I can’t believe they got that race in.
I’m just outside of Canton and it rained all afternoon!

Hope you had a good time.

Kyle is such a dick.

Yeah it rained briefly right after we got to the track about 1 P.M. and That was it. It got real humid leading up to the green and then the clouds took over and the rain was all around to the South of us. Had a pretty big mass from Zebulon/Barnesville/Thomaston/all the way over to Pine Mountain that was moving due north and heading straight for us but it fizzled out before it got to us. It sprinkled a little but that was it. The temps actually weren't bad w/all the rain in the area. Had a good breeze.

We got lucky. Glad to see the last race on the old surface.

Kyle is PIIIIISSSEED at Ross Chastain for running interference for his teammate to secure the win.


Yeah, you aren’t suppose to help your teammate win, you are suppose to turn them into the wall so they don’t

Eh, I'm giving Kyle a pass on Saturday. That was not intentional.

It was just nice to finally see Kurt in a car fast enough to beat his brother for a change.

And shame on Atlanta. 25 years and you are too cheap to asphalt the place.

I never been to AMS but on TV, it looks kinda rough. I wish they never changed the layout back in what the late 90’s?

The track surface is worn as all hell. It's 24 years old. It's time for a repave. The situation yesterday where there was an actual hole in the surface just exacerbates that fact.

This ain't fair IMO.

The drivers wanted the surface to be left as it is, and they took the drivers advice. But they have no choice now.

I’m just talking about his interview after the race. Blaming Chastain for not winning.
Ross did nothing wrong
Ya Kyle is Kyle but I thought he’d at least have some grace considering his brother won.

Does Kurt make it to the round of 4 in the playoffs or do you see him even making it to the round of 8?

Josh Berry is back in a JRM car in the Xfinity Series this weekend, filling in for Michael Annett in the 1 car.

The 1.5'ers always get hate but Atlanta shouldn't be lumped in with them, it been a great track with both configurations.

I saw Tony Stewart beat Jr in Spring 2002, only time I ever got to see Dick Trickle race live.

He may can win there, that would be another boost for him

He made it to the round of 8 last year so I can definitely see him getting that far. I think that's as far he gets.

The Final 4 will be both Kyles,MTJ, & Chase IMO.

The drivers are pissed about the new Atlanta configuration.
Sprung on them 3 days before the race.
Bruton Smith’s org sucks.

I hope not. Bruton Smith is an a-hole and NASCAR is run by f ups.
