They should at least make Kyle go to the rear every restart. It'd be fun to watch him slice through the field anyways.

They did once, but only cos we begged them to, to only find me, you and the Keystone Cops stayed up to watch it.

Oh there's a race on? GW Kyle.

Heh, was that during the Carlton Kirby, Mr Text kinda era? :p

It's actually 10 years since their first attempt at a live NASCAR race as I said a couple of pages back, has anyone told them? :p

Smoke is dangerous, that amount of tyre smoke contained completely within the apron can have a dangerously distracting affect on the cars behind. They might glance down and ALMOST lose control as they wonder where that smoke comes from.

Oh well, I'm not tuning into this shit to watch Kyle Busch walk the field, I'll take it tbh.

I rather enjoyed Jeff Burton in the commentary booth.

Is it just me, or is Mike Wallace one of the most difficult cars to lap?

Looked like Dillon started leaving his pit stall before they dropped the jack, that looked hairy.

It's hard to watch this race after DEGA...

DEGA gets your hopes up for such instant action, lap after lap of constant excitement like you're watching an edited highlights show and they've edited out all the natural lulls, the build up parts and the wind down parts, that when you see a more "standard" race such as this (still on a tast track too) it just seems dull....

OK it's not helping that Kyle is smoking the field either....

As I say that, WREX

Did they show a replay of that crash? I didn't get to see if they did or not because the stream host's auto channel change went on to another channel and it was a min or 2 before he could put it back. :?

No caution?

Sadler halfspins = caution
Bayne slamming the wall and probably dropping parts = no caution
