Nascar Race #9 - Lettin' The Smoke Out at Richmond

[GA_Boater]

Is Newman debris? He spins for #6.

And Ellis goes around on the restart. The flagman is getting tired with no rest between yellows.

 

[GA_Boater]

Not too sure Smoke is rusty, He's making 4 wide runs to move back toward the front.

#8 for Scott spinning. with 41 to go. Things could get very interesting.

Bump and run by Carl for the win.....Shrubby won't be happy. And they're teammates........

 

[GA_Boater]

Nice job Carl. For the win in turn 4, a bump and run.

_Slide_Job_ has the race. Find out on Tuesday.

 

[WIMUSKY]

Shrubby didn't even say anything bad about Carl? Is this a new Shrubby? Maybe the boss got to him on the radio before he got out of the car....

That was a great move by Carl, classic bump and run, good job!

 

[GA_Boater]

A by the book short track win. Big Dale would say "Well done, Carl"


Unless he was in Shrubbys shoes. :smile:

Was hoping Carl's bump for the win would bump me for the win. Great move by Edwards.

 

[WIMUSKY]

That's what racing "used" to be...... Now its, "don't touch me".........

I was disappointed that shrubby didn't hit the wall.

Glad to see some action at Richmond, while I enjoy short track racing, I feel like Richmond can be a little less than thrilling with so many cars going laps down so fast. Carl tastefully moved the 18. Im more impressed Rowdy didn't complain in his post race interview. Go 88.

Carl did it just right.

While I understand the thrill of seeing crumpled remains of the 18, the perfect nudge only causes a wiggle up the track and out of the way.

Also you need to remember they are team mates and Gibbs wouldn't be too happy about paying to repair a car wrecked by team mates..

Yes, it was and I was glad to see it, that was more like racing, then what has happened the last few years, Dale Sr. would have been proud of Carl!

 

[MTboatguy]

I was disappointed that shrubby didn't hit the wall.

I don't like to see anyone ran into the wall, I was watching the day that Dale Sr. was bumped and went into the wall and we all mourned for weeks!

 

[GA_Boater]

Got the iFL official results.

Slide Job held 64osby off by 4 1/2 points. I thought the gap was wider at the end of the race Sunday. Maybe SJ had some missing nuts. LOL Congrats on your :first: place finish.

Trackchick Stars is still leading the pack in the overall standings.


Next race - It's Dega baby! Cup and X-Men. We still gotta wait one more week for a Truck race.

 

[64osby]

With one lap to go I was down by 44 1/2. Needed Carl to do that pass with 10 laps left in the race.
