Thanks for being apart of it. Glad it's gotten some popularity so far, not many people left out there to talk NASCAR with.

The portions of the Dale Jr Download podcasts they put on Youtube are enjoyable to watch. Most of them have good stories on Dale, feuds with other drivers, and family background info.

Chase accepts the Kyle Busch bounty challenge

Auto Club this weekend, no trucks, Xfinity at 3pm ct, Cup at 2:30pm ct. Forecast not looking good for Sunday's race but I'm no weatherman.

My picks: Xfinity - Briscoe goes back-to-back, Cup - Jimmie Johnson

Man Jimmie winning in Fontana in his final year would be awesome

Very uneventful race today. Bowman's car was super strong today and he pretty much did what he wanted and ran away with it.

Harrison Burton got his 1st career victory in Xfinity while Bowman won his 2nd career race in Cup.

Overall, I thought the Cup race was pretty entertaining. Restarts were great, good battles for the lead, mutli-groove race track, incredible tire fall-off, and no gimmicky debris cautions to bunch the field back up. Bowman and Blaney were definitely the class of the field all weekend, and it's good to occasionally see the best car win the race.

My one issue was the speeds at the end of the straightaways were only ~180mph, and they went flat out all the way around. This package doesn't really allow the best drivers to stand out as there's no throttle management which leads to the best car being untouchable.

On to Phoenix, which is probably the race I've been looking forward to the least after last year. Will be interesting though as it will host the season finale in November.

Phoenix this weekend. Xfinity 3pm Saturday, Cup 2:30pm Sunday.

Give me Kyle Busch in Xfinity and Elliott in Cup.

My prediction, Truex will have better luck this week, hopefully

Pitbull and Blake Shelton on the same stage? haha

Pretty good racing today, the tire and package they brought was decent, and loads better than Phoenix in November

Alright, maybe next race Truex will have better luck

We're still racing boys. See you Saturday

Nevermind

Now I have to spend my weekend afternoons outdoors around people...

always looked forward to my recliner and NASCAR on Sundays. Guess it'll do yardwork

Postponed until at least May 9th with a return at Martinsville.
Races postponed Atlanta, Miami, Texas, Bristol, Richmond, Talladega, Dover.

Guess I missed the race tonight, Jr and Kyle Busch are racing in the eNascar/iRacing series during the break in on-track racing

Not gonna lie, was on the edge of my seat for the final few laps. Great racing by Hamlin and Jr. Really cool for NASCAR to put this on

I hope they do more, I know that Indycar is doing the same soon I read I think on NBC sports

Sadly, I thought the Iracing today was a better show than NASCAR has been in a long time.

another fantastic race today. They reduced the number of resets to one per driver, and you could tell some guys put in the hours this week.

next up bristol, and then talladega i think? going to be interesting to see how those two play out in iRacing

Son was bummed out...we were scheduled to go to our first NASCAR race this past weekend and it couldn't happen. **Hopefully** it can get rescheduled later this year.

Kyle Larson suspended without pay for using a racial slur.

Hope Kyle has managed his money. I'd guess he's done for good. Sponsors aren't going to go near him after that one

Really sad to see him go down this way. Ganassi, NASCAR, and Chevy already have suspended him, with Chevy's seeming the most severe. I'm sure McDonald's won't go near him anymore.

Maybe he'll get to go race full-time on dirt like he's always wanted to, but no doubt he wanted a few more years in NASCAR, especially from a financial perspective.
