I had my doubts but man these opening laps are awesome. Larson is a beast.

WTF. Why is Bloomquist struggling? I thought he was the king of this stuff?

 

[SyxxSynse]

Bloomquist in last. That's surprising.

 

[doozer]

This is so damn cool.

Are they racing trucks or cement mixers? My god they are painfully slow.

They said he didn't have a front sway bar, while the other trucks do.

They are pretty slow. Good racing though.

Do you ever get the urge to make a post that isn't crotchety, snide or snappish?

They're slow. I can't help it or fix it. Sorry the truth is painful or hurtful or whatever for you.

 

[SyxxSynse]

50 laps in and caution free. I'm shocked. Absolutely shocked.

A simple "no" would have sufficed.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Darrell "Bubba" Wallace is moving up nicely.

 

[doozer]

A simple "no" would have sufficed.

I'm confident you'll get over it.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

They said he didn't have a front sway bar, while the other trucks do.

Yeah. But he hasn't exactly dazzled so far at any stage of this week. I wonder if the heavy trucks are too far out of his comfort zone for him?

 

[Nerd-Vol]

Time heals all wounds buddy.

 

[SyxxSynse]

It would seem so. Hell, Jon Wrecks Weekly is ahead of him.

 

[doozer]

Time heals all wounds buddy.

We can agree on something.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

We can agree on something.

That you're my buddy?

 

[Burhead]

If Larson keeps this up you might as well cancel the rest of the race.

 

[Nerd-Vol]

I think Bowyer got too much sun.

 

[Burhead]

I think Bowyer got too much sun.

Bowyer and Smoke should have been in the race JMO.

 

[bubbacurry1]

so what has their top speed been so far? About 40 mph? This is terrible, definately what I expected.

 

[doozer]

Eldora avg speeds:

WoO - 128
USAC - 105
Trucks - 87

Per my buddy.

I feel bad for the folks in this thread who aren't enjoying the race but bought televisions which only present one channel.

Me too. Good thing I've got two televisions in my living room.

That's madness!
