Wouldn't be the first time either. Remember the hurricane that screwed with the MotoGP weekend at Indy some years ago? One race got even cancelled back then.

There was also a Pinks All Out event at Indy that was pushed back a day due to a tornado warning.

Trevor Bayne brings out the caution.

Jeff Gordon is on a mission today!

 

[Müle]

"Kasey, Jeff is faster. Than. You. Can you confirm the message?"

"Kasey, let Jeff past for the championchip"

 

[GTPorsche]

Was that Montoya's crew trying to get a jump on everyone and hope they can pull out a victory?

Good luck beating the 5 and 24 today...

 

[Müle]

Gordon's faster but keeps getting the door slammed shut.

Kahne is close on fuel. Gordon's trying to push him harder in the case that the race stays green.

 

[GTPorsche]

This is going to be an interesting finish.

Edit: Jeff is clearly faster, but without being able to make a move before the corner, he's going to need traffic to get the advantage he needs to make the pass.

Caution. This changes everything.

 

[The Bman]

Caution. This changes everything.

Yet again caused by a BK Racing car.

That apparently didn't know how to get to the pitlane.

Again....

 

[Jahgee]

I'm ready for Jeff to lose around 4 spots this restart

Boycott Burger K...

*family brings Whoppers*

Never mind.

 

[GTPorsche]

Not sure if those cars that pitted will make a difference in this.

Jeff just needs to make sure he doesn't botch the restart like he's been prone to do all year.

Jeff just needs to make sure he doesn't botch the restart like he's been prone to do since they made double file restarts.

FTFY

 

[GTPorsche]

And there we go.

 

[Jahgee]

Oh ****, the exact opposite of what I thought was gonna happen happened

 

[Müle]

Yes.

Go away, Denny.

 

[GTPorsche]

I don't even think Kahne got a bad restart. Just got pinned down in the corner by Jeff and lost all his momentum.


Edit: Yeah.. he got lose coming out of turn 1.

 

[Jahgee]

If there's a caution

 

[GTPorsche]

"Mr. H." in Jeff's pitbox. Might as well call the race now...

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Well, whaddaya know, Jeff might deliver on that hype. This frankly stinks cuz I really wanted either Larson or Johnson (Junior typically doesn't do well here) to get this

 

[Jahgee]

May have to change the OP picture

 

[GTPorsche]

Both have been non-factors today.

 

[Müle]

IT'S HAPPENING

 

[nascarfan1400]

Hurray for Jeff! What an effort! Great job!

 

[Jahgee]

 

[Müle]

IT HAPPENED

 

[Jahgee]

 

[AMPMROCKETFANN]

Both have been non-factors today.

True on Johnson (14th) but I genuinely thought there was hope for Larson. Well, good on him for 7th.

 

[GTPorsche]

That win puts him with the record for most wins on the oval and ties him with some guy named Michael Schumacher for most wins at the facility.
