I just wish the 10 car stayed where he was at and they just could have raced it out.

Pretty good day for Bubba (2nd), Buescher (5th), Menard (6th) and McDowell (9th).

Almirola ended up 11th.
I didn't like the way it went down at first, being a Ford enthusiast and all.

But later I felt differently. If the Camaro was faster you got to let him by. This is a really close one, but like someone said, "block at your own risk".

seeing the 43 on a Chevy is going to take some getting used to .. ;) .. it was good to see cars able to pass on a restrictor plate track

Yeah. It would have been much better if Dillon would have raced him clean.

At that stage of the race they better make sure they are clear when they through a block. No one is going to back out of it and if you aren't going fast enough you just get run over.

Yeah, hope they can get it going, but a rain delay only means a better Pre-Race Show.

And so far, it's been pretty good.

I loved the clip they played of Tony.

Green Flag .... Newman is off to a great start .... hope they get the complete race in .... projecting 10 or more pit stops .... with the reduction in the number of the over the wall pit crew, it should be interesting

certainly not a thrill a minute but a very solid performance by Harvick and SHR .... 36 cars in the starting field, I wonder if that is going to hold throughout the season
