I think there's a Cup Race too this weekend.

Go Ryan Preece!
 
I'm beginning to like Loudon. It's just a huge M'ville.
I've never been to this track but that is the same impression that I have too. Martinsville on steroids is not a bad thing IMO. Speaking of Martinsville, only 110 more days till the second race of the season! That's only 3 months 18 days but who's counting? :D

I love this race. The braking, turning, launch. Always love a technical track......
 
We've had a string of great weather! You can tell Pocono is coming up again to make sure that streak ends!
 
Damn! But, it is what it is I guess. I'd rather see him be healthy.

Prediction..... The Twitter World is about to blow up.

Its one of his better tracks which sucks, but his health is most important.

Wish the best for Bowman this weekend, this could be his moment to show what he's made of.
 
Why wouldn't he just sub-out at the first caution like Tony did at Dega? He's gonna take a big hit on points correct? With where he's sitting in the chase standings this will hurt.

I guess he sees no sense in taking chances. Can't say I blame him.

And if he slugs the wall before the first caution? Then what?
 
Or out for the rest of the season or more.

Intelligence trumps machismo. It always does.

hopes for a fair, fast, and friendly race like the coke 600 and Atlanta. Fingers crossed
 
Seems a number of cars can't pass qualifying inspection.

It's really hot up there today. Nice slick track for sure...
 
Cool to see Dibenedetto make it the second round
 
Awesome, SHR moving on to round 3

Doc won't clear him to race I believe.
