>>78155245
Same here. I remember watching him race in sportscars.
>>78155197
No. I've only been living here for like 2 years, I've tried several and I don't see the appeal. Everyone raves about them here but the hoagies I grew up with in Philly were still way better. And you can get those at the gas station.
So whatever happened with that dude calling Burrito out for cheating on his wife?
lmao
>>78155305

Austin Cindric's dad paid for a Rallycross ride and he took out Scott Speed for the win.
>>78155518

I'm convinced that Philly has the best bread in the entire country. When I was working in NYC I worked right across from a Philly bar that had all bread shipped in from Philly each day. I don't miss a lot about NYC but that place is one of the things I miss.

Also, thank christ that Austin's dad didn't decide to ship him off to Indycar like he had originally wanted, because he'd probably kill somebody driving like that.
>>78155703

Cindric isn't making any friends. Bad look for Brad's team, altho it's ending so whatev.

mfw Cindric gets a Penske ride in Xfinity next year and Briscoe is shipped back to ARCA
post yfw logan wins and gets encumbered
>>78155810
If he brings money he's guaranteed a ride. Economics of lower series pretty much make it a given. But I don't think Penske is gonna let go of Briscoe...he's too much of a talent.
>>78155760
>not just curb stomping Cindric for being the piece of shit he is
Somebody just needs to take one for the team and kick Cindrics teeth in to teach him a lesson already.
>>78155820
>>78155845
That's actually what NASCAR would prefer drivers do rather then destroy equipment (and cause possible injury). They have been much more "have at it boys" in recent years. Notice Kryle had nothing happen after that spergout at Vegas?
>>78155905
Nah, if you let drivers fight each other in pitlane you'd get pressure from the media to cut that shit out before we get NASCAR-sanctioned MMA fights between drivers at places like Bristol.
ARCA race at Salem starting soon, no TV because fucking MAV, but the website has a live audio stream. Orange Cone on the call.
>Hendrick isn't winning again this season.
>the old tony stewart move
>>78155747
>>78155810
I wonder if the only thing that kept Bread's truck team going this year was Tim Cindric or Penske forcing Austin into one of his trucks so he would have "experience" before they push him into xfinity next year.

I live in Toledo and went to the ARCA race this year. Thad moffitt hit that exact same block of foam this year.
Also for some reason the safety crew allowed a car to completely burn down in practice. They even held back crew members from all the teams who got their own fire extinguisher to put it out when they realized the safety guys weren't.

His plate-ringer teammates were only winning at Daytona and Talladega by the time he entered the cup series and he even managed to pretty consistently outperform Waltrip.
They're ignoring how much faster Junior and Bowyer will be than the field on that last 30 laps.

Chase Elliott is a pretty decent one-in-a-million chance pick too. He's had the most consistent speed of the HMS cars and if they suddenly figure shit out for the playoffs then he might, but probably won't, be a contender.

Truex probably was in some violation of the rules and since he couldn't win and damage/destroy the evidence with his "celebration" he needed to get wrecked to avoid a season ending penalty.
Looks like the new meme celebration will be doing donuts or powerslides around the interview truck...until some xfinity driver fucks it up and hits the truck.

Jimmie will cement himself as the GOAT if he can win this year.

Matt Kenseth taught Joey a valuable lesson, and he's been pretty straight ever since.
>>78163655
Are you talking about his crew member right, because he goes behind his fathers back every incident he is in

How will the 1990 Daytona 500 champion ever recover?
I wouldn't be surprised if Derrike Cope is still racing because he's horrifically in debt from all those fly-by-night teams he was involved with in the 2000s tbqh
>>78163954
>>78163975
Considering we can't even field a full race anymore, maybe Truex and his big money team with unlimited Toyota bux should shut the fuck up about the guys busting their ass to make minimum speed. Cope didn't bring it out on purpose.
>>78164022
Or all the plastic surgeries that his daughters had
HMS sent extra guys on the team to work on the 88 and 24 this week knowing the 48 and 5 were safe. It showed as both were really fast.
CGR takes Hendrick engines and outperforms them with a 2 car team.
FRR takes JGR engines and outperforms them with a 2 car team.
Is less cars so you have more resources per car the winning strategy in NASCAR right now?
That girl with McFlurry was super thicc. Probably getting free McDonald's
NASCAR reporters can ask some pretty uncomfortable to rude questions. Of course everyone knows Matt can still drive, why even imply he needs to prove it? The decision for a team is if they wanna pay for an expensive vet or a cheap young guy. It's not talent.
>>78164047
Cope hasn't had a lead lap finish since 1998, dude, and he's only had 47 lead lap finishes out of 422 races in 30 years. He's 58 years old, drives a shitbox, and has NO fucking business running at this level.
>>78164382
Then NASCAR should cut the field to 35 or 30. He's showing up and he's making minimum speed. For a sport that's fundamentally broken from an economics POV, someone driving with unlimited TRD money should back the hell off the guys who are actually busting their ass to attempt to field a full race.
>>78164140
Probably. All the behind the scenes crew members aren't stretched thin, and with the racing "business" taking a downturn recently there probably isn't a huge pool of talent out there to dedicate to 4 cars, drivers, pit crews, etc. Roush getting 2 wins this year and being semi-competitive is testament to that, as is the Wood Bros. success (although Blaney has a lot to do with that).
lmao...
>>78164202
post that thicc up
>>78164625
It's going to be a crime if Matt Kenseth isn't racing something next year
>>78164934
Economics are tough now. I mean obv you gotta pay a Brad, Jimmie Harvick or Kryle...but after that the line gets blurred.
I don't think Kenseth is at the top of his game, but he's obviously still a top 10 driver in the sport. Do you want to pay for that when you could take a run at a young and up and comer who will work for pennies on the dollar compared to a vet? Same question gonna be asked with Kurt, and every other vet sooner or later.
Only safe ones are Harv and Jimmie cuz they're not replaceable until they're ready to go. Like Jr. Rick woulda paid Jr to drive till he was 50 if he'd have signed the contract.
>>78165575
Oh and Menard is obviously safe because he's essentially a walking pot of gold.
>>78165575
>20 years ago a guy like Dave Marcus could race into his Social Security years
>nowadays these guys are getting shit canned out by their 40's
>>78165613
There's a few guys like that. Brendan Gaughan is the same way.
Suarez had a good rookie year no doubt, but it's hard to differentiate him from say, someone like Ty Dillon, just because he's driving in equipment that unloads better than 80% of the field. They can try to make their car awful and still outrun big money teams.
I want Suarez to succeed, but I'm not buying his rookie season at face value.
Put a guy like Jr or Bowyer in the 19 and they'd have 2+ wins easy.
You heard Kyle post race, he was fucking awful. Said they totally missed the entire setup and never even figured it out. He was a 5th-10th place car.
Don't be surprised if Brad makes it to Homestead. W/o Joey, he has all of Penske's resources behind him.
>>78165936
Dave Marcis drove for himself almost his entire career, if Kenseth started his own team he could not fire himself too.
