his car owner
is steaming right now

[shaunovery]

early thoughts fellas

[5mike5]

too soon to tell anything imo

i agree with Opti rain probably evens out the tire deal...

and all these cautions will probably make it not near as hard for guys that started last to get into top 10 fairly qucik if they have great cars

[shaunovery]

48 in the pitts probably getting retting for caution at lap 20

[5mike5]

lots of cars pitted that time

[5mike5]

competition caution will only be on lap 25 now

[Optional]

Jimmie coming like Jaws

[shaunovery]

iffle looks fast jimmys coming

[5mike5]

i hope so but p[assing 25-43 no big deal

we need him passing the big boys

[5mike5]

this is going to be a GREAT race it looks like

going to be ALOT of stategy

[shaunovery]

wow hardly now one taking tyres

[5mike5]

yeah these chiefs knew what was going to happen

nobody going to give up that much track position this early

[shaunovery]

are we still having another caution at 45

[5mike5]

are we still having another caution at 45

not sure

not sure why they would

[shaunovery]

lap 50 now

[5mike5]

lap 50 now

thank you Shaun

[5mike5]

kennseth said he hated those new left side tires, but hes looking ok imo

[5mike5]

early note

*looks to me like getting new tires dont mean much of anything after even 15 laps

i agree maybe things change with a long run

[shaunovery]

hamlin in the top 10 i noticed his times were just as fast as the leaders before the caution

[5mike5]

yeah still way too early to tell...

track is going to TOTALLY change anyways once it gets rubbered in

[5mike5]

blisters all over jimmys back right tires

NOT good

[MatI]

Thanks for the txt opti! I was too out of it to hear it though, but the alarm got me. Missed the first 50 but look like all the contenders are still in the race.

Marcos still up front too.

He was looking FIIIIIINE during the first run you missed. Kenseth couldnt get away at all like Biffle has

[shaunovery]

All good Mike. Looking at how wet the track was when I went to bed, I thought they would STILL be drying it now! It's good to see they are racing, and nice and sunny too..

[5mike5]

DALR JR. has a flat out ROCKETSHIP

spring rubber made that big a difference? wow

[MatI]

He was looking FIIIIIINE during the first run you missed. Kenseth couldnt get away at all like Biffle has

He says 'I am so $&#@ loose!' Still fast though!

[5mike5]

he will have to wait til next weekend to win a race

glad i didnt fade him in any H2H though...hes looked great last 2 weeks...good sign going into road course

[Optional]

The sniff of a win has him arced up
