The Xfinity body rules do not suit the Camaro very well, but they REALLY don't suit the Mustang. That car looks like it was run through a press and widened out.
So worth watching again

I have nothing against Snider or Alfredo, but what have they done to deserve this ride at the Xfinity level? I looked up their stats and didn't see anything that stands out.
I agree, in Alfredo's case he had quite a few races last year in the trucks 13, and he was pretty bad. Snider bombed in a Thorsport truck and he had plenty of chances.

Just a couple of ride buyers. I think JHN would be in that car if they had more money. At least he got a Cup opportunity.

Money to keep the 21 program going and RCR in Xfinity.
Better than seeing Joe Graf DNQ in a RCR car though.
It's a sellers market.

This is one of the more impressive things I've seen a driver do at the national level recently. Surely they can at least do better than that.
Will be strange not seeing RCR with at least one entry dedicated to a single driver but Alfredo and Snider are keeping a car on the grid so I can't complain.

Sponsor money is always the reason.
After winning the 2019 rookie-of-the-year title in the NASCAR Xfinity Series, Chase Briscoe will race for an Xfinity Series championship in 2020 as he returns to Stewart-Haas Racing (SHR).

He was racing the #98 for an affiliate of SHR, Biagi DenBeste Racing. I wonder if he stays in the 98 or drives something else. I don't think they will give him the 00 number Custer was driving.
Colby Howard to drive majority of season for JD Motorsports...yeah I don't know who he is either.

I sometimes feel that even as a nearly 29 year old who has never even driven a racecar that if I showed up with enough cash I could get an Xfinity ride.
maybe he was recommended by Phil Swift
I suspect they'll need a lot more than FlexTape after he smacks the wall a few times.

A trend that is a bit discouraging to me.

Probably for the best, although in an ideal world they’d still be at IRP. Just don’t touch the Cup race.
This is going to be wild

Roger's being wasted in Indianapolis. Somebody ship him to Daytona Beach.

I didn't see this posted anywhere else. Really seems odd to me that JR would drive at Homestead.

Sounds like quite a party, what I'm excited to find out is if they are running it clockwise. I don't know why it's piqued my interest, but there is it is.
How many Cup drivers will run this one?
I think it will be just a matter of will he be the green alien or go for the big bird look
They aren't messing around, snow withstanding

Does this mean Daytona could potentially get that date back starting next year? Seems odd to me to do this for just one year.

Seems like that would be the right thing to do. Which, given NASCAR'S past is even odder.

Junior is the biggest draw for sponsors so he really does have to race each year to continue his high price deals. Besides it helps keep his siter in business.

Jeff Green is going to be back at least for Daytona and Talladega.

Brandon Brown is going to be back next year and his team will expand to 2 cars.
