I think there are a lot of NASCAR fans that are going to silently root for #17 to get their win this season.

Overall great racing, especially at the end. Puts F1 to shame.

If Brad doesn't continually put Reddick in the wall, Beuscher doesn't get the lead.

You don't have Reddick and Buescher getting together.. I don't think BK wins. He was a 3rd or 4th place car overall. But.. as I said above.. you keep putting yourself in those situations, the wins will come. I think both Reddick and Buescher were either better or at least equal to Brad and the same with Ty Gibbs.


That kid has to be on the win watch.. Every race but 2 this year, he's improved on his result from last year.

SHR.. at least Berry and Briscoe had good runs. Overall, a good day for them, all cars in the top 17. Probably the best they've done in quite some time.

For Chase Elliott to finish 12th.. That was good fortune. He looked poised for a bad finish early on.
Yep, I've been saying it since Beuscher's success last season... It was only a matter of time. My comment was more to the point of, all the Ford teams and drivers, Keselowski probably not the betting favorite to give Ford their first win. I'm glad he did and love seeing the resurgence and BK's work at Roush paying off. Beuscher has become one of my favorite drivers.
Also love seeing Josh Berry have some improvement... Just good to see these other Ford Teams beating Penske. Even Michael McDowell, speaking of which is moving to a Chevy with Spire next year ?

The are other Ford drivers that have won more than BK in the past two years, Brad is still a very good driver and at his peak of his career right now. Hopefully for him and his team, the flood gate has opened and Brad can be a real contender in the playoffs.

Silly Season
If half the rumors are real, shaping up to be a lot of moving parts ...

Kaulig has shot down the rumors that they're planning on merging.. I forget who it was rumored they'd merge with.. But, their expansion to Cup has not gone overly well.


They've won.. But.. Road courses with AJ.. I mean, anyone has a good shot on a road course with AJ. It's really hurt their Xfinity program as well.

The nostalgia of having the All-Star race at North Wilkesboro is great, but the product on the track has been terrible. Kyle Larson led 145 of 200 laps last year, and Joey Logano led all but one lap this year. They've got to do something to make this race more competitive, or the novelty is going to wear off quickly. Even the dust up after the race between Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Kyle Busch was lame.

I'd say it was better this year, simply because you saw side by side racing.. But.. You just couldn't pull off the pass.

No passes for the lead in either race. The open or the challenge.

Well now we know the real reason Teams are hiring ex footbal players for their Pit crewman.
Does Rickys Dad get the boot from the garage now? Saw one still where it looked like KB connected pretty good on his jaw.
Can Andy Petrie get anymore stoic?
