LAWeaver Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 WATKINS GLEN WEEKI know! I cant wait! I love the road course races.

raysox Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I know Johnson would've won if he hadn't had trouble, but Kahne was pretty dominant. He was bad on the restarts, but he nailed the one that counted. Kurt gave him a big shove into 1 and Kahne sailed by Gordon and ran away with it. Things are getting interesting! @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the one race remaining I want to see in person is Mid-Ohio.I'm all for more road courses on the Sprint Cup circuit. I really want to see Road America on the schedule.

Needschat Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 This was a pretty good Gen-6 race. Passing for the lead, passing throughout the field. The only thing I hate is the Twitter whining that Danica Patrick received for her accident and the lack thereof for Matt Kenseth's. They were both caused by the same thing: Outside car taking air off, causing the rear to lose traction. Is it me, or are some NASCAR fans on social media becoming more and more ignorant?WATKINS GLEN WEEKShould NASCAR oil down the track like last year? LOL Oh what could have been....

Dalcowboyfan92 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 I know James Finch was trying to honor Neil Bonnet by having AJ Allmendinger drive the old "Country Time Lemonades" paint scheme, but my god.Hot pink and yellow should never be together on a race car, or anything for that matter.

Chicageaux Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Broken leg. He's gonna miss atleast this race weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalcowboyfan92 Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Broken leg. He's gonna miss atleast this race weekend.Such a shame for Smoke. I remember the last time Smoke had to miss a race weekend, back in 2006 at Dover. Stewarts' crew chief; Greg Zippadelli called up Ricky Rudd to sub for Tony because of how the constant shifting at Dover would be figurative murder to Stewart's shoulder.

LAWeaver Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Any word on replacements? I think a few Nationwide drivers such as Regan Smith, Kyle Larson, Justin Allgaier, and heck, maybe even Austin Dillion could take over (doubtful on Dillion). If none of them, maybe tony could call up Allmendinger to drive. @loganaweaver - Twitter / @loganaweaver - Instagram / Nike Vapor Untouchable Football Template / Logan's Logos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watkins Glen was one of the 5 races in which he'd be driving the #47 car for JTG Racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEW.ERA Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I figure they want to get someone with good road course experience. AJ would've been perfect. EDIT:They found someone. Max Papis! Not the best NASCAR experience, but still a fine road racer. JETS|PACK|JAYS|NUFC|BAMA|BOMBERS|RAPS|ORANJE| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the best NASCAR experience, but still a fine road racer. I was going to say that Max Papis is the replacement this weekend at Watkins Glen for Stewart. He's a good road racer. Maybe in the good equipment Stewart-Haas has, he could be a sneaky pick to win, or at least; finish really good at the Glen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAWeaver Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Update on Stewart: MRN's 'Pistol' Pete Pistone writes that Stewart will be out indefinitely after undergoing a second surgery on his broken leg. In the article, Competition Director Greg Zipadelli says that it will be approximately 24-48 hours before an official word on how long Smoke will be sidelined.
