18 is pretty fast so far in practice.

I'm here at the race today, and I just happen to be standing in JWT's pit box, since they are using Clint Bowyer's pit box. Should I run and hide now?

And Bowyer wins the actual race...

1. Where's Reddit/Twitter/whatever when you need them:banghead::banghead:

They probably would have shown up in force if Dogecar was here, but it would have been nice if they voted because Truex got robbed.
 
Its getting cray cray now

EDIT WHERE THE F DID BOWYER COME FROM!!!
He had the second-fastest car in the first segment (after Biffle), and was the first car in line with four fresh tires for the second segment. The four cars in front of him all took two tires.
 
A driver I don't like wins Segment 1 and another driver I don't like gets the fan vote. Thanks a lot "fans", because a guy who actually had a competitive car to win the first 11 races doesn't deserve a spot in the all-star race. Screw the fan vote.
 
The end of this truck race is just... :banghead:

Caution with bairly 2 to go right after Jones gets around Kahne. If Erik doesn't win this...jimmies will be rustled.

EDIT: ...

...

:censored:ing Cup regulars!!! Lord let it be seen that Kahne's contract with Hendrick ends swiftly.

I gotta go to bed, I'm to jacked right now...

Jamie Dick was struck in the helmet by a piece of lead ballast that went through the windshield during the Xfinity practice. He was unharmed, but the car took a beating.

^This. Though admittedly, I wanted to see Chase race his way in alongside his teammates

EDIT: in relation to the above photo: As Kyle Petty famously said, "What the F""k was that!?!?

How the hell does a lead weight travel up high enough to do that? Holy hell.

I think he got unlucky with the bounce because he said he ran over it at speed thinking it was just a brake duct.
 
While its not as bad, I'm reminded of Felipe Massa's Helmet back in 2009 :sick:


Still, it just boggles my mind how something that small causes damage that bad.
