Nascar Race #8 - Goin' For Groceries At Bristol

[GA_Boater]

A debris caution! And I missed it cuz I took a break.

 

[GA_Boater]

Casey Mears spins right after the restart when he was in the middle of a 3 wide and gets slapped by The Dinger. 9th time today.

 

[GA_Boater]

Another spin - Scott this time. Are they dizzy and woozy at Bristol? #10.

 

[GA_Boater]

With 90 to go, Hamlin scrapes the wall bringing out the 11th flag.

I think nascar, made a big mistake over this lug nut deal! It is costing good cars races.

 

[GA_Boater]

This time it's the #43 spinning into the wall after contact. 12th yellow. What's the record? Must be getting close.

Tried a new sponsor this week. Looks like Allstate's Mayhem Guy is not a good fit for Bristol. :facepalm::lol:

 

[GA_Boater]

Ty Dillon throws a shoe and whacks the wall for the 13th.

 

[GA_Boater]

Annett goes around for the 14th. Only 13 laps to go.

 

[GA_Boater]

Smith in the wall on the restart. 3 wide does not work, Danica! #14

Make that #15. I can't keep up counting all these yellers. :doh:

 

[GA_Boater]

Edwards wins - Domination. Junior battled back to second after the first lap issues and Busch41, Elliott and Bayne round out the top 5.

On Tuesday we find out if superfish holds on for the official result. He only has a 55 point lead for the race, it might be a close one. :facepalm:

 

[GA_Boater]

With a 55 point lead at Bristol and clearing all the post race inspections, superfish was super. The superfish mantle has an iboats :first: to show for the win. Congrats to superfish.

superfish moved into second place in the overall standings with the big win at Bristol. Trackchick Stars is hanging tough in 1st place.

Richmond up next for Cup and Xfinity.

Mikey rings the cowbell....I mean the green flag drops!

Looks like the stands are only half full.

I have never seen Bristol's stands so empty. It used to take a couple years to get tickets......... Looked like an X-Men crowd...

Who the heck is that guy that finished 6th, I believe...

 

[GA_Boater]

Matt DiBenedetto?

 

[WIMUSKY]

Yeah, him. Where did he come from? Never heard of the guy til Sunday...

 

[GA_Boater]

This is his 2nd year of full-time Cup racing. His best finish prior to the 6th on Sunday was 18th in last year's Spring race at Dega. He usually finishes mid-pack or further back.

i have him as a permanent fixture on my fantasy league for a back-filler. seems to have the best finishes of the low dollar selections. would like to see what he could do in a good car.

on another note, Matt Tifft is getting his chances. my son raced with him a little about 5 or 6 years ago

ok. so Smoke is back. didn't take him long to get in trouble with nascar either. so he was fined for him lug nut opinion? what? crazy! he barely said anything negative other than that he disagreed with nascar. so now drivers can't disagree (politely, mind you) with nascar?

 

[MTboatguy]

Matt is a great driver, and I have been watching him for quite a while, he will be a future champion, as long as he can get the right equipment under him.
