Who saw Stewart's car get loose during the warm-up laps?

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

No, Kurt. It's not time to wreck another Finch car.

 

[Furinkazen]

Kurt... theres 500 laps for that.

 

[That90sGuy]

I just discovered that Zynga has taken over the 24 livery. Oh god

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Wow. Mears actually holding onto that lead.

Schrader...

 

[Furinkazen]

Caution already. #32 Schrader.

 

[The Bman]

I like Schrader.

 

[Furinkazen]

He wasn't happy

Wow, took this long to mention Danica.

Kurt "Move brake bias away from on-off switch"

 

[The Bman]

Casey Mears is still the best thing since sliced bread...

EDIT: at Ken Schrader's reaction.

 

[ICEYOU]

Well, they didn't change much at this track.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Burton's 2nd? Boy, it's been a long time since he's been... well, relevant in a race.

Damage on the 51. Par for the course.

 

[The Bman]

Gordon really needs a new pit crew.

 

[Furinkazen]

Pit road madness!

 

[ICEYOU]

So far this race is a disappointment!

 

[The Bman]

I'm really enjoying this race. It's nowhere near what it used to be in the early 2000's but it's still great.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Where does Finch gets the money to fix the 51 every single week?

 

[ICEYOU]

I'm really enjoying this race. It's nowhere near what it used to be in the early 2000's but it's still great.

But that's what we we're all expecting. Oh well.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Flamin' Ragan.

 

[ICEYOU]

Addington is really REALLY inconsistent with giving Tony Good cars to work with. Like WTF? lol

 

[The Bman]

"Brian Vickers of the #24."

Typical ESPN failure.

 

[The Bman]

Newman spins and Burton runs into him. Caution is out.

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

"Brian Vickers of the #24."

Typical ESPN failure.

Could be worse...



So much for Burton's good night. Thanks, Montoya. 👎

 

[ICEYOU]

So at this point Jeff just needs to finish ahead of Kyle inorder to get the Wild Card!

 

[rap129]

Great race so far! Loving it!

 

[The Bman]

Almirola brings the caution out for the 6th time.

 

[ICEYOU]

I cannot believe Racebuddy isn't scheduled for use this weekend's cup race. It's really REALLY stupid!

 

[Matty]

Struggling to stay awake here..

Only another 270 laps...

 

[OutlawQuadrnt]

Biffle holding everyone up.

So much for Burton's good night. Thanks, Montoya. 👎

According to Newman's crew chief, Tony Gibson, the 39 had a flat left-rear tire and spun across the 42's nose. Watch the replay and you'll see the 39 spin down to the 42, and you'll see the 39's rear tire was definitely already flat.

I knew that Newman was the one who started the incident. I saw him come down and hit Montoya.

Keselowski spins and hits the wall... with help from Bobby Labonte. Again.
