The cars now have 'brains'.

They plug a laptop (psycho-analyst) into the ECU (brain) to find out why the car is misbehaving. Or behaving.

Watching the Aussie V8 series (also on right now - race 2) and, man, this is racing at its closest, too.
 
Kind of the ending of the mid-game. Now the chips start to come out and the heavy cashing-in begins. I'm still not ruling out Kenseth reeling them in in that steely-teal machine.
 
IDK why I always get excited when Junior is up front only to end up being disappointed at the end of the race...
 
Getting interesting now. Don't think they can go the rest of the way. Some took two, which I think will hurt those drivers if there's another caution within their fuel window.
 
Getting interesting now. ......xsnip..x

Yes. This is the best part of the race - as we grind down to the climax of that last three laps. Sometimes it seems like a three-lap race - with several hundred 'real-time' qualifying laps just before that to weed out the weakest.

And its only when one watches every lap (like every move in the chess-game) does one enjoy fully the last few hands that get played out by the surviving players. Part gamble, part skill, and when it comes to luck - its all or nothing.
 
LOL. What's a jinx, jonah? Look at Tony steal that lead.

And now Kenseth kisses the wall. Jinxed instantly.

I tort I taw a Puddytat?? Brad! Is that you, tweety?
 
This is shaping up to be a very good closing stage. Hopefully Kaselowski has the fuel to the end...
 
I think Mike Joy was doing his best to say that Martin flipped off Joonya. :lol:

HA HA HAMLIN
 
A strange mix out in front - Tony, Brad, the Biff, Jimmie . . . and Kenseth. Who's got the best hand? 20 laps to go. Sometimes this happens to be the longest part of the race - hopefully no red flags because someone gets overly aggressive and a six-gun gets pulled over an ace up someone's sleeve, LOL.
 
Johnson v. Stewart. This could get interesting.

"Stewart. . . is saying 'oh,' and you can fill in the blank." -Darrel Waltrip :lol:

3-TIME VS 5-TIME...OH BOY :sick:
