2019 Nascar - Dover - Nascar Gives Up

[GA_Boater]

Green flag pit stops - Keso gives it up.

After pit stop cycles, Elliott back in front. 45 laps to go in the heat.

Where is Joey? 15th, almost 18 seconds back with 22 laps to go in heat 2.

 

[GA_Boater]

New leader - Bowman over Elliott.

 

[GA_Boater]

Some shuffling around at the end of heat 2. Truex ends up the heat winner.

 

[GA_Boater]

Truex keeps the lead on the final heat restart.

 

[GA_Boater]

We had a yellow for a Hamlin spin - Flat tire. Getting close to 100 laps left,

 

[GA_Boater]

Hey - Joey is up to 6th.

 

[GA_Boater]

Kind of an amazing stat was just shown. Of the last 25 races excluding Elliott, Chevys had 416 starts and 0 wins. Chase Elliottt had 4 wins in those 25 starts, 3 last year and one last week.

After green flag stops finish, Truex is 1st again.

 

[GA_Boater]

15 to go and Truex has almost 8 seconds on the field.

 

[GA_Boater]

Truex wins at Dover. Bowman, Larson, Harvick, Elliott, Jones and Joey follow.

iFL is a horse race between Jip and aspeck - Showing a TIE! Again! Oh those lugnuts! LOL

I guess final result comes tomorrow?

 

[GA_Boater]

iFL is showing a tie for 3rd place too. Are you guys passing crib sheets?

 

[WIMUSKY]

Well Joey crawled back. Sounds like Truex was out 4 a Sunday drive.. Had to go to work....

 

[aspeck]

I needed some good news today ... spent the day with a family who lost the patriarch ... funeral tomorrow... I will take a shared win with Jip.

 

[GA_Boater]

Sorry to hear about the family's loss, 'speck.

On a lighter note - Tailpipes and not mine. :blue:

Boy Denny did not have a good race and ended up in the Hospital after the race because of it

Since Nascar has been fiddlin' with all the aero stuff, other drivers have had CO issues. In the old days the pipes were under the rear bumper, now they're just decals or paint. The exhaust was moved because some teams had them set so the following car in a draft overheated.

Dover iFL results are in - Yep, a tie at the top. 'speck and Jip each earned 215 points and showed those painted on tailpipes to all of us. I looked over a grumbling Humpty shoulder and he was loading up his Ebay watchlist with sawsalls. UPS hasn't knocked on the door with a delivery, so :first: and :first: are going out to aspeck and Jip. Congrats, guys.

justkiddin 5 is still our overall leader.

Cup and Truck are at Kansas this weekend. X-Men are off until the Memorial Day show at Charlotte the last weekend of May.

Does this mean I get an automatic berth in the playoffs? LOL! And how much money to Jip and I split?

Playoff? Too far in the future - We're a one day at a time bunch. "A day short and a dollar late" is our motto.

Remember how much Angus got for last year's Bracket Challenge? :wink:
