Heartbreak for Toyota at LeMans. Ran out of power on the last lap while in the lead. Passed by the second place Porsche.

Sam Hornish Jr. wins the XFINITY race after getting a call to run it about a week ago. He's been a substitute Charlotte school teacher this winter/spring, BTW after losing the Petty ride

 

[Wolfman21]

So a guy who's been a substitute teacher all year gets a call a week ago to turn his first laps of the year and wins the race. Lol...proves you could put anyone in those Gibbs Toyotas and win

 

[Iron]

Doesn't hurt Iowa is probably Sam's best track in NASCAR.

 

[Bdub]

Indycar drivers put in strong showing at LeMans and Ford is back.

Formula 1 was boring as hell this week but at least Hamilton didn't win. I enjoy listening to him have a mid race meltdown whenever things don't go perfectly his way.

 

[Iron]

JWT went after Spencer Gallagher, and then bodyslammed him onto the pavement. What the fuck is happening at Gateway?

 

[Iron]

Worst, maybe weirdest fight ever

 

[JAR201166]

nice ddt

 

[Borman]

Looks like JWT went for a DDT on the pavement. Jake Roberts would be proud.

Tony trying to hold on. Got lucky on that pit stop. Go smoke.

 

[Hollywood]

Tony up front with six to go. Prolly his last chance at a win.

 

[Hollywood]

Not a big Stewart fan, but I hate Hamlin. Hope Stewart can hold him off.

 

[Hollywood]

LOL. I told my wife as soon as Hamlin moved him: "Wanna see a wreck? Watch the last turn"

 

[Iron]

I'm not surprised Denny took turn 11 like that, otherwise he would have been junked. Stewart would have gave no fucks at that point

 

[goblue96]

Tony would have driven Hamlin beyond pit road to get that win.

 

[Wolfman21]

Everyone and their grandma knew what was gonna happen in turn 11

 

[MSUFanatic]

Tony Stewart would have killed Hamlin to get the win...

 

[Wolfman21]

Wtf...I hate restrict or plate races. There's always bullshit at the end

Brian France approves of tonight's Game 7 Excitement.

 

[gilstein21]

why in the hell would they wait until leaving turn 4 to throw the caution?

 

[goblue96]

60% of thunderstorms tonight in Daytona. I say it every year, there's a reason why this race was run at 10 am.

 

[Wolfman21]

They were gonna race back to line but one of the drivers involve in the wreck requested medical assistance when they were in turn 4... So they had to stop it

Why does Rick Allen keep saying, "if there's a wreck, we'll break out of commercial"? i can't even put into words the issue I have with saying that, much less multiple times.

Race has had a whole lotta commercials but normally at this point last year NBC went commercial free to the end

 

[goblue96]

Accident and no cut away. Guess that doesn't apply to NBC "non-stop"

 

[Hollywood]

Daytona is a goddamn snoozefest.

The last lap of the F1 race had more excitement than the entire 400 at Daytona.

If only Rosberg would have taken Hamilton out.

Restrictor plate racing sucks.

 

[Wolfman21]

fuckin truex and fuckin blaney...cot damn.

 

[Hollywood]

I didn't see what happened. Saw the first 30 laps or so, then tuned back in and Elliott and Blaney were out.

Got to see Jimmie wreck doe, that made my night.

Chase had a good pit stop to restart 4th. Tried bout loses it in turn one...slows chase up. Chase goes into 3 on the outside of 3 wide and Blaney loses it collecting him.

So Jeff Gordon will replace Dale Jr. in the 88 at Indianapolis if Junior isn't ready to race. And by most accounts, he won't be.

I missed something, what's wrong with Jr?

Concussion-like symptoms. Alex Bowman will drive the 88 at New Hampshire this Sunday.

 

[Iron]

If they think Jr. was going to run next week, they would have said "we'll evaluate early next week" or said Bowman was going to stand-in if needed. This might be a little more than just a race or two.

 

[gilstein21]

Ya this is pretty big. Could even be the end for Jr.

 

[Wolfman21]

I won't go that far but I'd bet Gordon is in the 88 for Indy.

 

[Wolfman21]

Fuck a fucking truex, cot damn son of a bitch. If you've got no fucking clutch get off the fucking track you piece of fucking shit. Two races in a row your bullshit has taken the 24 out

 

[Iron]

Dave Moody reports Jeff Gordon is in the #88 this week. Hendrick to release official news in 25 minutes.

 

[Iron]

Gordon driving at least the next two races in the 88.

 

[gilstein21]

Brian France has Gordon and smoke side by side coming out of turn 4 to the checker
