The race isn’t even over and I’ve already come down from 2 adrenaline rushes. I might be getting too old for these superspeedway races

These tracks should not be in the playoffs, IMHO.
I was thinking they should be swap meets or condos or summing.

Of if nothing else, reserved for exhibition races. They are always a crapshoot.

Think they can go 2 consecutive green flag laps. I vote no.

Dang, we won't even get some knowledge. Would have been nice for something useful to come of this.

Either go all-in with it and make Talladega/Daytona the playoff opener and finale, or keep them out entirely.

Creed drove tf out of that wreck. That save wasn’t an accident.
Man I was pulling for the 39
he did a great job. Imagine what he could do in a top ride
Jeb Burton did well too to finish 7th after major damage earlier

Some of these announcers have no tact. Like mentioning PLAYOFFS half a dozen times to Chastain after last weeks win.

They have the drivers by the short hairs. They can't say anything back. But if I were them I sure would have something to say when I found one off camera.
The constant criticism by the gerbils is infuriating to me also. They make so many mistakes and they don't seem aware of it.

Go Briscoe!
You love to see it. Yesterday it was Norm Benning finishing on the lead lap, quite a remarkable feat. Incredible run from Starr, he was a force in the Trucks during his prime years.

It just says to me that these tracks reward luck to a higher degree than non-restrictor tracks.

And you perceive that to be a problem...wait until the Roval, talk about needing a high degree of luck.

See any one-win wonders on the list of Roval winners? Bennings and Starrs don't enter because they don't have any chance.

I guess it's too scary
AJ said the same thing even after he won this race two years ago. You don't have to like it to excel.
Just another built in excuse for Sheldon. If he doesn't win in the 2 and 18, how is he gonna win next year on a start-up team.
Which sucks because NBC chose not to show this race on any of their channels. Was it even streamed on NBC sports App?

NBC has already turned the broadcasting over to CW. The transition left streamers in the cold. Poorly managed, in my opinion.

No.
Broadcast only.
Next year is a different deal. CW and CW app, and NASCAR produces the broadcast instead of NBC.

I wonder how many viewers are missing these races, don't know they'll be. streamed next year, and write off CW and never try it again?
