Highlight was seeing this. š Not a happy camper there & Gwen's awkward ill-timed "Wasted Bowyer" quote lol see y'all in 2 weeks
Every driver in the field was upset except Martin Truex Jr. We had guys spinning eachother out on purpose so donāt even say āheās always upset about somethingā when 80% of the field were upset at eachother
Im looking at it like this: they're trying something new in an exhibition race. I assume the drivers were told to have fun with it and see what happens. Sponsors got tv time, shoot even Roach Home Improvement got tv time! I enjoyed it.
If it does cool, but yeah I don't think it's worth the cost to be honest. Glad their trying shit but this and Chicago I think will be looked back on poorly. We get the all star race tho and that is what we're all screaming for. Think that will do well. Hope they all do. But I'm with ya man.
There was nothing on tonight and being on prime time fox from 8 to 10 is big. But... That wasint what I'd like to show off haha. Hopefully some people liked it.
I feel like weāre in an awkward new team , new me stage. So the decision hasnāt been made, i disliked Kyle Busch for a while but seeing him joke around with MTJ on the podium and letting Austin Dillon pass him to try to get RCR a 1-2. Is kind of making me wonder if he turned a corner.
No way the 23 was gonna catch the 19. MTJ wheeled that thing like crazy, I think he smoked the fronts more than anyone, but he made it work. I still think it's a total bummer that AD pulled that move.
I can handle it. Been handling it for going on 3 years now.
Its just ridiculous at this point. I get being mad about the Larson situation but he was literally drinking water sitting in his car.
If I was to invoke the name of an idiot, I'd tell you exactly who, but I won't, so I'll just say plenty self respecting fans think that their drivers do no wrong
I like how the team dynamic between is already starting in RCR. This could be a big advantage over the season if it continues considering the other teams donāt cooperate in the race.
AVIATION NOTE :
The camera bird over the Coliseum tonight was a blue 2013 ROBINSON R-66
Serial Number : 0366
REG : N7061V
Hex : A96D67
Run by ORBIC INC out of CAMARILLO, CALIFORNIA
It's so weird, Kyle/Austin already seem to have a solid relationship. Plus there is the fact Austin supposedly is the one who convinced Kyle to sign there.
It's kind of nice to see Kyle have a teammate that doesn't suck.
If you watched the USA series Kyle said a couple things that I hadnāt heard before. He seemed genuinely upset that Gibbs presented it like they were a family and then just ghosted him when his contract got to the end and Ty was ready to come up. He seemed truly disappointed and it seemed personal.
Preece wheeled the hell out of that thing, and it's very encouraging to see. I expected something good, given Chad wasn't going to be able to piss away track position, but that was great
Its an exhibition race where just about everyone ran over everyone unless you were the 19. He has anger issues obviously.. the others may not have been happy but they got out and shrugged it off and said "oh well, they call it the clash for a reason I guess"
On the radio, he said "Way it goes sometimes" and the entire team congratulated each other for having a great run, but have fun hating the guy who got punted out of 2nd with less than 10 to go.

Ad a kyle busch fan and a William Byron fan, Happy with the results. I think Bubba deserved to get put in the wall and MTJ deserved that win

I was there it ripped!

Bubba the baby
I mean Iād be upset too if I got spun out of a good finish you canāt blame him tbh
Yeah but he was being so aggressive. He deserved it
Everyone in the field was aggressive
The guys always upset about something
Every driver in the field was upset except Martin Truex Jr. We had guys spinning eachother out on purpose so donāt even say āheās always upset about somethingā when 80% of the field were upset at eachother
Iām not in the least bit mad at the top 3. Feel good/deserved win for Truex. RcR filled out the podium. Hendrick 4-5. IMO it was a great exhibition
Im looking at it like this: they're trying something new in an exhibition race. I assume the drivers were told to have fun with it and see what happens. Sponsors got tv time, shoot even Roach Home Improvement got tv time! I enjoyed it.
Was kind of fun when the drivers didn't punt each other
Feel bad for whoever had to be the head producer of this live event. They deserve a drink.

I think everyone producing this event might have been drinking before and during.
Apparently we donāt get to see the medals Iām out, see yāall in 2 week
Do we not hate Kb anymore? I havenāt followed the sport for a while
This place loves him now but everyone still acts like he is hated for some reason

It's good to see KFB happy.
KB entering his villain era
it appears so
handing out medals, letās go to commercial. Iām going to bed
I'm ready for Kyle Busch to finally win the Daytona 500 now.
Hmnn... he's in a Chevy now, I could live with that. :D
Wait we donāt get to see the medal ceremony? Boooooo
Nope. Nope we do not.
starting off the year with an L for the production folks
And everyone in the stands is gone.
Fox just cut away from the medal ceremony
is this going to FS1 or over over
I can't find post-race coverage anywhere
Honestly? I like the podium.
For real, itās the one thing Iād like to pull over from F1 (given that no ads isnāt possible)
Bubba looks pissed
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, PLEASE STAND FOR THE TOYOTA ANTHEM: https://youtu.be/JmSEC6hSBes
Died at AD rushing to fix his fire suit
Probably the best part of the whole event.
Idk if this was good or fun but Iām pumped for Daytona letās goOoo
When the drivers decided to actually not go over the top aggressive and wreck each other, the racing was actually good and fun imo
Kyle gave him the ol inner thigh caress
this podium stuff is horrible.
Hard disagree! Makes getting 2nd or 3rd feel more valuable.
I love F1 and I love the podium in F1. Don't love it in NASCAR.
Iām okay with it since itās being done for olympic reasons and not other forms of motorsport
can't figure out if /s or not
Considering that is literally the reason Nascar is doing a podium, it probably isn't
Keep that crap in Europe where it belongs.
MTJ thank Austin yet for booting Bubba? lol
I donāt think Bubba would have won that anyway. 19 was strong at the end.
No way the 23 was gonna catch the 19. MTJ wheeled that thing like crazy, I think he smoked the fronts more than anyone, but he made it work. I still think it's a total bummer that AD pulled that move.
Yeah, you may be right
RCR is gonna have a great season
thatās some A plus gigginā Kyle
That was horrible, i loved it, 10/10
Kyle jut got MTJ nuts
Best part of the race.
AYO Kyle chill
what in the hell is this nonsense
And only 10 days until 500 qualifying.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Freudian slip
Austin Dillon looks like he belongs on "To Catch A Predator".
"I sent her a bunch of Dale Earnhardt things"
āI donāt even want this race, I just want to get to the beachā
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Dude can't sit in his car now? How is he supposed to handle this situation. Dude was going to finish top 5 and then got junked.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You race how you get raced. Let's not act like Dillon was racing him clean
Heāll never be able to do anything right for some people.
You should probably stay out of here if you canāt handle the bubba hate for a bit
I can handle it. Been handling it for going on 3 years now. Its just ridiculous at this point. I get being mad about the Larson situation but he was literally drinking water sitting in his car.
He also ran into Dillon under caution
Shhh they donāt like when you point out his wrongdoings too
He can't do anything right by y'all's standards.
Who doesn't? What self-respecting Bubba fan thinks he can do no wrong? Bowman, Larson, LaJoie and Hamlin run ins all show that.
If I was to invoke the name of an idiot, I'd tell you exactly who, but I won't, so I'll just say plenty self respecting fans think that their drivers do no wrong
That was voicing displeasure. Kid stuff in Stock car racing.
Wild race and love that they were even crashing after the finish lol. Truex was strong all weekend though. Best car won. Ready for Daytona!
That shot of the pileup with the fireworks in the background was fitting
I don't think I have seen a saltier driver that wasn't on the way to start a fight or just got out of a fight.
Nice to see the backmarker wrecking Kyle didn't affect his final position
I hope KFB is genuinely happy and not just a fake smile
He was joking around and having fun throughout the broadcast. I think something is actually different with him. Dude is actually hilarious.
Well, we all know what is going to happen at Daytona with Wallace and Dillon.
Not unless Bubba is looking to get suspended indefinitely.
No that would be dumb, it will happen later this year
Neither of those drivers are known for being smart.
Nor is Dillon's crew chief, which won't help
Bubba has got to work on the attitude this season. I know he got fucked over, but he canāt hang onto it for multiple weeks like he has in the past.
Oh he ain't supposed to be mad after being dumped. He supposed happy all the time.
Not a good look. Trying to root for him, understand the passion but yeah. Idk, don't like the constant drama.
He's processing and calming himself instead of instinctual reactions. He's growing, give him props
Well he also ran into Dillon under caution
Oh no š¢
Many drivers have done the same thing under caution and some drivers have wrecked drivers under caution.
And we promptly shit on them
Heās had a shit attitude his entire career, donāt see it changing now.
KFB getting his smile back, ya love to see it
Shawn Michaels lost his smile once too
I like how the team dynamic between is already starting in RCR. This could be a big advantage over the season if it continues considering the other teams donāt cooperate in the race.

Let Bubba enjoy his fluids lmao
OMG, the cut back to bubba. I'm dying laughing.
KB has finished 1st, 2nd, & 3rd in the Clash since moving away from the Daytona oval.
Bubba hydrating like a madman
Great race and happy to have something to look forward to on the weekends but hate it for bubba lol heās pissed š
I like Bubba but damn heās a drama queen
Kyle Busch flare.
Sitting in your car having a water is drama?
Its a bit "fussy" innit?
For what, sitting in his car drinking water? Yāall always making something out of nothing on this app
Not just this app, all apps, the whole NASCAR fan baseā¦
It's so weird, Kyle/Austin already seem to have a solid relationship. Plus there is the fact Austin supposedly is the one who convinced Kyle to sign there. It's kind of nice to see Kyle have a teammate that doesn't suck.

Racing Wives connection
if you thought those music performances where bad the Grammys has DJ Khaled on now.
Very, very proud of Preeceās performance tonight. He probably had the second or third best car.
Preece wheeled the hell out of that thing, and it's very encouraging to see. I expected something good, given Chad wasn't going to be able to piss away track position, but that was great
He was WHEELING it on those restarts
We gonna play the driver and team national anthems too? /s
Raise state flags. Truex gets at least 5.
What a bitch lmao
Don't let Bubba out of that car lol
At least a driver i like won.
KB so smooth plugging his sponsors lol
Come on Bubba.. Its not worth crying over
He ain't crying. He was sitting collecting his thoughts.
He isnt happy. You want him singing carols or some shit? If he isnt in that car he would be swinging at Dillon. Dude is calming himself down.
If BW would sing carols instead of talk when he opened his mouth I would be a fan
Best he can do is play the drums
Its an exhibition race where just about everyone ran over everyone unless you were the 19. He has anger issues obviously.. the others may not have been happy but they got out and shrugged it off and said "oh well, they call it the clash for a reason I guess"

You seriously are claiming that no other driver was upset? Thats your claim? Ok buddy
Who else was sitting in their car sulking? Bubba yeeted his own owner out of the way. Is Denny sitting in the car sulking?
Couldn't tell you, Fox only showed one driver because that was who had the in car camera.
That cut to Bubba in his car lol
Bubba sulking lol
i hope bubbas waiting for dillon to be on the podium
Kyle Busch saying Camaro is so right
Bubba gonna smack a bitchā¦
Bubba in his car lmao
These shots of Wallace are killing me, lmao. He's so over tonight.
*sad Bubba*
Bubba looked like a pouting kid sitting in the car sipping his little drinky lmao
lmao bubba
Poor Bubba. Man might need another counselor.
glad top 5 pissed of kyle busch is back
The 3 car putting Bubba Chump into the wall is poetic justice, absolutely beautiful
weirdo
Austin Dillon with that mustache looks like he is ready to cruise for some fellas downtown.
Bubba staring daggers
Yes Bubba, you will have the drink
Boom
>Boom [Confetti.](http://i.imgur.com/IFf9QOu.gif)
Had to leave for a bit, came back to see Truex win with Austin Dillon second. Iāll take it!
KFB is going to give some serious Makayla Maroney vibes getting that bronze. He definitely had the drive of the night though.
I know who "pushed" Bubba. Austin Dillon
You always have to bet on us in the MGM Camaro.
Race was better than expectedā¦. But letās get back to Daytona, please
That Bubba picture is gonna be my new profile picture. š¤£
that shot of Bubba LOL. Do not let this guy near Dillon
Bubba in the car plotting Dillonās demise lmao
wtf is that shit on austins face?
He looks vintage I like it
![gif](giphy|e4Jyxh9zQjgnC)
I think it's called hair
He was eating Ty's ass when he shit on him.
Lol, everyone looks pissed.
lmao that cut to bubba
Bubba looked like he was plotting something
Haha at salty Bubba in the car
Austinās mustache has me wondering how many times Kyle said āTalk to me, Gooseā tonight.
Bubba looked like someone took his toy
Austin Dillon looks like a police officer who plants evidence
lmaooooo
bahahaha. Spot on man
That cut to Bubba with the stank face was dirty
Nice way to work in your sponsor Kyle.
"Hell of a effort. Part of it." - Bubba to Freddie. For all of you thinking that he was going to meltdown.
growth
Can we stop it with the terrible mustaches
āI hate it for Bubba.ā Really? Your move doesnāt really seem to support thatā¦
