Open at the green.
Have a good friend at the track --- she says it's HOT! But then, she's from Montana and
not used to the heat/humidity.

Let's get to the racing!

 

[REBS31]

Really disappointed they didn’t invite Newman to join the booth today, I think he would have done great in the spot next to Bowyer

 

[StandOnIt]

200 laps, Stages 45-45-110

Plan for Cassill in the 89 is likely to run just the first stage (Morgan typically runs for as long as he can on the tires he has funding for).

 

[StandOnIt]

that's one way to slow down the 20 car.

 

[machinistman3]

You above water SOI?

 

[machinistman3]

Tulsa and Muskogee getting hammered

 

[machinistman3]

Payback coming for Custer

 

[StandOnIt]

yeah, alot of my place is flooded I made a bit of a clip. nothing like the folks downstream. Clean up aisle three

 

[StandOnIt]

Bell gets out front, he will be gone

 

[machinistman3]

Wow ! Here in the NW part of BA we are fine. I feel horrible for the whole state right now. If it’s not tornadoes it’s flooding. Lived here my whole life and don’t remember anything this crazy even 86.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Keep your powder dry, SOI

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Bell gets out front, he will be gone

Yep, I believe that, too.

 

[AdoubleU24]

These guys in the pits need to speak up

 

[StandOnIt]

you never can hear Blaney, soft spoken

 

[Kiante]

Glad you're okay @StandOnIt

Two guys that need to show form today. Burton and Earnhardt for me, Jeb especially with the form Truex had in that 8 car. Zane Smith had been solid in the car as well. I'd like to see Jeb mix it up a bit in the top 10.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Bell wins stage one.

 

[donthaveanickname]

This could become a real fun race in the remaining 150 laps.

 

[Kiante]

Brandon Brown once again sneaking into the top 15. Interesting that they are keeping up even with a lack of funding compared to most other teams.

Looks like Custer ran over that debris, yikes.

 

[StandOnIt]

that's what happens when they are asleep and don't throw the caution.

 

[StandOnIt]

but they can spot an uncontrolled tire from a mile away.

 

[Kiante]

Knaus is going to be the replacement for Larry Mac when the time comes IMO.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Bell really got loose as a goose there. Good save.

 

[Kiante]

Code brown.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Also good to see some off-throttle-time on an 1.5 mile track.
And how Bell didn't spin out is beyond me

 

[StandOnIt]

Custer from 20th to 7th. I think the car is pretty good.

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Those glasses make Harvick look like a dork

Brown, Sieg, Gaulding - we've got a few midfield teams lighting it up lately.

 

[StandOnIt]

I wanna see Jones try to pass Reddick.

 

[StandOnIt]

Better safe than sorry I guess, but Custer was doing pretty good, so they bring him in with 20 laps to go and bury him in the back?

 

[Kiante]

John Hunter looks like he has hit on something, he's looking pretty quick atm.

Bowyer brings up a valid point, its only a matter of time until composite bodies make it to the cup level. NASCAR should be looser with allowing teams to research and develop what they want to improve the bodies. It would be cool to see the differences between the manufacturers.

 

[StandOnIt]

Cup need composite bodies badly. So do the trucks.

Learning something new every day, thanks to R-F.

I think lately with the package and all Nascar is taking over the aero. The teams have had it long enough. There are sensors built into those Xfinity bodies to get rid of the tampering

 

[Kiante]

That was a heavy hit.

Brandon Jones as well, JGR is imploding atm. Lets see of they can recover.

 

[mkline]

Bye Bell

 

[RFK-PensekeFan]

Wow both Bell and Jones have right fronts go down two laps from the end of the stage. Though break for JGR.

And Bell's tire just shredded. His day's over

 

[donthaveanickname]

Two JGR cars in one lap..

 

[StandOnIt]

Custer made it back to 7th again..had a little help this time.
