Racing on the road --- rain tires?

 

[Old Kid]

Should be interesting.

Racing on the road --- rain tires?

Yes, delicious! Rain wont last long though and its gonna be "when do we switch"

 

[StandOnIt]

If I read it right, they run off the new yellow part of the track it will be a complete stop. If they don't stop it's a pass thru. No mud racing

 

[Hendrick4ever]

I said it in another thread and I'll say it again: they're gonna wreck on Lap 1.

 

[rowdy3]

There’s no one here. Maybe 300.

 

[Spotter22]

Hell the track is gonna be dry before too long

I'm not sure how the visibility is from the stands in the rain. I'm guessing it isn't very good.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Good. Strategy.

they are already running 10 minutes behind..quit stalling and drop it.

I wouldnt imagine it would be a large crowd on a friday, with rain and the covid issues

i think green was scheduled for 7:44

 

[Hendrick4ever]

Good to see Carquest on the 04 truck.

 

[Spotter22]

Good. Strategy.

Gonne be lots of it. I expect Grala and some others to pit with 2 laps left in the stage

Trying to stream the race, thankfully I have multiple options, as the Fox Sports app is telling me the program has already ended.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Have the trucks ever raced on rain tires?

That app is a ****storm at times.

I bow in honor. Still green though.

 

[DanicaFreak]

what a shot with the wiper working like that.
When the brake light glows it looks like a red light district in the truck

 

[Hendrick4ever]

*Sip

 

[donthaveanickname]

Aaaaand we've got our first traffic jam.

 

[DanicaFreak]

[Mispeedway15]

Hahaha oh my god

 

[BobbyFord]

John Nemechek not afraid of the gas pedal.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

JHN checking out early.

 

[kkfan91]

Fun watching them struggle to put the power down in the wet

 

[BobbyFord]

I think Creed might have something to say before this is over.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Good run by Parker Chase. Up to tenth from 22nd starting position.

 

[Spotter22]

Charlie I take back what I said about Grala, that suckers is almost in the top 10!

JHN is over 2 seconds ahead now, lets see how his truck is when it dries up completely.

And how everyone else does under more familiar conditions.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

When I get home and see it’s wet

 

[DanicaFreak]

Well I may still be right, he is in 9th 37 seconds behind, I would definitely stop

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Caution for Roper's stalled truck.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

Yellow. Time to put on slicks?

 

[Spotter22]

scratch everything now lol

 

[Kiante]

Yellow. Time to put on slicks?

Nope, I think you're setting up for failure in this case.

A lot of spray is still coming off of the tires or gamble for a few laps before stage end and see what happens.

 

[Spotter22]

Yellow. Time to put on slicks?

You can but you will be on thin ice when you are in the infield
