2014 NASCAR Thread

Yes, but a few more breaks, and two races a week for certain periods. Some are OK, but Dover and Texas within 3-4 days.

I have more thoughts, but I'll put those where they should be...

 

[MustangRyan]

Kentucky/Atlanta, Pocono/Michigan, Bristol/Road Atlanta and Richmond/Talladega

Hey Brad, it would make a lot more sense to group those like this:

Kentucky/Michigan (Kentucky is halfway to Michigan, from Charlotte)
Richmond/Pocono (Again, halfway to the next track, from Charlotte)
Atlanta/Road Atlanta (this makes too much sense, right?)
Bristol/Talladega (The week of carnage, you know, if they would FIX BRISTOL).

Plus, all the first races in this group have lights already installed, where Pocono in his hypothetical Wednesday night slot does not.

 

[Fuzzy]

Time for some short track action in Richmond!

 

[Jahgee]

Bowyer wasting no time to prove what everyone knows about him

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Bowyer's head must still be on vacation.

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

I kno, right THE FIRST LAP. Come on Clint, at least show us you still have the brains to match that nice looking ride

 

[The Bman]

Larson went down on Bowyer. As much as I would love to bash Clint Bowyer again, this was most definitely Larson's fault.

 

[MustangRyan]

Larson's spotter isn't earning his check today. Clint's job is to race, and he was trying to make a pass.

 

[Jahgee]

If Clint Bowyer could just stop divebombing people at Short Tracks

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

So right

 

[MustangRyan]

If Clint Bowyer could just stop divebombing people at Short Tracks

I know you aren't talking about the Martinsville G-W-C a few years ago, where Ryan Newman shoved Bowyer into the inside of the 24/48 in turn 1.

Nope, but that's another example of it

 

[MustangRyan]

Actually, it wouldn't be.

 

[Furinkazen]

Calling it that Harvick didn't lap #40 on purpose to give Danica the wave around.

She'll get lapped eventually

 

[MustangRyan]

That's a given.

 

[Furinkazen]

Cole Whitt tries to set Richmond alight. Literally.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Goodyears on fire. That somehow isn't surprising.

 

[Furinkazen]

So every 50 laps can we expect wheels blowing up?

 

[Turbo_snail]

They said be careful of overheating tires, but not in that context.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

It's a tire blowout! Get your set of Goodyears at your local store!

 

[Furinkazen]

EDIT thought it was fantasy thread. ops:

 

[MustangRyan]

They are even having a fire sale on used tires!

 

[Turbo_snail]

Their tires, they are red hot value!

 

[The Bman]

These tire puns are putting pressure on Goodyear!

 

[MustangRyan]

It looks like another race where we are never going to see green flag pit stops.

 

[Furinkazen]

green flag pit stops.

Don't even suggest the blasphemy that such a travesty could happen in modern NASCAR.

 

[BKGlover]

Looks like Goodyear is making cuts.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

stream please?

 

[MustangRyan]

Green flag on lap 239, so we can expect to see another car's tire go up in flames around lap 295-300.

Edit: nailed it, lap 296.
