Truck Race thread --- Knoxville

[Old Kid]

A better question to ask is who WASN'T involved in that crash

At least it culled the herd and increased odds for an eventual finish.

 

[antman12]

Lol Sheldon.

Lol Sheldon.

I like that kid a lot.

I'm just saying, this race is EXACTLY what NASCAR fans wanted when the Eldora race was first announced.

This sport needs to figure out what it wants to be.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

And here we go again.

 

[FLRacingFan]

It’s going to be tight getting this one wrapped up before the Nationals roll around next month.

 

[Kiante]

I think Bristol dirt is more than enough.

One dirt race a year is enough, Knoxville is a cool concept, however without the second lane... Its a bit of a mess.

Do I like the idea of a one-lane dirt track in trucks? Yes, but I feel as if its enough to keep the novelity with Bristol.

Kraus has been a real punk

 

[gnomesayin]

Kraus managed to cause some more carnage. Strickler had run a pretty clean race and was in position to fare the best of the ringers.

I mean its only been a hour in a half, about the usual time a truck race runs.

Just the pace has slowed down significantly.

I disagree, I don't recall people wanting a flatout demo derby. People want dirt racing but this isn't showcasing dirt racing, this is just a ****show.

 

[BobbyFord]

Creed was right.

 

[cheesepuffs]

The truck series, in a past life, used to be my favorite of the top three divisions.

Sigh.

These aren’t dirt cars.

FYI, we're at to 2.5 hours, not 1.5. Started shortly after 8:00 PM Central.

Nice EL&P reference.

 

[DewChaser988]

Not only is the race unwatchable, just look at the exorbitant concession prices

$4 for a HOT DOG?! WHAT THE **** ARE THEY MADE FROM?! KOBE BEEF?!

 

[DewChaser988]

These aren’t dirt cars.

Nope

I was just going off of the elapsed time given.

Forgotten about all the pre-race festivites and everything else.

 

[BobbyFord]

Is this the last GWC?

 

[Old Kid]

These aren’t dirt cars.

They would be if they'd take the windshields out.

 

[antman12]

WTH is going on??

 

[cheesepuffs]

These aren’t dirt cars.

Thank you for the valuable enlightenment. I thought were watching winged sprints out there.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Is this the last GWC?

More than likely not.

 

[Kiante]

Guys are going to run out of fuel at this rate.

 

[Kiante]

Lord have mercy.

Strange. The main event was green at 8:05 Central. The heats started 4.5 hours ago.

[BobbyFord]

Someone needs to drive that Kraus kid through the fence

 

[gnomesayin]

This is almost crossing over into being uniquely memorable, so bad it's good territory.

 

[DewChaser988]

The entire series' officiating needs to be fired after not just tonight but also what happened at Charlotte

 

[AdoubleU24]

Safe to say the dirt races need different overtime rules? Lol I walked out of the room 35 mins ago, come back, and they're still trying to finish this nonsense.

 

[Spotter22]

cant wait to see all the nascar is to blame comments

They stop the timer for the stage breaks without live pit stops I think. Plus the long red.

 

[Kiante]

I think this might be a one-and-done.

Iowa Speedway tripleheader?
