If an engine goes boom on the newly named back straight....

Will that make it an Alabama Gang-BANG?

The most entertaining part was watching everybody jockey for position at the end of pit road. Was like one giant staging duel.

So yeah, not live at all. The internet foretold of this wreck a good while before FS1 got to it.

I'm surprised it was as crazy as that. Starting position means nothing here as long as you qualify for the race. Strange to seethe big names taking such risks.

The more I see that replay, the more irritating it is - Larson just forced himself into a gap that was never there in the first place and he wrecks a tiny team's car in the process. These entitled kids with infinite resources to wreck at will are really starting to get annoying, especially when a little team like Berryhill's really suffer from uneccesary shit like this.

The first thing I ever saw Larson do was dump that guy at the bash at the beach thing last season. I'm not surprised.

Felt like the ending to a hollywood movie, that crash:

"Kyle, Gap's closing, you can't do it, you're not gonna make it through!"

*changes up a gear, shot of him mashing the throttle pedal to the floor*

"To hell with that, I'll make my own gap"

*Blasts 2 cars out of the way to make a getaway at top speed*

Well session 1 was a waste.. seeing a 9 car draft train intentionally slowing to 160mph is stupid as hell. I hope someone crashes and crashes hard playing the game.

I found the whole session pretty entertaining tbh.

I wouldn't call Kyle Larson entitled either, mainly because he can wheel the crap out of a race car.

Even though it was pretty stupid to pull that move.

That move, was it in the race, and it wasn't less than 10 to go, and he probably would have pulled out of the throttle, but he probably had a very good lap, was coming out of 4 and didn't want to lift the throttle so close to the start/finish line.

I just read something crazy about Nationwide Qualifying. If they went off official recorded qualifying speeds, Curtis Key's cars would have swept the front row with Matt DiBenedetto in their start and park car winning the pole.
