Overall that was fun even though it was boring. Great to have DW, Mike, and Larry in the booth and be back at this track. I'm a sucker for nostalgia

Has to be so weird to kiss your wife, open your eyes, and see Brad Sweet with long hair.

Yeah, me, too. Especially since I remember most of what happened "way back when". *sigh*

Disappointed in the 29 car, no point in bringing it back for that performance.
This place is awesome, put it on the schedule! Trying to manipulate excitement rarely works and it didn't tonight but It could just as easily been beating and banging to the checker.

Problem is nostalgia alone has a short shelf life and unless NASCAR can fix the short track package, NWS may find it's revival not lasting long.

Brad Sweet is a nice looking young man.

Larson is just pretty damn good.
Please make this a 500-lap race when it becomes a points race.

Reddick said we could kinda stay in touch. He was 7 seconds behind lol.

As mentioned earlier, this race could've played out much differently without the fabricated caution at the midway point

This car fixed the mile and a half tracks and absolutely ruined EVERYTHING else

On the edge of your seat for weeks ready to use that one. Not bad.

Track good.
Tire fall off good.
Car needs work.
It was a clinic by Larson, but the car needs work.

I was looking at the results at NASCAR.com ---- the list doesn't include Josh Berry or Ty Gibbs. ???

I posted the results from Nascar.com above. They were on there when I posted it here.

I'm curious to see what will happen next year in terms of changes. It's just smaller, nibbling things that is holding the car back.
I don't work at the R&D center though, I trust those men and women will find solutions.

Yeah I posted a clip of Harvick talking about the car. He said he has never seen the level of input from the drivers that they have now. It's good. Changes take longer though with teams not being able to fix things quick with the setup they have now.
I'm sure they were. But right now, there is no 9th or 15th place listed. Maybe I'm nuts.I posted the results from Nascar.com above. They were on there when I posted it here.

NASCAR needs a driver's union
If NASCAR finds that Larson was cheated up in post-race and Bubba gets the win...
Might be time to delete Facebook and Twitter.

I like Larson and Bubba. Neither result upsets me. But if HMS cheats then he’ll yes I want them to lose (not that they really would because NASCAR). As long as it isn’t Briscoe, Busch, or Byron I can sleep at night.

The much softer “wet weather” tires would have been a better choice.
No, I’m not kidding.

Well that was damn cool. Probably one of the coolest experiences racing wise I’ve ever been to. I’m bummed I didn’t get to take many pictures, my phone battery has been funky this weekend. A huge wrong has been righted with Cup coming back here and I’m humbled I got to see it. Of course you log on here and see the “Muh Entertainment!!!” Crew out in full force.

They have settled their ilk on the car this week.
