Because she can't control her womanly emotions. (joking)

LOL

 

[StandOnIt]

they jerked the rug out from under the 2 and the 22, I bet they are so off they are never going to get them right.

must be my lucky day I had him benched.

Didn't happen at Fontana...

 

[DeathsDoor]

Bobby is out sick with no one to replace him, I offered to get in the car for free.
