As long as they have progressive banking, the top line will always be faster. Go back to a linear 36° banking across the turns, and then you'll get the old Bristol racing back again.

Rowdy with the mic drop

Shout out to Jeff with the Jay Z

Grade A acting from Brad in that ad:
"Heck Yeah"

Intro songs for drivers that they selected for tonight:

I approve of Ryan Blaney's and Matt Kenseth's choices.

Casey Mears wins the LOL Award for tonight!

 

[Vert4848]

Great. A delayed start...

 

[GTFan24]

And of course it 🤬 rains!!

 

[AnthonyD1993]

One does not simply get tired of hearing Ken Squier's voice. NBC needs to do more promos with him.

 

[RedTailBoa]

While he hasn't won, he has been consistent this year and is 13th in points.



Seriously? What have you been watching?

RCR Cars are 11th, 13th & 22nd
BK's cars are 30th and 36th
FR's are 29th and 31st.

So again, you would appear to have had your hands over your ears going LALALALALALA the past few years.

And ZERO wins. I cant even remember, nor do I care to look up the last time an RCR car won a race

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Get the rain tires and have them race on the streets outside the racetrack. Problem solved.

 

[Vert4848]

I love those NASCAR Coca-Cola commercials.

 

[Jahgee]

I love the Bristol highlights package

 

[GTFan24]

That Ward interview always gets me laughing hard

I think Michael McDowell picking a song Ice Cream Trucks use is funnier, but whatever.

 

[Vert4848]

Well, they're getting in the cars. Looks like they will start in a few minutes.

As much as I dislike Brad, his song choice was excellent. Same for Tony and Regan.

I didn't even see that at first!

FIVE RED LIGHTS AND AWAY...
Wait, wrong series.

Elliot's flying!!!

 

[Jahgee]

Glad we got that little rock instrumental twice

 

[Jahgee]

 

[GTFan24]

🤬!!!!

 

[Vert4848]

And... red flag. God must hate NASCAR or something.

 

[Leadfoot530]

I wonder if the brainiack that decided to put resin on the track had the issue of RAIN ever cross his mind?

Would it wash away? Light sprinkle might not affect it too much, but a downpour might have some serious downsides.

 

[GTFan24]

First watercooler Dale, now hipster dale

 

[Dylan]

Since the start, Jimmie Johnson has lost 13 spots, and Kyle Larson has gained 13 spots.

And I'm the only one in my league with Larson on their roster so yay me!

 

[Vert4848]

Hope this storm doesn't last too long.
