2017 NASCAR Xfinity Cup Series Race Seventeen Loudon

I always enjoy hearing the Canadian National anthem. The singers tend to do a better job with it than the majority of the Americans with the Star Spangled Banner.

Caution at lap 29 of 200 as David Starr hits the wall.

It’s been sprinkling at the track for a few laps.

They’re bringing the cars down pit road as the rain gets heavier. The race is red flagged at lap 31.

Ryan Preece is running the Xfinity race after running the Whelen Modifed race which occurred just before the Xfinity race.

The sun is out. The track is dry. The cars are rolling after about an hour’s rain delay.

Restarting on lap 35 of 200.

Ryan Preece is driving for JGR. After running for an ‘under-funded’ team last season he wanted to be in a competitve car this season. From the talk it appears he turned down some other non-competitve cars for await an opportunity like the JGR offer. He will run one additional race in that car this season.

Cars are rolling around the track.

Brad ‘It’ Keselowski got busted for something on pit road while leading the race and had to serve a pass-thru penalty.

Justin ‘Dewy Alligator’ Allgaier had transmission issues. Had to go in for a repair and came back out 28 laps down.

KyBu wins

Great going Ryan Preece on the second place finish.

Nice job William Byron on the third place finish.

Way to go Ben Kennedy who was the last car on the lead lap with his sixth place finish.

Boring race overall. The leaders stayed so far ahead of the rest of the field.
