Wonder what the deal is with Bowyer missing the last Fox race? All kinds of speculation.

I hardly missed Clint this weekend. Not a knock as I’ve enjoyed him at times this year and other times not so much. But the glaring thing that stood out to me was how much Larry needs to be in the booth, it’s s crime he’s not in there weekly anymore. Now I don’t know if that was a personal decision or Fox made it for him, but 22 years in…he’s still at the top of his game. I thought he was awesome Sunday.

Larry Mac adds to the race, he should be on every week.

This year since Evernham is out of it, they haven't been hyping the series on social media like they did last year for some reason. Not going to make any difference to me, but the lack of the tweets could affect the turnout track and TV.

I look forward to when Larry Mac comes on. Instead of stating the obvious of what we're already seeing, he's giving us insight on the different strategies at play as a race goes along. He talks about the advantages and disadvantages of the decisions the teams make. Unlike Steve Letarte, when asked if 2 tires or 4 tires are the way to go, and he responds with, "we'll find out at the end of the race."

They just learned to quit asking him anything lol. Burton explaining what a driver is thinking is painful

Evernham isn't with SRX anymore?? When did that happen and why!?
Edit: i just found a tweet of him saying he wasn't in charge of SRX anymore. That's too bad. But I'm excited to watch

Larry Mac has said he doesn't want to travel every week.
When did he say this because that has been said to be false within the past few years
I could do without Larry Mac in the booth.

I think it is the opposite. He didn't like the desk job back at the base

Anyone else think it would be nice to see the gap between positions on the scoring instead of time behind leader? I noticed that in the F1 races and it's kinda nice to see how close the battles are back in the pack

Ryan Preece and short tracks
No because I want to know the total time back from the leader since it's so easy to go a lap down in NASCAR. The F1 scoring is ok because so few guys go a lap down when lap times are 2 minutes+ and anyone who does go a lap down is totally irrelevant anyways

The leader board at Nascar.com shows both

About the Announcers:
Watched the race with the MUTE on 90% of the race. These NBC guys suck, yes all of them.

I love short track racing with all my heart
This 1 minute and 9 second segment offered more insight about the new wheels and lugnuts, and why there are so many problems, than Fox did in five months.

Agreed. Made Fox look really, really bad IMO.

Self-absorbed boneheads. Can't talk about the sport, so why not act like jackasses?

Seems like Fox was mailing it in this season. They go to their pit reporters less and less often each year. NBC pit reporters on Sunday provided great information. That wheel animation really showed how out to lunch Fox was this year. They loaded a few animation graphics and never updated them.
