not too long abgo in the nationwide race here ELLIOT SADLER won this race at +3500



he doesnt deserve any respect lets just face it

[Optional]

Poor Elliot had his second chance. Nice guy, but he's lost all confidence in himself i reckon.

Not sure who he blew to take that awesome ride for 2014.

[5mike5]

he vegas or jamc or somenosy reading this tihjy now: (know optional has diff phone so that's why i didnt mention asking you pa )

When im typing on my I=-Phone (4s) is there a way to lock in a caps lock so i dont have the arrow and the Letter every single fukkin damn time it?!?!??!?!??!

i know there has to be and one of u computer/Iphone nerds know how to do this

give me the information...thanks

[Optional]

Not an apple nerd.

But I'd guess you touch and hold the Shift key for a moment, until it locks onto caps.

[Jmac926]

Will see if the high line ever comes in the NW race today. If it just marbles up like its doing, the outside could be the bad line and we might see 10+ cautions tomorrow and 2+ after race fights

Mike: if you double-tap the UP ARROW key right next to the "Z" on the keyboard it will turn completely shaded and thats when caps-lock is on. The key is to double tap to lock caps lock instead of just single tap to capitalize one letter. Hope that helps!

oh were gonna see tempers flare....

but remember last year is swaer when i was watching last years races, that the top groove became the groove of choice because they bottom line could rarely clear them...am i wrong here?

thats why everybody was choosing the outside lane on restartsm and why kyle won there

now, if the drivers care can pass from the top OR/AND the bottom then ur gonna be hard to beat today

did the track and tire combination changes they have made make THIS big of a difference in gorrove??

well not that i think about it some more, i think wghen the track gets really rubbered in then we will see some guys by the wall....thats why we really didnt see ity in practice esterday...maybe today but i doubt they would risk it against the wall

im tapping thr wrrow key 2 times and mine still wont do it...drives me crazy

i se the srrow (one poinnt up of bottom left hand side)

i see it turn a shade of dark grey but just when i start a sentence and when i manually push it 1 time to get 1 capitalized letter

any other ideas?

and thanks for your help in this...if any1 doesn't know, i'm not a tech guy at all...still hunt and peck usually cause im faster and why i misspell works alot.(as if u hadnt noticed)..and spellchecker if im on my ihopne..LMAO

[milehigh]

So...if the arrow itself is dark gray that means its just going to capitalize the next letter. If the key itself (the box around the arrow) is gray, and arrow is white, that means its in caps lock and you shouldn't have to touch it again and just type away.

If that doesn't work, there's whiskey.

Just depends if that top takes rubber, right now its not its just marbles up there. Will learn alot today in the nw race, but when it rains it will wash it all away and take half the race for it to rubber in again.

[GP]

Mike, double-tap on the Shift key on the iPhone's keyboard. It will turn blue, indicating caps lock is on.

[GP]

Today:

Kyle +175
Larson -150 ov T. Dillon

NW starting grid:

yeah ur right about the marbles didnt think about them and they even talked about it alot yesterday...must be a new compound tire, or just setups of the car have something to do with it...who knows but i'm pretty sure ur right

if nothing else, watching what happens to the track conditions today will really go along way to telling us about tomorrow, at least by the end of the race....

if there is a race tomorrow, if all the rubber gets washed away all bets are off...those cars didnt look steady driving all alone away from any and everybody

im getting ready to give my nationwide race weather forecast...hold briefly, hopefully at least tomorrow has improved

on a good note its sunshine everywhere, only a few white clouds in the sky, and almost 60 degrees already...beautiful morning....but again im about 150 miles away from the racetrack itself but still

[5mike5]

NW starting grid:

1 Kyle Larson
2 Kyle Busch
3 Matt Kenseth
4 Brian Scott
5 Ryan Blaney
6 Kevin Harvick

LARSON ON THE POLE BABAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and look at my longershot BRIAN SCOTT up there in 4th!!!!!

sure did make a GREAT decision on adding BRIAN SCOTT (+1450) this morning and betting POLE WINNER KYLE LARSON (+1200) day after openers...missed the (+1500) but that not by much...YES SIR!!!

hopefully this makes my decisions on KYLE B. and KENNSETH decisons easier..
looking like 2 parlays which im fine with...matts odds maybe too low starting 3rd....either would make for a HUGE CUP parlay on the line tomorrow, cause i would make sure whatever i picked paid big...but 1 stop at a time here

COULD BE A HUUUGE DAY BOYS!!!

[5mike5]

i am probably betting more $$$ today on this nationwide race with winners and parlays than i will all year long, until the triple header night weekend in august for the BRISTOL NIGHT RACE!!!!!!seems like i do this every year and win, lose, or draw i love it!!!!!!!

same with CUP, be my biggest bets of the year so far...least a little more than usual and probably and extra parlay or 2 for fun and possible big payoffs overall...bet around same it seems almost everywhere but here i know i bet more $$$$$ for better or worse!

[Optional]

I didnt rewatch the race, but pretty sure we had this conversation last race here and it turned out the top groove rubbered up much faster than anyone expected.

[5mike5]

never mind GP, im fukking blind i guess....

i see Kyle Busch is starting on the front row

Damn it...this might even be unparlable for me at close to -110., and don't be surprised if it isnt

OPTIONAL you are dead on right we did talk about it my friend...

i was just reading out thread from last season

that top groove was basically the only way to win.....and restarting 2nd and 3rd SUCKED.....

if caution came out and u were in 2nd u were pissed unless they pitted....

REMEMBER teams and drivers were purposely LETTING CARS PASS THEM to make sure they started in the outside lane!!!!

glad u mentioned that Optional...at least from the Sprint Cup races i remember all that.....i dont rewatch nationwide or tricks ever so wouldnt remember anything about that...except we won

[Optional]

I was thinking the Cup race too.

Did you see what BadNina said in game thread? She sounds pretty sure we are looking at a Monday race.

[Codasintehhouse]

Kenseth said after NW qualifying that the new tires aren't putting rubber down and cars are terrible to drive.

drivers arent ever happy

thankfully CUP tires are different compund and should easily rubber it in after a few 100 laps

NOT AS BAD

dropped to just a 50% chance of rain now, down from 70% chance as of yesterday evening....still not great or a good outlook, but chances have decreased at least..

.its beautigful here this morning...suns out, its just warm enough in the low 50's and not a cloud in the sky except a few puffy white ones

Is it just me or does Matt seem like he hasn't been happy every week so far?

[Optional]

Both series same tires. So if there is an issue with rubbering up will probably be the same for Cup

[5mike5]

Today in BRISTOL its gonna be a BEAUTIFUL day of racing

highs just in the upper 50s maybe very low 60s....

sunny all day with just a passing white cloud or 2

and ONLY !)% chance of rain now for nationwide race, down from 30% chance of rain yesterday eveing

Notes: Teams in both the NASCAR Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series will run the same tire codes at Bristol this week . . . this is the first time NASCAR teams have run this tire combination at Bristol, though they did run this left-side tire code (D-4564) at New Hampshire last season . . . this tire set-up came out of a Goodyear test at Bristol last September 17 . . . teams participating in that test were the No. 33 Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet (Paul Menard) from the Sprint Cup Series and the No. 6 Roush Fenway Ford, No. 7 JR Motorsports Chevrolet and No. 54 Kyle Busch Motorsports Toyota from the Nationwide Series

thought i heard they changed 1 or the other

guess im wrong

[5mike5]

and remember, the CUP race is much much longer than the nationwide race will be

DOUBLE the laps (just 250 laps today, 500 laps tomorrow) so might not be as bad..

we shall see

I doubt there will be any problem. I bet they are running the top lane by lap 60 or 70 in this race.

yeah ur probably right

makes for some amazing side by side racing i know that....

probablythe best of the season, at least close to it imo

[Codasintehhouse]

Kenseth has not been happy at all this year for some reason lol, I don't see how the upper groove can come in the way these tires make marbles. Gonna be a lot of cautions IMO
