Jr was damn lucky there.

Jr was damn lucky there.

I didn't see it I'm listening to the MRN radio broadcast.

 

[Vicious]

Well the finish was exciting despite the fact nobody could touch Harvick.

 

[Vicious]

I didn't see it I'm listening to the MRN radio broadcast.

Edwards, Hamlin and Bayne crashed/spun directly in front of Jr, and he drove right through the middle of them.

 

[Vicious]

Duel #2 starting now.

 

[Dave_6]

Damn, Edwards just isn't having any luck at Daytona so far this year.

 

[TylerD]

Kyle Busch inside lane fail.

 

[Vicious]

And yet he wins the race.

 

[digita1alchemy]

Well that was underwhelming. I'm getting the impression that this rule package sucks. Edwards and Truex had their right side windows blown out and Bliss has his window net come down...I'm thinking that these new cars create a ton of turbulence, which might be why no one can seem to pull up on the car in front of them.

 

[Shaneus]

The mental image I have of the radio/TV coverage of whatever it is you guys are watching is just like that Simpsons episode where it has Kent Brockman and the foreign guy both commenting on the soccer.

 

[Chris R]

Watching the duels now, was just going to comment on how nice it was that the racing was crash free... Whelp.

As long as my man Juan doesn't ram into a jet dryer this Daytona 500 will be a success.

and if Harvik doesn't win a single thing the rest of the year I'll be happy.

 

[B.K.]

The truck race is starting in about 30 minutes. It'll probably be the best race of the weekend.

 

[Vicious]

I will be watching for Darrell Wallace Jr.

 

[TylerD]

The truck race is starting in about 30 minutes. It'll probably be the best race of the weekend.

I am more excited for "Are U Fastr then a REDNECK!"

 

[rangersfan414]

Personally, I think the Nationwide race will be the best, but that's because I love the tandem

RIP 2011.


EDIT: I thought Kyle Busch was banned from Trucks.

 

[TylerD]

You get 3 distinct styles of super speedway racing.

Trucks: pack
NNS: 2 car tandem
CUP: Single file

---------

look at this racing! time for a break.

 

[rangersfan414]

There's alotta fans in the grandstand for a truck race.

 

[digita1alchemy]

There's alotta fans in the grandstand for a truck race.

For good reason, it will probably be the best race this weekend. This restart is going to be nuts.

 

[rangersfan414]

Well Kyle Busch just got screwed by that.

 

[B.K.]

I fell asleep and missed the whole race. :/

 

[Chris R]

Decent Truck race, could have done with a better finish though.

Should be an interesting NNS race because everyone wrecks in this thing.

 

[rangersfan414]

Cup guys don't care bout pts so they go all out and tandem leads to more accidents.

Go Smoke!

 

[Vicious]

I swear that "smoke" is the most forced nickname ever.

 

[Chris R]

I swear that "smoke" is the most forced nickname ever.

Nah, look at his sponsors for today's race. Smoke is what he does on his down time. Pudge might be a better one now though.

Came from his USAC days on dirt tracks... predates NASCAR.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Eric McClure leading at Daytona.

I just thought I would type that out because you'll never see that again.

Came from his USAC days on dirt tracks... predates NASCAR.

I know where it came from. It just always seems like "yes, we're still trying to make this a thing" after all these years. To me, anyway.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Justin Allgaier just stopped the Big One from happening.

 

[NihonTiger90]

BIG ONE

Austin Dillon gets turned into the wall.

Mike Bliss, Kasey Kahne, Johanna Long, Michael Annett also involved.

 

[Chris R]

Didn't see that coming... Oh wait, yes I did.

 

[B.K.]

I'm surprised they went that long after the last restart before wrecking. I wonder how many will wreck on the next restart.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Why won't anyone draft with Pastarana? His car is pretty quick

 

[NihonTiger90]

Annett got loose off of Sadler's rear bumper and turned Dillon.

 

[Chris R]

Why won't anyone draft with Pastarana? His car is pretty quick

Guessing that will change on this next restart.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Guessing that will change on this next restart.

I'd bet it will.

Kenseth got through that like a boss, woooooow.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Pastranas in car communication was awesome.

Wow look at that wreck. Lol

 

[moojito]

Nice, switched this race on just in time to see the big one. Thanks for waiting for me, guys!

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Here we go!

 

[moojito]

Damn!

 

[NihonTiger90]

Holy shit, who WAS that?

 

[Chris R]

Hope the crowd is ok, looks like the drivers are all fine

 

[JetBlackPanda]

Holy shit.

 

[B.K.]

A car is going to go through that fence one of these days.

 

[moojito]

That was insane. Hope everyone's ok.

edit: the bloody engine went right through the fence!

 

[B.K.]

The engine's in the grandstands.

 

[NihonTiger90]

A car is going to go through that fence one of these days.

It is. NASCAR keeps dodging bullets. Bobby Allison, Carl Edwards and now Kyle Larson's cars have almost gone into the stands.

 

[Vicious]

That was one of the craziest things I've ever seen. The engine burning while sitting up in the stands is just nuts.

 

[B.K.]

That wreck reminds me of Geoff Bodine's crash.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmT3gQQdJm4

I'm still amazed no one died that day.

 

[moojito]

I can't believe the driver of the 32 car just walked away from that.

 

[NihonTiger90]

Something feels bad here.
