Howard The Dork posted:Did Goodyear make a new tire that is causing all the “marbles”? They seem to be a new problem this year. Or is that all from the resin? All resin, that was the same tire they used at Bristol last fall. The track just didn't take any rubber. That was fun, can't believe that last run went green as long as it did. Props to NASCAR for not throwing a caution when there were probably like eight excuses to do it when people started getting flat tires.

Some wild moments. Was hoping the Gibbs cars would start fighting and/or use up there stuff allowing Brad to get it. He's gonna win [at least] one this year I can feel it.

As a newcomer, that was really fun - close-ish finish and it was wild to see the speed difference between the guys on different tire strategies. Just as good of a race as Atlanta, imo

Do yall think theyll use the resin again for the night race or go back to the Pj1?

I think that the lower line is better racing but I have no proof other than "It's like they used to".

mearn posted:All resin, that was the same tire they used at Bristol last fall. The track just didn't take any rubber. I was listening to Denny's podcast today and his eventual conclusion was that it had to be a track temperature thing because people were blaming the resin but there wasn't resin in the middle/top and they didn't take any rubber either. He initially thought the new tires had something wrong in the mix to make them wear so much compared to old tires but they said on the broadcast that the extra set that was approved were holdovers from last year and they wore just as bad. Air temp is all I could find data for and at race start yesterday it was around 60F and in the fall race at race start it was around 75F so that could have played a factor. You figure they don't actually have any Bristol tire wear trends or stats for the spring from the last 3 years due to the dirt race.

Ungratek posted:Feel like this is the fourth or fifth time Bell needed one more lap to win You're dreaming, Bell needed 6-7 more to close the distance and pull off the overtake. Byron was nursing those tires and brakes in case he needed to defend, he had plenty left to hold off anybody getting close.

Hopefully we can get some of that Bristol tire shredding magic at Richmond.

it seems like nascar thinks there are denny hamlin fans out there that will be mad if they apply the rules to him or something. jeff gluck is the only denny hamlin fan. you can park him every week nobody would get mad.

If we have to suffer through a dominant season by Denny only for him to finish 2 seconds back in the championship race, so be it. Sign me up.
