2014 NASCAR Thread

I just think it's become the cool and trendy thing to do to openly bash the guy, tis all.

Like how I got tired of the Kyle Busch hate. I don't like him, but I don't insult him every chance I get.

Well hell, why didn't you just say that to begin with? Would've definately understood you better and that mental image wouldn't given me brain damage.

I do agree about the trend to just open hate a driver though, something I myself have gotten tired of. I just don't have the energy or the sanity to do it anymore.

If he intentionally takes someone out, it will be a mosh pit. If he causes the bit one by fighting to get a lap back despite being multiple laps down like he did last time, it will be a mosh pit. But my guess is that nobody will freak out if he starts it by being contacted by someone else since that is just a typical restrictor plate race accident.

Nobody here is bashing him for his abilities. He's getting flack for his decision making. If he would have confronted Denny and/or Matt in the pits out of his car, this wouldn't have been as big of a deal even if the fight happened. That being said, I can't see any of the four (especially him or Stewart) make an utterly boneheaded decision because NASCAR won't be too nice to any of them if they start stuff.

Brad isn't going to have many friends out there. He has Logano and Blaney in the 12, both of whom I'm sure are on marching orders to get the 2 through Dega as they both have nothing to lose, but I'd be shocked if anybody else wants to work with him on Sunday to begin with.

Friends have nothing to do with it, if he has a fast car just about anyone will hook up with him to get or stay up front...at least until the 4th corner of the last lap.

At Talladega, you wait for the fifth corner.

The Dogecar will be making a return at Talledega this weekend.

I dare someone to find all three things wrong with that pic. One of them should be painfully obvious.

Attempt #1
1. Chevy bowties on window banner
2. No Fusion logo below grill
3. Looks like it was made on a Toyota body? Front end on the side views looks too sharp

I feels stupid now. The livery is supposed to be going on this weekend though.

Not enough Shiba?

Raikkonen may come back to NASCAR for a few races.

Hopefully he waits until Stewart retires

Pretty sure he still wants to do Daytona, Indy and Le Mans all in the same year.

Milka Duno
Talladega
Truck race
Now

She's starting last, but anything can happen on lap 1...

 

[nascarfan1400]

Airborne Vehicle Count: 1

 

[Johnny1996]

First caution out with Mason Mingus getting airborne.

EDIT: Face full of tree.

 

[Furinkazen]

~Switches NASCAR on~
~Sees airbourne wreck~

Yup, it is Talladega weekend alright.

 

[nascarfan1400]

The first this weekend, only on lap 10/282

 

[GTPorsche]

Milka has led this race due to the caution. Don't know if she's still in the lead but restart is coming up.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Looks like bare Bon ain't gonna work today.

 

[AnthonyD1993]

I just turned on the race. Other than the caution, how much did I miss?

 

[Jahgee]

Oh ****!

He said he's OK on the radio

 

[AnthonyD1993]

That was a vicious hit.

 

[Johnny1996]

Two hard as hell hits, the hardest I've seen the second half of the season yet, but glad as hell that Kennedy's out of the truck and walking under his own power. Seeing the latter is a heck of a relief.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Airborne Vehicle Count: 2

 

[Johnny1996]

Assuming that we'll make it green these last 9 to 11 laps, strap down the big TV. She's gonna go for a ride.

EDIT: Spin, but unbelievably under five trucks involved and no wall contact.

 

[Furinkazen]

GWC time...

 

[nascarfan1400]

Prediction- they all crash, Jennifer Jo Cobb Wins.

<3 that to happen.

 

[Johnny1996]

Well guys, here we go. GCW time, as @Furinkazen pointed out, and mayhem quite possibly right around the corner.
