Engines Fired

They should have fired Bowyer instead.

From a cannon.

Monty up front and holding speed

Bowyer is now the Dick Dastardly of the '13 Chase.

It's weird not having the defending champ in the chase.  That's probably happened before, right?

Wow! ESPN showed 11 laps of comercial free racing!

Pretty sure JJ didn't make the chase the year his run finished.

Rain is back.... get your provisions ready for consumption.

Argh. I totally thought Talladega was next week. Still a month away.

JPM got stuffed on pit road again ? looks to be a long way back

Come in 3rd, restart 15th

Took four tyres and several others took two tyres + it was a rather slow four tyre pitstop so lost another two places to ohter four tyre cars.

And for the first time ever, taking 2 tires worked.

Steakhouse holding his ground in top10   much better than last race  Shy guy.

Dale Jr following the new rules... racin' 100% into Top5 

ChaseLesslowski wants to prove something.

Nice on Kurt!

JJ got some bad luck, boo frickin hoo.

Whoever lit a fire under Brad's ass is about a month late.

*sigh*

Montoya needs to pay a visit to the witch. That's too much bad luck for one driver.

Danica holding ChaseLess. Logano and JJ 

A drop of water on the track!?

Anyone fancies some trivia to kill the time? I kinda got hooked to it in NTG 2013.

Just one crash, and it happened to involved Montoya.  Seriously.  As for the race, this looks set to be the 12 Hours of Chicago.

The American Civil War began on April 12, 1861 when Confederate troops bombarded the Union garrison at Fort Sumter, South Carolina. Who was on pole for the Winston Cup race that weekend?

Stewart missed in 2006 after winning the title in 05. IIRC possibly by the margin involved with causing high speed wrecks at Daytona and Pocono that year. 

Keselowski picked it up over the last month but didn't leave enough margin for error. He's a candidate to possibly score the most points over the 10 races but not win the title, unless Penske can can cut a late deal for a 14th spot

Bill France?

That would be simultaneously awesome and sad.

Morgan Shepherd

What's the story with that?  Looks official, but the girl gets out holding a clothes hanger and her purse?  Major WTF here

This is Russia.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch

 

I hope he doesn't hurt himself with that stunt.

What did you say?

We still rain delay now or is anything happening?

seems like rain delay still

Restart planned for 1 hour (8:00 track, 9:00 et). Must be fun for those fans (have tix for Loudon next week, but no lights to factor in if there's a repeat).

Sweep the leg.

I heard they were just going to call it and declare Hendrick Motorsports the Winston Cup Champion!

It's the only fair thing to do.

I agree, Great to see Jimmie get his 6th, Jeff get his 5th, maiden championship for Kasey, and DALE JR., finally gets his!  

I hope he doesn't hurt himself with that stunt.

Dear Kyle, please try this next...

Trivia, eh? Here's one: did you know that Hitler on several occasions worked himself up into such a rage, that he would get down on the floor and grab a rug or carpet with his teeth and try to tear it apart like a dog? He once did this just before taking the Sudetenland, when he was nervous about possibly starting a war over the action.

any streams up?

latest word is race re-starts in ~50 minutes...

Here's a quiz:

Can anyone identify the person stepping into this Renault?
