this is Brads' contract year. No talks so far. Can't see Roger letting him go, but never know where moneys' involved.
as usual, much will depend on his sponsors .... do their loyalties lie with Brad or Roger .. :?: .. recent example, Aric Almirola got the 10 car because he could bring Smithfield with him as a sponsor

Well, didn't get to see the race,but did get a video clip of the finish. G;ad to see Brad win, tough about Joey & Chase, good to see
Clint back up front again. Best part was Kyle didn't win. Now he can whine all week. ( Sorry RP, just can't stand the guy )
And yes, this is Brads' contract year. No talks so far. Can't see Roger letting him go, but never know where moneys' involved.
No problem buddy. ;) Everybody likes who they like, and I don't watch like I used to.
used to never miss a race, now I hardly ever watch one.
Can find other things more fun than sitting in front of a TV when it's as pretty as it was here yesterday.
Got out and rode scooters all afternoon with a stop or two for refreshments.
Saw a couple laps and Denny was leading with Kyle second, but I couldn't even tell ya what lap that was. :lol:
Just like his ability in the car, kinda like ole Big E, he can do things with it that most never will.
But I was never an Earnhardt fan, but the man could sure drive the wheels off of one.
Like Harvick, he's a driver. Saw him put on a Hell of a show in Memphis years ago in whatever it was before it was the Exfinitey series.

Started on the outside pole, said he jumped the start and they put him at the back.
Came back and Spanked the field.

Like someone said the racing is so boring now, not much passing, and that stage crap is a bunch of BS.

That's true. Lots of fingers in the pie. Guess we'll have to wait
till all the marbles are counted. Of course, silly season is always
a hoot.

Still a fan and still watching.

To me Dale and Kyle were similar in another way.

I didn't like either one in the beginning, but later on in time I became a solid fan of both.

And it's true, both Dale could and Kyle can, drive the wheels off a car.

Big news of the day: NASCAR Cup coming to Nashville Superspeedway outside of Nashville in Wilson Co.
NASCAR was there several yrs. ago, not in Cup, but Xfinity, and Indy. Low attendance caused it to pull up stakes, vowed not to return.
Why they thought it would work now, is above my pay grade.
Stay tuned, as they say........

Hey Grunt, if no one is allowed to attend, that won't count against it. :o
I like that track, the first year they opened it I went to every race they had.
It's half the size of Talladega.
That Indy race was a hoot, by the end I believe there were only a couple cars on the lead lap.

if as I've seen reported, the race will be of Cup cars and will replace one of the two races at Dover .... at most tracks, the Cup races drastically out draw fans than those of the Xvinity races .... it will most certainly be interesting to see how it goes

You are correct JB, Cup draws the bigger crowds, and this one would replace one of the Dover races. I have no idea how this will work out. Interesting, it will be.

Saw on a news feed, Nashville Cup race to be in late June, 2021.
Subject to change I suppose.

I gave up trying to remember the names long ago. All I look for now is whether the name ends in cup or series.
But I do still call the exfinity Busch.
Load on Sunday and Shoot all Week.......okay it's a Mare's Leg I will reload on Wednesday. ;)

I also call it the Busch series, lol.

Cup for Cup and Busch for Xfinity.

And Truck for Gander.

Not only is it easier, but for reasons that I'm not allowed to comment on here.

Back to Atlanta, old track, rough surface. Hard on tires.

Wow, once Harvick got the lead later in the race, that dude was gone! Truex had a very good car, just couldn't get around that #4 car. Good clean race today. And now, Martinsville Wed. Stand by!
