Truck RACE thread --- Atlanta

[DaleJrFan2003]

Imagine dominating the first half of a race just to run out of fuel right before the end of Stage 2. Yikes!

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

This race is awesome. If only we could have plate racing like this at all times. Somehow Michigan and Atlanta have become our best tracks

I’m biased of course, but Michigan sometimes contends for my favorite track.

Has NASCAR finally learned some restraint with the yellow?

 

[Brentford]

Haven’t even had any natural cautions a we still extremely close to the time limit. If we get “The Big One”, no way we make it to the end.

 

[StandOnIt]

It woke Atlanta up. They were having a problem filling it half way before the reconfig.

 

[Spotter22]

Im sorry I said 98 I meant the 99 of Rhodes

No sweat from my side. Rhodes is a weapon, glad he is out of the front.

Friesen in a black truck instead of blue is throwing me off.

Funny how that happens when they have another scheduled race after this one.

Nah, they were pretty thoughtful last week too. Maybe someone watched some IMSA races?

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

I’m shocked the trucks at Atlanta have ran this clean so far.

Delighted.

Clock is counting down.

This sucks, if it weren't for O'Reilly pre-race ceremonies they'd easily be able to go the distance.

And odds are the basketball games will run over anyway. Stiil, props for making the decision at the start of the race.

 

[Brentford]

Is this a first for this rule?? I of course remember coming into affect when daylight was about to end, but never for this kind of scenario.

So if there’s a big wreck in the next five minutes that causes a red flag, will they eventually do a two lap shootout, or will that be the end of the race?

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Ah, I see; FS1 has to clear its decks for basketball.

This is CW, not FOX. They won't extend their broadcast window for O'Reilly.

No overtime.

The race ends at 4:20. Period.

Says FS1 in the bottom right of my TV

 

[HoneyBadger]

If it's a timed race, why no clock?

 

[HoneyBadger]

I'm saying, CW is the reason for the time limit, not FOX. FOX would stick with this race to the end. CW is not willing to extend its window for O'Reilly.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Not Shrub, please.

 

[Brentford]

Yeah, Fox has multiple ways to continue the race, either on alternate channels or their app. It’s all because CW with the limit.

 

[kkfan91]

This is gonna end in a huge wreck

 

[Brentford]

Craftsman 20 to go…accept it’s not actually 20 to go. Lol.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Did Rhodes pass below the line?

 

[Efisher131]

This is freaking awesome

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Guys passing without needing help.

 

[HoneyBadger]

"We're watching the clock."

Who is we, Jamie?

 

[HoneyBadger]

The most aggressive driver in NASCAR who always goes for it did nothing but play defense for Kyle Busch.

 

[kkfan91]

Blah Shrub

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Who lost a tire at the line?

 

[StandOnIt]

 

[DaleJrFan2003]

That was great!

 

[Blaze]

Great racing, but damn ain't who I wanted to win.

 

[donthaveanickname]

It's always kinda underwhelming when KDB wins a truck race but that was fun to watch.

 

[Hawaii808]

Rowdy Nation take a bow

 

[Efisher131]

That was great racing
