Now Lajoie

This restart is gonna be a disaster it looks like

[Scraps 13,560]

Well they are doing way better than I was expecting

[Jshep34 2,308]

Cleaner than I thought. Was waiting for kyle to throw his helmet in the trash leaving the track. Dude is beyond mad.

[Scraps 13,560]

This race ending is such a cluterfuck lmao

[Scraps 13,560]

Lol funny to hear these reactions back 12 years ago 

 

 

[elfenix 34,221]

wrecking coming off pit road because the jet dryers are out on track

[Scraps 13,560]

Another clusterfuck race.

They should start racing indoors lol

[Jshep34 2,308]

Bubba sucks. Way to emotional in thinking every driver screws him over

[Scraps 13,560]

But Bowman did screw him over lol

[Jshep34 2,308]

I agree bowman did. But it seems every week someone does something to Bubba. Almost cries as much as Danica did

[Scraps 13,560]

LaJoie trying to kill K Busch or someone else

[Jshep34 2,308]

That move took out 3 to 4 other cars. Nascar will love hearing the audio from #7 crew chief. Rowdy can't catch a break. I wouldn't be surprised if he is looking into how to get out of that rcr contract

[Scraps 13,560]

Never was a huge Lajoie fanboy anyway, but after hearing his interviews this week he sounds like a bitch.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

^^ well his dad isn't much better.

[Scraps 13,560]

Another clusterfuck of an ending here

[Scraps 13,560]

And Nascar makes the ending even worse

I'll take your word for it - sumbitches at NBC switched it to USA so I missed the end because those cocksuckers make it as difficult as possible for people to follow the sport. 

Fuck NBC in the goatass.

No CR but you can blame Biden for that. They only swapped off because of his announcement so they had to get theor news hour in at 5pm

Yeah, I totally get it, but it's just Exhibit #350 of why NBC sucks. 

[Mo Horn 8,816]

At one point in either this thread, or last years thread, I suggested that nascar should go with different tire options like they do in indy and f1. Looks like they're doing that in today's race. I like it. 

[Mo Horn 8,816]

Two drivers tried to 2nd tires and it made a huge difference, but they did wear out faster. At the next pit stops there were different strategies, which makes things totally mixed up. Exactly the way it should be. Adds more strategy and decision making to the race. 

[Scraps 13,560]

Lol Spinhouse/Preece fuck everything up for Austin Dillon

 

Edited August 12 by Scraps

[Scraps 13,560]

Well Dillon pulled it out and is gonna get his ass kicked now lol

[hookem48 4,687]

don't want to see that get rid of the win and your in.

[hookem48 4,687]

for fucks sake the 22 and 11 are in the playoffs, you'd be stupid not to wreck them to win and get in.

[Jshep34 2,308]

Great seeing someone punt hamlin and logano for a win.

[ChickenSandwich 9,824]

[Scraps 13,560]

So pop pop was listening to radio and claims he didn't hear anyone say "wreck him wreck him" to Dillon....even though there is audio saying that.  

Pop pop..."well you know things can be altered"  and while with CC "it wasn't me that said it....and it wasn't him so i dont know"

 

No it was the fucking spotter you old coot.  

They can't even lie good lol 

[Scraps 13,560]

I am also still shocked Denny wasn't deemed winner.

Yellow for Logano should have come out prior to hook on Hamlin....therefore Hamlin would be in lead and win.

I guess thats what they were immediately reviewing after the race to see, but that means the yellow wasn't thrown til after 2 cars wrecked which is wack and the angle i see it at Tyler would have been in 2nd at time of that yellow Denny 3rd.

I know they got smt and shit but it all looks clusterfucked.

If only Bubba could have also been in the way. 

[Scraps 13,560]

If only Bubba could have also been in the way. 

Dillons ass was lucky there wasnt 100 more yards cause Reddick would have hooked him for hooking his boss. But wouldnt have mattered anyway going back to yellow flag thrown

[Scraps 13,560]

Lulz.

Penalties -  still a W, but not playoff eligible win

50K for Logano for burning out on pit road like an idiot

3 races for #3 spotter for telling Dillon to wreck him 

 

 

[Jshep34 2,308]

They should remove the #3 from dillon. Perk of being a talentless hack who had a rich grandad

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

If I were Logano I'd wreck Dillon lap 1 today, after which I'd retire or change motorsports. 

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

Michigan race is now on USA network.  Truex is leading lap 69 of 200. 

[Scraps 13,560]

Every race yellow within last 5 laps lol.

Shit turns into a joke.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

Racing at Daytona tonight.  McDowell is leading with 44 to go.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

McDowell done for the night.  Wrecking most likely not done for the night.  4 to go.  

[Jshep34 2,308]

Hard hit for berry. Great he walked away

[Jshep34 2,308]

Damn kyle was so close. Congrats wood bros and harrison

[Scraps 13,560]

Took half a lap for this race to turn into a clusterfuck

[hookem48 4,687]

Last lap was good.

[Jshep34 2,308]

Svg is that dude on road course

[Bevo&Pevo 5,120]

Bristol tonight, no Sunday race.

[Jshep34 2,308]

Bristol is a crap shoot almost as much as dega ro daytona

[Jshep34 2,308]

One of the worst races at bristol

I'm a Larson fan so I loved it of course.  However, there sure wasn't very many yellows or fisticuffs.   'Dega is in this elimination round, so wish granted.

It was enjoyable watching Ty Gibbs slowly suffocate in real time.

Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin going after NASCAR

https://racer.com/2024/10/02/nascars-going-to-have-to-change-says-antitrust-lawyer-as-23xi-front-row-file-lawsuit/

“We share a passion for racing, the thrill of competition, and winning,” said a joint statement from 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports. “Off the racetrack, we share a belief that change is necessary for the sport we love. Together, we brought this antitrust case so that racing can thrive and become a more competitive and fair sport in ways that will benefit teams, drivers, sponsors, and most importantly, fans.”

---

 

Antitrust and sports lawyer Jeffrey Kessler believes a lawsuit filed by 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports will be like other moments in professional sports that have brought change.

The joint antitrust lawsuit was filed Wednesday morning in the Western District of North Carolina against NASCAR and CEO Jim France. It alleges that through anti-competitive practices NASCAR and the France family operate without transparency, have stifled the competition, and control the sport in an unfair way that is at the expense of the race teams, drivers, sponsors, partners and fans.
