That's a pisser because those idiots at Raceview don't do stand alone Xfinity races. It would be fun listening to them spot a race. Especially Chase spotting for his dad.
Nice from the Cup race run at Road America back in the 50s

Wow, great to see Chastain getting a chance in a top-tier ride.

yeah it was the first race run there, looks like the Chrysler was in the same corner as the 22 all these years later.
Pretty interesting for Chastain. I guess somebody else will drive his car after he bailed out. Richmond is a playoff race also. They have Richmond scheduled the Sept 21st instead of the 25th like the article says. I guess Nemechek and Chastain will go thru the playoffs. It would be something if he picked up more rides from Ganassi this season.

Rookie stripes being put on a NASCAR Hall of Famers car... you don’t see that every weekend!

I never saw him race. I hope he does very well. I've always thought NASCAR should induct obvious hall of famers like Tony, JJ and Jeff, while they are still driving and winding down their career, but this is even better.

Unfortunately for Bill, no real practice today due to a wet track. He might have his qualifying laps only to go by.

Did they really have to embarrass the guy? He's an experienced driver.
He's only run 3 laps so far --- 20th.

He never ran a full Busch season and he never ran a NASCAR race at Road America.
I don't think it's rained all that much at the track.
Gateway was really rained out today. Had to postpone all kinds of practice for Indy cars and K&N.

Oh. Thanks for the explanation.

I feel like I follow things pretty closely and I never heard about it until earlier today. IMO they made it a distraction by deciding to not be on the car.
got some speed

Utterly ridiculous. I almost want to believe the opening paragraph of this article on the subject is an Onion-style parody.

Today's race starts late enough that I can squeeze in a short afternoon nap.

Willy T. And Derek are great friends and Derek helped out Willy a lot when he was racing in IndyCar. Willy said he has never dealt with any sort of racial slurs or slander from his friend and mentor.

Pretty sad about this situation and Lilly's has made this situation worse than what it is. I mean it was "allegedly" about 35 years ago. This is a horrible situation made from nothing IMHO.

Thank you for keeping this civil.
There is a thread in The Podium for those who feel the need to express their innermost feelings about this situation.
Qualifying positions for Road America
Tifft is a pretty good little road racer, sat on the pole for the Trans Am race also. Ringers Davidson and Marks are real fast. Connor Daley starts 15th, Bill Elliott 23rd and Katherine Legge 26th. Many teams only ran one lap saving tires for the race itself.

pole sitter Custer and Cendric to the rear. ugh

5 Cup drivers, four of them will most likely compete for the win.
I hope one or two regulars will be able to spoil the show but I'm almost sure the win will be going to a cupper.

I would like to see Chastain racing for the win myself. I don't know how much better his car is than what he usually races, it will be interesting to see what a difference the car makes in his case.
