I predict Larson for the Win. He's Kill'n it

 

[#18FAN]

I like the 24 car but thinking the 18 car might have something for these Hendrick cars

I wouldn't mind Yung Money getting another win.

Invocation and Anthem complete, 5 minutes to the command.

 

[bdcardinal]

Opening Ceremonies and the start of the race were pushed back 10 minutes due to traffic concerns.

Watching. Hoping Larson pulls off another win. Always knew he'd kick butt if he drove for a team who could keep a car under him. Kinda reminds me of Tim Richmond in how he drives and seemingly has no fear.

I would have liked seeing Pastor Nelms give us another awesome invocation that ended in "Boogity boogity boogity, amen" but I get it.

Love seeing the packed stands again.

Blaney with some damage and is pitting in on the pace laps.

Green flag!!

Lap 1 caution, the 00 car hard in the wall on the backstretch. The right front tire came off in the hit.

Something had to have broke I think. Car flat out didn't turn going into 1

Back to green on lap 6 and Yung Money grabs the lead.

It is StarCom, so it could be anything. I've followed them since their first race and really had hopes they could get some money and get better equipment.

Race Control just told the clean-up crew to take the wheel/tire from the 00 car to the NASCAR hauler, dun dun dun.....

What does that possibly indicate?

What does that possibly indicate?

Nothing good happens in the NASCAR hauler. They probably want to inspect it and see what happened to make the wheel come off.

Lap 46 caution, 8 car spins coming off the pit lane exit road.21 car is the beneficiary.

 

[Red Crow]

Lap 46 caution, 8 car spins coming off the pit lane exit road. 9 car should be the free pass.

Not impressed with the brake package. 40 laps in and they are trashed.

Not impressed with the brake package. 40 laps in and they are trashed.

Probably weren't anticipating that about of braking required. They try to run the smallest package possible to reduce unsprung weight. Next year should be better with the new car and bigger brake package.
