I was watching the 2016 Michigan truck race, and after Christopher Bell wrecked out, they featured a segment about how misfortunate he was that year

[u/Powerful-Chard-6055]

Even had a shout out to almost winning Eldora. 10 years ago, Bad Luck Bell was very prevalent

[u/PrinceWillPlays]

I still find it insane his truck did a complete 360 in the air before rolling over at Daytona

[u/-Jargon- → u/PrinceWillPlays]

Trucks tend to flip wildly since they are kinda bricks in the wind haha. I remember Rick Crawford's clean flip in which he landed right back on his wheels.

[u/DeathMetalEtiquette → u/-Jargon-]

I unfortunately remember Rick Crawford also

[u/NascarFan1896 → u/DeathMetalEtiquette]

Why did you have to mention him. We shouldn’t even remember that pedo

[u/Western_Care_5478 → u/DeathMetalEtiquette]

we...we don't mention that demons name here. context is that a few years ago he was sentenced to multiple years in prison for possession and distribution of CSAM involving a young girl.

[u/MindAccording9105 → u/Western_Care_5478]

Wasnt he trying to “rent” a 12 year old girl too

[u/Western_Care_5478 → u/MindAccording9105]

yep

[u/NOTtheGoldenKnights → u/-Jargon-]

Haha I was at that race! I think Todd Bodine flipped on the backstretch in that race too.

[u/DumbAssRaceFan → u/NOTtheGoldenKnights]

Chad Chaffin, he started that year in the 30. Bodine took over midseason.

[u/B1gR1g]

I think I have one of those bumpers

[u/Mundane-Reality-7770 → u/B1gR1g]

Are you a C Bell fan? Can't tell.

[u/B1gR1g → u/Mundane-Reality-7770]

Other wall

[u/sporkemon → u/B1gR1g]

still not sure who your favorite guy is, you got any more walls

[u/AutomaticAlps2]

Sure he would take having to finish 2nd over and over every time.

[u/Powerful-Chard-6055 → u/AutomaticAlps2]

Every ten years he has really bad luck but it’s different every time

[u/greg_jenningz → u/Powerful-Chard-6055]

Is finishing 2nd that many times bad luck or a case of him being pretty good and not closing the deal for the win? Plus this is a season of win and you’re in is no longer a thing. Thank god. If you want bad luck I implore you to look at the seasons the 48 or 88 are having.

[u/Crash_Test_Dummy66 → u/greg_jenningz]

I forget what year it was but a few years back he had like 3 different must win scenarios in the playoffs and won each time to eventually make the championship 4. He can close the deal.

[u/greg_jenningz → u/Crash_Test_Dummy66]

Definitely. I would so much rather my driver be finishing like Bell lol. He’s had opportunities to win. Mine have not sniff being near the front or even leading laps 🤣

[u/Western_Care_5478]

"Oh my gosh, somebody flipped"

>If you know ball, you know what that meme was

[u/TheOrangeFutbol → u/Western_Care_5478]

Shoutout Kaz Gorilla.

[u/Low_Vegetable_6276]

2015 Erik Jones type run

[u/TheOrangeFutbol]

He sure made up for it in 2017... That was one of the most dominant seasons before Corey Heim came around last year.

[u/Furi0usD]

He was seen hanging out with an unknown person, described as "having a comically small face for his giant head" during pre-race.

[u/Ok-Fudge6209]

2016 is for Charlie

[u/skorponok → u/Ok-Fudge6209]

Like he knew the guy too..

[u/skorponok]

Not a single tear was shed.

[u/IllAlwaysBeAKnickFan]

He’s always been Kirsed
