looks like the fords are the best pushers and the dodges and chevys are the best getting pushed fords seam to not overheat as fast.with that how do we get a ford to go with our dodge??
fingers crossed but not going to be a pretty race i am afraid.

I think it will be boring for about 400 miles then this two car duo will cause the big one.
Its hard enough to for a single car to move up now its two.

At the start, he's got two Fords in front of him (Biffle, Richardson) and two right behind him (Bayne, Ragan). Bayne was a damn good at pushing the 24 yesterday, until Jeff ran out of talent.

But who the hell knows who's going to hookup with each other. TOG assures us Robby has a plan, so I guess we'll just wait and see.

and with each bad pitstop or accident, somebody's plan goes out the window.

Yep. That's why I'm only looking at possibilities for the start of the race.

The #7 will have all day today to fix the car from yesterdays duel races & have it good to go for Saturday happy hour & final race tech inspection. A bunch of cars will not practice today.
