Re: NASCAR thread
I would think. Last year they were bragging how cool those engines were gonna run and then about every car that had them was overheating.

Re: NASCAR thread
I watched out of curiosity and to see the Thunderbirds. To me they were not racing....they were riding around in pairs like Olympics ice skaters. Seems like the second car had to speed up and the first car had to slow down so they could hook up to go faster.
That ain't racing. I certainly hope this a one track phenomenon!

Re: NASCAR thread
Big congrats to the Ford guys for taking the first four spots on the grid for todays race.
Happy to see Mark win the N/W race on Saturday, and a tip of the hat to Danica for her fourth place finish.

Re: NASCAR thread
Yes, the previous best was a 5th back in 1949.

Re: NASCAR thread
Is it Robby Gordon's goal to spin out in every race. He seems to spin out every weekend. Most of the time it's his own fault.

Re: NASCAR thread
How fouled up is the new points system? There have been three winners this year, and only one of them is in the top 10 in points...(at least it is Carl)...

Re: NASCAR thread
Bristol sure isn't like it used to be. That's for sure.

Re: NASCAR thread

Re: NASCAR thread
I was truly shocked ot see the amount of empty seats during the cup race. It looked more like a nationwide race from that aspect. And I consider Bristol one of the more respected races, so I can imagine what races like Calif. this weekend will look like.

Re: NASCAR thread
The sales of the Bristol tickets went south when they changed the track. Not so much when Toyota or the COT car came. When they made Bristol a 2 groove racetrack, it took all the drama out of the race and turned a lot of die-hard Bristol fans away. Everyone wanted to see the bump and run and fighting. That's what the track was known for and now it's all gone.

Re: NASCAR thread
I wish Roush, Petty Childress, Ganassi and the other owners
would start their own series, No foreign mfr's allowed. Just Ford, GM and Mopar. No toiletta, no honduh, etc. That way the treasonous DW would be out of a job. Let him pound salt. I never cared for him anyway, but his constant brown nosing of toiletta is sickening.

Re: NASCAR thread
Great finish today. Harvick did a masterful job of getting past Kyle and Jimmy.
It was kind of boring early in the race.

Re: NASCAR thread
It's always boring when a toilet leads.
Funny how some toilets blew up this weekend

Re: NASCAR thread
Even though I'm not a Harvick fan, I was certainly happy to see him blow by the two biggest egos on the track.
Even better, Carl has the points lead!
