Road courses and short tracks.
While I think the man is entitled to do some reminiscing, he's overdoing it a bit. I hope he doesn't approach the rest of the season like he's doing with Q tonight.

Newman fits in that 6.
Could win one before the season ends.

I watched the whole darn thing -- single car would be more entertaining. DW is dripping with emotion. Blaney ran himself out of the sticky line AND Chase executed when it mattered.
Did I hear "Boogity Boogity Boogity" will be from the Flag Tower this week?

Because they screwed up the track and now have to find away to race on it.

This was Smith's screw up, nothing to blame Nascar for.

Man I thought it was a big deal when they cracked broke under 15 seconds here. 14.5s now...sheeeeeeesh.
Nascar tinkers with everything, can't race a super speedway twice without tinkering with cooling area or something. Manipulation of the racing surface too.
Smith broke it and his promise to put it back if the new configuration didn't work
They had one of the biggest draws outside of Daytona and Indy and all they had to do was leave it as it was...
No can do. What was the base to build the last great colessuem wasn't good enough. By the way if you remember DW ABD Mickey were two who lobied hard for the reconfig if I recall cirrectly. They wanted to make it a driver's track.......wtf...

New track record...hoping it's not a parade on Sunday.
Depends on what mood the glue happens to be in at the time. Guys will be chasing their cars all day

The track record holder is the guy who cut the fastest ever lap during qualifying.
Perhaps some fans feel that Blaney’s lap shouldn’t count, or am I reading that wrong?

I was being facetious and I drank a bottle of Duckhorn Merlot.
Loving those first two rows
It was nice to hear Chase be honest about this one meaning more to him as the big tracks is almost all car. Great for him and his team, long overdue if you ask me.
And then the, yeah, I am actually excited as the first pit stall means a lot here.

Hendrick has brought another set of good cars it seems. Hopefully they're back on track.

Holy guacamole. Chad Kemenah took the pole at Eldora last year with a 13.8 in a sprint car. Haha these guys are absolutely booking it around here, dear lord this race should be amazing.
Just absolutely pure speed

Yeah the whole non plate pole thing has been something I've been looking forward to as a fan of his for a while, so it's interesting to actually hear how much of a big deal that was to him. I think it was at Phoenix where he first mentioned how much that was bothering him.

The way Chase closed out Watkins Glen was awesome
Looking forward to seeing his short-track run on Sunday

And we’re talking about a car with double the weight. I’ll tell ya what how they can engineer these things anymore is incredible
Fastest lap at Bristol is like a 12.7 at 150 mph

how quick it changes. Elliott into the wall, wrinkles up the rear quarter. will the fix be good enough?
