Truck HEAT RACES thread --- Bristol

Hailie Deegan is turning her entire career around right now.

This is the best possible thing in the past 15 years for the sport.
 
Confidence is important. If Hailie is confident and can be more aggressive, she will improve.

It helps that she can see out of the truck this year.
 
The track looks good. This is awesome watching the trucks sliding side by side.
 
Darling Bride asked if I am enjoying this.

Good question. At least we finally ran 15 laps without a caution or tire issue.
 
Great.

Perhaps you overstate the significance of a second place finish in a 15 lap heat race.
On a surface the series only runs twice a year.

In 51 starts, she has 4 top 10s. She finishes off the lead lap half the time, and DNFs 20%. She averages finishing 21st, two spots behind where she starts.

We looked it so you won't have to.
 
Hailie isn’t turning it around yet because she’s always been a dirt car driver. Avoiding wrecks is a good start.
