Will Kasey Kahne ever get the lucky dog? He's been a lap down since the first set of pit stops, some 240 laps ago.

He is eternally unlucky .

"That AirForce car is flying a little squirrelly-whirly there!" Lolwut

 

[MustangRyan]

He is eternally unlucky .

He's in the free pass spot right now, so there won't be a caution for the rest of the race.... unless he's it.

Not sure why almost nobody has taken the wave around considering the numerous cautions within laps of pitstops. I just dont get it.

If everyone on the lead lap doesn't pit, there is no ability to take the wave-around. With someone seemingly staying out each time (I'm looking at you, Brad Keselowski...), the cars a lap down keep getting trapped. At that point, they might as well go ahead and pit, since there is zero advantage to staying out. The one time a lot of cars did take the wave-around, there was a long green flag run, and 90% of them had to pit before the next caution flew. That put most of them 2 laps down instead of 1 lap down.

Of course, they were able to take the wave-around to get back to 1 lap down.

Looks like Saturday night dirt track racing with all the speedy dry on the cars.

 

[MustangRyan]

The Ford guys are all hoping for a fuel-mileage win tonight.

Kenseth eating away at JJs lead.

Kenseth eating away at JJs lead.

Jeff Gordon was over 8 seconds down after the pit stops, and now he's less than 3. Don't count him out.

The back spasms are causing his right foot to lock in the forward position. Maybe he should have back spasms more often.

 

[Cale]

Damn. Brad had a loose wheel.

Kenseth is 2nd and losing ground on Johnson. Highly doubt anyone not named Johnson will win.

Shaping up to be a great finish

 

[Blitz24]

Right now Edwards is leading and Menard, Gordon and Kenseth are the top 4. If Edwards doesn't have to pit and doesn't need to save a large amount of fuel he could win this.

 

[The Bman]

Caution...

Kenseth is 2nd and losing ground on Johnson. Highly doubt anyone not named Johnson will win.

Well they took 2 tires, but now the caution came out so it's gonna screw them.

BK Racing: ruining great finishes since 2012.

Jeff is going to get eaten alive on the restart.

Jeff is going to get eaten alive on the restart.

DW, talking about Jeff, just echoed that: "He's getting eaten up alive by everybody."

 

[Cale]

Please caution

 

[MustangRyan]

Please caution

Matt and Jimmie tried to oblige you going into turn 3.

 

[Cale]

I know. I was hoping it's last longer so Harvick could get up to them.

 

[Blitz24]

Johnson has the race locked up.

 

[The Bman]

Kenseth is 2nd and losing ground on Johnson. Highly doubt anyone not named Johnson will win.

Told everyone.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Ugh 48 in the chase

 

[The Bman]

Team 48 should have 13 championships by now.
