Phoenix is a fun track to race on the Play Station. GL, onlooker. I am looking at Edwards and Biffle. Maybe Burton, too. If I go that route, surely one of us will win. Klowski may be a good one.

edwards

[The General]

Cousin Carl was .235 faster than anyone in quals. Pretty good. Over 1.1 mph.

[jjgold]

Seems like Bush or Edwards win every one of these

Cousin Carl was .235 faster than anyone in quals. Pretty good. Over 1.1 mph.

that means he will get got in a wreck or have car trouble. Just saying that cause i would lean with Edwards also. Like Ragan at the price, if you could find top3 betting on this, he would be a good choice.
I'm on the sidelines.

Seems like Bush or Edwards win every one of these
GL

yeah in Nationwide it does seem that way.

[The General]

I look at the field bet and cannot fathom any of the others winning w/out a lot of wrecks, fuel mileage or mechanical issues to the 11 listed above.

Lets go rowdy

[The General]

There's Quite a debate among the NASCAR people as to whether the Cup regulars should be allowed to enter the Nationwide races.

I don't think they should. Once they make the jump to the cup, they shouldn't be allowed to race in the Nationwide. But until then...

I also like Biffle, but was up in the air between Harvick and Biffle, but I went with Harvick.

Edwards didn't get alot of practice time in because he wrecked in it.

[MilfDriller]

G, I thought you were announcing some sale that's going off at midnight tonight at Bashas Supermarket... I had no idea what this thread was about.

lol

[The General]

I'm so undecided, I'm passing and will tune in and hope for excitement. Tempted to take a shot on the field, but seems like literally throwing money away.

Enjoy the race guys.

Back and forth between NHL action.

That's funny.

Don't waste the money on the field. No chance on that.

As long as Biffle don't win, I will be cool. Because he is the one I left off my 3. I always hate when the driver I leave off wins the damn thing.

[The General]

Here was what I almost put out...

.5± Edwards ov Harvick -150
.5± Ragan ov Klowski 115
.5± Burton ov Biffle 115
.1 Field 1850

[onlooker]

I hope Burton beats Biffle. They should both finish in the top 10.

[The General]

Some nice camera angles. Good race track, IMO.

[onlooker]

Carl playing dirty. He just spun Waltrip.

[pico]

i got kyle bush beating carl edwards on head to head. 150 laps left, pretty close

[pico]

134 left. this is sorta like looking at the drying machine...goes around and around in circles.

[onlooker]

Kyle is two laps down now, he had a cut tire when he restarted 1st. He is just about to get a lap back if he can get past Edwards.

I think my only hope is Harvick in 3rd right now.

They are saying Edwards might have a bad rear end. I hope so.

[RogueScholar]

I don't think they should. Once they make the jump to the cup, they shouldn't be allowed to race in the Nationwide. But until then...

I also like Biffle, but was up in the air between Harvick and Biffle, but I went with Harvick.

Edwards didn't get alot of practice time in because he wrecked in it.

Well I feel in excellent company after reading this thread. I was up in the air between Harvick and Biffle too, and in the end I went with Biffle. He seems to be driving with more confidence than Harvick lately, and I love a driver with swagger.

And the debate about Cup drivers in the Nationwide is a pet peeve of mine. I liken it to Major Leaguers volunteering to play on a AAA roster on an off-day between home series, just asinine. The entire function of a minor league is to develop drivers that haven't ascended to the pinnacle of their sport. The Cup drivers need to leave these spots open to drivers who need the exposure far more for their career.

[pico]

still over 100 laps. i think i'll start to care when they have less than 20 laps to go...

[onlooker]

Biffle is running 2nd, and Harvick 3rd. But from the updates, Harvick is laying off for now. Good to hear.

[onlooker]

Edwards now having engine problems, and had the hood up in the pits. Lost many spots. Dropped to 15th.

Biffle 1st and Harvick 2nd.

[onlooker]

Kyle gets the lucky dog, and is back on the lead lap.

Just don't let Biffle win.

[pico]

Edwards now having engine problems, and had the hood up in the pits. Lost many spots. Dropped to 15th.

Biffle 1st and Harvick 2nd.

this seems like a lot of luck involved...

[onlooker]

this seems like a lot of luck involved...

Well he didn't have enough practice time today to see how that car was going to handle. So maybe they could of seen the problems with more practice and switched to a backup car. Who knows.

[pico]

83 laps to go...

busch in the lead lap

[pico]

edwards 6 laps down now...

i think busch will definitely finish before edwards

[onlooker]

Edwards is behind the wall.

[pico]

edwrads is stuck in the pits. 9 laps down. i think he might just drop out.

[pico]

11 laps down...

at which point he'll just call it a day?
