2014 NASCAR Thread

[GTPorsche]

Does anyone actually know why they had a fight in the first place?

I think Mears was blocking Ambrose, or something happened during a pitstop between the two cars. Didn't see the race.

 

[Chqr]

In sheer awe of this qualifying session.

 

[Gerarghini]

Silly FOX, Josh Wise is driving a Ford, not a Chevy .

 

[Jahgee]

 

[The Bman]

Brian Scott on the pole.

 

[MustangRyan]

RCR sweeps the top six in qualifying.

 

[Chqr]

Two wrecks in Nationwide so far. Twice ESPN cameramen messed up filming the crash live. Not ideal.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

RCR sweeped out in Nationwide.

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Amazing. Every. Single. Driver I thought would have a shot at this race( Bubba Wallace, Trevor Bayne, Kyle Larson) has been crashed out and we're not even 2/3rds of the way through. Un-be-lieveable.

Further fuels my joy that they won't be covering NASCAR anymore after 2014.

Further fuels my joy that they won't be covering NASCAR anymore after 2014.

But that joy will be squashed if I still don't have NBC Sports by next year.

 

[RACECAR]

I doubt they'll confine it solely to NBCSN. They'll likely show races on NBC as well.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Chad Boat has sunk.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Woah! hard hit for Clements and Blaney

 

[Furinkazen]

That was dumb #22.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

What in the world was Blaney trying to do?

 

[nascarfan1400]

What in the world was Blaney trying to do?

Tried to side draft as soon as he could, and I'll give the benefit of the doubt and say the air sucked him right into Sadler.

 

[RACECAR]

Come on Ryan, that was never gonna work.

 

[IforceV8]

I'm sure the people that actually invented SAFER barrier will be glad to know it was really NASCAR that lead the way.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Again, partly the air drove the car into it. Still not a good move, but he obviously didn't want to run into him purposely.

 

[nascarfan1400]

"No Tandem Drafting"

Lots and lots of guilty drivers there...

 

[Müle]

Only at Tallerdeger can that old hasbeen win.

lol

 

[iRevelationz]

Now if NASCAR is consistent (lol), the top four or so should be penalized. That was clearly tandem drafting.

 

[nascarfan1400]

I'm surprised he wasn't doing barrel rolls as many times as he's done that...

Well... The lead guys can't help it, the pushers should though.

 

[iRevelationz]

It was still tandems regardless. NASCAR said it wasn't allowed, yet it occurred through almost all of the last lap.

I know but the pushees can't help if there is a rule breaker behind them,

 

[Ganon83]

I don't know if I'm madder about the obvious tandem rule or Ragan being an idiot and blocking Cassill like that. That's how big ones happen, and it isn't like Ragan was going to magically find the speed to pass Sadler in the last mile.
Top four should be black flagged. (And no, I'm not saying that just so that Joe could pick up 2nd)
Oh, and I'm amazed Bayne ended up with a top 10 after everything

 

[The Bman]

No flyover? Just a tractor-trailer?

 

[Chqr]

Gotta go back to Talladega one day. Never been this excited for a NASCAR race for a while.

GREEN FLAG.
