What I found interesting about Chase at Kansas this past weekend compared to other weekends was that it was the first time in a while that his feedback on the radio was "I'm good but the balance could be better." They were loose for a lot of the race and kept making it better but Chase said it...

I will say as this win has "aged" a few days for me I am a little tired of the narrative that this win was a gift. I don't think any wins at this level are a gift. Maybe Byron's 500 win this year could be categorized as that but Chase drove the wheels off that car and went out there and took...

Man, I am the odd man out here. I think everyone is giving Denny a little too much of a hard time. He's racing for the win and that move was pretty tame racing for the win compared to some of the other stuff we have seen that was defended like when Larson used Chase up at the Glen in 22 just...

Well...super bummed we did not go to the race and I got what I deserved there. Hands down the best Loudon race in years and maybe the best I have seen. My only "downer" thought is that Team Penske spanked the field and that has me worried the championship is simply theirs to lose since...

I'd love this track too if I was a Toyota guy. LOL

If this was happening today I'd be ready to watch live at the drop of the green....Because it's not I will watch tonight after football on the DVR.

They put on a great show when we saw them once. I remember the leaders were just crossing each other over in every corner for like 15 straight laps. We saw Ryan Newman and Tony Stewart both run in those cars and Stewart is just other level. He got shoved off the track on the back stretch and...

As I have mentioned before, Loudon is my home track and I went to my first race there in 1996. I have been to the cup race a total of 8 times and also went to a bunch of Xfinity races over the years. There is no getting around it. The racing there sucks and they NEED to have major tire fall...

Not sure about all the gloom and doom. They both advanced and Chase was able to advance despite 2 of 3 races having bad results. He ran well in the last 2 which is important but the last month to so has really put into perspective for me just how special his top-20 streak was and how easy it...

Yeah - Just a racing deal there really. In hindsight not the best idea for Chase and it's on him. Nice to see cars fighting for the bottom like the old Bristol though. JHN was going to let him in I think because there was room but the lane stacked when he did and that's life. It was over...

All great points. That said, this is today's NASCAR. It seems the best car rarely wins which is another reason "win and you're in" should go by the wayside. I feel Bell's pain though. I cannot imagine what it's like to be in that car all day driving your ass off an know that no matter what...

See this is why I am not a betting person. If you told me HMS would be that good yesterday after the beatdown last week and this being a terrible track for them I would have laughed at you but they all ran good. I was super-bummed about what happened with Chase and the 21 because that was on...

At least this time it had nothing to do with me. LOL. I am not sure what the debate is here. It's pretty common knowledge that Toyota spends big money to get better product on the track.

I know by "organization" you mean Toyota and that's where Chevy is missing it to me. Does not seem like they do as well sharing data.

Exactly. It's the flatter/shorter tracks that Toyota owns right now and HMS struggles at so I am not going to relax. Although, I feel like if multiple HMS cars miss the round of 12 maybe that will get their attention and drastic changes will come. I like AG a lot but the sport has passed him...
