This is Noah&#8217;s sixth win of the season.<\/p>\n<p>Ryan Sieg (39) secures the final position in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>AJ Allmendinger (16) is the regular season champion.<\/p>\n<p>Not particularly interesting event to watch or to listen to. I spent a lot of the time watching the movie Broken Bridges with Toby Keith, Kelly Preston, Burt Reynolds. I enjoy that schmaltzy movie. Then I switched between the race video &#8211; I listened to the PRN audio because the NBC Xfinity and Cup series race broadcasts are just awful. Noah got out of the car with a big stain on the left leg of his white firesuit pants. He needs to wear some other color. Jr was in the booth hooting about Noah &#8216;already threw up&#8217;. The ever-tacky Dave Burns was consistently referencing his staying at a difference from Noah due to his penchant for throwing up after races. Noah proceeded to throw up a few times on camera before shooting a beer handed to him with the checkered flag. He also went with an exclamation of &#8216;Holy Shit!&#8217; while talking about the crowd at Bristol. His last win at Bristol was in 2020 during covid-19, so he won without a crowd in the grandstands. Noah is, once again, not ready for television. He used to be the same, then he cleaned up his act and began to act like a race car driver on television. For some reason, as this season has progressed he&#8217;s become less and less tv appropriate.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Motorsport News:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jayski.com\/2022\/09\/15\/ty-majeski-claims-championship-4-nascar-truck-series-berth-with-first-career-win\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ty Majeski claims Championship 4 NASCAR Truck Series berth with first career win<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jayski.com\/2022\/09\/16\/kyle-larson-inks-contract-extension-with-hendrick-motorsports-through-2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kyle Larson Inks Contract Extension with Hendrick Motorsports Through 2026<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jayski.com\/2022\/09\/16\/petty-gms-racing-to-use-joe-gibbs-racing-pit-crew-members-next-season\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Petty GMS Racing to Use Joe Gibbs Racing Pit Crew Members next season<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.jayski.com\/2022\/09\/16\/aric-almirola-nips-chase-briscoe-for-bristol-night-race-pole-bristol-weekend-notebook\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Aric Almirola nips Chase Briscoe for Bristol Night Race pole;
