NASCAR Weekend: The Legend of Hallowdega

The track that all of big teams dread (sans Junior) and where all the small teams/S&Ps put all their chips on the table in hopes of putting that usually nearly impossible W on the books. I'm hearing J.J. Yeley and Mason Mingus as the early favorites.

Jp

Amazed by OP video.

Not sure if serious.

TRUCKS!!! 

Truck start time pushed back then? If it's raining..

Hopefully that's it for the rain. Start time is 4:22pmET for the trucks. Should be ok.

Jeb Burton on pole for the Truck race.

His sixth NCWTS pole of the year. Pretty damn good, rookie. 

[Trucking Intensifies]

Interesting but useless factoid: 

Jeb Burton has more NCWTS career poles in his rookie year than teammate James Buescher has in 5 seasons, and just one less than current points leader and 13-year NCWTS veteran Matt Crafton.

Now, who's watching? 

Oh, so Mason Mingus is a real person. I thought you guys were just making that up.

Crew Chief- "Mingus, we see a lot of smoke"

Mingus- "Ah Um" 

An oval race with a lap count in double figures. Excellent.

I find it hard to root for a racing driver named "Timmy".

I agree. NASCAR driver names tend to be either deep south or urban hipster. A guy who is half way between "Jeb" and "Parker" is my choice.

 

Jerker? 

Well, that was some smooth pit entry.

Hey Hope, I figured out a way for you to catch up on warning points. Did you know this new-fangled forum lets you report your own posts? 

It was bound to happen sooner or later.

I reported you for helpfulness and I reported me for shenaniganery so you're still one ahead.

Damn it Quiroga. 

Damn it Quiroga. 

It's all his fault.

Also, new favorite name: Chris Cockrum.

One of these days Brennan Newberry is going to win a race, and everybody will stop calling him Brendan.

I never know if name ****-ups are something I should be pissed at or not. I don't know how hard or easy it is to commentate on a race, and some people just get tongue-tied. But there's a part of me thinking "I'm calling temp agencies ten times a week and you can't be bothered to learn a driver's name?". Although it's not exactly breaking news that being unemployed turns you into the kind of douchebag you'd kill if you had to share an apartment with.

Ooh implications!

Anyone got an over/under (or taking drinks) for how many times the phrase "wild card in the chase" will be/has been used this weekend?

A bit of pressure on Kenseth to keep it close since Martinsville is almost essentially conceding full points to Johnson.

Also, I think Michael Waltrip is the worst commentator in all of sports. He can't complete a simple sentence. 

We should add "Go where they ain't" to the list of things we need to drink to. Waltrip says it constantly.

Ouch, That was a hard lick. I hope everyone is okay. 

Hahahahaha Hornaday.

I tried to help you out buddy. Your one mistake was forgetting to put "Kimi" in the title.

I appreciated it. 

Holy ****. 

Holy **** guys that finish

Wallace crossed in reverse. 

Bubba looks shaken up as does Kyle. Who is still stuck in their truck? 

Hmm. I hope my gut feeling is wrong. Didn't look good.

Supposedly Paludo is stuck inside..

That car that hit the pit wall on the exit... Ouch.

Didn't like all the celebration-stuff either :/

Edit: That was Kyle. Phew (in the way that he is out of the car)

Massive lick by Kyle. Glad he's ok. How's Miguel? 

Kyle's hit:

And livestream of the end of the last ever Petit Le Mans if you want to watch something before Indeecar:

Rowdy should avoid Trucks, these noobies don't respect him.

Classic tandem racing finish.  Was it just two trucks that crossed the finish line pointing straight?
