Sat. on FS1 I believe.

Think (going off memory so you might want to verify) it was 2:30 pm & I assume the times were eastern

Just checked and it's actually replaying Friday at 2:30 eastern.

This week-end the snooze series is in Indianapolis. What once was an exciting race filled with intrigue and historical significance has become a well-known sedative for those wishing to catch-up on their lost sleep time.

When did this happen? NASCAR has never really fit at the Brickyard. The races have always been on the dull side because the track was never intended for them. They just sort of make due and lucked into a tradition when Dale Jarrett decided to kiss the bricks

I thought the race was pretty good last night. But man, Kyle Larson really tore up a good truck. It was clear he had the better truck, he didn't have to bounce off the wall every lap and finally give it a death blow.

Ty Dillon's pit blunder changed the entire race. He had a great chance to win.

But congrats to Bubba Wallace. But it would be nice to see someone other than Kyle Busch Motorsports win every now and then in the truck series.

Turkey do you even understand how Indianapolis fits in the overall significance and historical scheme of the total racing landscape in America or do you need that explained? I thought you of all posters would get that but apparently not.

actually it was Dale Jarrett's CC's idea to kiss the bricks. (Parrot)

Re-read my post. I said it doesn't fit NASCAR. The way your post reads it makes it seem you're saying the Brickyard 400 was once a good race but has gotten boring over the years. It's not clear you're referring to the track itself and not the NASCAR specific race.

Indy has never been a good place to watch a Cup race, from the very start in 1994. Will always be a one groove race track for stock cars

When you think about it BPNAZ, the track has always been nearly a one-groove race track even for Indy cars.

I predict another snoozer of a race.. probably catch the 1st 25-30 laps and then the last 20-25 laps.. of course they are calling for a 60% chance of rain on Sunday for Indy and with JPM possibly in the race and the way he feels about jet-dryers.. it could get interesting

Damn it, missed the replay again. I think I set it to remind me instead of to record. :doh:
