So how much fuel did JJ save by farking with his starter every three seconds?

It can't be that much, can it?

Dumb-Ass-Monkey		2012-05-12 10:24:01 PM

C'mon Kyle, wreck JJ!

About 1-2 laps worth.

Oh no - Allmendinger has damage. Bring him in for 4 tires, fuel, an affirmation and some Prozac

his interview last week made him look like a whiney biatch. lost a lot of respect points for those shenanigans.

Sorry I'm late; picked up some OT at work.

Which means I'm stuck with a supervisor who insists there's a conspiracy to screw Jeff Gordon. Tonight's theory: Gordon's problems are Jimmie Johnson's fault because Jimmie keeps stealing all Jeff's good parts.

yeah, and mcmurray could have slowed down.

I thought JJ's crew was tossing nails in Jeff's pit. :)

well, they stole his crew mid-race a while back, so that conspiracy theory isn't totally unfounded.

ClavellBCMI		2012-05-12 10:31:48 PM

And Chad Knaus has the 48 stay out again, telling him this was the game plan, stick with it? YES!!! Run him out of gas, Chad! Do it! DOOOO EEETTTTTT!!!!

There is no way he finishes on that tank of Sunoco Racing Fuel^TM in the Lowes #48 car sponsored by Lowes.

Chad Knaus is rolling the dice on fuel, with luck he runs out in turn 3 on the last lap and finishes 18th or worse.

With his luck, they will. That's a gambit that has worked maybe once for the 48. I'll take those odds!

How bad is the tire dropoff here now? I know they used do come for tires even after about 3 green laps, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore

radiofreewill		2012-05-12 10:41:45 PM

More conspiracy theories from my supervisor:

Gordon was screwed out of the '07 Championship so that NASCAR would have a young driver who was a 5-time champion to attract a younger demographic.

I finally (politely) excused myself to grab a cigarette.
