Stops coming up...these could decide the race here.

 

[Fathead]

She won't finish on the lead lap next week.

You are likely 100% correct.

 

[GhostWriter24]

What company did that Chevy commercial? Really great looking ad.

 

[TylerD]

I'm on the Bowyer bandwagon 100%.

 

[Vicious]

She could finish off the lead lap in every race and I would still be a fan. Started watching her in 2005 and I'm not going to stop now.

 

[B.K.]

Is that water on the camera? I hope it isn't going to start raining. I really want a 500 that can be run the entire distance without any issues.

 

[GhostWriter24]

Decent pit for Danica...she's still in this thing.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Oooh, Junior and Biffle both gave Danica a little love tap out of pit road.

 

[B.K.]

Oooh, Junior and Biffle both gave Danica a little love tap out of pit road.

No they didn't. They didn't even touch her.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

No they didn't. They didn't even touch her.

On second look, you're right. Damn close though.

 

[Fathead]

One of the Gibbs cars has this.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Oooh, Junior and Biffle both gave Danica a little love tap out of pit road.

She was going slow, and they're both trying to pass her while staying out of the racing line.

One of the Gibbs cars has this.

Kenseth. Hamlin will crash, Busch will eff up.

 

[anddo0]

No they didn't. They didn't even touch her.

They didn't touch her. But it looked pretty aggressive.

 

[Fathead]

Kenseth. Hamlin will crash, Busch will eff up.

If I had to put money on it, yes.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Oof, Edwards, Bayne, and Ragan all out.

 

[rangersfan414]

lol edwards wrecks again.

 

[B.K.]

Edwards can't get a break at Daytona this year.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

I only watched the last 30 laps of the nationwide race. Was the first part of that race single file??!

Wreck.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Scott Speed drove through that one.

 

[B.K.]

I only watched the last 30 laps of the nationwide race. Was the first part of that race single file??!

No. It was two car drafting the whole race.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Wreck.

I don't think so, but the rules package is completely different for the nationwide series. We're back to late 90s "nobody can pass" restrictor plate racing with the new cup cars.

 

[GhostWriter24]

Carl Edwards discusses why he's been having such a bad season:

[Juicy Bob]

Carl Edwards is a wanker anyway. Still think it's shocking he got away with that retaliation attempt at Atlanta that time.

 

[Cousteau]

Awful nice of Napcar to mix in some of the race in between the CommercialFest 500.

Awful.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Jesus, Mark Martin is in this thing? Go get 'em Grandpa!

 

[JetBlackPanda]

No. It was two car drafting the whole race.

Thanks guys. I really like what I saw yesterday up until the wreck at the end.

Today...zzzzzzz

 

[B.K.]

Mark Martin will never retire.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Restrictor plate racing was one of the few positives of the old car, to be honest. Bigger aero profile = more power needed to hit 200mph = more power allowed under the hood. The pair drafting was weird, but at least it was exciting.

It sucked everywhere else though. And it looked stupid.

Yeah, car wreckage flying into the stands is great for the sport.

 

[Dave_6]

Damn, sucks being a Ford fan as usual At least Biffle is still in it...

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Yeah, car wreckage flying into the stands is great for the sport.

Umm I agree with you. The racing at the end was good. Until the wreck.

Well I would trade great plate racing for the other tracks so if these Gen 6 cars race well on every other track I am excited.

 

[GhostWriter24]

Fuck me Dani in the middle =/

 

[Vicious]

No repeat for Kenseth.

 

[B.K.]

Kenseth's done.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Kenseth's engine is fucked, he's done.

Edit: looks like Busch too.

 

[Elfforkusu]

Kenseth down. Repeat, Kenseth is down!

This opens things up a lot. Who's left as the favorite? Danica might have the best car remaining...

 

[B.K.]

Kyle Busch, too.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Holy shit, Gibbs cars blowing up all over the place. Denny Hamlin must be pissing himself.

 

[Vicious]

Hell yeah. So long, Busch.

 

[B.K.]

Closing his engine shop is the biggest mistake Joe Gibbs ever made.

 

[Fathead]

I am the kiss of death. Lol.

 

[weekend_warrior]

Typical Toyota reliability.

 

[TylerD]

+2 positions for Bowyer!

 

[Cousteau]

Has to be some kind of record for commercials.

 

[Dave_6]

Good, two Toyotas out. Maybe the rest of them will do the same soon

 

[Vicious]

Is this your first time watching NASCAR? It's mostly commercials.

 

[Chris R]

Short pit as soon as the three gwc window opens is what I'd do...

 

[GhostWriter24]

I forsee someone doing something really, really stupid up front and Danica finishing top 3.

 

[Cousteau]

Is this your first time watching NASCAR? It's mostly commercials.

No.
They've ramped it up a notch today though.

And...commercial.
