Crazy turn of events in that second OT. I wonder what was dragging on the 7

JFC, what did I watch. Very few cars left running. Nascar did good on not throwing cautions for some sketchy wrecks then throws the flag for nothing twice in a row stage 3. This bunches cars up for a wreck fest, and drivers obliged. It was semi-exciting but I wanted some green flag racing and we got very little in last stage. 4 hour race.

What was Algier dragging? That looked cool on TV with sparks hitting car behind him.

All the back-markers scored best finishes of year with all the attrition.

Heartbreak for Brennan Poole. He thought he was back in the DC Solar days for a minute there.

He sure didn’t keep lead long but at least took out another car with him

That’s rough. Last night’s race would’ve seen some longer green flag runs and been a lot better had Jordan Anderson ran his race team instead of getting in the 32 and if Jr. had picked anyone else besides Jake Finch.

WTF is with the Sunday night races on a non holiday weekend?

This HAS to be hurting viewership.


NASCAR stepping on their own dick again..

So in last night's Oreilly race HALF of the laps were ran under caution. Am I reading that correctly?

They play NFL on Sun nights, Mon nights and Thu nights.

I think Nascar does nights partly due to heat of summer. NOAP is the better racing mostly, but Atlanta usually has good cup races. Its pack racing but they can move more than Daytona or Dega.

Walked around the trailers and didn’t see any drivers. The rain is close and predicted to be gone by 4. Gonna chill and go into the track around 5. We’ve never been here and I’m definitely anticipating a good race.
