Nascar - FOMCO Is Pulling For #2 & #4 - Homestead

[GA_Boater]

X-Men are racing to pick the new champ.

 

[GA_Boater]

Custer wins Heat #1. After the restart Hemric pits with a battery problem. He is probably out of the hunt.

Boy sitting here really torn, I don't know who I want to win this championship, I have watched Sadler for years and I love the way Byron drives, on in the latter part of their career and one just starting his career!

I bet JR is on the Box just beside himself, he is already guaranteed a champion, he just don't know who!

 

[GA_Boater]

Custer wins everything today, Heat #1, #2 and the race, his 1st career win. Bryon finishes in 3rd and takes the championship for Jr. Motorsports.

Cool... JRM gets a trophy to add to the 2nd floor!

Hope it's a safe race and a great day tor Truex Jr.

 

[GA_Boater]

We'll find out in a few hours. Cars are started and starting warmup laps. Junior will lead pace lap 2 before dropping to the rear for the engine change.

 

[GA_Boater]

Junior did a slow roll through the pits getting high 5's from all pit crews.

 

[GA_Boater]

Last race start for 2017 - Green flag.

 

[GA_Boater]

Truex jumps to the lead in no time.

 

[GA_Boater]

Caution on lap 6 for Gase hitting the wall, looked like a tire the way he shot up the track.

 

[GA_Boater]

Restart - Truex holds the lead.

 

[GA_Boater]

Keso pitted during the yellow for new tires - He's moving up and into 2nd behind Larson who worked his way around Truex.

 

[GA_Boater]

The Twerp is reporting a vibration after his green flag stop. Larson still leading with 30 laps to go in Heat #1.

 

[GA_Boater]

Johnson has hit the wall twice in the race, but he hasn't brought out a caution..................yet. Closing in on the end of Heat #1.

 

[GA_Boater]

Larson takes the heat followed by Keso, The Twerp, Harvick and Truex.

Only 13 cars on the lead lap - I hate these 1.5 mile tracks. Racing is usually the pits.

 

[GA_Boater]

Green for Heat #2 - Keso is trying to take the lead from Larson. Larson holds.

 

[MTboatguy]

1.5 mile track and championship race combined, normally makes for a pretty boring race until the last 10 laps!

 

[GA_Boater]

Danica is done in her last race - Jumping out of the car for smoke after chewing on the wall. Had to be a right front tire the way she veered into the wall.

18 laps to go in H2. Larson was in front.

 

[GA_Boater]

Larson wins his 2nd heat today. Truex, Harvick, The Twerp and Keso follow behind in order.

107 laps left in 2017 barring an OT finish. Chances of that may be good with 4 drivers fighting to be the highest finisher.
