I miss Trackside so much.

I missed the majority of the 600 (only caught the end). What happened to him?

Look, NASCAR and consistency have never really gone hand in hand...

Agreed. They already lost him for how many weeks due to his injury, so there's no way they're parking him in addition to that. If asked why Bubba was parked and Chase wasn't, they'll probably say Bubba was parked due to the physical escalation aspect of his situation.

Don't forget [insert Toyota driver/CC here] Appreciation Thread

That's what everybody wants but it ain't happening. NASCAR isn't even guaranteeing to the teams that the charters are permanent yet. If Junior and Kelly haven't already bought them then they aren't going to this year either because negotiations between NASCAR and the teams are still on-going.

Nobody is reporting it as a done deal yet but there's lots of smoke around that fire...

He doesn't necessarily have lots of setup data. They can be using his feedback about how the car drives and tweaking on it, but without disclosing the exact changes.

Exactly. They still need to keep NAPA and Ally happy. It's tough enough to break the news to a couple of your largest partners that their star brand ambassadors will be out of the car, so the best you can do is put your most talented second-stringer in their seat to salvage the situation as much...

They tried, that was the plan. He was supposed to be in the 22 Xfinity car last year but then Brad had announced he was leaving, so Cindric got the 2 and then Burton got pushed to the 21 Cup deal.

I've been a Chastain fan for a few years now, but I just watched the replay (I missed the race) and that seemed completely pointless.

Same, but the DEX Imaging money might be too good to let him go.

Growth through an additional car for an existing Toyota team, or in the form of a new team to the TRD fold altogether?

Wait, is Harrison officially out of the 21 at seasons end?

I'm out right now, who spun?

Saturday afternoon wrecking was more like it. Some of those blocks were just, wow. So that's the second best level of stockcar racing in the world...

That she can be a pay driver either way? If you follow then as closely as you claim, then you'd know Brian has clearly stated that they don't have the self-funding available to keep the NASCAR career going on their own.

Brian Deegan has a big ass house. What does that have to do with her lack of NASCAR success?

On the retirement run? He won a race like six weeks ago.
