They sure need to figure out a way to keep the trucks on the track, way to much air being caught by those guys!

Looks like those cars are rock solid. You would think with the smaller spoilers they would be more loose........

I left to go grocery shopping over 2 hours ago and we are still in the first stage? I don't know if I want to watch the 500 on Sunday, cause I have a feeling it is going to be really ugly!

Points for segments is going to cause too many unnecessary wrecks trying to get the segment points. What a stupid idea Nascar!

Last wreck was like the final laps of a "normal" race. Nothing is normal anymore.

The races are too long already, with segments they're going to be longer.

Maybe NASCAR will make a "Change" and will eliminate plate race segments......

Ha Ha - Us fans want it, so they say.

Intermissions are for long movies, not car races.

They all are saying it has nothing to do with the segments except McReynolds. The only one with common sense...

The race started 1.5hrs ago........ We're at the 30 of 120 lap mark...... 6hr race?

I may develop some new respect for Larry. :smile:

This could be a 4.5 hour race. The 500 could be 10 hours long if this keeps up!

If the Husky takes you for a long walk, you might miss 20 laps.
