I am scratching my head and really puzzled. I had Chase's in-car and he passed the 1 quite a few times and I remember thinking a lot about how bad they are struggling right now. I guess they are all on a razor's edge right now and all running so close to the same speed that one slight...

Overall uneventful but not a bad race. Nice to not see half the field wrecked. My big takeaway here is one that has been going on for a while and it's HMS sucks at working together. At the end of the first stage Chase and Larson and Byron worked well to get toward the front but then they...

You're right. What I meant was every driver will have an equal chance so was not really clear enough. I'm tired. LOL.

I'm fuzzy but I don't recall weather being an issue at Atlanta back when it was the final race....was it?

The appeal to me is that at least it will be more in the driver's hands and I won't go into the season thinking "well if ____ makes the final 4 it will be their title to lose" or the opposite of that which has been the past few years thinking if Chase or Larson make the final 4 it won't much...

Yeah - we want to go there next season but I am not thrilled with the idea of the heat in the summer. If it's not going to be the finale I'd still like to see it as a fall race.

Why not Atlanta? It hosted the championship for years and is a speedway race now similar to Talledega with maybe a little less carnage.

Man - Glad you like Phoenix but can't remember the last time I enjoyed a race there. I wish the Rock would get their spring date.

Could not agree more since my initial reaction was "well that's better than Phoenix for sure but now it's Larson's to lose." Rotating it will be good though just in the sense that one team can't just sit on being good at one place like Penske has. Curious to know what other tracks folks would...

Well if you want to look at the whole picture NASCAR has been on a bit of a comeback since the 2010's when things were probably at their worst. Now in fairness I did not research any numbers on that but just talking about the lack of buzz and empty seats at big races like Indy. 2 of my most...

Yeah - For now. It still sucks seeing what it has become compared to what it once was. Especially when NASCAR can do things to make a better product.

This was really fun to watch. Too many cautions but can't complain about the racing we did see on the longer green runs. I liked that they could race side by side and you could see them sliding around. Good stuff and I'd love to see Cup back here.

Super-bummed for him that he got caught up in that wreck. Had a fast car and easily would have been a top 5 and likely competing for the win. Sure hope he decides to do more races. Pretty amazing that he was able to come back and show speed like that after 7 years away. Was there ever an...

Kepp telling yourself whatever you need to. LOL

I can't remember what was going on with me that weekend but I just don't remember the decline in ratings being talked about. All I remember about that race in the long term was that Kyle dominated. I think I was dealing with some personal issues with my father's health at the time in fairness...

That's your best gem yet. Why would they like a fan like me who truly cares about the sport and has been watching it almost their entire life and investing money endlessly in it? I watch EVERY race, have been to 30+/- races across the top 3 series and also bUy gear and video games and so on...

If they were competing with the NFL this time of year I'd think it would be different but hey at least NASCAR is still beating the UFL......For now. LOL

If you say so. I guess that lack of concern is the same attitude NASCAR has and that's working out really well right now.

That's fair. I actually did not pay for the hotel room. My Nephew who went with us travels constantly for his job and had points he was able to use for the room so he covered that and we covered he and his wife's tickets. The interesting thing was that when we checked in the hotel told him...

I guess I did not realize the level of genius I am communicating with since you don't read but still point out where I misquote numbers. The only thing I misquoted was the rating/viewership and I owed that I just misread it. The point still stands though that it was way down from last year...
