Another great pick by @pjmolo to keep his lead. I was mortified by the early slide of Hemric but thrilled he finished 11th. About as good as I can ask from that team.

End of the day, NASCAR is a private entity that stages a racing series. They negotiated but decided the last deal was on the table, take it or leave it, but do it by midnight Friday. Sounds like they threatened to dissolve the charter system altogether if the teams wouldn’t take the deal. Why...

Looks like the top 5 could slip a bit if Wallace does well 😉

Welcome back @Turtle84! My first Winston Cup large speedway event in person was as a young 13 YO going to The Rebel 500. I rode there in a car driven by Ned Jarrett; I was his guest as he went to do the radio broadcast. Great man and great family from my hometown. Sat by myself on the...

This conversation is a product of the “worst case scenario” we just witnessed, and it was inevitable; Burton was dead last among full time drivers in points, but gets IN with his win. Happy for him, and for the Wood brothers, absolutely. Does he deserve to be in the “playoffs”? Nope. That’s why...

So much discussion following the Daytona “miracle” for Burton, which shows Nascar’s “win and you’re in” system is a disaster. My ideas are posted below and let’s hear yours. These should be based on retaining the “playoffs” as NASCAR will likely never go back to a pure points system. In my...

WOW! If this is correct there is a significant surprise here. Gateway must be doing it right by NASCAR as they get moved to the second playoff race on Sept 7th. That will be a great time to be there at my current home track…weather usually has turned to comfy from summer’s heat. Nice!

Worst crash I can recall seeing there during the classic era. People don’t really appreciate how blessed we are as NASCAR fans to still have King Richard with us. He still gets to the track a lot, signs autographs for everyone, puts in lots of time promoting the sport at a senior age. He was...

7 - because “ARE YOU ALL ENTERTAINED BY NOW 🤡”!!!

Man congrats to those who picked Burton, but also to @pjmolo for a quality finish by Hemric. He just keeps making good picks while staying up front!

Survival is a win at a plate track!

Larson is a wrecking idiot tonight…what the crap?

This is why I despise when quicker cars fall back in the pack intentionally. Ryan Preece gets crinkled by being mid-late pack, when he had opportunities earlier to get up front and stay there. He elected to fall all back in stage 1, then puttering around before the mess. Someone cue up my theme...

Crash test dummy…check.

What the h-// happened with Preece? He wouldn’t jump up to the outside to lead when he had the chance, then dumped out and is running 39th. Strategy or issues?

ENJOY! I’ve been there several times for the 500 but never the 400. Same track same great time. Top notch facility, best in the sport followed by Charlotte IMO. Last 500 we sat up in the HIGH seating (newer stands) where pit road exits prior to turn 1. Fear of heights will get to ya there!

This is the rainy season in Florida. Usually the rains come over the east coast earlier in the day and can dissipate before supper. West coast gets the roll up later in the day. Hopefully Saturday is a reprieve from moisture.

Love it 🥰! Hambone’s company has to be part of the conspiracy verses all on TRD; why else would Gabe be fined $100K, and so many points whacked off the Hamcrap’s total?

Diffey is better than Allen, but not by a lot. His high tenor would be a gerbil nightmare if it were American but the down under zing will help him at least be distinctive from the other two gerbil tenors.

Disaster. Had picked Preece, then changed at last minute to Chastain. NOTE TO SELF: NEVER CHANGE A PICK LAST MINUTE UNLESS YOUR PICK SUDDENLY QUITS RACING!
