Unfortunately, that stat is being driven more by a lack of really BAD finishes than the number of really GOOD finishes.
True, but he really isn't threatening for very many wins. If he wants to go deep in playoffs, he needs more top 5's and less 7-15ths.Elliott currently is in 3rd place 27 points out of 1st.
See if Hendrickcars is the sponsorDirtrackr (Justin Fiedler) on YouTube has at least softly broke that Corey Day will be running additional pavement races including an ARCA start at Salem. In addition to that, he has passed along the rumor that Day is already signed to a developmental deal with Hendrick.
I updated my status thing on here last week before knowing of this but yes, please feel free to jump on the bandwagon now. There will be cider and donuts later.
That and a couple of bucks will get you a cup of coffee for yourself.

I'm gonna try to make it again this year, had tickets, hotel room and everything paid for but we got pregnant in December and my wife was willing to go with up until about 2 months before race day so I had to sell everything as my brother couldnt go because his own wife is preggers and my dad has gone to enough of these, my friends dont care for racing so sad face. It'll be awesome to see a reigning Brickyard 400 Champ in the Indy 500Great news. Indy will be so much fun again next year.![]()
Yeah I'm not a huge fan of Indycars at Indy, but with Larson in the race I'm all in. I suspect there are a few the same way.Great news. Indy will be so much fun again next year.![]()
Sure is. Will also be racing Bristol and Kansas now for ARCA.See if Hendrickcars is the sponsor
True. He’d win 3 or 4 titles in a Labonte or Kenseth fashion in the old style points imho. In this format, I think he’s gotten his one and only already.Unfortunately, that stat is being driven more by a lack of really BAD finishes than the number of really GOOD finishes.
You have no idea how disappointed I was to learn 'Corey Day' is not a calendar date to celebrate the driver of the #7 car.I saw some folks talking about Corey Day, thought this would fit here

As a driver I'd say he blows that Corey out of the water. Highly talented sprint car driver.You have no idea how disappointed I was to learn 'Corey Day' is not a calendar date to celebrate the driver of the #7 car.![]()
At this point, I'm gonna let Corey Day do his thing. If Corey Day does Corey Day Things in ARCA/Trucks/Xfinity, he's gonna be a bonafide star. Like a STAR star, the kind NASCAR hasn't had in a minute. Or he winds up being Kenny Irwin Jr. That's the floor.As a driver I'd say he blows that Corey out of the water.

What does he race now, strictly dirt ? Apologies as I hope I’m not coming off condescending just trying to learn more. I’ve never heard of him until I think it was you that brought him up. I see he won WoO at Knoxville, that’s insane. He’s only 18!At this point, I'm gonna let Corey Day do his thing.

He primarily runs dirt 410 sprints in the High Limit series; last year he ran the full NARC schedule, which is basically the regional 410 series for the west coast and won the title in dominant fashion. To my knowledge, he has only one appearance on a pavement track: 4/27/2024 at Hickory where they ran Twin 40 lap late model features. He finished 7th out of 12 in the first feature and won the second feature: only person I recognize from the short list of participants is Landon Huffman. Jr Motorsports put him in for that one off.What does he race now, strictly dirt ? Apologies as I hope I’m not coming off condescending just trying to learn more.

It's only fitting that he is good. You know what kind of race car drivers comes from California. I think they made a movie about it once.Corey Day raced his first Late Model pavement race and he won it.
Making his first career start on pavement behind the wheel of a JR Motorsports No. 88 NASCAR Late Model Stock Car, the 18-year old rising star from Clovis, California claimed the win in the second Twin 40 feature at Hickory Motor Speedway.

Did you think about this before you posted it?Or he winds up being Kenny Irwin Jr. That's the floor.
I did. Kenny didn't get a chance at a full career but he didn't manage to make waves with Roush when Roush was ROUSH. Swap in JJ Yeley if it makes you feel better.Did you think about this before you posted it?

Well, it's been 24 years, I don't think it's too soon to point out that Kenny's NASCAR career was indeed somewhat disappointing. That's not a knock on Kenny, it's just a fact, and some times facts are uncomfortable, but it doesn't make them any less true. It's also quite possible he would have found his groove at some point and become a great NASCAR driver. Sadly we'll never get to know. Side note to the OP, Kenny was with Yates, not Roush, and then he went to Sabco.It’s not about me feeling better.
It’s disrespectful. I thought you were better than that.
I miss Felix Sabates.Side note to the OP, Kenny was with Yates, not Roush, and then he went to Sabco.
