Former car owner Leo Jackson passed away yesterday. He was best known for owning Harry Gant's Skoal Bandit and later the #1 car of Rick Mast. https://www.jayski.com/2023/11/08/sad-news-leo-jackson/

Freddy Smith, the dirt late model driver known as the Southern Gentleman, passed away late Saturday night. He won over 800 features in his career and won the 1996 Hav-a-Tampa Dirt Series championship.

My pick is NASCAR for holding the last caution for another lap after the race was decided. For a group that wants to promote theatrics and excitement, they blew one more chance at it.

Has to be Christopher Bell's crew. Slow stops, loose wheels, etc. that probably cost him a 2nd place finish.

I have to give it to half the Xfinity field for all those cautions in their race. It looked like a bunch of amateurs out there.

Has to be Denny Hamlin for inexplicably running into the wall and knocking himself out of the race.

I really didn't have a contender until Bubba Wallace flipped the bird on live TV.

I was all set to give it to Ty Gibbs for taking a car barely dinged up to having it towed to the garage and out of the race. But I'm not sure if it should go to Noah Gragson. Pick a fight with someone to getting punched yourself without getting in a lick. Tough call between these two.

We heard about the head injuries last season with the Gen7 car. Things have been calmer to this point. But the damage to Larson's car shows one reason why NASCAR needs a new car ASAP. They have also made these cars "spec cars" meaning just about everything on them is the same. Then people wonder...

I'm glad they eliminated the stage breaks for the road courses. The old strategy came into play yesterday. But there's one thing they need to tweak. The stage ending should take place under green, not under caution of on a restart as the was the case yesterday. As important as those points are...

Is it anyone else other than Chase Elliott? Go snowboarding in the off season, not in season.

The term podium finish has been used in F1 for years and has been in IndyCar too. Some writers, including Matt Weaver, have been using it in NASCAR and other forms of racing. After they used an actual podium last night, can we just ditch the term from racing except F1? The second and third place...

Apparently winning a Cup title get you a new head of hair or something. What's up with this?

Jr Motorsports have started 2023 with a literal bang.

Kyle Petty is right. It makes no sense for NASCAR to suspend a crew chief and crew members for 4 races for simply having a wheel come off, yet a driver intentionally wrecks another driver only gets suspended for 1 race. Intentionally wrecking another driver is far more dangerous than losing a...

No bonehead this week? I guess it's too obvious to have it this week. What a clown!

My bonehead of the week is for everyone, except for those that didn't crash. Crash fests in both races and NASCAR not being pro-active with weather approaching and allowing 20+ cars to crash on a wet track. As Ken Schrader once said, "when you hit the race track, it's your fault." So, it's...

I'm going with the NBC crew. Awful coverage today. Gilliland has problems, no follow-up as to the actual problem. A car comes out of the pits slow. It gets mentioned, but they never find our or who say who the driver was an if they had an issue or not. Chase Briscoe is seen on pit road in two...

I have to go with Denny Hamlin's tire changer/pit crew guy. The tire changer rolled the tire where it was difficult to retrieve. And the guy that stepped over the wall to get the tire. Best car all day lost of dumb pit execution.

Kyle Busch and his family were at the Mall of America last night when a shooting occurred. They made it out safely, but it's sobering out sports stars can be so close to some of these violent acts...
