2015 NASCAR Thread - And then there was 1

Johnson's long long gone!

 

[nascarfan1400]

Sat through this whole damned race just to see JJ win. Pssh

 

[GTPorsche]

Brett Moffit with an impressive debut.

 

[kolio]

GWC PLEASE!

 

[Suzumiya]

Yaaaas!

 

[nascarfan1400]

Where's Stenhouse when you really need him?

Brett Moffit with an impressive debut.

Not actually a debut. He was in 3 races last year in the #66 (though he did finish 22nd at Dover, which is great for that team).

Hadn't realized he raced last year.

 

[nascarfan1400]

At least it ended under green.

 

[Adamgp]

JJ won. I blame the Narwhals.

No Narwhals were seen during the making of that race.

Exactly. They were up to something...

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Just came here to say congrats to Jimmie Johnson and here's to a 7th championship for that team

 

[fortbo]

Am I the only JJ fan here?

 

[Leadfoot530]

Five years ago, I would have hated the fact of Jimmie winning a race. Now I'm all like:

"Meh, 'least it wasn't Penske."

 

[LancerEvo7]

I still can't stand seeing Johnson win. He's a great driver and I have nothing against him, it was just boring as all get out watching him dominate for 5 years.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

No Narwhals were seen during the making of that race.

Unless you count Joey Logano as one.

 

[Blitz24]

According to the grumblings in the media center, Atlanta is on the the decline and could be gone by 2020.

 

[iRevelationz]

To be fair, scheduling it for the last February/beginning March weekend probably doesn't help.

 

[GTPorsche]

Taking seats away from turn 3 helps with that as well.

Making the conspiracy championship vote right now. It's going to be Carl Edwards. New team for a driver that has been the best on a struggling team and goes to a new one. Harvick did the same last season and was on the GoodYear commercials. Now Edwards is. You heard it here first

They missed that by not calling the caution when his tire fell apart.

Kurt Busch begins process for reinstatement:

I still think NASCAR jumped the gun in suspending him, but I guess they had no choice.

Wait... is that about the track, or the city?

 

[GTPorsche]

SHR has just announced (unsurprisingly) that Regan Smith will be in the 41 again this weekend.

And in related news, Kurt Busch has applied for reinstatement.

 

[Blood Eagle]

Got 4 of my 6 free tickets to the Auto Club 400 today. This cool story had been brought to you by bro.

 

[GTPorsche]

The replacement drivers for the 54 in the NXS series are Denny Hamlin for 5 races, Erik Jones for 2, and Boris Said for 7.

So, I guess we now know what major team Boris had signed with in January.

 

[The Bman]

This isn't a joke. This isn't sarcasm. This is seriously going to be the name of the Kansas race in May;

Not even his first forray into NASCAR
