2013 Toyota/Save Mart 350 @ Sonoma - Sprint Cup

by bigdc48 Mon Jun 17, 2013 4:19 pm

Last week at Michigan, Greg Biffle not only won his first race of the season, he gave Ford their 1000th win NASCAR. Points leader and 2010 Sonoma winner Jimmie Johnson had a cut tire in the closing stages of the race at finished outside the top 25.

Last year, Clint Bowyer surprisingly dominated the race while holding off a hard-charging Kurt Busch (2011 Sonoma winner) in the closing laps to prevail his first of 3 wins in the 2012 season. We he repeat or will someone knock him off? We'll find out Sunday.

Entry list coming soon.

Probably Villeneuve since Harraka won't be anywhere near in contention...or simply wrecks himself out of the race.

by day500champ1 Mon Jun 17, 2013 8:19 pm

Villeneuve will probably just wreck Danica then call it a day.

by Alpineopossum Mon Jun 17, 2013 9:08 pm

Villeneuve will cause wrecks while being competitive.
Harraka will cause wrecks while 5 laps down.

by BWard Tue Jun 18, 2013 8:08 am

Wait for it...

KEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Wow, with JV and Fellows in the field the long awaited Canadian Invasion is upon us...in California. Us Ohioians though we would be their landing point.

I think im the only JV fan left in the world :/

Personally i find his shenanigans hilarious.

by PKligBKFan Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:21 pm

Add another fail driver to the race -- Tomy Drissi will be in Joe Nemechek's #87.

by flyingturns89 Tue Jun 18, 2013 4:44 pm

Entry list has been updated.

A bit of a side note, but I love how every single time NASCAR visits a road course, every member of the media (inside and out of the sport) plays it out like it's some sort of insane, revolutionary idea. "LOOK THEY'RE GOING LEFT AND RIGHT HURR"

Because it's not like they've been doing it for every single year of competition since 1948 or anything.

Especially when they ran on so many in the early days.

I think I know something is wrong when Dale Jr is slower than a Front Row Motorsports car.

by BWard Sat Jun 22, 2013 3:16 pm

Qualifying for Sprint Cup is over, Jamie McMurray gets the pole.

Junior has never scored a top ten here, so I'm not all that surprised.

And McMurray takes the pole from Ambrose... anyone see that coming?

by **Ben Atkins** Sat Jun 22, 2013 5:18 pm

Knew McMurray was good at Sonoma... but not THAT good. Awesome pole for Jamie!

by BWard Sat Jun 22, 2013 5:20 pm

Someone's a happy bunny...

by Mystrsyko Sat Jun 22, 2013 5:21 pm

Ambrose said something about losing power during his lap or something. I wasn't really paying much attention

by Spannerhead29 (Nelson) Sat Jun 22, 2013 9:54 pm

Lost power coming to start his first lap.

by Dan Mackay Sat Jun 22, 2013 11:00 pm

danicafinishes30-35thlol

well on the other hand she could walk into a top 25 somehow

by PYLrulz Sun Jun 23, 2013 12:25 pm

I'm looking at the radar, and there is rain in the area.

Too bad the Cup guys don't run on rain tires

by BWard Sun Jun 23, 2013 12:38 pm

Rain rain go away, arrive when the race is out of the way.

by RealRacer4 Sun Jun 23, 2013 12:52 pm

I can't even remember the last time there was rain in the forecast at Sonoma when NASCAR's there for the weekend.

by RealRacingRoots Sun Jun 23, 2013 1:21 pm

What's the over/under on how many cars JV runs off the road today?

by PKligBKFan Sun Jun 23, 2013 1:50 pm

Probably none. So far this weekend he's been fairly clean.

Probably when they ran Sonoma in April, when it's at the tail end of California's wet season

by Alta Sun Jun 23, 2013 2:31 pm

Cloudy over here. Think we should be okay,

they should.

by **Syzygy** Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:19 pm

Paulie Harraka wrecks into Alex Kennedy on pit road while gridding, and Labonte is behind the wall on the pace laps with radiator problems. DIS GON BE GOOD

by f1fan12 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:20 pm

Well, it sure didn't take long for Harraka to wreck his car!

by conrail1990 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:20 pm

Already weve had fail horns...

by Lucstar88 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:20 pm

What the **** just happened....
We going wrecking boys

by bigdc48 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:20 pm

What the hell happened on pit road?

by PackerMan71 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:22 pm

My WTF meter just exploded...

by Lucstar88 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:24 pm

Villneuve has possible Radiator issues

by **Syzygy** Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:24 pm

...make that four cars having problems during the pace laps. Villeneuve is now jacked up on pit road.

by pennst24 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:25 pm

Great job harraka, you are terrible

by f1fan12 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:25 pm

More excitement before the Green Flag here, than the entire last 4 weeks in NASCAR!

by Alta Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:27 pm

>Harraka

LOLOLOLOLOL

by Chives2112 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:28 pm

I hope we never see Harraka or KENNEDY anywhere near a race car again.

by conrail1990 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:29 pm

Lets go racing

by f1fan12 Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:34 pm

Lets throw our brains out the window for this race!

by Mystrsyko Sun Jun 23, 2013 3:36 pm

Why do the onboards make it look like it's raining in turn 11? scratch
