Another great win by Kyle Busch.

Three in a row.

Eight 2nd place finishes for Chase in the 9 now.

Same as his Dad before he finally won one.

Matt Kenseth will share the No. 6 Ford for the remainder of the 2018 season with Trevor Bayne, who has driven the car on a full-time basis since 2015 but will now move to part-time status. Roush Fenway will announce the news at a press conference scheduled for Wednesday at the NASCAR Hall of Fame in Charlotte, N.C. .... his first race is slated to be at Kansas

Jamie McMurray’s No. 1 Chevrolet took one heck of a tumble during practice today .... he says he's OK .... sure glad to hear it because as can be seen in the link below, it could have really been bad ... NASCAR reacted almost instantly to slow'um down

Yeah, great win for Gallagher.

You would think Nascar would have let that penalty go for Sadler. He was only trying to avoid the 42 on pit road, but they hit him with a Speeding Penalty any way. He still rallied back for a 5th place finish and won the Dash 4 Cash to boot.

without a doubt, Sadler had the best car on the track .... to come from the rear twice and finish were he did, his team had the best driver on the track as well

It did look like a pretty good turn out. I like what one of the commentators said: "Beautiful weather and about time".

Paul Menard was having a great day till Johnson spun causing the big one that also took out the 21.

Another good plate track finish for David Ragan finishing 6th.
