Sawalich's mother was great on the pit box today.

Good race. :) And a first time winner.
Wish I could have seen it in normal broadcast instead of the Battlecam. When it was over the only camera showed Sawalich get out of his car and shortly after he took his helmet off, it panned over to Gray getting in Kvapils face over something and stayed there until the broadcast ended. Kvapil just shrugged his shoulders at Grays finger pointing......lol. But with the crap coverage I was getting, I have no idea what happened between them.

I'm no Toyota fan, but congrats to the kid for his first time win.
 
Rating the trifecta, I think the O'Reilly race was the best followed by the ARCA and then the Trucks.

Both the trucks and ARCA were pretty much snoozers except for the late charge by the 11 in trucks that was symied by a lapper. Neither series seems to have the tight competition they should have, especially ARCA. The qualifying and practice was 30 mph difference between 1st and 20th. That is a HUGE difference in track times and no wonder with still 90 laps to go the 12 place car was 3 laps down.
 
That Cletus guy is sure getting a lot of attention. I never even heard of him until a couple of weeks ago. Was looking for him on the ARCA leaderboard when they said he was in 4th but couldn't find his name anywhere on the rundown. Did a search on him and found his real last name is Mitchell, which is what they were showing in 4th.
 
In his interview, that guy was definitely stoked after his top five in ARCA.

Internet personalities do nothing for me but good on him for bringing more fans to the sport.
 
He finished the 400 lap event 6 laps behind the car in 21st position.

If he aspires to be the last car on the lead lap, he’s got some work to do.
