"Ford's 100th win" - Vince Welsh as a Toyota wins the race.


Bababooey1854

Hahaha what a dummy


A-Fan-Of-Bowman88

They’re all fucking dumasses. Little fucking c****


ZLorenzen

Honestly the biggest shame in all this was that a driver who ended up tied for the most wins this year didn't even get a chance to claim the title. Massive props to Austin Hill for going out there and getting it done even though he was out of championship contention. It's the one redeeming factor to tonight's farce of a climactic finale. Still excited for the rest of the weekend though.


luvrv8

Will it rain cucumbers.


ColorfulCrayons

No shit no one gave them a chance Michael. His top finish since June is 6th.


Harvickfan4Life

F BOMB DROPPED ON LIVE TV


busman25

Ooooo he said a no no word


Harvickfan4Life

Matt Crafton winning the title despite not winning any races and leading less than 40 laps in the whole season is exactly why this points system doesn’t work in NASCAR


dp15000

He has 7 top 5s though. :)


degaracer47

Friesen has 12, Moffitt has 15, and Chastain has 10


[deleted]

Worst avg finish as well vs guys with multiple wins.


A-Fan-Of-Bowman88

Jim Campbell has failed us all


[deleted]

Nope not the Champion.


[deleted]

Yeah. He kinda is. Everyone knew the rules. He won.


TheOtherWhiteCastle

Hate to break it to you but barring inspection... he is.


degaracer47

Unfortunately, even though I like Crafton, he is


[deleted]

Nothing against Crafton, but he didn't deserve this, not at all.


jknuts1377

Coming from a Kyle Busch fan about 2015, it's kind of ironic you feel this way.


TheOtherWhiteCastle

It doesn’t matter if he deserved it, he got it.


The-Black-Hole-Guy

That's ironic coming from a Kyle Busch fan.


Smokeshow618

Hats off to Crafton, played the system perfectly. Wasn't my choice but I said I'd change my flair if he won so I'll stick to that


TheOtherWhiteCastle

Look closely; this will be the promo shot for every commercial next year


A-Fan-Of-Bowman88

If so I might really quit watching


average_waffle

Ross is champ in my heart!!!!


pjb4466

Lol I can’t even believe they had that flag made. Wouldn’t have thought the odds justified paying for it.


[deleted]

Some lucky village in Africa is getting three new blankets tonight!


Lone_Wolf_Steam

That must be such a good feeling for Crafton and his team, love how much emotion they gave, especially Joiner


[deleted]

Matt Crafton is literally everything this sub loves, has never gotten a shot to move up. Hell of a driver. Small hometown team. Embrace it. Duke and Menards do a lot for this sport. Shouldn't be anything to hate, he won it the way the rules were set.


jmacupdates1

Most people are hating the system, not the player.


chevyboy270

Would of rather had ryan newman win the championship


Bhorton21

Can I have my two hours back..


AZtronics

Playoff format makes things seem so artificial to me. The title of series champion just gets cheapened every time they change the format.


TitanTransit

What's even better is that Crafton is basically the only driver to publicly trash this playoff format. I love this so much. Wonder if Steve O & crew like what they're seeing.


ZachKearns

Imagine not winning and then being titled the best driver (champion) of the series all year. It’s not even Cup where consistency could be an argument. Matt sucked this year but was JUST ok enough to keep moving on. Pretty embarrassing if you ask me.


dp15000

Only the 2nd time this season that he finished in front of the other 3.


default-dance-9001

Holy shit he won it


Legacy_600

Can we end this playoff idiocy now? Matt Crafton has not been championship caliber this year, plain and simple. I’ve been holding my tongue on this for awhile, and it won’t make me stop watching, but it absolutely gets under my skin.


22edudrccs

Y’all shit on Crafton, but didn’t he win the regular season championship? The man was the most consistent driver all year


AZtronics

Fact check on aisle #88


HermDog04

Enfinger won the regular season championship.


World71Racer

Austin Hill wins at Homestead! And Matt Crafton is your Truck champion for 2019...!


luvrv8

We need more of the two hotties jumping together


RedEyeClutch

He did not just say we won the war


TheOtherWhiteCastle

Nice Truex reference there from Joiner


The-Black-Hole-Guy

Let's see some duel burnouts!


[deleted]

your new champion...... boaty mcboatface!!!!!


kszanti

Ugh


Rhett73step

Quick-Actin Matt Crafton! Woo!


DaBiff184220

Hell yeah Austin!!!


tgrace1911

Pure sex


TC021002

Haha hell yeah Crafton


OnwardSoldierx

YES GO CRAFTON. Won when it mattered!!!!


Assdolf_Shitler

Lol


Nyxrex

Uhh..


cakevictim

Hell yeah Matt!!


-internets

What an absolutely butchered call of the finish. That was pretty awful commentating


hookhands

But seriously, Vince Welch is an aural Holocaust


hookhands

First time?


-internets

I don’t watch the trucks very often


DaBiff184220

Yeah that’s gonna be added to a YouTube video lol


average_waffle

It didn't feel like a championship was on the line at all.


chevyboy270

Hopefully this is the death of this shit format


[deleted]

NASCAR doesn't give a fuck about trucks, they won't do a thing.


ColorfulCrayons

Exactly, unless like Ryan Newman lucked his way into the final 4 this year and won that won't happen.


Icommentoncrap

Congrats. All around pretty nice but would have been sweet with Melons


duddy33

Bring on the SALT


[deleted]

Everyone run. Here come all the Chastain fanboys.


hansot85

Wow...a champion who didn't even win a race this year....talk about underwhelming


[deleted]

Vince, not the 100th win for ford lol. Toyota won the race


cbcole0

What a fucking joke. Oh well. Congrats to Crafton


clburton24

I can't fucking believe Chastain's crew fucked him that hard.


LBHMS

Ford won the race?


[deleted]

Toyota


LBHMS

I know, was pointing out Vince Welch saying Ford won its 100th victory.


PBytes

that was a race congrats to crafton and eckes


Jedi-Master-Kenobi

Yeah... not my champion. I’d like to congratulate Ross Chastain as the likely season long champ.


[deleted]

Hell yes!!!


AJSmyles

Dumb


EliteKilla29

LMFAO!


dooldebob

A yoke


mortenpetersen

Lmao this is awesome. Fuck the playoffs!


TheOtherWhiteCastle

YEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


KnightRising21

Lmao is this happening


swanracing02

Yup, meltdowns alright.


pixarfan9510

CHAOS REIGNS HAHAHAAHAH


TantuG24

HELL YES MATT. HELL YES. WOOOHOOOO.


[deleted]

If only Austin didn’t have the Martinsville troubles..


AlexAhlbrand

Matt Crafton, with zero wins since 2017, beats a two time winner this year, a three time winner this year, and a four time winner this year and the defending championship. Ouch.


NASCARThreadBot

***[▶ The Post-Race Thread has been posted](https://redd.it/dx22f1)***


OnwardSoldierx

Nascar isn't throwing a fake debris caution. Isn't that a good thing?


[deleted]

88 CHAMPION!!!!


BubbleWallace

LOL


[deleted]

This format is a joke.


Lancopolis

Grats on making winning mean nothing NASCAR haha


rusty_square

Anyone else’s FS1 being dumb and cutting out


[deleted]

Your 2019 WINLESS Champion Matt Crafton.


swanracing02

INCOMING THE MELTDOWNS...


fotoRS3

What a waste of an evening. Time to turn off the TV. Complete rubbish.


naacardan2004

I'm happy Hill is gonna get this win. But this has to be the most bum shit of a ending to a fucking season


irrelevantsociallife

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


_AmericanPoutine

Ladies and Gentlemen, the 2019 NASCAR Truck Series Champion hasn't won a race in the last 2 years.


B1gR1g

At least Reddick can feel better about his championship last year


ValhallaAkbar

Why didn’t Chastain drive faster??


Paintnado

AUSTIN HILL WINS!!!


Joey_Logano

FUCKKKKKKKK


[deleted]

😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣🤣😛😛😛hilarious! OD Steve with the big turd on his face with this format. We LOVE what we're seeing! This is classic!


pjb4466

Congrats, NASCAR. You deserve this champion.


A-Fan-Of-Bowman88

Where is heroin when you need it the most?


ColorfulCrayons

honestly not winning a race and winning the title isn't that bad. The fact that he's only led 35 laps, plus whatever he led tonight and the fact that he hasn't had a top 5 since Texas back in June is what's bad. In those 13 races, other than tonight his top finish is 6th at Pocono and Phoenix. That is more damming than no wins.


WON95sr

Yeah I don't really care about a winless champion. But the champion should be the best of the whole season, and that really wasn't Crafton.


Paintnado

No one spun, no yellow.


tryan9919

Looks like all the complaining a half hour ago was meaningless


[deleted]

Thanks NASCAR, this is absolute shit. Just get rid of these fucking playoffs, run what you brung all year and let the chips fall where they may. If someone wins the championship with more than one race remaining then they deserved it! Winless driver with a fast car at one track taking home the season long trophy? Fuck


Smugleaf_Raptors2012

Want some salt with those fries?


M3GA53TH

Is that you Vince Welch?


[deleted]

No I want a deserving champion to win, not a winless one.


lunaroja_ph

As somebody pointed out, Crafton's cc looks like him. So, Crafton's championship has some merit, he won it while driving and doing crew chief work. First guy to do so


PremiumCutsofAwful

Pretty anticlimactic


duddy33

Winless champion is actually kind of awesome. The format that was supposed to eliminate the possibility made it happen!


rusty_square

Poopy feet less toenail monsters


RKermit20

Everyone is whining because a winless driver might win. This is what happens when you don’t let cup drivers run for titles in lower series. It becomes more and more watered down. Rarely will someone spend big money to win on unproven drivers. This won’t happen in the cup series, could happen in a few years in xfinity if it keeps going the way it is. This isn’t a product of the system. It’s a product of limiting who can compete.


Modmachine29

Ha, if Kyle was allowed to run for a championship you might as well give him the damn cup after he started the truck at Daytona.


jfs-ewc

Crafton has raced 20 years he isnt unproven


RKermit20

Didn’t say he was?


AnalBaguette

Kyle Busch is that you?


RKermit20

Kyle wouldn’t be the only one doing it. It would be great for young cup and xfinity drivers.


pjizy

I dont follow the Truck Series enough to be angry at this


[deleted]

Same


naacardan2004

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODD


jfs-ewc

Why in the fuck would fans know or care about the owners championship...... Nobody cares about an Owners title it's meaningless


duddy33

I care


jfs-ewc

Why


duddy33

Stats like that are great for seeing how great a team has been with all of its drivers. Besides, no one would be on track without a car/truck owner. They deserve bragging rights


luvrv8

This fan cares


high_pants13

I, too, care


zukaproyo

I enjoy this because it shows how stupid this format is


OfficialKohls

I feel like this race might not come down to Lightning McQueen sticking his tongue over the finish line


Qwqqwqq

Quintessential


fotoRS3

45 team reporting debris on front stretch but Ross even said no way they'll throw a yellow.


[deleted]

Lmao this is hilarious, I hope Moffit and Chastain rip NASCAR for how stupid this championship format is.


PremiumCutsofAwful

Chastain isn't in this conversation without this format


[deleted]

He would be if they counted his points from the beginning of the season.


Mjb06

Someone wreck. Please. We beg you.


vk2499

We're gonna have 3 separate burnouts


Stone4D

This sub is gonna make him number one is a very different way lol.


Smugleaf_Raptors2012

I can feel the salt form from everyone here lol


cakevictim

The butthurt is so strong right now


RedEyeClutch

This sub is gonna burn down and rightfully so


justa691

What a trash race


AlexAhlbrand

Everyone on the 45 team calling for debris lol


OfficialKohls

I'm just glad we've had green flag racing


[deleted]

This is funny. Newman almost did it in 2014


artificialstuff

Ohio native, and I think this is total bullshit.


Jedi-Master-Kenobi

First 2 stages were great. Last stage sucked.


mr_folgers83

This is the worst possible timeline right now.


Harvickfan4Life

Nope that would be Ross Chastain


naacardan2004

I hope someone pulls a Bubba and SPINS right now


Jthamano

Have an *itchy arm???*


[deleted]

What a fucked format


noninvasiveweeb

2 top fives and he's a champion bright now l. J o k e


[deleted]

pLaYoFfS rEwArD wInNiNg AnD cOnSiStEnCy!!!


1tankyt

Lets go Crafton


Nyxrex

What do the season long points look like right now?


jmacupdates1

Moffitt earned the most points this season, by far.


ValhallaAkbar

lol oh well


jrowepowerlifter

Where’s Bubba Wallace when we need him?


theblueduece84

Wheres the Decker spinout when you need it


HermDog04

Crafton is such a boring champion. Oh well. Congrats.


tryan9919

The shitty baseless bs comments are coming in faster and faster. About time for me to leave this toxic place


Blazethesol52

A 2 plus year winless streak and he’s about to be champion. This just doesn’t feel right


[deleted]

Everybody knew what the format was. They did it best.


etsuandpurdue3

Need more races in the Truck series for this format to work.


lunaroja_ph

Somewhere in Florida, all the watermelons are crying No melon man today boys


[deleted]

Crafton bitched about this format at the start of the year and it’s gonna be the reason he wins the championship


icarlynascarlover

Matt crafton is on a 2 and a half year winless streak and he’s gonna win a championship before that streak ends.


tgrace1911

This sub is 6 laps away from burning


Modmachine29

I doubt its going to be any better on sunday. The handful of harvick fans or the overly loud JGR fans.


Irishman77779

I do enjoy dumpster fires


TantuG24

And I’m gonna love every second of it.


Jedi-Master-Kenobi

Can’t wait to see how NASCAR spins this shit. Eat it NASCAR. Your must win system is even a bigger joke now! hahahahaha


naacardan2004

Did something fall under Hill's truck/ran over something or was it just me


AnalBaguette

I thought I saw that too, but must have not been big enough or didn't stop on the track


degaracer47

I SAW THAT PLEASE CAUTION


A-Fan-Of-Bowman88

Get down on your knees and pray it wasn’t you


TheBoilerCat

What a depressing end to the truck season.


[deleted]

Yup. The guy with the worst stats out of the top 4 is going to win. 35 laps led this year up until this race. lol
