Nascar discussion *Contains spoilers*

montoya omg nooo

He lost it all by himself ... Biffle made 4 tyres. JPM still has rough edges.

2 tyres doesn't work here. Never has, never will.

Musical chairs for 2011

Bobby Labonte takes over the #57 from Ambrose.
Ambrose looking likely to take Kahnes vacated seat, #9
Kahne looking likely to be in a 3rd Stewart Haas car for 2011, before moving to Hendrick for 2012.

Thats good for Ambrose right?? That car has had good results! But is it Kahne or is the team capable of that too?

Should be a step up for Ambrose, but you never know with RPM. Kahnes awesome, but RPM is less so.

Good news then!

What does Pocono race like? Not heard great things about it so far... But then I enjoyed Indy (i guess because JPM was leading most of it!)

I preferred Pocono before NASCAR locked the ratios, and you had some drivers shifting into 3rd and some opting to stay in 4th. Now the engines bog down too much and the racing isn't as varied. Pocono should be much cooler than it actually is. It never seems to provide the racing it promises. But we'll see.

Mark Martin went old school on gear setup... he was downshifting in last corner

really really hope Harvick wins the championship if not, then Gordon

The ratios are locked, you can't. He'd only have been shifting down if the engine wasn't producing the power at low revs.

Missed some of the race, but apparently Gordon and JPM had a good short battle, and I want to see Sadlers crash.

From what I saw wasnt a great race, still beats Hungary though.

Slash - Id like it to be Gordon or Hamlin (he seems an awesome driver!!!).

Anyone but Kyle and Jimmie and im happy :p

Also, why is scott speed still in it? He's a c*ck and not that great! When Webber retires from F1 he should go to RBR's nascar team. He suits it :p

Sadlers crash wasn't quite as bad as it looked. It was a massive impact, but the camera view makes it look like the barrier he hit was at a 90deg angle, it wasn't, it was 15-20deg. But still, it was huge. If it was a 90 deg impact, he'd be in hospital.

haha me too, i've never supported Hamlin but if it's down to Bush and him he has all my support!

Watkins glen this weekend!!

Piquet Jnr and Jacques running in the nationwide race . Dont expect anything other than wrecks from Piquet, but maybe Jacques can go one better than in Road America? Though the field looks better for this... Ron Fellows and Ambrose are racing both nationwide and sprintcup!

my prediction ... Ambrose to take both wins whilst ... Cup race should be awesome to watch though. Most of the cup guys seem pretty awesome road racers anyway and seeing as though Watkins isnt nearly as technical as Sonoma it should be a close fight. I think the chase is out of the question for JPM now, so anything less than a win is a disapointment for me....

Thanks!

It would be nice to see either Montoya or Ambrose win.

Potentially great battle forming. Got Montoya, Allmendinger and Ambrose 1-2-3 with Tony Stewart and Boris on the move into the top 10. If it doesn't get too messy it should be awesome.

Even I'm watching a NASCAR race (I hate streams, or I'd watch more ).

Bump drafting (well, bumping) through the Loop. :P
