2019 Nascar - Trucks In The Dirt and Cup Goes Left And Right

[GA_Boater]

Eckes spins and a bunch pile up. Yellow.

 

[GA_Boater]

Yellow again following the restart for the Big One. Didn't catch who spun. EDIT - It was Massey

Briscoe has every lap he's run tonight, the only one to lead laps. He won last year.

 

[GA_Boater]

Briscoe wins the 2nd heat. Final heat is 60 laps.

 

[GA_Boater]

Briscoe pits during the heat break, 2nd place Friesen stayed out.

Briscoe will restart 12th. Friesen has not pitted during the final and is trying for 150 laps on a tank of gas.

 

[GA_Boater]

Chastain up front, spins on the restart for yellow. Briscoe may have some damage from all the checked up trucks.

 

[GA_Boater]

Strickler spins for yellow - 41 laps to go. A few others get together, including Briscoe, trying to avoid the checked up trucks. The yellows are helping Friesen stretch his gas.

 

[GA_Boater]

Rhodes wouldn't move to the right restarting spot, he got black flagged.

Green again. 30 laps to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

Benning stops on track right after the restart. 10th yellow .................................So far.

 

[GA_Boater]

Nascar must have threatened Rhodes with a black flag. He wasn't really flagged.

 

[GA_Boater]

Briscoe is flying through the field, up to 3rd. And a yellow for Dodson spinning to close 'em up.

 

[GA_Boater]

The final 3 laps with Friesen looking for his 1st win.

 

[GA_Boater]

Cobb spins for yellow. 12th caution. She collected Briscoe, too.

Should 4 to go with the green.

 

[GA_Boater]

Oh no! An axle fell off or out of a truck just as the green was about to be waved. Yellow extended.

 

[GA_Boater]

Green for 2 laps. And Friesen wins his first win after 61 Truck starts.

 

[GA_Boater]

Rhodes and Dipple got into it during the celebration fireworks. Just some pushing and shoving.

It's been nearly 50 years since the last cup race on dirt. I think we need to bring at least one back.

 

[GA_Boater]

Certainly agree with more dirt! :smile:

1st practice results - 5 fastest are Bowman, TWT, Hamlin, Elliott and Larson. Bubba Wallace had a leaky rear and failed transmission during practice and posted the slowest time.

X-Men are qualifying now, followed by a 55 minute Cup practice at 1:05, the X-Race on NBC with pre-race starting at 3PM and Cup qualifying at 6:40. iFL pole locks at 6:35.

 

[GA_Boater]

The Whining Twerp takes the pole for the X-Race. Why?

 

[GA_Boater]

Final practice top 5 - Elliott, Truex, DiBenedetto, McDowell and TWT. TWT had the best 10 lap consecutive average.

X-Men coverage and race coming at 3 on NBC.

 

[GA_Boater]

I feel so sad! :blue: TWT won the first heat and went off roading during the 2nd heat. Broke his front suspension.

The Dinger won heat #2.
