    The latest Twitter war

    The one point that Brad made that I agree on is that it seemed at the beginning of the year, when the Gibbs drivers couldn't buy a win, NASCAR was very quick to make rule change after rule change. Most of them favouring the Toyotas. This not only allowed the Gibbs cars to catch up, but also...

    Hamlin's wins at Darlington both encumbered

    Do the encumbered wins still go into the record books as wins as far as Denny's stats go?

    The Announcers Thread

    How about when they wheeled in Ken Squire and Ned Jarrett for the second stage. I think Dale was there to wipe their chins. I'm surprised they didn't start wondering where that youngster Morgan Shepherd got to.

    So who gets the 77 ride?

    So, you have a very fast car, who do you put in it? A big name driver like Kasey or Matt would cost you millions so do you go for experience or a young driver who would be happy to race for a fraction of the money.

    Does NASCAR still check horsepower?

    I know they used to take the top few cars and dyno them to try to equalize the horsepower. Do they even check anymore?

    Loose lug nuts on the 18?

    It will be $10,000 and no suspension, but when it keeps happening to the same team, (what is this for the 18 team, at least 3 or 4 times?), the fines should go up and maybe start taking points away.

    Need help attending a race

    We only do one race now and that's Las Vegas. The seats we get are right across from pit-in and we go for the stadium ones with the backs, armrests and cup holders. They are comfortable you can watch your car all the way around the track from them. There is a ton of stuff to do when you are not...

    Adam Stevens vs #78 Pit Crew

    I guess the only way Gibbs can get Kyle a win is to handicap the 78 team.
