The Duels at Daytona

[Charlie Spencer]

What the **** was that?

As weak as Busch Light.

What the **** was that?

The effect of too many Buschhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...

Legacy is looking a little different this year.

New avatar? Nice.

This is just downright pitiful. The cars looks like they are barely moving. You can see the cars visibly being slower.

NASCAR is the only body that I think tries their best to make their product worse. Heck 10 years ago the Duels would've been over 20 minutes ago. We're barely halfway through Duel 2.

This is sad for Daytona. Daytona is meant for speed, not going around like you're on a Sunday drive. The drivers and cars look too comfortable, Daytona isn't supposed to be comfortable.

35 mph slower per lap since 1986 and 1987 pre restrictor plates. I'm not even asking for that. But Daytona should be 195 - 205 mph lap times. In the very least Daytona should be low 190s in a draft. This is just pitiful.

Johnson thought he was running out of gas and pitted by himself. He was running good but he'll need a caution to catch back up.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Entire inside line pits.

See you Sunday!

Hamlin gonna Hamlin!

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Denny getting his pit road speeding penalty dialed in for the season

 

[HoneyBadger]

Denny Hamlin getting an early start on those speeding penalties.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Denny in midseason form…a two-for-one on pit road.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Well, that happened.

 

[HoneyBadger]

Thank God they paved over the grass.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Buescher's fault. Slinky effect.

 

[kkfan91]

Ford going full Toyota

 

[Kiante]

Buescher's fault

100%.

 

[Smoke20]

See you Sunday!

Not with this product. Even now, with the race on the line, they should be pushing 200 - 205 mph and they're barely getting to 185 - 192 mph. Makes me glad I didn't pay the $200 to make the hour trip over on Sunday. At least Formula 1 is starting soon as well, read speed and performance there.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

I have to put that on the leaders playing tag.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

The Fords should have all pitted together instead of splitting up like that.

 

[StandOnIt]

Bowman was able to scrub a lot of speed off before he hit.

 

[AdoubleU24]

These guys gotta start taking care of eachother in these races. It's been so bad the last couple years. Sunday, have at it (within reason of course).

 

[HoneyBadger]

Corey Lajoie really gonna make it in.

 

[KTMLew01]

Bowman was able to scrub a lot of speed off before he hit.

My initial thought was he should have released the brake to try to steer away from the wall but probably would have resulted in a flat drivers side impact. Not good at any speed.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

White Flag

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

I think Jones got it!

Big wreck at the finish.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

And….Larson gets into a wreck at a super speedway. Absolute clockwork

 

[PeopleAreStrange]

Do these announcers not realize it finished under yellow?!

 

[HoneyBadger]

Toyota 3 for 3 on the weekend so far.

@Revman

 

[HoneyBadger]

Hate that for Alfredo. He tried his hardest, but Corey Lajoie had too much protection from the Ford camp.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Do these announcers not realize it finished under yellow?!

Took them a while.

 

[Smoke20]

Do these announcers not realize it finished under yellow?!

Again so dumb. The wreck is behind the leaders. There's no risk of letting the leaders race to the checkered flag. So stupid.

 

[KTMLew01]

Took them a while.

Nascar still looking at film.

 

[HoneyBadger]

LOL they threw that 18 feet from the checkered flag.

 

[AdoubleU24]

Lmao. Joey, it's gonna be OK bro I promise. Go cuddle your cup trophy

 

[HoneyBadger]

The Mark Martin fan in me is RAGING.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Ha ha ha omg. That’s embarrassing. How do you let Jones get out of the car and celebrate like that
