i think we will see a LOT of single file in the 500. if it was up to me they would run the road course at plate tracks

NW race was awful, the outside line didnt have shit for the inside until it went GWC and nobody cared about the no pushing rule anymore.

also, if you listen to podcasts check out Raucous Racing. they used to be Rowdy Racing, their podcast went down a couple years ago but it was really good IMO

The fans spoke (sadly NASCAR listened), they want to see 3 hours of guys half throttle attempting not to touch each other. Anyone want to bet on how long it takes for the cup cars to go 43 in a row on the outside lane. Over under 20 laps.

NASCAR's implementation of this stupid "no pushing" rule is idiotic. They black flagged the 99 for doing what everyone else was doing the entire race. Then, on the final couple laps, EVERYONE on the top line was pushing because that is the only way they could make a run. NASCAR says not a peep about that. Just stupid.

i hope they get single file ASAP and run that way until it pours down rain (40% chance) bringing out a lap 99 red flag [/bitter rant]

on the bright side there is only one more week until real racing starts at phoenix

So people are complaining about NASCAR not allowing pushing now?

Because the last couple years I haven't even turned on the Daytona races because watching pairs of cars go around the track is awful.

Its so ridiculous Michael Waltrip is on the broadcast team AND in the race.

Maybe in the fall they can have Russell come up to the booth whenever the Seahawks are on defense.

Dillon operating under the wreck the entire field strategy. I'm sure nothing will be said though since he's driving the holy #3.

yeah, danica's wreck was totally her fault. when braking and turning left and the car still goes right, not a sign that something is broken or anything.

well i only watched the part before the rain delay

but i did see her run into paul menard on pit road. while he was running in 6th place and she was in 37th.

made him have to come back into the pits and lose track position.

she's turrible.

"The new format was a 30-minute session with all 46 entrants allowed on the track whenever the teams wished to take a run at a fast lap. The field was then cut to the 12 fastest cars. The quick dozen then had 10 more minutes to go for the pole position.

Keselowski and Logano played it perfectly from the start. The Penske cars dashed off pit road as soon as the first session started and posted the fastest two laps (Logano ahead of Keselowski) while the track was in shade. They then had roughly 40 minutes to cool their cars before the second session, which seemingly provided an advantage; Keselowski even got out of his No. 2 Ford to take a bathroom break.

Meanwhile, other cars employed an unexpected strategy to try and cool their cars after the laps. Since NASCAR does not allow teams to use cooling units during qualifying – officials don't want crews tinkering with the cars when the hoods are open – drivers went around the track as slowly as if they were in a school zone.

The idea was the air flow would cool the cars, but it made a potentially dangerous situation with some cars going at full speed while others coasted.

Said Logano: "When you are going out there and you are going 100 mph slower, the closing rate is really fast, so it is kind of scary.""


maybe they should have a minimum speed in qualifying... ?

" Kahne escorted his friend Russell Wilson - on a tour of the Sprint Cup Series garage and showed Wilson the detailed interior of the # 5 Chevy. The Washington-born Kahne is teaming with Wilson for a charity golf event and concert called "The Drive" (June 23-24) that will raise money for a Seattle-area Boys and Girls Club. Several NASCAR drivers and NFL players are expected to attend. "With Kasey being from the Washington area and all that, he's a big Seahawks fan and we have a connection," Wilson told USA TODAY Sports. "We wanted to do (the charity event) together. It's kind of cool. We're in different sports worlds, but at the same time, we have a great appreciation for each other. It's really exciting." Wilson, in the Phoenix area to attend spring training with the Texas Rangers beginning Monday, watched practice from the top of a hauler and then spent time with Kahne afterward"

Because Keselowski has had two 3rd place finishes. 6 points is 6 positions on the track.

my ass WILL be at martinsville. would not be surprised to see the leader to get used up near the end if anybody can catch him with these new rules.

i think i am starting to like the win to get in the chase rules. with 16 spots there must likely will be 3-4 guys that get in the chase on points. you wont have anybody to blame but yourself if you miss the chase.

Lights changed to yellow but the caution flag was never thrown. Race control didn't call for the yellow on the radio.
