Actually for a Mile and a Half track, this race actually isn't too bad. But, Formula 1 did steal all of NASCAR's on track action.

inb4 Kurt Busch gets together with Ryan Newman again.

I've always liked this race because it is such a marathon, but with the way technology has been advancing, it's gotten to seem like a fairly normal race. the cars hardly break down anymore

With fuel injection fun and the number of engines grenading in the all-star race, May see a few retirements from these problems. Who knows though?

That's because Roush built engines specifically for the All-Star race, so they would of only lasted about 200 miles.

I had a chance to go to last year's race; Glad I didn't. I would have raged beyond all belief.

Hopefully, this year, things can work out a bit better for my driver. With his run in the All Star, it's not too far fetched.

Hopefully Dale Jr won't have a repeat of what happened to him last year on the last lap while leading.

And the trend of DANICADANICADANICA continues on Memorial Day weekend, although the good side is that ABC won't corrupt the Indy 500 coverage with constant reports on her.

CAN DANICA GET THE BEST..31ST...PLACE FINISH EVER!?!?!

I hope Ambrose can get his first win on an oval this weekend! He looked pretty strong in the All-Star, though he's definately not the only driver that was.

If they bring the all-star car i think Ambrose has quite the shot.

He's had 4 top 10's at Charlotte in a row, so he has good form.

I think he and Jr. are the two main threats for the win based on their runs in the All-Star. Allmendinger and Johnson could also be there at the end too.

Rain will be a factor for Qualifying.

Fixed.

Almirola on the pole?

Almirola on the pole and Ambrose second. RPM front row.

this is going to be good.....

antknee wrote:Almirola on the pole?

Huh...well, it has been a year of surprises.

Nice to see RPM sweep the front row, but I would never have guessed that Almirola would take the pole! I wonder how long he'll stay up front.

RPM front row.

DAT FRONT ROW DAT FRONT ROW DAT FRONT ROW DAT FRONT ROW

MY BODY WASN'T READY FOR THIS.

My reaction to RPM sweeping the front row.


It probably won't be long before a boring driver takes the lead after the first or second lap like JIMMIEWINSLOL and LOLROUSHTEAMORDERs-BIFF (who will both start in the 2nd row) and runs away from the field. Winning a pole doesn't win you the whole race, at least most of the time anyway. Then again, it is a 600 mile race so anything can happen. Also, good job on Regan Smith for qualifying in 10th.

inb4 Kurt Busch gets turned around on the front stretch.

Time for round 3...

1st 100 laps have been green flag laps. Boring race is boring.

Really Stewart? That was ... amateurish...

But don't have a debris caution... that just "fixes' a race.

This race is making me do this...





Man, it seems Formula One and IndyCar has sucked all the excitement out of NASCAR.

Pretty much how I'm feeling. It's funny how we were all complaining about these "debris" cautions. Since we haven't been getting them as much this year, some of us are calling it as one of the worst NASCAR seasons ever.

Not sure what you are refering to exact, but if your talking about what he did on pit road, I couldn't agree more...

...and that comes from a Stewart fan.

Kahne is driving like a boss tonight

About the only thing that's going to stop him now is either a jackass punting him, or something going amiss on the car

Danica won reject of th race, because after Regan Smith bumped her into the wall she said the following:

"Why are they doing that? I'm five laps down."

Kasey Kahne wins the most boring race of the weekend, and possibly the season

eh, texas and auto club were worse.

I guess being the slut... errr... spokesperson of "Greatest Women Driver Ever" allows her to be a cnut... err... allow her to call out anything and everything that is done to her that is a wrong against all of woman kind

You misspelled an insult. I'm not fixing it though.

Compared to Monaco and Indy, this race sucked.

Jeff Gordon finally catches a break and 8 of the 10 drivers I picked for NASCAR Pick Em finished in the top 10.

I did and I didn't. I was thinking that word, but I guess something triggered in my brain to use the other word I use for it (mainly on Yahoo where cunt gets censored, so I switch things around to get around that). But it's all the same

I don't know why i didn't use this race for my nap.

Horrendous race. The only redeeming factor for me that i can think of is a Keselowski good run but that is to be expected of Kez and a few funny moments during the race but that was it.

Wake me up when an interesting race occurs.

Alta wrote:Wake me up when the next race occurs.

Fixed.

I've noticed something.

At least tonight, a lot of the guys in the top of the points drove blue cars.

Probably more interesting than the racing

The GP2, GP3, and Firestone Indy Lights races were way better than this!

If you know me, you will know why I am so happy right now

You are EFR's resident Kahne fanboy.

See, it even says so in your sig.

So

As an Ambrose fan that race was horribly depressing.
