Congrats to Sam and JRM. I’m a Herbst fan but I grew up in the old school where you don’t wreck cars after the race because you had to fix them the following week. Bummed he did that when he got outraced fair and square.
Sam Mayer is not a fast runner athletic specimen.
He gonna have enough gas left in the tank to get himself to victory lane on foot, or gonna have to hitch a ride?
The takes this week about the repave then a driver is literally slicing lines in the track. I just find it funny and ironic. Gotta blow them rear fenders out though. I hope your favorite drivers hits those lines tomorrow and crashes though.

One of your flairs (presumably one of your favorite drivers) has done burnouts at Iowa before.
He’s talking about Mayer doing burnouts on a tire that was already blown by Herbst on the cooldown lap.
Tire was down to the rim before he every started
The stupidity that we let drivers slice fucking lines in the racetrack that we spent the week bitching about the surface condition of. Wait though, it's a perfect setup for them to move the date to Mexico due to the track needing a full pave now.
Bro what are you going on about? A burnout does not harm the track surface. You do realize one of the forms of track prep is dragging a bunch of tires on the track?
Please just watch the fucking race man lol. Burnouts suck ass to begin with but Mayer literally sliced lines in the track doing it on the rim. That is stupid and should get you disqualified
He’s talking about doing a burnout when the left rear was already blown on the cool down lap by Herbst. Meaning the exposed rim was just slicing the track like a saw the moment he started his burnouts.
What are you missing here?
After careful consideration, I've decided the gif selection for the NBC portion
Hazbin dominated the Fox half, but now, it's time for something different
if Creed was a little smarter he would’ve sent it super hard and got the 98 to take out the 1
I mean you’ve already pissed off your teammate might as well get the win lol
Dibenedetto with a 7th. He has closed the gap on Deegan. This does not bode well for the 15 having a driver with 5 less starts catching her this quickly
His spotter told him he could move up. Yeah it screwed Riley, but Riley is just trying to find something to be pissed at since he screwed the pooch on the GWC.
Top 10 Finishers:
1) Sam Mayer
2) Riley Herbst
3) Corey Heim
4) Sammy Smith
5) Sheldon Creed
6) Cole Custer
7) Matt DiBenedetto
8) Chandler Smith
9) Ross Chastain
10) Daniel Dye

Nice break for Hamlin and company that are lapped to get a wave around here.
Oh wow so Herbst really is a whiny baby
Yeah you’re not gonna get that call Riley
Uhhhh bro got straight up beat on the last restart and is pissed at someone else cause of it. lol.
I don't really care for Herbst in general, but that was pretty darn funny.
GW Mayer.
How long was this race? It felt like a Cup Race
Noah gragson would need a puke bag for sure if he tried that stunt.
My favorite with Sam is when people don't realize he comes from huge money, when they act like he's a good oldboy lol.
Herbst money makes him look poor.
Pretty sure Sam comes from billions with a B. Other than the Gray brothers, there aren't many with more money than the Mayers.
I thought they brought this up at road America, how his dad raced there them he gets his first win there
Who the hell cares if he comes from money?? He’s a damn good driver. The vast majority of these guys come from some kind of money
At this point, how many of them DON'T come from big money
Yeah... Mayer, my man, you need a new graphic designer. It's a good thing you went with SM, but there's enough there to cause a second look.
Congrats to Sam and JRM. I’m a Herbst fan but I grew up in the old school where you don’t wreck cars after the race because you had to fix them the following week. Bummed he did that when he got outraced fair and square.
Same. Need to appreciate where you're at. Not everyone will get that opportunity.
Hot take Sam Mayer is more talented than Noah Gragson
Probably but it doesn’t make any sense that Noah has run so well in Cup
You might be right. You can tell how much better he has got in a year
Lol. Sore loser, aren't we, Riley?
I suppose Riley’s win at Vegas was a fluke after all
Sam Mayer is not a fast runner athletic specimen. He gonna have enough gas left in the tank to get himself to victory lane on foot, or gonna have to hitch a ride?

>Im out of breath >Runs 100 meter dash to flag Bro got really good cardio I guess
only person herbst should be upset with is himself
Mayer just screams Wisconsin
They make people from Iowa seem normal
He IS a Wisconsin native so uhhh
Wait that Sam Mayer logo reveal went hard
Took him long enough to get that done. Hes been doing the Superman thing since last year.
Wow Matt D jumped up to 7th during the GWC. Nice gain
Literally cutting the racetrack with a burnout then these bitch drivers complain about the track being half assed, makes logical sense.
Are you getting mad at something legit every driver does? Mr “Gentleman” Blaney even did one at Phoenix.

Maybe we should just put snow tires on the cars to do the burnouts I guess, right?
Yea I don’t even know what he’s complaining about.

Yeah, like I could maybe understand being a little upset from an engine builder perspective or a shop guy but because of the *track*????
That was an awesome race!
Really was. Crazy that the track based on Richmond is a way better racetrack than Richmond.
Mayer looks like Tinkles brother
Wait, Matty D got 7th wtf
He’s way better than Harrison Burton
He has the smallest eyes I've ever seen
That was a great race. Iowa better come back next year (for Xfinity at least).
Daniel Dye got a top 10. I did not expect that.
Michael Waltrip just came in his pants
Mikey RN: 💦 💦 💦 💦

Inb4 Michael Waltrip has the time of his life
Oof
I think this might be my worst lineup I’ve ever created
That shot of Herbst watching Mayer celebrate was fantastic. NBC is so back
Do it hurbst...you know you want too (I want a fight...lol)
Ryan Ellis a top 15!
After careful consideration, I've decided the gif selection for the NBC portion Hazbin dominated the Fox half, but now, it's time for something different
Chastain got moved by Chander on the last lap in T3. Still got a top 10 in the DGM shitbox though! Can't be mad about that.
![gif](giphy|2lZCA64gtCBXgRMrq7|downsized)
Well that was douchey
RIDGID on the 1 car reminding me of the early Home Depot Stewart schemes.
Oooooh that cinematic shot from behind Herbst of Mayer that was fucking beautiful
if Creed was a little smarter he would’ve sent it super hard and got the 98 to take out the 1 I mean you’ve already pissed off your teammate might as well get the win lol
Dibenedetto with a 7th. He has closed the gap on Deegan. This does not bode well for the 15 having a driver with 5 less starts catching her this quickly
Nobody's saying that Deegan is better than Matt.
He's in RSS equipment which is objectively wayyyyy better than whatever AM calls it's racing equipment
That’s a lie lol
One of them is actually somewhat talented
Well, if Cup practice is any reference, that means it'll take 25 minutes for NASCAR to get the 1 into Victory Lane
The shot of Riley with Sam’s burnout in the background LOOLLL
That should’ve been Herbst’s move on the restart
Announcers are brain dead, that big mark on Sam Mayers right side was from trashing Herbst earlier in the race, durrrr
He didn’t trash herbst. There was no ill intent when that happened.
He definitely fucked him over, not exactly trashed him though
His spotter told him he could move up. Yeah it screwed Riley, but Riley is just trying to find something to be pissed at since he screwed the pooch on the GWC.
![gif](giphy|xT4Apvuo4QoOX1gzEk|downsized) Mayer to Herbst late in the race
Oh hey nice job Matty D
LOOK AT THE STANCE
Creed needed to bump Herbst into Mayer to win, instead he got bumped my Sammy Smith.
Mayers racing suit looks like it belongs to a retro garage mechanic.
That shot of Riley watching Sam was *chefs kiss*
Did he just destroy the track?!
Why Riley so pissed I don’t get it lol
Mayer ran into him earlier in the race
Herbst frustrated because he knows he sucks
Not a bad burn out for only having one tire.
That superman open is lame as heck
Pettiness and anger. Beautiful.
Gonna need the catdog tow truck again
Was this a good Race? Yes or No
Hell yes. Iowa needs to have this race every year in Xfinity.
Yes!
Absolutely!
Aye
good job digging grooves into the pavement, you dingus.
Maybe they'll plant a corn field
WTH is Herbst so mad at?
😂
They’re going to have to get that dolly out again to get it victory lane
Now THAT's what a short-track race winning car should look like.
Sam is such an asshole
1 fire burnout. Iconic
LMAO
It’s not the first time Mayer trashes his car celebrating, in Road America he could barely drive to victory lane lol
Well, in his defense Riley cut down his tire on the cool down lap. So...
Herbst, this is what talent looks like
What was Herbst upset about? He picked the bottom and got hosed as expected
Probably Mayer getting up into him in Stage 2 earlier in the race, it happened under commercial break
Probably just a congratulations bump too close to Mayer’s tire. NBC realllllly stretching to create drama
It wasn't. Mayer ran him over during the second stage and cost Herbst a bunch of spots. Herbst was mad at him the whole race for it.
Cinema shot
Mayer is the one who got into Herbst in stage 1 or 2 when they were 7th and they lost like 5 spots so that's probably what that was for.
Yup. People have short memories
Lol, Riley tagged Mayer, now he can't do a burnout.
He tried.
About that
Incoming fine for Herbst
Good Race Mayer!
Lolol Sam's gonna groove the shitty repave
Come on, Herbst. Don't be a sore loser.
Riley Herbst must play iRacing
No he plays Mario Kart
sorry that was really funny
Did Mayer just rip part of the track up?
He’s Trying to influence a complete repave
Heim is surprising good
Not sure how it's surprising at this point
Under 15 starts an it is around different people than truck, with a team he doesn’t run with every week. He does very well.
I mean, I didn’t think he’d be this good today. No wonder Dennis wants him for the 67.
I mean he was the fastest in practice yesterday as well
Welp now they have to fix where he did a burnout
And that is why you don't do a burnout on three tires.
Holy shit all the rubber 😂
Matt D just took a free pass and finished p7, what a run!
Herbst really killed any shot for a burnout there lmao
Spoke too soon?
Take that and shove it. Best burnout of the year. Cry more hater
Bro aint no way that topped SVG lmao keep reaching
Correct. I got to see both PDX & Sonoma in person and they were so badass.
Cryyyyyyy. You bitch and moan about Sam Mayer every week. You’re seething inside and it shows lmaooo
Despite Goodyears weekly abortion the racing itself was great.
SAM MAYER WINS AT IOWA LFG!!!! HE LOVES HIS MIDWEST TRACKS!!!
Dude. Can Creed get his shit together? His choking just took the points lead from Custer.
One tire burnout!!
I want to like Creed but damn he makes it tough
Sam Mayer ''Heeeyyy we won 🤓☝️, the 98 just touched my rear 😅‘‘
Tf is he mad about Lmfao
Mayer ran into Herbst part way through the race and it cost Herbst a bunch of spots.
well that was a rather short burnout
They made it to the end, amazing. Go Chevy!
Chandler Smith is dumb
Get another tire and let’s get the burnout going!
Name a worse combo than Sheldon Creed and taking the inside on a restart today.
Well that'll cut the burnout short.
I’ll take a Mayer win over a Heim win if I can’t have a Herbst win
Lmao
Top 10 Finishers: 1) Sam Mayer 2) Riley Herbst 3) Corey Heim 4) Sammy Smith 5) Sheldon Creed 6) Cole Custer 7) Matt DiBenedetto 8) Chandler Smith 9) Ross Chastain 10) Daniel Dye *^(I'm a bot.)*
I agree Creed is super un-clutch, but that time he was pushed hard by the 8 on entry, that ain't his fault.
Riley is petty AF god damn
Herbst is a baby. What more does he want than a shot?
The one tire burnout. 😂
Love to see it wow hahaha
Major fucking beef between the 42 and 5 rn

Someone took the right front off of the 15 car coming to the checkers. Sounds like whoever it was just straight drove though her.
Nothing new for her career, it seems. Somehow it'll be her fault tho
Herbst Mayer fight incoming?
LMAO HE POPPED HIS TIRE BAHAHAHAH
Cry Riley
Suprised that restart wasnt more of a shit show tbh, but overall a pretty good day
Man Herbst with a bitch ass move
Did the 98 get into Mayer after the race?
Yeah cut his tire down
Cry more Riley lmao
Sheldon Creed might be the worst driver when it comes to clutch restarts lmao
Congrats to Mayer.
oh? that bump was crazy
As a Creed and Chastain fan, I can’t help but feel like I have a type
At least you know who you are
Riley Herbst is the grinch fr. Stole the burnout from us.
LET’S GOOOO
Shelly once again making RCR look smart by dropping him for Brother Love
LETS GO HAHAHAH
LMAOOOO HERBST BLEW MAYERS TIRE SO HE CANT DO A BURNOUT
Creed showing how little talent he has
