Chat Recap: See What Fans Had To Say About Jamie McMurray's Brickyard 400 Victory

Jul 25 12:19p by Jeff Gluck

The second-biggest race of the season is upon us, and it's time to talk about it.

Let us know what you think of the on-track action, break down the wrecks and critique the TV broadcast.

But before anything, let us know who you think is going to win (our pick is Jimmie Johnson).

Make sure the auto-refresh box is checked so you can see the latest comments from other fans and SB Nation's Jeff Gluck.

What's up everyone?

I’m fired up to be at Indy…not thinking it’ll be the most exciting race, but it’s INDY, so I’m cool with it. Does that make sense?

Juan Pablo will lead the first 15 laps til the competition caution, then his pit crew will lose the lead, Jimmie Johnson will take over and dominate the day.

Agree/disagree?

That's good with me...

Except…

Indy is Gordon’s house..

Baby on the way..hasn’t won yet..

dunno..might be the breakthrough today…

by NASCAR-ista on Jul 25, 2010 1:27 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think the 2 spotter circumstance is causing troubles with a lot of the drivers. Jamie talked to his spotters during the caution about what he needed because they had him confused going into Turn 2.

Yes, there will be changes all over the place on the schedule.

Yes, including the Chase.

No, Pocono won’t lose a date.

Kansas will get a date, and probably Vegas instead of Kentucky. Fontana and Atlanta will lose dates.

But in addition to that, the schedule will be re-arranged in many ways. I’m excited to see how it works.

Exactly, I have sat in the grandstands of Atlanta in 3 layers before. It also rains. I can camp for 60 bucks at Atlanta or find a hotel for 50 about 30 miles away. They got traffic flow down, best (free) shower house for camping I’ve seen. In short, Atlanta is a great track and doesn’t deserve to lose a date.

ATl tickets are too high you got 39 for turn 3 and 95 for everything else unless you want row 3-10 in petty grandstand, knock petty to 59 or lower for it all and earnhardt grandstand outta 4 and out the front to 79 and they would sell out. Atlanta has always been a rough sports town in history it seems like

I have always thought Atlanta were some of the most reasonably priced tickets. But I guess compared to Dega and Bristol, everyone is cheap! They do have a ton of specials for the Night race: http://www.atlantamotorspeedway.com/tickets/specials/

With just over 20 to go...

I’m giving you a shot to revise your picks.

Who wins?

Montoya, McMurray, Biffle or “Other?”

by Jeff Gluck on Jul 25, 2010 3:49 PM EDT reply actions  

I'm sticking with Biffle

Someone is gonna take 2 tires here and mess up the whole dynamic of the race.

by jshaunburke on Jul 25, 2010 3:50 PM EDT up reply actions  

Wow, lots of 2 tires. I think Montoya is gonna get tore up trying to rush to the front.

by jshaunburke on Jul 25, 2010 3:52 PM EDT up reply actions  

Sticking with Montoya.

Predicted him from the beginning and I will take it to my grave. Or Victory Lane.

Lasts 30 years! That was interesting. I thought it was a joke at first…

Interesting tire strategies

I think honestly, I would have taken two. Clean air matters so much here.

You?

by Jeff Gluck on Jul 25, 2010 3:53 PM EDT reply actions  

agree 2 and clean air

by Shawn Hansen on Jul 25, 2010 3:54 PM EDT up reply actions  

I think 2 tires, but as fast as the 16, and 42 are I think 20 laps will be plenty of time for them (as long as they are patient)

by jshaunburke on Jul 25, 2010 3:54 PM EDT up reply actions  

I fear there might be too many laps left for that to be the right call.

But if it was the right call, I hope Jamie can hold on to it.

He said something would go wrong with JPM by the end of the race.

Montoya could have let out of the gas and kept it off the way. He choose to keep in the gas. I don’t really feel sorry for him. I feel Uber sorry for Jr. Just a victim.

off the way should say off the wall. Whoops!

Montoya just blew off the media. No comment on his day. Sorry folks.

Must be Mark Martin’s fault. He doesn’t know how to drive.

+1

If your guy can’t win who else could be better then Jamie McMurrary. He is a great guy and I liked him when he was driving the 26 car, glad he is having a good season. Also happy J Johnson had a bad race he should stay home and play with his new born.

Since the face been revealed the game got real

I know you’re all gone already, but I just got back to the media center from interviews. Had to run after Montoya, then stayed out there.

Your presence here is much appreciated. Really enjoy chatting with you all during races. See you next week!
