Let's hope Jeff Gordon's "bad luck saga" can end tonight with a win (at the very least a top 5).

You know, at this point, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if he's leading tonight, and a black hole appears out of nowhere. He, and only he drives straight into it, never to be seen again.

Could happen...

Given who won F1 and Indy, tonight's winner will be someone I don't care much for.

I like Mark Webber. It's Vettel I don't care about.. because he wins too much.

Could happen...

With his luck, the forecast calls for a singularity 0.001 seconds before he wins.
Tonight's forecast, 99% chance for dark matter.

Yes, lets soak pit road and have top fuel dragsters do burnouts down it.

 

[MustangManiac]

Anybody know what time the actual race is going to start?

 

[GTPorsche]

Jayski's race info page lists green flag at approximately 6:19pm EST.

Anybody know what time the actual race is going to start?

When they get a better idea of when it will rain.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Predictions:

1. Gordon will finish in the 30s.
2. Danica will DNF.
3. Johnson or Kyle will win the 600.

 

[MustangManiac]

Fords 1st - 3rd yessss!

This must be a special day for a Charlotte race.

10 laps in. Still 43 runners.

 

[ICEYOU]

Looks like Gordon's finally found some speed, but I'm not about to get my hopes up.

 

[GTPorsche]

No one has parked it yet. Surprising.

And now one has parked it....

 

[MustangManiac]

600 miles is a long way to go battling temp problems!

 

[Chqr]

Wreck the daughter of a lovely gentleman marcos!

 

[GTPorsche]

A "debris" caution.

 

[The Bman]

Jeff had a terrible pit stop. Dammit!

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

In the Indy 500, we saw debris tumbling on the backstretch, but no caution.

In the Coke 600, we saw a yellow flag, but no debris show on TV.

Just saying.

 

[MustangManiac]

Debris caution ...figures.

 

[The Bman]

Kyle Busch is leading... figures.

 

[MustangManiac]

Ford back to the front...figures 👍

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Everyone's copying each other ... figures.

 

[The Bman]

Jimmie Johnson doesn't like to party...

..figures!

What the hell are we doing? Let's talk about the race.

 

[GTPorsche]

How many more drivers is a Busch going to attempt to wreck?

More "debris".

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

More "debris".

One that Tony Stewart will probably not complain about, even if it's for a water bottle.

 

[MustangManiac]

Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be much racing to talk about. More short tracks please.

Gordo's strategy didn't work out so well, hard to believe.

 

[-Fred-]

Yep, so far this is pretty boring to watch.

 

[GTPorsche]

Not pitting was a bad decision for Jeff.

Unless more "debris" is found fairly soon.

 

[The Bman]

Not a good strategy for Jeff Gordon. I mean, it did allow him to restart in the front but with all of the other drivers running fresher tires he is little challenge for the drivers behind him to make a move against him.

 

[GTPorsche]

Actually it looks like it's turned out to be an ok choice so far.
