God almighty the announcers are absolutely horrible. Muted my TV after about 15 laps.
Fox is garbage
They decided to do “crank it up” when Harvick was walking down, and then passing, Larson for the lead

Danica is garbage! She’s inexperienced and only up there because of diversity. Heck, Owen Wilson who voiced Lightning McQueen would be more insightful in the booth.

That's a little strong. Danica gives good info but her delivery needs work.

Nascar had another quick trigger yellow at the end. Seems every week a backmarker gets the call to cause one. 3 races had sure wins changed due to yellows.
That wheel that came apart they held him 2 laps for wheel coming off. Yet telecast said half the wheel was still on so what gives? Can’t be a loose lug if the wheel was faulty can it?
Harvick was way calmer than I expected in post race. He also mentioned its easier to be on offense to make radical pit calls so why didn’t his crew do it and take charge? Had he taken 2 he gets out first regardless what others do. I fault crew chief in that one. He likely thought most would take 4 but end if races always draws 2 tire calls and I’m surprised he didn’t assume that ahead.
MJ racing has to be happy to actually have a real driver now. Bubba way in the back while Reddick takes same equipmemt and gets 3rd.
Noticed the Atlanta ad pic and WTF do they include Bubba in these promos when he’s a backmarker? Well, we all know why and its why I hate any major network telecast of any kind.
Wonder what penalties HMS will get this week? Need more info, I did read Nascar knows there is a problem with the vents fitting properly yet told teams not to mess with them. Did HMS adjust them to fit better yet not provide advantage? Seems strange nascar knows about it yet offered no solutions. HMS cars all finished in top 10.
Noticed a late comment on telecast long after ending where Hamlin ran Chastain into wall. Didn’t talk much about it but thats a stewpot still waiting to blow between those 2.
Blaney just can’t win. Seems like a Kasey Kane clone to me. Good guy but just can’t win consistently.

She is horrible and is just filling another diversity hire. I’d rather just have 2 in booth than her. She is clueless half the time and interupting the other half.

Pretty sure Kyle Petty feels the same way.

She has more insight than Clint.
He backed off on “hot rod” this week and switched to “elbows out.”
At least he had enough sense to interrupt “crank it up” as Harvick passed Larson.
Does anyone actually like crank it up? It seems stupid to me.

Like I said last week, this place bitches more than PMS'ing women.

I like Clint he’s a car guy. Its a car race and he fits with racing. Danica is just clutter. She tries to act smart but isn’t. She is there soley to to help nascar pull in women viewers.
What about Kurt Busch? He was on nhra today why not bring him in? He knows car racing.

I think it’s stupid that during crank it up they take the leaderboard off the side of the screen

Yeah, agreed. The pit reporter tried saying it was too late to call an audible when they realized everyone else was taking 2. But 4 shouldn’t have been the call in the first place. You have Harvick running first at Phoenix. Get him back out there and let him do his thing.

I'm admittedly a Blaney fan, and he does need to win more, but the Kahne comparisons are a little premature IMO. He already has as many playoff appearances as Kahne (even if he backdoored his way in last year), and twice as many top-10 points finishes. And he's not even 30 yet.

I would rather listen to crank it up than the talking heads. We could see Harvick passing Larsen. They did not need to interrupt it.

Since you muted it 15 laps in, it doesn’t matter either way.
I picture mullets, cars on blocks in a trailer park when they go to Crank it Up. Yee haw! Haha!

I'm enjoying Denny's podcast it is very insightful but not hooky like DBC. I would prefer if he got rid of the dumb Ask Denny intro. With him admitting to wreaking Ross I will be interested to see if NASCAR fines him, granted I don't think they will as it wasn't obvious when the noose did it.

He's been on promos for at least two if not three years now. fricking ridiculous.

Parts don't fit but you can't modify them. Yet more Nascar ridiculousness. It's basically IROC anymore.

I've been tired of Chastain's schtick since his first watermelon. Saying that, I'd pay to watch him put Hamlin through the wall.
Not over it. Through it.

I listen to his podcast. Denny is weird as shite.
I agree that he’s insightful, good for the sport, knows what needs to be done to improve the on track product, etc.
He’s also a total bitch, unlikeable as a person, and a total bitch.
I also find it weird how he treats his lackey’s. They were talking a couple weeks ago how he basically paid some dude in his crew of hanger on’s to be the object of a airsoft firing squad. He used the term “hella construction” when talking about his house remodel. Talked about how he can beat any of his “friends” in pickle ball. And he sounds like a degenerate gambler.
Also, total bitch.
