Nascar 2014 season

How bout this weekends qualifying order my boy kasey kahne got the 3rd spot in qualifying but damn Jimmie Johnson got the pole.

 

Its a long race though and anything can happen. Danica qualified pretty good too.

 

You are definitly right about that. It is going to be a long race and try way different people have been running recently it could be anyone too win really.

 

Who all gonna watch the Indy 500? I'm not much on Kurt Busch but imma be pulling for him tomorrow, that's gonna be tough going between races. My top 3 for the race tomorrow is Johnson, Harvick, and Edwards.

 

Tony has pulled the double duty a few times so has john Andretti. Wonder whatever happened to Andretti. Amway's my picks are smoke followed by harvick then Danica Johnson will end up about 20 the after tire and pit stop troubles

 

I watched all 1100 miles when Tony Stewart did the double. Won't be able to do it tomorrow, but I hope to catch some of both races and I'll definitely be able to catch the end of the 600.

 

Yea I was at the 600 when Stewart flew into the infield from the Indy 500 and hopped in his car, it was pretty cool, I didn't appreciate it at the time because I was young. Wish I was at this one.

 

if I remember correctly he finished 4th at the 600 and was kind of cocky after the race

 

Yea I think in 99 he finished 8th and 6th and in 01 he finished 6th and 4th. Or something close to that. Stewarts always cocky.

 

he's a little more humble than he used to be.

 

Great start for Danica

 

Yeah, she had a strong start, but did fade a bit more than I had hoped. I don't know how they set up the car, if for the start, or for the cooler track when the sun goes down. These are the tracks that she needs to really get her skill locked in. She can't rely on superspeedways. Got my fingers crossed tonight.

 

Is the leader even on the lead lap anymore?

 

Ugh. I hate blown engines. I had heard that Danica and Kurt were running Roush engines? I had thought the entire Stewart Haas team ran Hendrick engines.

 

No, they all running Hendrick engines. Good race for the 600 although I would've liked to see a caution there at the end, Harvick was doing some unbelievable driving there at the end.

 

For those who watched the whole race how was it? I watched portions of it and thought it was kind of boring although any race where the 48 team seems to be in control seems boring to me. Heard DW let out a little squeal when one of the cars bottomed out for a split second and he saw a spark thought that was odd coming from an ex-driver. I also noticed quite a few empty seats in the stands.

 

See, I thought so, but in the post interviews there was talk that this race they both had Roush engines. That is why I was curious. Perhaps someone misspoke.

 

NASCAR stopped reporting attendance estimates, but yea, the attendance looked down. I thought it was a typical 600, long, not many wrecks or cautions, fuel strategy for the finish, it was cool to see harvick chase them down at the end.

This leads me to another point I wished nascar would change; I think 400 miles is plenty for any race except the Daytona 500 and World 600.

 

The longer the race, the more concessions they can sell! lmao.

 

True!

And I edited my previous post from "keeping" to "reporting" key word there!
