2014 NASCAR Thread

Somewhat, yes.

 

[Spacegoat]

Pretty bummed to not see Ryan make it, sucks for him.

Same. Real pleased to see Bowman and Whitt make it in though. 👍

I guess this is where I make my debut to this thread.

From here until mid-November, looks like NASCAR has you covered for another season of racing. The fun all begins tonight with NASCAR Trucks at Daytona under the lights. Nationwide begins their tour of duty tomorrow. And of course, that race called the Daytona 500 kicks off the Cup campaign on Sunday.

No matter who your favorite driver(s) or team(s) are, good luck to all teams and drivers all season long across all levels of NASCAR racing. Race hard, have fun, and be safe.

No.

No.

Yes.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Yes.

Maybe?

 

[Bo]

I'll settle at that, yeah

Good.

Truck race predictions? Race-wise, not just winner.s.

 

[MustangRyan]

There will be a 15+ truck accident, probably before the first green-flag pit stop. There are just too many rookie drivers for it to not happen.

Actually, kligerman said they were holding 3-4 wide in practice.

Absolutely loving this qualifying format in Nationwide!

The traditional qualifying & Duels, with owners points and past champions nonsense has to end. Last night was one of the most confusing events I've ever seen. WHY was Dillon and Truex in the damned race if they already had starting positions locked. If 15th was the "cut off point" and my boy KB had a terrible race, WHY is he in the 500!!! It's just silliness.

Where are you watching it??

And it's not that hard to understand...?

Nationwide is on ESPN2, rain...

 

[nascarfan1400]

Thanks.

Ugh I hate ESPN so much...

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Red Barchetta!!!

 

[nascarfan1400]

Good to see Sadler doing well.


Kwawznetski leading as of rain delay.

 

[GTPorsche]

Bobby Gerhart is having qualifying times thrown out everywhere during these speedweeks.

 

[nascarfan1400]

ESPN has temporarily ended their broadcast.

 

[Furinkazen]

When is the Truck Race?

 

[GTPorsche]

The broadcast was suppose to be finished by now anyway.

@Furinkazen The start is scheduled for 5 hours from this post.

 

[nascarfan1400]

So glad they went back to the supertruck era!

Qualifying has resumed once again, but not on TV apparently...

Edit: They finished the 1st session and it began to rain again. Starting grid is set by that session. Pole goes to Dylan K. and Turner Scott Motorsports takes top 3 spots.

 

[Johnny1996]

Storms about to go through Daytona, if I heard right.

 

[CodeRedR51]

If you have 15 minutes to spare, watch this. I agree with him 100%.

 

[GTPorsche]

Start of the truck race has been bumped up again.

It is now 2 hours and 10 minutes from the time of this post.

 

[BKGlover]

YES! To add to this, if you have a chance to watch a race in person, phony flags aside it can be great watching ALL the race, not the follow-the-leader you get with the TV crews. Thanks for posting that.

 

[GTPorsche]

Definitely. Watching racing in person is better than on TV.
