Official 2018 NASCAR Thread

[mlrifleNY]

I have been a fan of NASCAR for as long as I can remember. I am not a big fan of the stage racing, it will sooner or later get someone hurt bad the way they race now. The playoffs are not all that bad but I see the stands are no longer full so I guess many of the fans are not so into what NASCAR is now doing.

I wrote a post last night, but not sure what happened to it.

I was saying that for someone who's not a fan of Road Racing, I thought it was a pretty good race. Although I would still rather have the old Charlotte.

Jimmie Johnson went from Hero to Zero pretty quick.

Truex would have won if Jimmie didn't tag him late in the spin.

Some pretty good finishes for some of the shoe-string teams.

Ryan Blaney won as mentioned above.

Good to see Jamie Mac finish at 2nd.

I hate that about Truex, but
ain't never been a JJ fan.

Should have put a post up earlier to let you all know today was the biggest race of the year for our Aussie V8 supercars.
It has been a few years since they raced in the USA but I wouldn't be surprised if they are back over there within a few years. This year is the last for the Aussie Falcon with the ford teams switching to mustangs next year, some of the GM teams are talking about running Camaros in 2020.
Both Roger Penske and Michael Andretti are part owners of teams and have been out here all week.

I like the #1 starter today.

terrible start for the 48, lower ball joint failure on the pace lap and missed the first 10 laps of the race ..

Chad must be fuming again.

He was saying how he had a rough Monday last week.

the 4 car is really running strong

to me the best part of the race so far has been the choir that sang the National Anthem ..

Hope the rest of the year is the same.
