2020 Nascar - Daytona Oval

[GA_Boater]

The Dinger wins heat 2. He was pushed to the front by Chastain who took 2nd.

 

[GA_Boater]

Green with w36 to go - The Dinger leads.

 

[GA_Boater]

Top 10 cars led by The Dinger are freight training away from what's left of the field. 25 to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

12 to go and the train has lost the caboose. The Dinger, Chastain and Haley teammates the leaders.

 

[GA_Boater]

Haley wins on the last lap when Chastain taps The Dinger and both spin. Haley squirts through on the bottom from 6th to take the checkers.

When Haley was in 3rd, he was blocking for his teammates until he got out of line. The blocker wins the race.

Final regular season Cup race tomorrow, when rosters lock at 7:25 PM.

I was off about tonight being the X-Men end of regular season and the same for Trucks. The three series regular seasons ending are staggered, X-Men have 4 races left before the playoffs. Only begins playoffs next week.

After all, this is 2020 and nothing is normal!

 

[GA_Boater]

Rain around Daytona. Yuck! 7:25 is still the roster lock time.

A few weeks ago I mentioned the Bubba Wallace bumper auction from the Bristol All-Star race won by Carparts.com. Bubba and McDowell have signed the bumper and Carparts is giving it away to a fan.

[GA_Boater]

Pre-race inspection - Austin Dillon is starting at the rear for 2 flunks. That's it unless some are caught for unapproved adjustments after inspection.

Possible light rain on the way over the next hour or maybe not. Who knows and he isn't spilling the beans.

Roster locks at 7:25. Harvick is on the pole.

 

[GA_Boater]

Bowyer to the rear for unapproved adjustments.

A few minutes to rework rosters if needed. Engines fired. Competition caution on lap 20.

My iFL is still on warmup and 9 laps are in the books. :facepalm:

 

[GA_Boater]

Byron now leading. Harvick is falling back. Lap 15.

 

[GA_Boater]

Harvick had a hot dog wrapper blocking his grille and was getting hot. Dropped back behind Newman and air took off the wrapper.

Competition caution on lap 2 and iFL is green on lap 0!

 

[GA_Boater]

Back to green halfway into the the 1st 50 lap heat. iFL finally woke up!
