2015 NASCAR Thread - And then there was 1

[GTRacer22]

That is a huge chunk that came out of the 1's tire. Wow.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Ooof! Gilliland's gonna feel that in the morning.

 

[GTRacer22]

That was a hard hit. Damn.

Brad K proves you can drift through a corner in NASCAR.

 

[GTRacer22]

Larry Mac just explained that locking up the front tires up under braking wears out the tayre.

Ragan crash! Ragan smash!

Into Jersey barriers I see (basically solid concrete walls that you see in road construction)

Got to love/hate DW on the telecast mimicking Scott Goodyear with all of the "Excuse me, coming through" quips he's made today...

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

With Kurt going off, there went the last hope for anyone beating Johnson.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Was hoping for a fake debris caution but we got a real one.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Well that's a new one.

 

[LancerEvo7]

Johnson's gonna get #rekt on the restart.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Holy moley! Two things I wasn't expecting - that whole tire assembly rolling out like that and just about everyone pitting.

 

[nascarfan1400]

Oh god. Stenhouse is in the top 5, on poor tires

 

[RACECAR]

Oh god. Stenhouse is in the top 5, on poor tires

Oh Lawd.

"Casey Mears got off the track a thousand feet before the start finish line! Why does Jimmie Johnson/Chad Knaus want them to sweep to turn one!"

 

[LancerEvo7]

83 got wrecked by a track truck

And we find out just how lucky Kurt got with this caution. Not only did he have grass in the grille, but also had a right rear Tire going down.

Gentleman, prepare your tums.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Oh god. Stenhouse is in the top 5, on poor tires

But can he top Dibenedetto's folly on pit road? We'll find out soon enough!

 

[LancerEvo7]

Phew, I was afraid I was going to watch a race where Danica didn't spin.

 

[nascarfan1400]

I can sense an amazing finish coming on

 

[Michelin]

YES KYLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

One of the few times I'll actually applaud a Kyle Busch victory. 👍 *




* One time only

 

[nascarfan1400]

Awesome race!!

So cool seeing Tony running up in the top 5 for a lot of the race, and seeing Kyle make a comeback... Perhaps the best race of 2015 so far. Busch 1-2!

 

[RACECAR]

Hell Yes, that was awesome. I don't think I remember wanting Kyle to win as much as I did today. And just to make it even better, his brother finishes right behind 👍

 

[nascarfan1400]

Lol Dogecar cameo in the Jeff Gordon interview.

 

[GTRacer22]

Exciting finish, would've preferred Kurt over Kyle though.

 

[Blood Eagle]

Hell yeah, Kyle! That's a bad dude right there.
