Truck RACE thread --- Darlington

Getting this up because I may not make it back from lunch with brother and SIL. Love his smoked brisket.

 

[harkin]

Smoked brisket sounds great.

Out here - (West coast) - Pancakes pre-truck and chicken tacos for the cup finish.

Hope yesterday’s epic race didn’t set my hopes for today too high.

Darlington baby!

Biffle Bayne Ragan we've got some vets in this one

 

[Brentford]

Biffle Bayne Ragan we've got some vets in this one

I'm excited to see how they do. Hopefully Bayne doesn't blow his chance with a dumb mistake.

Those GMS trucks are looking great!

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Black bean and sweet potato enchiladas. Sounds like Tex-Mex is a theme today.

The Truck series at Darlington is usually a pretty good race, but yesterday's Xfinity left this one some BIG shoes to fill.

 

[StandOnIt]

Boy those trucks are laying on the ground today

 

[harkin]

Ankrum going for a pass before entering turn 1.......

That 44 truck is a wayyyyyy more accurate Yarborough/Hardees throwback than the nonsense Denny drove yesterday

3 fans have already made it in

 

[Charlie Spencer]

That Wood Bros. red-white-gold could make a moped look fast.

 

[Tony_K]

Agreed on the Hardees throwback truck being way better than Hamlin's car. Odd they would show a dark yellow diecast car to compare with the Holly Farms throwback. I remember the old Ford looking exactly like the truck today. A butter yellow.

Daym, Hill gave it hell trying to win stage one

Denny Hamlin impersonation.

 

[Turtle84]

wouldn't mind if the 19 ran the Hornaday scheme permanently

 

[Turtle84]

Cram got Crammed.

 

[donthaveanickname]

David Ragan racing his son.
Oh Mikey, LMAO.

 

[Kiante]

Where did Zane come from there?

What a move by him.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Lessard has been getting better lately.

 

[Kiante]

Lessard has been getting better lately.

He has, its good to see him wrapping his head around these trucks.

 

[Kiante]

Good lord Sheldon.

 

[Turtle84]

Sorry but the Creed throwback is an example of what not to do, why in the world would you not change your colors if you're trying to emulate the Jimmie Johnson offroad scheme to match it, doesn't make any sense.

Ankrum yellow banana goes around, good job not hitting anything tho

 

[harkin]

Zane Smith with the stripe.....looks like courtesy Ankrum?

 

[Kiante]

Oof:



Sheesh.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

So Johnny's happy with the truck?

 

[donthaveanickname]

Oof:



Sheesh.

His head is probably deep red and the smoke is coming out of his ears.

My favorite truck in the field today, love that look.

 

[Kiante]

So Johnny's happy with the truck?

He just said the truck is handling a bit better, he's certainly calmed down on his radio.

We all know Johnny is a bit emotional.

 

[Turtle84]

Kraus is pushing the limit of his truck, good to see.

Ragan having the best run of the vets.

 

[Kiante]

Now Sauter admitted he's going to be an a**hole next week.

Oh boi.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Now Sauter admitted he's going to be an a**hole next week.

Oh boi.

That's something new? LOL

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Hill must have taken two at that stop, and I don't mean tires.

 

[Turtle84]

Hill was fortunate to not get dumped by Moffitt off that restart

 

[Kiante]

That's something new? LOL

Now that you mention it.

No ma'am, it's not out of the ordinary...lol.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Johnny pitting with 9 to go. That will really make his weekend.

EDIT and behind the wall.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Smith is dropping like a rock.
Now he's coming in.
