2014 NASCAR Thread

Gordon will fall a lap down. They have no idea what they are doing. He used to be decent at adjusting the cars, now they cannot do it for the life of them. The run last week was an aberration, not signs for things to come.

Gordon was doomed the second I selected him for Fantasy NASCAR.

Then from a Gordon fan perspective, you're the most disliked person after Clint Bowyer.

He selected two other drivers right?
Kligerman and Keselowski?

Speaking of Bowyer that was a great move, I've never seen someone on the button so ready to attack as he was.

EDIT
Well guess Bowyer isn't winning now, crew isn't clutch players.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

This may be the only time I actually want Kurt Busch to win. I probably jinxed him by saying that.

 

[Jahgee]

My guess is Caution at 4 laps to go or later

Ditto.

 

[Blitz24]

No caution. Kurt Busch with the victory and nearly crashes into Stewart.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Ditto.

Glad he won and I probably will never say that in my life again. Glad Junior finished third after a couple of crummy races. Too bad for Bowyer that easily could have been him.

I'm one more in the actually wanting Kurt to win for the first time ever, Keselowski must be fuming right now.

The replay shows contact.

Exactly that's what makes me laugh at this more, because BK is probably like "of course he'd win". Man I'd love to laugh and see his reaction in person.

Alright guys, I only saw the last 25 laps, and that was a good win for Kurt, but what's the deal with the green window banners?

Something to do with NASCAR's "green initiative", exactly what that means is beyond me.

I think it is the same thing as they were doing in F1 as teams were cutting CO2 emissions and what not.

Kinda figured, but wasn't sure.

Either that or it was a way to promote the new weather season.

 

[MustangRyan]

GREAT race to watch in person today. Kurt got a lot of cheers for the final pass and the win.

 

[RACECAR]

I'm one more in the actually wanting Kurt to win for the first time ever, Keselowski must be fuming right now.

I was rooting for him to win on that final restart. Now I really want to see Keseloski's reaction after he drove like a moron today trying to crash Kurt.

 

[-Fred-]

I still don't think Busch did anything wrong on pitlane, Keselowski and Kahne got together and he didn't have anywhere to go... Week in, week out, Keselowski's becoming more and more of a little bitch.

 

[Johnny1996]

Week in, week out, Keselowski's becoming more and more of a little bitch.

Agreed.

I left part of the quote out since I didn't see it, and have nothing to say about it.

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Ironically, As I watched him outrun Johnson, I kinda regretted picking him as a sleeper for the championship
Otherwise, Kezza must be fuming. Man, if I had a camera near him, I would be laughing all night

 

[MustangRyan]

Jennifer Joe Cobb is a rolling chicane in the truck race.

True LOL. Can someone please explain to me why there are older style, dirt slow trucks in everyone's way?

And that is why we're happy that Kurt won

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

For The most part. I was pulling for Johnson

 

[RACECAR]

Did I seriously just see someone in last year's Truck? What is this, ARCA?

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

I realized this too, NASCAR is being weird again. (see post 2753)

 

[MustangRyan]

Looks like at least two people are in old Ram trucks, Cobb included.

There also appear to be about half of the Chevy teams running older looking Silverado noses.

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Yeah. Its annoying, but also fascinating how NASCAR lets teams (the poor ones in this case) get away with this.
Kinda like in Nationwide how there are still ex-Penske Dodge Challengers running around

Well, those are still current gen Nationwide COTs so even with no official support from Dodge (and no changes at the moment apart from Chevy just putting a new Camaro nose on their car), those are actually ok just being slower then most of the field. Whereas these are new Gen Trucks and running among them are these outdated trucks, which kinda stand out a lot more.
