Glory Hallelujah, the Xfinity Race is on FOX so we can actually watch it – instead of Championship Darts! Starting with a wreck on lap two the race at Talladega has been a bit of a mess. After a couple of early cautions, the field settled into single file racing for a while, then the chaos revved up again.

Later in the race on lap 73 of 113 a big wreck resulted from people slowing up to go to the pits and getting run over by people behind them. During the melee Brendan Gaughan hit the pit wall and injured two pit crew members of Aric Almirola’s 98 team. One was taken to the infield care center, the other has been transported to a local hospital. Continue reading “2015 NASCAR Xfinity Race Nine Talladega”

It’s raining in Bristol. They’re doing a few features and driver interviews during the rain delay. The race was renamed in honor of Steve Byrnes to the “FOOD CITY 500 IN SUPPORT OF STEVE BYRNES AND STAND UP TO CANCER“. Get well Byrnesy!!! We miss you desperately. Your professionalism, talent, skills and fun are unmatched leaving NASCAR programming lacking. It was lovely to see all the crews holding up signs that read ‘I Stand Up For Steve‘.

The Gordon kids, Ella and Leo, gave the command to start engines standing next to their Papa’s car. It was sweet. Continue reading “2015 NASCAR Sprint Cup Race Eight Bristol”

So, Texas tonight after a weekend off. The Easter break always seems to come too quickly too me – too early in the season to be taking a break. Happy Birthday Kasey Kahne. Kasey turned 35 Friday. Get well Steve Byrnes. Byrnsey was released from ICU. He’s dealing with pneumonia and blood clots on top of everything else. Sigh. Michael Waltrip is wasting time with his stupid track walk or whatever its called. I don’t understand why it continues, but then again I don’t get why he still has a job doing anything broadcast related at this point. The only entertaining part of that is when the drivers are honest with him and call him on his stupidity. It’s ridiculous. No More Michael Waltrip PLEASE!!!
