Allow me to pause for a moment: first of all, what's bolded in the first quote box is precisely what has led me to stop watching. It has been obvious to me for years, it has been stated by teams and drivers for years to be true, and yet consistently I find myself in arguments about whether or...

I am happy for Bubba. He's not gonna ever be my favorite (hooking guys at superspeedways is a huge nono for me) but I appreciate that his very presence is a litmus test of who is garbage and who is at least bordering on a decent human. He deals with a lot I'm sure and as such this is nice to see.

Thorson is running 3 & 4 like it's a pavement track. If he doesn't break, I don't think anyone has anything for him tonight.

I recommend going over to TMez's Youtube channel and seeking out the posts. He has one from yesterday that is...interesting. Also can't likely post the text here because there is a lot of adult language.

Back at the hotel; so happy Macri won. Love seeing guys like him snipe these paychecks. Of all the stories coming into tonight, the biggest one at the end was Macri. Two years ago his dad fired him from this same ride this same week. Now he's on top of the sport.

Eldora has a drone show now? It has a drone show now.

Tanner Holmes and Brent Marks both need fresh boxers after spinning in front of the field like that. And now.... feature time next? That seems miraculous since it isn't 2am

Do not even attempt to pretend you expected Kasey Jedrzejek to win the pole.

Darin Naida is a kid I've watched a lot of as he's a Michigan product and I'm so happy to see he's gotten to make the show at the Kings Royal. He just hung low and stayed there and it worked. Also, are Donny's fanboys going to still blame Ford for his performance?

Holmes almost managed to get into the Feature. Couldn't see Sweet from here but heard he took a stretcher ride after that hit.

Here and it is packed. $3 for Wi-Fi is better than nothing?

Here in Portland Indiana waiting for the storms to finish up, which might be another 45 minutes. Then it's off to see how quickly they can get underway; I'm expecting a late evening.

Going to the Kings Royal tomorrow and honestly I'm slightly nervous. The wrecks this week have been insane. Sunshine looks like he's out for months while Reutzel just got hurt tonight with who knows what. Even if you aren't hurt like Kahne or Gravel it's still terrifying to see.

I'm not expecting to see Courtney back for a little bit after that wreck. The indentation on the cage was not good. That he's awake and can move everything is nice but I'm guessing that transport wasn't just for funzies. Hopefully he's like Kalib Henry and he can get discharged soon with just...

If you aren't watching Joker's Jackpot tonight, in all seriousness, you have made super poor decisions in life.
