Poole should have won edition
Chase Elliot on pole
60% chance of rain
Prepare for refcar
Rolling for winner
>24 on the pole
If Elliot drops out of the top 10, we still post >Sneak, right?
>if collision happens beyond the overtime line on the final lap, a caution shall not be called
Good rule?
>>67259163
>Poole should have won edition
That overtime rule just seems so dumb. The finish line should determine who wins, except for rain-outs.
>muh god
>>67259240
My issue with it is that the past precedent ('07 Daytona 500) has been that they won't throw a caution unless a car (A) goes upside down or (B) catches fire. Koch's car caught fire after Poole crossed the finish line.

Predictions:
At least three "debris" cautions.
A Hendrick car will win. Elliot or Kahne
One of the Burger King cars will spin out all by himself. Just to throw a caution.
Danica will charge full speed into a large crash.
Chris Buescher will get his only top ten of the season.
Ty Dillon will cause the big one.
>>67259841
Too soon
>>67260066
Didn't Elliott get shitcanned for intentionally wrecking his car so that he could go home early one night?
That's how I remember it
>>67260214
I think it was because he unintentionally wrecked his car every week.
If Mayfield hadn't been a meth addict Sadler would have gone to the Busch series sooner.
>It's a "Pied Piper" race
>>67260324
There was one race where Eliott Sadler turned it dead right into the wall and basically confessed on the radio as to why
He was released from his contract the next week
The only other driver I've ever seen do something like that or threaten to do that is Kyle Busch
>Danica likes Big Ones
What the hell happened to bump drafting?
![[muffled eurobeat in the distance].gif](https://i.imgur.com/1LbOcum.gif "[muffled eurobeat in the distance].gif")
>>67260468
they're not gonna do that until we get closer to the end of the race
>>67260417
Damn. I don't remember that. I can't understand why someone would rage quit like that and jeopardize his career.
>>67260324
There was a documentary on Mayfield released about a year ago.
He had a prescription for Adderall because of ADHD. Now there is a huge difference between not being able to sit still in high school, and actually being diagnosed for ADHD. As an adult, it's crippling - you literally can't get shit done. You need meds to function like a normal human being.
He informed NASCAR and everything about the prescription, but at the time they wanted to push how great their new "Road to Recovery" system worked. Piss tested him, amphetamines obviously came up. He refused to be their poster boy for the program because he had the prescriptions to prove it. NASCAR proceeded to claim he was a drug addict. Independent researchers looked at the case and said "there's no way a meth addict was a stock car driver." NASCAR didn't care and basically ignored their stories in favor of MAYFIELD MAY POSSIBLY BE A METH ADDICT. I've got their rule book right beside me, and they get autistic about the most obscure shit. They can send you home for having a sponsor they don't approve of.
All of the charges/thefts, as well as his step mom calling him a chronic user etc, were used as a smear campaign and thrown out when they finally got to court.
yea thats great and all but why don't they just go the speed limit to set a good example for the children?!
>>67260468
They can get black flagged for bump drafting now.
They will all do it on the GWC anyway. You can't black flag everyone.

Danica and Menards wreck on pit road. Two of the worst in the series.
At least NASCAR didn't fuck everything up and throw a caution.

Fuck a thunderstorm.
Is it just me, or is there more garbage circulating around the track today than usual at Talladega?
>>67261667
been waiting for years, It's only almost happened once.
He actually practices the backflips as part of his workout routine during the week
>>67261679
probably because of wind
BRING THE RAIN

people actually watched garbage time enough for it to win awards?
>>67261638
No he's worse ever since Jeff Gordon started sitting in the booth. I've been watching NASCAR for at least 10 years and he's an idiot but he's always been a harmless idiot with the boogity boogity boogity and shit.
But starting this year his fuckups are worse and more toxic to the rapport of the announcing crew.
>>67261679
Don't worry, Danica will have to go to the garage eventually
Why not just put air scoops on the hood/roof/door? Almost impossible to block
>>67261667
pure comedy gold it would be
>>67261679
Its the highest concentration of white trash in the country right now.
>>67260921

I knew it would happen but I hoped they would make it to the big one.

I don't think you can own buffalo because they're an endangered species. I do know you can hunt buffalo in Utah but a permit costs you over a grand.

Texas Terry in 1990, Rick Mast in the early-mid 90s.
YES GILLILAND
>Everyone talking about roof flaps
That kind of rollover can happen anywhere. Roof flaps are completely useless when you get drilled in the right rear and all of the car's weight is suddenly on the left side.
>waltrip 7th
Jimmie would have gotten through if Danica didn't overreact like she does everytime a car around her spins.
>>67262204
Let me tell you something about aerodynamics...
Captcha:Select all pickup truck
>>67262204
You can't really prevent flips with that hard of an impact.
It seems like they flip less now. Not like the old wrecks where the cars would do 5+ barrel rolls.
