Twelve brave Nuffers dared to test their skills on the "tuff" Bristol Track in NRL's 6th race of the season, the Food City 500...ran at 100% and normal wear.

Those brave Nuffers survived a "not so great" start and a crazy first 50 laps before everything calmed down and all settled in for a very good race over the final 300 laps !!

In a remarkable run from 8th to Victory Lane...ijeremy used great pitting strategy over the final 100 laps to gain an edge that the other drivers could not recover from.

 

"Great job, guys, great job,'' ijeremy said. "Awesome!''

Jeremy performed a solo pit with about 100 laps to go...which made the difference as he was able to keep the #44 car on the track during a late caution while most of the challenging cars pitted. That strategy moved jeremy in front to stay !!

Replied crew chief Todd Parrott: "How about Dale Jarrett finally winning at a short track! Awesome.'' 

Tyberian returned to the track this week and promptly took his 4th pole in 4 races and despite a fiery altercation with Ratty (Under review)...survived the early part of the race to finish second while Steady TBDesigns took 3rd place and moved into 2nd place in the NRL standings behind Abbott.

 

KCKevin gets 1600 gamerpoints for Track B Victory!!

In a WONDERFUL race over on Track B...as three drivers fought over the final 100 laps !! KCkevin took the lead at lap 401 and was closely chased by mwils for the next 50 laps. Mwils annouced his strategy to try to take KC coming out of turn 4 whenever the opportunity arose. And for 50 laps...KC fought mwils off in some great racing. The #16 car (Buster) was about 8 seconds behind the exciting action but was able to take advantage and catch mwils and KC to set up a mad dash for the last 50 laps !! Finally at lap 451...mwils caught a slingshot opportunity out of turn 4 and shot by KC for the lead. At that point, it was mwils's race to win !!!

As usual at Bristol, it is always a matter of when the hammer will fall, and who it will hit. This time...with just 3 laps to go and all racers within 1 sec of each other...mwils pushed too hard out of turn 4...his favorite turn of the track !! The same turn that the #55 used for the great slingshot move...ohhhh...but this time...mwils visited  the wall and the wall was not in the entertaining mood...closing the door on the #55 and sending mwils flipping !!! DID I SAY THIS WAS ON LAP 497?!?!? KCkevin was able to charge from there for the Track B win !!! Congrats KC !!!!

We Survived !!!!
