Atlanta race thread

[Sleestak]

so i thought the truck race ending was a sheeeet show.
the dirt race at knoxville had 10 laps to go and an hour later they still hadn't finished.
the big one broke out and caused a super long red flag.
one of the drivers came out of the care center and said that they should be at iowa speedway instead of the dirt in knoxville iowa.
the bristol dirt race wasn't good and now this.
they need to try eldoro again and at least tony stewart will make the track raceable at the end with proper care.

They just need to stay on asphalt.

Haven’t been around as much this year (life been crazy) but after a meh year..on a 4-race 300 streak. Hopefully I can extend it to 5

Thinking

9

24-1 ( maybe 8)

47

1 or 8 is the question. Had 18 in there but realized I rather run him next week. And prefer not to burn through my 18s too much before the playoffs. I think 8 been better on intermediate tracks but the 1 car seem to be coming on strong of late with his performance

Truex car has failed tech twice and he will drop to the rear today. Appears to be the only car in the garage that still needs to get through tech.

Truex issue was deck lid too high on first time and then when fixed that, tail was out of compliance. Team going through on third try now. Will have to drop to the rear.

Truex car passed on third time through.

I agree with that move.

I agree with that move.

I think Reddick simply been really good on this type of track. Both have momentum. Also Atlanta right in Tyler’s wheelhouse

Wow! Did not see that result coming at all. It's been a really weird racing season this year.

For a change I picked the winner! Of course I also used up a hoarded Larson start and look what happened there.

Yeah that sucked. Suarez was very good in the spring. He started 27th and was moving forward. Stenhouse started 16th and was going backwards when they crossed paths in that mess.
