Next one, there should be some elimination in the heats! Last 2 in each perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvrdgsfn Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Results from Bristol: 1. Edwards 2. Earnhardt Jr. 3. Kurt Busch 4. Elliott 5. Bayne 6. Dibenedetto 7. Harvick 8. Bowyer 9. Newman 10. Logano Cousin Carl just had the right car for the right track the whole day. He just couldn't be caught. Dale Jr though, starting off as rough as he did & ended up 2nd! Then you got Chase who didn't start off too hot & Kurt Busch's car look like it was having problems all day. Then you have the unexpected Matt Dibenedetto in the top 10. Rough day for Kyle Busch & Jimmie Johnson. Next up, the action track, Richmond! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Needschat Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 NASCAR today: Morning: "Tony's back! #SmokeHasRisen" Afternoon: "Oh, here's a $35K fine for speaking out on our new relaxing of 5 lugnut rule. How dare you speak out for driver safety and question us." NASCAR has lost it's collective administrative mind! They're 'nuts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvrdgsfn Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Well if we get a 4th manufacture, it won't be Audi.... http://www.racer.com/nascar/item/128576-nascar-audi-dispels-cup-rumors "We will continue to focus our efforts on racing in IMSA/PWC, WEC (above) and DTM," an AoA spokesman told RACER. "There are no considerations to enter NASCAR by Audi." It seems like every one wants Audi, but I had a feeling it wouldn't happen, I'm still thinking Nissan or Honda would be there, Dodge is a pipe dream & Hyundai/Kia well...

dont care Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I could see Nissan, they have the Titan for trucks, and Altima and maxima for cup and xfiniti. Honda might try to compete with Toyota but without a legitimate truck (the ridge line isn't) they can't compete in nascar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honda might try to compete with Toyota but without a legitimate truck (the ridge line isn't) they can't compete in nascar I don't see where people are getting the logic that you HAVE to have a truck in the lineup to compete in NASCAR. Pontiac was in the cup and busch series back in the day, but obviously they never had a truck. Granted, yes they're a GM group, but totally separate from Chevy. Honda is just as much of a candidate imo as anyone else at this juncture. I'll believe it when I see it though that someone jumps in and tries it.

raysox Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 What's the next in terms of European manufacturers? Has there even been one in Nascar history? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeye Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 There has been, but you have to go way back to find them. Alfa Romeo, Aston Martin, Austin-Healey, Jaguar, MG Motor, Porsche, Triumph and Volkswagen have all been a part of NASCAR in the early years.

rvrdgsfn Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Results from Richmond! 1. Edwards 2. Kyle Busch 3. Johnson 4. Kahne 5. Harvick 6. Hamlin 7. Kenseth 8. Logano 9. Truex Jr. 10. Kurt Busch The bump & run! This was by far one of the best races this season. I would never expect in a million years that Cousin Carl would've done that but hey, Kyle has done it before! JGR is becoming the force to be reckon with this year! Impressive driving from Chase & Kurt almost had the car to win with the exception of the last pit stop. Next up, another personal favorite. Talladega! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWeaver Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 Brennan Poole got freaking robbed on that NXS finish. Coming to the checkered coming through the trioval, Logan & Sadler (the leaders) made contact, sending Logan into the wall and Sadler to the apron. Poole was the first one to the line, but instead of letting them race to the line being that close, they went to the time the caution light came on, in which Sadler was the winner just beyond halfway through the trioval. Look, I like Sadler and I'm a big JR Motorsports fan, but dang it, Poole won that race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dfwabel Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I didn't watch much of the xfnity race, but saw the nasty wreck early with Chris Cockrum and Joey Gase.

rvrdgsfn Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Results from Talladega: 1. Keselowski 2. Kyle Busch 3. A.Dillon 4. Elliott 5. McMurray 6. Kurt Busch 7. T.Dillon 8. Bowyer 9. Blaney 10. Bayne This was restrictor plate racing at its finest. Drivers coming from nowhere, big ones happening & contenders were knocked out. I do enjoy Talladega!

Dalcowboyfan92 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 The Big One struck wiping out 21 cars; a few managed to chug along like Austin Dillon (3rd) and AJ Allmendinger (14th) despite both having a lot of battle damage. This was a classic 'Dega race and it's onto Kansas next weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This accident was a lot worse than the one at Daytona in 2015, so I think they did make the right decision to call the Spring Cup race. Also the Xfinity race; with both having tri-oval crashes heading to the checkered flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
