I can’t wait til Sunday. BIGGEST RACE DAY OF THE FUCKING YEAR!

Can't wait to watch it as well.

Also, thank you for starting up the thread.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

This is legit like Christmas Day for race fans. Tbh if I’m awake, I might even watch the F1 race from Monaco. It’s 9 am, so I COULD be awake. I don’t even like F1 lmao, but I never watched all 3 before. Always just the Indianapolis 500 and Coke 600.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Larson said his priority is the 500. damn

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Fans being told to leave the stands

 

[Hidden Blaze]

@Doom @Stellar @Tommy Bedlam @Bobby Barrows will y’all be joining me when the race does get started?

 

[Bobby Barrows]

What time?

 

[Hidden Blaze]

What time?

No idea right now. Would be pretty soon, but it’s under a weather advisory right now as lightning is moving in. I’ll tag you once it seems we have a time if you want

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Lmao

 

[Bobby Barrows]

Ah sweet they got David Letterman on the show

 

[Doom]

Sorry Blaze. I'm at my brother's house. We hung out yesterday with him and his wife and my mom and stayed the night.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Ah sweet they got David Letterman on the show

Yeah, he a co owner of a few of the cars. Pretty sure Danica use to be one of the drivers who raced for him even

 

[Bobby Barrows]

I won't be surprised if they postpone the race to a later date with how this rain is.
