+sunsetmeadowlark Posted June 22, 2009 Posted June 22, 2009 You still picked the right one Gatoulis. Tony is an AWESOME Road Racer. Kasey Kahne has NEVER done well at road corses and then he goes and wins . SHEER LUCK!!!!!! Doh, I almost picked him but didn't like his stats so I decided to stick with one of the Busch boys. Ah well...

+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Invocation given, Miss NH sang the national anthem and now GENTLEMEN START YOUR ENGINES!!
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 One of the Busch brothers Kurt to be exact. finally got around Jeff Gordon to take the lead in lap 7 No TNT (actually no cable at all) so I will try race buddy and see how that is LOL
+summerandnana Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Holy Moly race fans, Mr Busch wants to lead this race in the worst way. There he goes------------------
+summerandnana Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Double file restart, let's see what Jeff does this time
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 16 -- YELLOW FLAG NO. 1: Patrick Carpentier smacks the wall in Turn 4 bringing out the caution. No free pass is given.
+summerandnana Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Restart, Jeff takes the lead, OH no look out McMurray hits the wall
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 (edited) Lap 23 -- Denny Hamlin, Elliott Sadler and A.J. Allmendinger among the handful of cars to pit. Hamlin's crew pull a spring rubber. Lap 21 -- YELLOW FLAG NO. 2: Jamie McMurray gets bumped by Kevin Harvick in Turn 4 and smacks the wall. No free pass is given. Lap 20 -- LEAD CHANGE: Outside line proves fast again as Jeff Gordon takes the lead in Turn 4. Lap 19 -- GREEN FLAG: Kurt Busch brings the field to the green. 1. Kurt Busch 2. Jeff Gordon 3. Greg Biffle 4. Jimmie Johnson 5. Carl Edwards Lap 18 -- Michael Waltrip too fast exiting pit road and will start at the tail end of the longest line. Ok that car smacking the wall to cause the caution may have been helped along by Kenvin Hrvick. I hate to say that as he is my pick today Race buddy isn't too bad so far Edited June 28, 2009 by LadyBee4T
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Golly gee whiz anopther caution!! 44 stalled too Lap 27 -- YELLOW FLAG NO. 3: A.J. Allmendinger spins around bringing out the caution. No free pass is given.

+summerandnana Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Holy Nascar, another yellow flag. Local boy. Allmendinger spins

+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Having troubles with this site right now lap 32 with avg speed of 83.67 Lap 33 -- Dave Blaney and Tony Raines take their cars to the garage. Lap 32 -- LEAD CHANGE: Kurt Busch gets a great start on the outside and takes the lead.
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 I think it is on lap 44 that there is a "competition" caution. I'll have to look that up. I'm not too sure what that means LOL
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 I guess its for lap 45 NASCAR will occasionally enact a "competition caution" for teams to check tire wear. This is usually predetermined prior to the start of a race, and many times is contingent upon whether the yellow flag is thrown for other reasons, prior to the lap that the "competition caution" is scheduled to be thrown.
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Well its either 44 for the caution 46 lap avg speed 93.097
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Green again Lap 48 -- LEAD CHANGE: David Gilliland stays out and earns five important bonus points while Elliott Sadler, Joe Nemechek and John Andretti pit. Lap 47 -- LEAD CHANGE: Elliott Sadler, Joe Nemechek, David Gilliland and John Andretti stay out while everyone else hits pit road. Sadler credited with the lead. • Jimmie Johnson with two tires and a track bar adjustment • Kurt Busch with two tires • Jeff Gordon with two tires • Carl Edwards with a four-tire stop Sorry I don't have any jokes to add
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Here's a tidbit that I didn't know but I bet you race fans all know! LOL . A "tight" condition means the car is "pushing", and is difficult to turn, the driver must reduce speed to compensate. A "loose" race car is one that turns too much, and the rear end of the car wants to swing out.
+summerandnana Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Holy Nascar, another yellow flag. Local boy. Allmendinger spins
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 55 -- Jamie McMurray takes his No. 26 Ford to the garage. David Gilliland also takes his car to the garage. Lap 53 -- Greg Biffle hits the wall hard in Turn 4 but keeps his car going. Lap 52 -- Jamie McMurray back on pit road for an extended stop for repairs. Lap 50 -- LEAD CHANGE: Jimmie Johnson pulls away on the outside and takes the lead.
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 60 ANOTHER caution! Jimmie Jonhson has a 1.4 second lead
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Car to the garage Back to Green Lap 63 -- GREEN FLAG: Jimmie Johnson brings the field to the green. 1. Jimmie Johnson 2. Jeff Gordon 3. Kyle Busch 4. Kurt Busch 5. Mark Martin
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Since we've had so many cautions here's another tidbit Green flag next time around. The lights are turned off on the pace car, to remind the drivers that they will be taking the green flag at the conclusion of that pace lap.
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 76 Jimmie Johnson Jeff Gordon Tony Stewert Kurt busch Kyle Busch (I wonder how much competition there is between the brothers?)
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 83 avg speed 96.595 4 leaders 10 lead changes 5 cautions Right now Jimmie Johns speed is 126.270 and he has led 36 laps
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Lap 83 avg speed 96.595 4 leaders 10 lead changes 5 cautions Right now Jimmie Johnson's speed is 126.270 and he has led 36 laps
+LadyBee4T Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Why did NASCAR switch from white letter tires to yellow letter tires? Photography reasons. Goodyear switched to the yellow lettered tires because the yellow does not blur as easily when photographed at high speeds like the white letters did. Advertising is everything. Interesting! LOL
+Dark Elf Posted June 28, 2009 Posted June 28, 2009 Hmmm...Jimmie leads...but i don' think he will win...because when he wins i would win, too and thats not possible:( Until now only bad luck for me
