10 - total redemption for Martinsville not delivering the way it usually does. Another short track this weekend, then local bullring racing starts the week after! Things are getting exciting
10. It is races like this that remind me of why I came a fan to begin with. It is a shame that more people didn't get to see this race live and from home as it will be top 5 if not top 1 for the year.
The racing and action was fantastic! Having it run over the course of two days in crappy weather took away from it being a 10. Bristol and Atlanta have easily been the two best races this year imo.
Outstanding on every level. Even Fox's horrendous production couldn't mar the fantastic racing we saw. It's shame a packed house wasn't there to see it.
9. A classic Bristol race, as good as it gets on a paved half mile. Six short track races is the perfect amount for Cup.
OMG, Blaney is a beast. He wheels it every week. Pity he got Bayne'd yesterday. Kez was great *almost* all day.. He needed to pit at the rain delay with 100 to go. He couldn't win without tires and a chassis adjustment, so that should have made the decision easy.
9.5. Good runs by Stenhouse, Bowman, and Wallace. Great long green run to start the third stage. Well-executed 'bump and runs' that moved cars without spinning them out. Pit and tire strategies. Only yesterday's laps kept me from giving this a 10.
If you didn't like that, I don't think you're going to like much about this sport.
